The Taylor Swift Holiday Collection - EP

The Taylor Swift Holiday Collection EP, originally titled Sounds of the Season: The Taylor Swift Holiday Collection, is the first, and currently the only Christmas collection released by Swift. It was Taylor’s second release at the time, hitting stores a year after her 2006 self titled debut. The EP contains four covers with a country-pop twinge, as well as two original tracks, both receiving favorable critical acclaim. It was originally released as a Target US store exclusive, but was later re-released in 2009 to a wider market, including alternate cover art and availability on iTunes. The EP debuted at number eighty-eight on the Billboard 200, and following its re-release, re-entered the Billboard 200 at number twenty, its peak. It stayed on the chart for twenty-four weeks.
