I can describe the release from Pop Music sensation, and American Idol contestant Taylor Hicks for you with just one word
Outstanding!
Unfortunately, its not everyday that I get a CD from an artist that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just cant force myself to get through. Not at all the case with Taylor Hicks. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.
This CD is a nicely varied, mix of 12 tracks that are very well written songs by this clearly talented artist. Most of the songs display a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Clearly drawing from what I can only imagine are his own real life experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions of love, heartbreak, pain, failed relationships and unattainable romance. Theyre all here.
The nice thing about a CD like this is with this level of talent even if Pop Music isnt your favorite style you still cant help but appreciate the greatness of the artist.
Listen to this CD and I believe youll find there's not much to dis-like about it. The songs are inspired, the production is simply outstanding, and his voice is in top form.
While this entire CD is outstanding some of my favorites are track 2, Dream Myself Awake, track 4 Gonna Move, track 8, The Maze.
My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 10, Soul Thing.
