Thanks to a fortuitous intersection of talent and fate, 22-year-old Josh Groban hasn't finished his senior year in performing arts school but has already released his sophomore effort on a major major label. Fans of the young vocal phenom's debut will find much to enthrall them here, even if it nudges the singer closer to the center of producer/mentor David Foster's MOR pop sensibilities. Eschewing much of its predecessor's more overt classic-lite pretensions and pop-rock covers for a slate of dramatic, Eurocentric ballads that serve as a showcase for the singer's inviting baritone, Groban shrewdly positions himself as the American alternative to the Bocelli-Watson crossover axis. "Caruso" may find the singer falling short of its operatic inspiration, but "Oceano" and "My Confession" quickly showcase his true dramatic range (which seems to all but yearn for a bona fide Broadway musical challenge), while a vocal take of Bacalov's graceful "Il Postino" theme uses classical virtuoso Joshua Bell's violin flourishes to good effect. To his credit, Groban displays some promising efforts at songwriting collaboration on the bittersweet "Per Te" and "Remember When It Rains," while the ambient/ethnic soundscape of Deep Forest's "Never Let Go" offers a teasing alternative to the record's otherwise melodramatic production formula. Groban has found commercial triumph via Foster's mentoring, but there remains a nagging sense here that he hasn't truly pushed himself as an artist--yet. --Jerry McCulley

A Heavenly Voice.......2007-07-31

I had never heard of Josh Groban until one night I was looking at the
PBS series, "Distant Shores" with Peter Davison and this backgroun music came up. I had to search for the voice and the composer. It took me awhile to find Josh Groban. I am very old(veery!), studied music for years and he has one of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard.
From such a young man it seems unbelievable. He reminds me of beautiful voices of yesteryear- a pleasure to remember.

Beautiful Soul.......2007-07-13

Josh Groban is such a wonderful and soothing artist. If you are in need of meditative 'deliciousness' buy this album!

Happy listening.......2007-06-27

A wonderful music CD with one of the best voices in the world today.The bonus "you raise me up"makes it a must have CD.

There are worse things in life than making your acting debut on the much ballyhooed season finale of Ally McBeal, though teen operatic baritone Josh Groban doesn't seem destined to encounter them anytime soon. As the awkward high school student-client who asks the typically romance-jinxed Ally to his senior prom, Groban performed this debut album's "You're Still You" (adapted from film-composing legend Ennio Morricone's Academy Award-nominated score for Malèna, with lyrics by Linda Thompson) as a heart-tugging, literal showstopper. The young phenom was just 17 when veteran producer-writer David Foster tapped him to fill in for Andrea Bocelli at rehearsals for the 1999 Grammys, where Groban found himself suddenly dueting with Celine Dion.

Indeed, such were his fortunes that the young Foster protégé was forced to drop out of Carnegie Mellon when professional commitments--including this record--interfered. And if this collection tends to hew sometimes uncomfortably close to Foster's own MOR sonic instincts, the material offers enough challenges to display Groban's talent and the potential of his warm, mature voice: a lyrical take on another Morricone classic, "Cinema Paradiso"; melancholy readings of Don McLean's "Starry, Starry Night" and Albert Hammond's "Alejate"; masterfully dramatic takes of the Neapolitan "Alla Luca Del Sole" and "Canto Alla Vita," the latter featuring the Corrs. Many of Groban's performances here, including a neo prog-rock-opera take on Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" (with Lili Haydn), seem both bigger and bolder than their precious musical frameworks, a telling hint that Grand Opera can't be far from his grasp. As said earlier, there are worse things in life. --Jerry McCulley

I love Josh Groban's music! It is romantic, mellow and beautiful :)
This CD has two songs on it that are very unusual. I believe both are from Cirque de Soleil, and draw you into the music--warning-- While driving, do not close your eyes!

