Snowed In

CD Count: 9

Jump To: Retail CDs Promotional CDs Bootlegs?

Snowed In continues the time-honored tradition of Christmas albums by big-name pop acts, combining holiday-themed originals with familiar standards. This one's a cut above standard Yuletide fare, boasting the same tuneful effervescence that sets Hanson apart from standard-issue teen idols. --Scott Schinder, Amazon.com

Snowed In was released in late 1997 as a follow-up to Middle of Nowhere. The album did very well for a Christmas release, selling over two million copies in the United States alone. In 2004, Universal Records re-released Snowed In as a part of their 20th Century Masters Christmas Collection. The release came as a suprise to many, but it brought Hanson's Christmas music back into the spotlight.

# 314 536 717-2  

Standard, 11-track release. The CD is a color picture disc of Hanson laying in the snow.
Brazil
# 314 536 717-2  

Very rare Brazilian edition of Snowed In - the CD is black and white, not color like other releases.
Japan
# PHCR-5006

Unique Japanese release which includes two bonus tracks, MMMBop (live) and Madeline (live), a Japanese lyric booklet [pictured], and a 1998 sticker calendar. The CD art is not Hanson lying in the snow; instead, miniature snow flakes cover the CD. This release has always been one of my favorites, probably because the cover art is so unique. I think it's better than the US version. :-)
Taiwan
# 314 536 717-2

Taiwan release - comes with a bonus 1998 calendar and 6 stickers.

Japanese "rental"/promo version of Snowed In - this copy is almost identical to the edition below except it does not come with a 1998 sticker calendar. The CD art is different than the retail release - it is gray with white snowflakes and "Hanson Snowed In" is written in bright pink text.

China

Very rare Chinese release! The CD case opens the reverse way than a normal case (the spine is on the right, not the left). There is a picture disc, and the booklet is very glossy - it has a very different layout than any other booklet.

At the bottom of the CD, it says "CD-499" - I don't know if it is a limited edition? Also, the CD has a gold backing - not silver like regular CDs.
