Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

To judge by the impassioned responses to her debut album Voice Of An Angel, Charlotte Church has already set extraordinary expectations for any follow-up. After all, the vocal phenomenon from Cardiff took up a place in The Guinness Book of Records as the youngest artist ever--at the tender age of 12--to have an album attaining No. 1 status on the classical charts. This self-titled second release will continue to delight the highly gifted singer's legions of fans, and also contains some surprises for them. Church here tries out classical repertory with Puccini's "O mio babbino caro" and the "Jewel Song"--her pure and high-flying voice showing an amazing agility. There is great warmth in a couple of sacred songs, as well as the traditional Irish "She Moved Through the Fair". Church's vocal colour--almost like a boy soprano at times--brings something unique to Gershwin's "Summertime", while the first track--"Just Wave Hello"--seems destined to become part of the music you can't avoid associating with the turn of the millennium. --Sarah Chin

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing , commerical lollipops, 19 Dec 1999
By A Customer
What a sore disappointment. This is an album of lollipops, cheap and commercial, which may appeal to the plebs but not to any serious audience. "Just Wave Hello" is a trite little number and Charlotte's talent is thoroughly wasted. If the song was sung by Jane Smith from Waterford no more would have to be said. Why steer a talent in such a commercial and banal direction. The talent that shone through in her rendering of Pie Jesu is never repeated here. Her renderings of Italian operatic arias show she has a long way to go before continental artistic intuition sets in. So what does the English musical establishment (which has produced so few soprano successes) want of her? A singer or an artist? Where does Charlotte want to end up, on Broadway or at the Met? Will her next album be "Famous Welsh Rugby Songs" or Strauss' Four Last Songs?

5.0 out of 5 stars Charlotte Church, THE voice for '2001, 22 Mar 2001
By Mr. Kevin Gallagher (Wadebridge, Cornwall United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If "Classical" fans are withering of this talent, then their comments are worthless!-Considering their fawning grovelling remarks over such awful SCREECHING HARPIES as Callas' endless grating and mundane Arpeggios. At least Charlotte can sing! I shall remain a devoted fan

5.0 out of 5 stars A new confidence developing, 12 Oct 2000
By A Customer
A hear a new confidence developing in this album. There is something of the popular in "Just Wave Hello" and for the Classical fan in the Italian and french and for the folkie soul too. All sung with a brightness and confidence engendered, no doubt, from the success of the"Voice of an Angel" album.

Some say that Charlottes voice is not as good as some youngsters of her age. This may be true. But, it takes a very special person and talent to stand in front of T.V. cameras and produce the goods in a live auditorium and record in front of a male voice choir and full orchestra. Your family must be oozing with pride for you Charlotte.

But where does she go from here? After her new album "Dream A Dream out in October 2000, with a selection of Christmas songs, where does this young talent go? Are we to have more albums exploring poular classics are are we to get some depth. I see the difficulty in that Charlotte has almost had her career too early and she may be too young for Stage opera and must stay in the `popular appeal` arena for some time. Personally, if she continues to produce good quality music, as she is doing, I shall continue to buy her CD`s and I will watch her career with great interest - A star in the making - if she has the inclination to continue and the dedication to improve. Keep it up Charlotte we are right behind you.