First saw and heard Josh on the Tv and was blown away by his talent! it was about a year later that I found out who he was and bought the first album and can honestly say that I have never tired of his work. Every song is magical and he is truely wonderful. Have since purchased all his work and have also had the priviledge of seeing him live in concert in Glasgow/Scotland and was amazed. such a talented young man with a truely magical voice

Put together by Abba's own Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus, Mamma Mia! manages to cram over 20 of the Swedish supergroup's songs into a threadbare plot. It goes a little like this: Young Sophie is getting married and she's trying to identify which of three men is her father. That's about it. Wisely, the musical doesn't mess around with the songs, save for the insertion of some dialogue or for having some of them performed by a man (it works amazingly well). Abba fans will jump on this import of the London production, but traditional fans of musical theater should consider it as well. After all, Andersson and Ulvaeus's songs have always felt as if they were more than isolated pop gems and actually belonged to a longer narrative. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Lullabies lend themselves to woozy re-creations, a sort of endless repetition that flags under the weight of the concept (putting kids to bed for their much-needed sleep) and the lack of weight accorded to the music. You might expect a Disney lullaby collection to be on a par with the most mediocre collections, but this one is really a fine set. The tunes are standard--from the famous "Brahms Lullaby" to "All the Pretty Little Horses"--but they're uniformly excellent and creative, staying within the realm of acoustic music that sounds and feels organic. These are Disney-related tunes, for the most part, so "Stay Awake" is here, as is the whimsical "Sleep, Daddy, Sleep." Musically, the set is varied, steering away from a repetition of instrumentation or delivery. That makes it easily entertaining enough for back-to-back listens, which any parent will be asked for with this collection. --Andrew Bartlett

I've used this album for all four of my children, ages 12 weeks to 15 years - from their infancy through their toddlerhood. You won't find a sweeter set of songs. Just a precious, precious album.

I had this a long time ago when my now 5 yr old was an infant. I LOVED it then....not so much now. U can find alot of these songs by different artists on iTUnes

We LOVE this CD.......2007-07-10

A few years ago someone made us a copy of this tape and my kids played it over and over again until the tape broke. Thank goodness for CDs, because this one gets much use!

The only drawback (and it is not really that big a deal) is that my girls tend to sing along to the songs when they should be focusing on going to sleep! :)

I would not hesitate to recommend this one to my family and friends! We are very happy with this CD.

Wonderful !!!!.......2007-06-12

I spent quite some time searching for the perfect lullaby cd for my newborn daughter. I wanted lyrics. I purchased this one, and I LOVE IT!!! The songs are great, syrupy sweet. I listen to it at least twice daily and am not tired of it. My daughter already recognizes it when I turn it on, and it is a part of our bedtime routine. Wonderful!

Amazing memories of the past.......2007-04-14

I just can't believe this is still available! this is awsome!I had the cassette version for my son (20years ago) and still have it but no cassette player to play it (every this is cd now) so I'm going to definately order this as I have grandkids now and this worked a treat getting my kids off to sleep when they were little ......very soothing and has always stayed eatched in my memory.

Ennio Morricone is well-known to moviegoers. His soundtracks for The Mission, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, Once Upon a Time in America, Cinema Paradiso, and others are invariably warmly melodic and superbly suited to the films they grace. They not only add atmosphere; they help tell the story. For this CD Morricone has created new orchestrations for many of his scores, adding a solo cello part for the indefatigable Yo-Yo Ma, whose musical curiosity seems to be endless. Outside the films, these pieces tend to be lovely melodies, mostly pretty sentimental stuff, and, in the best way, gorgeous aural wallpaper. The most moving are the two selections from The Mission, but fans of Morricone's music will find plenty to enjoy here. Ma's playing, as always, is exquisite---warm, deeply felt (given the circumstances), and entirely idiomatic within the context. Perhaps not quite for the classical music lover, but an affectionate reworking of music by an important film composer. --Robert Levine

Customer Reviews:

Is it bad to say I like this better than the original soundtrack?.......2007-06-02

I never thought Yo-Yo Ma would do Gabriel's Oboe (Track 1) from THE MISSION justice, but I was wrong. There's a pureness to this version that makes it easier casual listening than the version(s) on the soundtrack CD itself. So no matter how much I love the theatrical "largeness" of the Original Soundtrack (not to mention the full choir), this is the version I grab for the CD player/iPod/whatever.

