Product Description

CD Description

Having met via Facebook when still studying at music schools, four-piece classical crossover band Blake have undergone a meteoric rise since their inception. Their second full-length release, 'And So It Goes', sees them tackling a typically broad range of material. Thusly, contrasting songs such asSnow Patrol's 'Chasing Cars' and the light-opera staple 'Time To Say Goodbye' are tackled with four-part vocal harmonies in the group's pop/classical hybrid. Also included are versions of Tippett's 'Steal Away' and the classic power ballad'Up Where We Belong'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Award Winning Standard, 29 Sep 2008
By Katrina-UK (Stockport, Cheshire, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
Equally as good as their first album, in my opinion Blake are the best classical/contemporary group out there. I just love their voices, their choice of songs, their harmonizing...

Just sit back, relax, and enjoy this truly wonderful album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Blown Away, 29 Sep 2008
By G. E. Vesey - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I've just got my copy of And so it Goes through the post and I am totally blown away. Tha album starts with this incredible 'wall of sound' and then into a beautiful filmic string section, that in turns bleeds into the title track, 'And so it Goes'.It sounds breathtaking. It's an absolutely beautiful album. I wasn't sure what to expect after their massive success with the first one, but Blake have totaly exceeded my expectations. They've really matured as a group-true professionals. I'm so pleased they have managed to create an album like this. They have really taking the melding of pop and classical to another level here, and the sound is totally unique and original. I couldn't recommend this too highly. Well done Blake.

5.0 out of 5 stars I could listen to this album all day long, 29 Sep 2008
I received my CD this morning from Amazon, and have listened through at least 3 times already. It's a CD I could happily play all day long.

My brother bought me the first Blake album last Christmas, which was absolutely beautiful; but this album takes their music to new levels.

The songs on this album are as interestingly varied as my own ipod, with songs that suit my mood at different times in the day. Always uplifting.

Highlights for me would certainly have to be Blake's version of "Chasing Cars", a sexy version of "Time To Say Goodbye", Meatloafs "Heaven Can Wait" and the beautiful theme from The Mission, "Nella Fantasia".

With songs that use full orchestra, electronic instruments, piano, guitar and drums, the mood of the album never stays in one place. The four singers don't always sing in full harmony, instead they sometimes take different solo lines for separate songs. I like this approach alot.

This is a much slicker album than the first one, although it still retains that emotional tenderness of the first. I think this album will appeal to everyone from mums to their youngest daughters, because the choice of songs is excellent and contemporary.

I guess those that want to listen to hardcore indie bands or equally hardcore classical opera stuff, mightn't like it, but it's not for them.

This is a CD for people who love great songs, and want to hear really beautiful versions of them. I've since bought 3 more copies for friends.
