Product Description

From Amazon.com
This is the one, the album Michael W. Smith has always wanted to make. Put simply, Live the Life is a masterpiece. The Christian music star has finally meshed his impressive songwriting skills and limited but effective singing with a tasteful producer's ear. The anthemic "Missing Person" sets the tone: Smith is playing for keeps. Guitars, not keyboards, play a large role on this release, as evidenced by Smith's cowriting with the vastly underrated Brent Bourgeois on "Live the Life," "Don't Give Up," and "Matter of Time." On the rest, Smith shares songwriting duties with master musician Wayne Kirkpatrick. Each number carries a depth unparalleled and showcases Smith's maturation. Fast, slow, happy, sad, quiet, and loud: you have it all on Live the Life. --Michael Lyttle

Description
On his eleventh album, Christian artist Michael W. Smith proves once again his ability to provide pop appeal while maintaining his integrity, as well as continuing his themes of thankfulness and deep religious faith. LIVE THE LIFE varies from Smith's previous albums in that he plays guitar rather than piano, lending an edgier, more assertive tone to the music. Highlights include the anthemic title track; the quirky "Love Me Good", and the touching "Hello, Goodbye", which waswritten for friends of Smith's whose new baby died. Smith attributes the themes of LIVE THE LIFE, as well as its title,to a quote by St. Francis of Assisi: "Preach the gospel to all the world and if necessary, use words".

5.0 out of 5 stars THE BEST ALBUM I HAVE EVER LISTENED HEARD!, 1 Jan 2001
By cookeje@swbell.net (Houston, Texas) - See all my reviews
I 'discovered' Michael W. Smith about 6 months ago and have most of his albums. This one is the best Albums I have ever listened to. This man is a genius as far as I am concerned. He is a brilliant musician and sings so wonderfully. I had to buy a second copy of "Live the Life" for my children, who are 9, 11, and 13 as they love it especially the first song, Missing Person. We listen to it over and over again and what is so great about it is that the messages in the songs are so wholesome. Don't even think twice about buying this CD!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A very good album for your Christian music collection, 11 Dec 2000
By A Customer
This CD is packed with great songs. My favourites among them are "Never been unloved" as it is a powerful song. I would recommend this to anyone who is seeking to improve their Christian walk through the medium of music. It is a great CD that makes you think about what is truly important in life.