My two other recommendations are Main Theme from ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST (Track 11) and Ecstasy of Gold from THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UGLY (Track 12). I suggest playing these consecutively as a single medley. Track 11 *WILL* bring tears to the manliest among us --particularly if you remember in the movie where Sergio Leone pulls the camera up to reveal the town rising.

I get the feeling "hardcore" classical fans would dismiss movie scores as commercial work. I truly believe Ennio Morricone transcends that. Even moreso than, say, John Williams, and on a different plane than a Danny Elfman. And I can't say more about the emotion Yo-Yo Ma brings to the table than what's already been discussed.

Absolutely Exquisite.......2007-05-15

The combination of Morricone and Ma is pure perfection. This CD fills my heart with so much joy that I could just cry. I listen to it almost daily and have given it away as a gift to my loved ones. I am captivated by their incredible talents, and I know you will be too.

Yo Yo Ma and the Maestro Marvelous!!!.......2007-05-13

Having recently succumbed to Yo Yo Ma after a longtime love of Ennio Marricone I was excited to get this CD from Amazon. It is superb! All of the songs had to be recrafted by Morricone to suit Yo Yo Ma but it is a great listen as you sonically travel down memory lane through some of Maestro Moricone's musical marvels. "Gabriel's Oboe" from "The Mission" now becomes "Gabriel's Cello." I laugh as Yo Yo Ma bows his brains out on the "Ecstacy of Gold' from "The Good,The Bad, and The Ugly." I recommend this to all Yo Yo Ma and Morricone fans...a great listen. Soothing after a hard day!

Better Every Time.......2007-05-09

This CD gets better with every listening. It was a great purchase.

Fabulous CD.......2007-05-07

I love Morricone and this CD has some of the best versions of my favorite pieces. I have ordered several as gifts for friends.

All for You is a tribute to the Nat "King" Cole Trio of the 1940s, when Cole performed as both a singer and a pianist. Krall, like her heroes Lena Horne and Carmen McRae, is also a singer-pianist, and she plays both roles on most of the songs here. She's able to link her singing to her piano playing in sympathetic ways and projects tremendous feeling through both. Like Cole in the '40s, Krall plays with a drummerless trio--here with guitarist Russell Malone and bassist Paul Keller. Their sense of intimate rapport is especially valuable on ballads such as "You Call It Madness" and "I'm Thru with Love," but also allows such uptempo tunes as "Hit That Jive Jack" to swing with surprising lightness. --Geoffrey Himes

Its so good to hear a musician who doesnt force the music but rather lets it flow, lets it just drift out from within. Beautiful, soft and mellow; this is definatly chill out music. Hard day at work, in need of something to take your mind off the rat race? Just slip this CD into the player and sit back and listen to a wonderful gifted jazz musician.

The magic of Nat King Cole's music sung by the beautiful voice of Diana Krall, a great combination.

Another great album.......2007-01-22

Diana Krall's voice is like no one else's and I love listening to her. She's very talented in her piano playing, of course, but that voice of hers and the songs on her albums --- I've never been disappointed in any of her work.

Incredible singing instrument .......2007-01-01

Most of the songs here are unfamiliar to me. But in every track one hears the remarkable singing voice of Krall. She is one of those singers like Streisand who makes the voice a musical instrument. She moves us in so many subtle ways. And there is something about the quality of her voice, its fullness, its beautiful timbre. She seems also to have such control of what she is doing , and she is always making it interesting with new little riffs here and there. She is the best 'new singer' I have heard in years.
Just a remarkable singer who it is pleasure to hear.

