Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
While Nashville's "country for kids" campaign has largely been a bust, this 12-year-old ploughs fearlessly and headlong into anything and everything thrown his way. Tammy Wynette's classic "'Til I Can Make It on My Own" doesn't faze him. Neither do cotton-candy pop oldies ("Little Things" and "Little Bitty Pretty One"), oddball novelties ("The Snake Song") or inspirational fare ("There's a Hero"). His credible delivery of "Oklahoma", the moving tale of one boy's trip to meet a long-vanished father, is a fine performance that transcends his age. Don't blame him for the weak spots; credit for the cookie-cutter arrangements and such soggy ballads as the preachy title track goes to multiple producers Don Cook (Music Row's dean of formulaic production), David Malloy and Blake Chancey. As always, their goals are to satisfy the one-dimensional country-radio consultants who dictate what gets played, nothing more. Long ago, producers Owen Bradley and Billy Sherrill helped Brenda Lee and Tanya Tucker, respectively, build youthful success into enduring adult careers. If only young Gilman had such visionaries enhancing his talent. --Rich Kienzle

5.0 out of 5 stars Music you feel rather than just listen..., 24 Aug 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: One Voice (Audio CD)
What a fantastic debut album for a wonderful voice especially as he is only 12. What a powerful range in his voice that actually makes you feel the music rather than just something to listen to. My appreciation of music has been enhanced no end by this young man and his wonderful performance of these songs which are both entertaining and inspirational. He reminds us all that we should follow our dreams as he has done with his music career. Well done Billy and thank you for giving us your music. You have a wonderful gift!

5.0 out of 5 stars A one in a million CD, 15 Nov 2000
This review is from: One Voice (Audio CD)
I first saw Billy Gilman on the TV show "This Morning". The little lad, age 12, walked on and gave a very 'grown up' interview, but I hasten to add that he wasn't precocious or forward - he was still a sweet kid, just very sensible. And then he sang "One Voice". The sweet and clear beginning made me want to cry, and then as the song built up and his voice just sailed to the clouds, I was stunned. Such range! I knew from the start that Billy Gilman had a voice that was simply remarkable. I bought this CD and it proved beyond any doubt that this voice IS remarkable, and so much more. How a child of 11 (as he was when he recorded it) can sing such things so very much FROM THE HEART is simply astounding. The ballads give me a lump in the throat every time, and the more up tempo tracks are just as great. This lad can sing anything, and, boy, does he do it well! Just keep on singing Billy, I'll be buying every album!

5.0 out of 5 stars What a voice!, 31 Oct 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: One Voice (Audio CD)
After listening to this CD, I am convinced that Billy Gilman will go far.

If I hadn't seen his age on the CD cover, I would have assumed that he was a lot older. How can someone so young sing like that?

Every note, in every song, is perfect, and the choice of tracks on this CD demonstrates his wonderful talent.

A brilliant CD that I would recomend to others.
