Product Description
CD Description
One minute Faryl Smith was an ordinary schoolgirl with a talent, the next she was being told in front of a national television audience 'You are literally one in a million' and 'super-talented'. For her self titled debut album, Faryl has chosen songs that she loves performing. 'Obviously I had to put "Ave Maria" on the album, because I sang it on Britain's Got Talent and everyone knows I sing it' says Faryl. Other songs include "Amazing Grace", "River of Light (the Blue Danube)" and for her Welsh grandfather "Calon Lan".
Faryl is a normal young girl with an extraordinary gift. 'When people come up to me and say "Oh, your singing made me cry", it's nice to realise that you're making other people happy. But I don't know how I do it, I just sing', Faryl Smith, December 2008

I find it difficult to believe that this girl is only thirteen years old; many adult professional singers must be green with envy that they don't possess a voice of such purity and sweetness. Faryl Smith is a truly amazing teenager, who will go far in the music business, and more power to her elbow, or should I say, to her vocal cords! The choice of music is excellent on this album, illustrating well the range and variety of this young lady's repertoire. I especially love "River of Dreams", "Annie's Song" and "The Way old Friends Do". If you're hesitating about buying this album, then don't. It's well worth every penny! When's her next one being released? That's what I want to know!

She has an amazing talent, quite breathtaking for one so young, and I hope she gets the success she richly deserves. I look forward to the next album.
My only (very minor) gripe with the album is the song selection which at times strays just a bit too close to the "chocolate box" sort of song. The Ave Maria was, for me, the finest track, and I would like to hear her do more of that kind of music and a bit less of the "River of Light" - but I fully accept that that is just my taste. And she has plenty of time to do more.
That being said, even if they were not my ideal choices, she sings them absolutely magnificently.

This cd is lovely. Faryl has a beautiful voice which has not been spoilt by being to 'operatic' if you know what i mean. it is just a lovely sound.