The great irony of John Barry's Academy Award-winning score for Out of Africa (which also took the Oscar as Best Picture) is that it almost never was; director Sydney Pollack had originally envisioned the film with native African music, going as far as laying the indigenous score down as he was editing. But the weight of John Barry's arguments--not to mention his considerable track record and composing gifts--held sway, and the composer delivered on his intent: a lush, romantic masterpiece for the ages. --Jerry McCulley

Simply beautiful.......2007-01-11

Out of Africa is a CD with beautiful music. When I listen to it, I imagine myself in the nature of Africa. You will enjoy it!

CD has missing track.......2006-12-03

John Barry's compositions are pleasantly sweeping. There's nothing wrong with this album, just not really enough to recommend it.

I was puzzled to learn that some time between my buying the LP record and the issuing of this CD, the track "The Music of Goodbye (love theme from Out of Africa)" was omitted. It's not that this song, sung by Melissa Manchester, is a must-have; it's more that it's sneaky to leave off tracks when you reissue a soundtrack in another format.

Disappointed.......2006-11-10

I absolutely love the music from Out of Africa, but I do not recommend this CD at all. The sound quality is so poor that I could only bear listening to it once.

Worth Buying!.......2006-11-06

Highly recommended for those who love instrumental music. A lot of beautiful flute, strings and some piano and harp. Very contemplative and hauntingly beautiful music.

Lesser bands might have been put off their stride by the death of their lead singer, but not AC/DC. No sooner had Bon Scott met his whiskey-sodden end in 1980 than AC/DC recruited a new singer, Brian Johnson--who sounded almost exactly like Scott--and released, in Back in Black, the biggest-selling album of their career. For Those About to Rock...We Salute You is a suitably triumphant follow-up. The cannon-punctuated title track--the most auspicious marriage of music and artillery since Tchaikovsky's "1812 Overture"--still provides a spectacular finale to AC/DC concerts. For Those About to Rock also confirmed that Johnson's lyrical preoccupations were broadly congruent with those of his predecessor: "Let's Get It Up" and "Inject the Venom" are as subtle as their titles sound. This is a record Beavis and Butthead would describe as "cool"--and, as usual, they'd be right. --Andrew Mueller

Best AC/DC album hands down.......2007-06-06

I've never claimed to be a big fan of AC/DC, and my best friend loathes them. However, I've been able to tolerate them and respect them from a musicians' point of view, and who could forget the classic tracks on the multiplatinum Back in Black LP. However Back in Black was still 80s heavy rock mainstream garbage to me in my mind. I couldn't get past the cliche lyrics of sex, wine, women, drugs, and the AC/DC cliches such as guns, fire, and hell.

Well, one night I was at a gig, with a band that I'm really great friends with. In between sets they threw on the track "For those about to Rock". I forgot how great that song was and I hadn't heard it in so long. I decided to pick the album up within the next few weeks and surprise, it dropped in price and it came with all of the original LP art.

However! There was a sticker on the front that said "remastered" and I was a bit skeptical. I mean, why fix something that isn't broken? Nonetheless I bought it and popped it in my car stereo. The explosive sound of this album just floored me. The masters sounded so good and the songwriting on this album is top notch.

I decided if any AC/DC album was worth picking up and mentioning to friends, FOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK was the one to recommend. No euro-trash here. No cheesy 80s drivel here. FTATR is actually a very modern sounding record! Nothing wrong with classic albums, but this was a nice touch. Every song leaves with a hard hitting ending, and the next song punches you right in the face not a second later. The tracks glide into each other seamlessly and without flaw. I have no complaints here.

I lost Back in Black a long time ago and I haven't really missed it much. The same with The Razor's Edge. But if I lost this one I would probably pick it up the next day. Great songs, great sound, great price.

most creative chording and drumming the band ever did.......2007-04-26

I agree with almost all of the positive comments on this great album but wanted to add my own two cents worth.

