My Gift to You is the first and only Christmas album by American recording artist Alexander O'Neal. It was originally released in 1988, on the label Tabu.
On release, the album was received favorably by the majority of music critics. However it wasn't very successful peaking at No. 149 on the Billboard 200 and reached No. 54 on Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums. The album only launched one charting single in the UK. "The Christmas Song"/"Thank You for a Good Year" which peaked at No. 30 on the UK Singles Chart.
In a retrospective review, Jason Ankeny of AllMusic gave the album three out of five stars and wrote that "My Gift to You is plainly a product of its era, complete with thick synthesizers and programmed rhythms, and is best enjoyed by listeners still hoping Santa brings them acid-washed jeans and Members Only jackets regardless of the year in question."
All tracks written by James Harris and Terry Lewis, except where noted.
