Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

So he's the acoustic-troubadour-James that isn't James Blunt. He's the other one--the one that looks a little like Chris Martin from a distance and who with those two vague affiliations was surely always pre-destined to sell an awful lot of records, even if he was equally condemned to relative anonymity by turning up too late to claim credit for his own image. And if he failed on debut album Undiscovered to distinguish himself all that much from The Other James, particularly with fluid lighter-waving singles "You Give Me Something" and "Wonderful World", then follow-up album Songs for You, Truths for Me is out to redress that. The underlying soul heritage that served as a reference point on Undiscovered but never really pushed to the fore is much more prominent, seen especially as the album blasts opens with groaning, piano-spanking, brass-heavy, Hammond-tinged "The Only Night", something like The Counting Crows do The Commitments, with unmistakable similarities to Aretha Franklin and George Michael's 1987 blockbuster hit "I Knew You Were Waiting". It's the kind of thing you can imagine him winning a Brit Award with, probably with a collaborative performance to boot. "Nothing Ever Hurt Like You" takes those influences to the lounge, "Precious Love" is Otis Redding via Ray LaMontagne, and the Nelly Furtado-featuring "Broken Strings" is a breezy, stirring pop song. Even when he falls back on his debut's established strengths, this is a more than adequate showcase for his powerful voice. --James Berry


CD Description

The Brit Award winning James Morrison follows his million selling debut, 'Undiscovered', with 'Songs For You, Truths For Me'. Running in a similar vein to his first record, this album comprises the soulful blues and distinctive voice that made 'Undiscovered' so successful. 'Songs For You, Truths For Me' includes 'Broken Strings', a duet with Nelly Furtado and is preceded by the single 'You Make It Real'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, 22 Oct 2008
By Ciaran (Essex, England) - See all my reviews
Morrison's opening single The Only Night is an unusually upbeat pop record for the album, setting the mood for a mixed bag of gems that throw you a variety of moods from happiness to sorrow.

The next two singles, Save Yourself and You Make It Real have James Morrison written all over them.. in a good way. There's a part of me that feels You Make It Real's chorus resembles a more down beat version Simply Red's stars, if only for a second or two. You Make It Real still manages to be an utterly original and sensual melody, paving the way for a variety of even more appealing single releases.

The dramatic, melancholy collaboration with Nelly Furtado might remind you of Snow Patrol and Martha Wainwright's brilliant Set The Fire To The Third Bar and Precious Love puts Morrison's vocals to an emotional high as he wails powerfully through the song's smooth and catchy chorus.

If you were a fan of Morrison's first album, Undiscovered, you cannot afford to miss out on songs for you, truths for me. James' new album is everything it's first had.. and more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Even Better Than His Debut Album!, 30 Sep 2008
By Katrina-UK (Stockport, Cheshire, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
If you thought this fella's debut album was good, wait until you hear this! For me this album is a big improvement on his first album. Every song on this album is excellent, apart from 'Dream On Hayley' which doesn't do anything for me. Heck 11 out of 12 good songs ain't bad! All the other songs are worthy of being released as singles.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Cracker !, 29 Sep 2008
The usual problem with a brilliant first album is following it up with something that comes remotely close. Well, this one does more than that - I've not played it to death yet, but it could be even better that his debut ! Not heard a bad track yet, and this, like the debut, keeps popping up new favourites on each listen. The opener grabs you straight away, as does the duet with Nelly Furtado.
Knockout !