As a guitarist and drummer myself I have to say that this is malcolm's best album by far as a guitarist/songwriter (even if the songwriting isn't as exciting as that of back in black), his chords are far more interesting than his typical work.

Angus too, his contributions to the songwriting are excellent throughout the album, and his lead playing is full of intense raging emotion in this album, if such a thing could ever be said of his playing.

the bass playing is typical ac/dc, great playing, great tone, really simple and dark, occasional cool bends and riffs, but sitting perfectly in the mix with rudd/s drumming and malcolm's excellent playing.

Also definitely worth noting is that compared to everything else I've ever heard by one of my favorite straight ahead classic rock drummers (talking about Phil Rudd of AC/DC), this album has by far the most amazing drum playing of any ac/dc album. Not something one generally thinks of with AC/DC, but Rudd is largely responsible for the tone, feel and memorable rhythm riffs. Throughout back in black and most of the band's career up to and including for those about to rock (after which he frustratingly left the band for many years causing AC/DC to lose a major character of their signature sound until his relatively recent return), Rudd has been vital to the success of AC/DC with his incredible feel, understanding of the songs, and great tone (this is a man who's always known how to tune his sonar drums perfectly, listen to their live stuff from the bon scott days, his drums still sounded incredible even with low budget unproduced small venue live recordings). Throughout for those about to rock Rudd is permitted to contribute more than his typical creativity into fills (or, as I understand it, just forced his musicianship onto the recordings against the will of the young brothers, which is part of why he eventually quit due to the young brothers not understanding how unique and important he was to the band's sound). Also the engineers and producer (Mutt lange) did a great job of bringing his sound to the front of the mix while still leaving plenty of room for everyone's sound to come through evenly. This is an album you can play air drums to with the best of keith moon's and john bonham's triumphs. Well done Phil Rudd! I take off my hat to you.

Also this is the last album where Brian's voice sounded brilliant. After this is really did start losing it's tone and becoming more of a noisy scream, albeit still the best noisy scream I've ever heard.

Compared to later flops like flick of the switch, fly on the wall, the terribly produced who made who soundtrack (talk about inconsistent engineering!), and even the best of their later work such as thunderstruck (by now on their third drummer I believe after rudd's departure, AC/DC still wondering why their feel just isn't as good after "for those about to rock" hahaha), I would put this album at the top of the heap, equal to back in black in many ways, slightly better in a couple of ways, and a little bit less great in a couple of other ways notably, songwriting isn't quite as amazing, but still really good).

This and back in black are the best two brian johnson led ac/dc albums period. After this things went down hill with occasional good songs but nothing outstanding and many filler songs in albums that were just not interesting to listen to at all. They've gotten it back together recently with Rudd and the original lineup and the sound is back, but sadly the young brother's just don't write like they used to, and johnson just doesn't have the tone any more, so a great rhythm section and great players just are getting a little too spent now to come up with the magic even if they now sound almost like they did in the highway to hell days (oddly, but that's what I think they sound like anyway now).

Another level.......2007-03-21

Brian Johnson helps take the band to another level after the mega successful Back in Black. Though not as much of a commercial hit as the former, this album showcases some extraordinary guitar work by Angus Young.

