4.0 out of 5 stars A Surprisingly Good Album, 27 Dec 2002
As you may expect from an album taken from a TV show there are a lot of cover-versions present in the track listing. However, those songs which made it onto the album which had been written by the students themselves, are actually pretty good.

There must have been a heated debate about whether all the student should be included in the final cut, and fair-play they have been, even though some are less talented than others. Certainly, Ashley and Chris were extremely lucky to have "made the grade". Apart from the occasional average performance there is a certain swagger to some of the voices here. Sinead for one comes across far better here than she did on any of the live shows.

Overall this album is worth a look, especially if you watched the series. My only real disappointment is that David Snedden's song "Stop Living A Lie" is not present, and I subsequently find myself actively resenting some of the weaker students because of this.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent choice of music from budding new stars!, 5 Dec 2002
I thought the new Fame Academy CD was absolutely excellent! It includes a marvellous selection of the best songs from the Fame Academy and I think the producers made an excellent choice with them. My favourite track on the album has to be Lullaby, by Ainslie and Lemar. What genious! This song definately shows the Fame Academy stars at their best. It's a hit!

4.0 out of 5 stars A must for fans of the show, 17 Dec 2002
By A Customer
If you haven't been out for the last 10 Friday nights because you simply had to find out whether your favourite Fame Academy student was saved from expulsion for another week, this is the album for you. It's got all the best songs from the live showdowns, including Nigel's Heard it on the Grapevine, Katie's Perfect, and Marli and Malachi's Fields of Gold. Although Lemar and Ainslie's own song Lullaby is on the album, it lacks a couple of the better original songs from the academy, notably David's Live the Lie and Sinead's I Can't Break Down.
