This Album is outstanding.It is a great example of an artist being able to put what very personal feelings he has and turn those feelings into beautiful song and outstandingly produced music.George Michael has,with this album,created an album that really shows what music is;A medium in which to project ones personal feelings into a beautiful and enjoyable thing.Personal feeling,passion,emotion and heart is what music is about and George just does it with this album.Listen to the words and music and you cant help but feel what George is trying to say.Beautiful.Simon Edwards

This album is a masterpiece! From the energetic upbeat Freedom! '90 to the musically enchanting They Won't Go When I Go, or the musical wizardry of praying for time there isn't a bad track to be found. George Michael really has come of age with this album. The Lyrics are as fine as you'll find, with the words of praying for time in a league of their own. Whether you want to join in with George in the singing of something to save, or if you want to be drawn almost hypnotically away by mothers pride there is something for everyone. Buy this album.

Without question, in this area of the world, this is the record that had people scratching their heads when it came out. No longer he of the "biker-femme" persona, GM came out (you know what I mean) with an incredible sophomore effort. Serious, vulnerable, so much different than Wham! or "Faith." Most people I know have never even listened to the record (which says a lot about how difficult it is to hear any GM in the States), others doubted it could be anything more than Faith II. Those who gave it a listen were hooked. Even those who despised George from Faith. Even those who don't necessarily like his style. They all had to admit that this is a record that reaches near epic, operatic proportions. "Cowboys and Angels" is the most interesting track, but it is the more radio friendly "Waiting for that Day" that is widely held to be the "song" of the album. Just an opinion, but maybe George was going through some sort of spiritual struggle while writing these songs (and as I understand had just been dumped by Kathy Jeung). Who knows? These last few years have proven that whatever kind of struggle it was, he lost (see LA cop fiasco). This is the George Michael that I want to remember when he retires to the South of France and stops making music.

Whatever happened to volume 2?
Sometimes it's hard to follow up a great début album i.e. 'Faith', but this album for me far outshines that first album, both musically and lyrically. Excellent.