Play This On 10.......2007-01-25

Ac/Dc is amazing....they have been around since the 70s and have never changed their sound...they still do heavy blues tinged rock better then ANYONE in the business
this is the 2nd release with Brian Johnson fronting the band...to those that thought the unbeatable Back In Black was a fluke this is proof that Brian has what it takes...this CD is powerful! If you play it at a low volume it still sounds good but it loses over half of it's punch...the guitar tones really only come out when you crank it up to 10...which is how rock and roll is meant to be...the title cut 'for those about to rock' is rock and roll perfection...a call to all rockers to unite and sing loud and proud,complete with cannon sounds...very powerful...followed by 'put the finger on you' extremely catchy and melodic and full of power,'let's get it up' more sexual charged lyrics backed by very melodic rock fury...'inject the venom' more power...unfortunately the rest of the album doesn't quite keep up that pace...but come on,how can you follow up a start to finish perfect album like Back In Black with another album that is absolute perfection...they come close...snowballed,breaking the rules,night of the long knives and spellbound are not quite up to the beginning tracks but they still ROCK with power...and evil walks rocks hard and is right up there with the beginning of the album...and then there is c.o.d which in my opinion is ac/dc's most underrated song...it is awesome....this CD is a great example of what rock should be

upside - C.O.D..the title cut 'for those about to rock' let's get it up,put the finger on you,inject the venom and evil walks...great rock...great production...great solos and rhythms and Brian Johnson screams with the best of 'em

the downside - the second half has some songs that get a little slow and lose a little steam but it still rocks

the bottom line - a fantastic follow up to the unbeatable 'Back In Black'..if you are just starting out with Ac/Dc start with Back in Black and Highway to hell and then check out this one and Dirty Deeds...honestly,rock doesn't get much better then this...this is powerful and you should run out and buy it...donutman says so!!!

Review #100, Baby.......2007-01-10

I have now listened to all but a few of AC/DC's albums, and I would probably declare this one the second worst (with Highway to Hell being a painfully obvious last place). This was an absolutely horrible follow-up to the phenomenal "Back In Black"; it deserves every ounce of its low ratings and isn't the slightest bit underrated. I don't even know how this band ever got popular; their style is horribly repetitive and simple. If nothing else they were able to influence the future awesomeness of Jet and other such bands, but it's releases like this that make me wonder why the heck classic rock bands even have fans. I don't care for Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, Rush, Styx, or other such bands. Oh, I also loathe The Who more so than any of those bands. People need to stop being so trendy and liking all the albums considered "classics" and find some more recent albums to consider classics since the 2000's are shaping out pretty good as rock music goes. As for this specific album, though, it has one good song; the title track. Bands use this technique often when they only have one good song on the album; they make it a hit. The rest of this album isn't as heavy as "Back In Black" and really it's boring enough to be classified a "snoozer". One star is what I'd give it; the AC/DC albums that you should buy are "High Voltage" and "Back In Black". Didn't like the rest.

Customer Reviews:

Great vocal warmup, especially of breath control, with unique syllabic exercises!.......2007-06-17

I am a piano teacher who also teaches voice, and this CD has been a lifesaver for me, it has helped improve problems with my voice students that
common popular exercises have failed to achieve. The breath control exercises especially have been an enormous help, and my students find them
not only challenging but fun as well. The warmup exercises are a little unique, bringing in tweet, hweet, and unique ways to improve sound production with exercises that combine air production with compression against the lips and teeth. The exercises as a whole help students with the lower register as well as the upper, and effectively improve power without yelling. A great program, I highly recommend!

Enjoyment.......2007-05-20

I haven't had the opportunity to review it for myself. However, my niece in california was so excited to receive this. She said she's enjoying it. She's working on her vocals daily.

great service.......2007-05-13

Came really quickly and just in time! I needed some help warming up for an early morning service I had to sing for and I was hoarse. this really helped.

Good tool.......2007-05-12

I find this material very useful. The teacher makes it feel like you are in actual face to face voice lessons. Technically acceptable.

GREAT INVESTMENT.......2007-03-09

IT COVERS THE BASICS AND THAT'S PERFECT FOR ME. IF YOU ARE MORE ADVANCED AND HAVE HAD PRIOR VOICE LESSONS YOU MAY FIND THIS TO BE TOO SIMPLE TECHNIQUES. I ENJOYED FOLLOWING THE EXERCISES AND REPATING THEM. I WILL DEFINATELY BUY THE NEXT VOLUME. [...]

Album Description

Hayley Westenra's new album Odyssey was always going to be a different proposition to Pure, the record-breaking 2003 collection which marked her international debut. A lot has happened to the young New Zealander over the past two or three years--and those changes are clearly reflected by a record which encapsulates her growth from a budding teenage prodigy into a mature young woman.

Now, at 18, Hayley is ready to show the world how much she has grown up, both as an artist and as an individual. Fans of Pure will be pleasantly surprised by her new album. Her wonderful voice retains its crystal-clear purity, but Westenra's singing is now richer and more rounded than before. Touring the world and singing in some of its greatest concert venues, such as the Sydney Opera House, Royal Albert Hall, and Carnegie Hall, has worked wonders for her confidence. Suitably emboldened, she has embraced an even wider range of musical styles including classical, hymns, folk and pop.

"I was happy with Pure at the time, but I've moved on so much," says Hayley. "It's really exciting to have something new out there for people to listen to. I wanted to make a record that represented me as a person. And I think I've improved as a vocalist."

Variety is certainly one of the keywords with Hayley's new album. When she first entered a recording studio in New Zealand as a 12-year-old, Westenra restricted herself to classical pieces and show tunes. Now, in addition to impressive takes on classical works, Hayley uses her new album to perform an inspired cover of Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now" and has arranged and written much of the material. "I like to push myself, and I'm now confident enough to try different things. I have been much more involved behind the scenes with this album--I wanted to put my individual stamp on each song."

With her career stretching out promisingly before her, Hayley is also keen to continue experimenting. She is still primarily a classical crossover artist but she also wants to keep broadening those musical horizons. Three years after her international debut CD, Hayley Westenra is still pure: she exudes pure quality and she remains pure class--but her musical journey continues with her new album Odyssey.

Customer Reviews:

Wonderful melodies.......2007-06-08

This is a wonderful CD with beautiful melodies. Hayley Westenra has a very pure voice and sings right on key. The melodies are very relaxing and the musical settings are well arranged.

Hayley Westenra - Odyssey.......2007-06-08

Pure, crystalline, angelic voice. Gorgeously produced. "Prayer" is stunning. "Both Sides Now" wonderful. The rest is good but not her best song selection. When I first heard this girl on the "Celtic Woman" tour I was totally blown away. None of her CDs will disappoint!

Very soothing.......2007-05-14

Hayley Westenra's Odyssey is a very beautiful CD. If you switch on your walkman and listen to the CD's tracks non-stop, you'll soon feel like you're flying in Heaven. It's very soothing and heavenly. It calms you down, without causing you to feel lonely or sad because you're listening to it in solitary, like other vocal or classical songs do sometimes.

I would definitely recommend it to anyone interested. Quanta Qualia and Ave Maria are my most favourite tracks. Quanta Qualia is pure magic! I really feel as if I'm flying in Heaven when I listen to it.

very good pop singer voice.......2007-05-13

the selections were tasteful and varied. the singer has a very good pop singer voice. i would have liked some voice variation between songs. all were sung in exactly the same style. good singing but without tonal variation the disk tends to be bland. i hope that as she gets more exposure she will vary her voice to make the songs stand out individually instead of letting them blend into one song on the disc. i would rate this 5 stars except for that major fault.

Voice & level head deserve high marks .......2007-04-20

Not only has Hayley Westenra's voice remained "pure", but her good sense and sensibilty has stayed intact when so many similar young performers have gone over the deep end with extreme behavior and disreputable remarks. On this CD Miss Westernra covers a number of songs in her own special style, such as excellent versions of "Prayer", "May It Be" and "Both Sides Now". I hope to hear her renditions of more such tunes, old and new. I would like to hear her sing songs like "Yesterday", "I Still Believe in Love" and All I Know. She has a way with her soaring vocals that never lets the listener down.
