This is my favorite CD from Chris Isaak
344026
I like all 25 songs on the double CD. I usually only care for 2 or 3 songs per album. My favorite songs are Miss Pearl,Your True Love, So Long I'm Gone, Trying To Get To You, and My Baby Left Me. I've been a Sun Records fan since the '50s and I think Chris does his own spin without imitating.

I have been anticipating this CD for months.  When it became available for download on Tuesday morning I know I was one of the first to get up and take advantage of that option so that I could begin to enjoy the new music Sharon Browne has brought to us through Celtic Thunder.  It is just amazing.  The songs span the ages from old timey style tunes which Paul Byrom (Doo Wacka Do) and Damian McGinty sing (Standing on the Corner) to more recent music like Home, as sung by Damian.  Just hearing Amazing grace is worth the price of the CD. The song is absolutely gorgeous. The accapella is sumptuous and sinful which is such an interesting dichotomy considering the song's religious intent. I want to go to mass when they sing this and living in the south I see the revival tents going up all over the and women being saved in droves by the angelic voices singing this song, it displays their talents well, especially with the addition of Neil's voice.  So many of the other songs remind of my younger days in High School and college, I can listen to them and kind of paint a collage of pictures in my mind of things I did with those songs and it is fun.  They are all happy songs for me. Hard to Say I'm Sorry, is such a lovely love song sung by Keith and reminds me of my younger days. Everything I Do, you just want to be the one who Ryan is singing to he makes such a soulful plea and finally Hello Again from George, you really want to be at the end of the telephone when he calls you to say hello. There are so many good songs on this CD Gems that have been resurrected, who can forget Bad Bad Leroy Brown which Ryan has brought to life again? Not to mention Keith's energetic rendition of the Surfer Medley, which fits him to a tee, and the addition of Neil's solo When you wish upon a star? Gorgeous songs all of them. This CD is a hit and another Chart Topper for Phil Coulter and Sharon Browne.

Kenny Chesney is probably my favorite country artist.  However, I like all types of country from traditional to modern.  The thing that attracts me to Kenny is 1) He puts on one heck of a concert (which I've seen him 3 times and met him once) and 2) The beat of his music is outstanding.  You could make a case that every song on here could be a hit for him.  My personal favorites are "Living in Fast Forward", "Beer in Mexico", and "Like Me."  All the songs are great and this CD is in my CD player more than any other CD I own (and I own close to 100).  If you like Kenny, even just a little bit then this CD is a must have.  I guarantee you will not be disappointed.

After hearing them for the first time on their EP Laughing City (and being blown away by it) I couldn't wait to get this CD. It's funny though, when I first listened to the CD I was kinda disappointed. I'm not sure why. But I gave it another try, and soon it was all I listened to. Now I can easily say this is my favorite CD I have ever owned. After about eight years of listening to it fairly frequently, I'm still not sick of it. Most of the songs and voices are so relaxing you can fall asleep to them like a lullaby. But at the same time, the lyrics and the unique musical combinations are very interesting to me. The mood is a mixture of wonder, happiness, and sadness. Seriously every song is amazing, it's hard to  pick a favorite. I could go on, but I won't :)

I have listened to the samples of this CD and absolutely love every song on it.
Paul's voice is so smooth and beautiful. You gave me goose bumps. I will certainly download the MP3 for my IPOD, but I want the CD as well but can find it on here.
I will go to your personal website. I hope it is there.
Thank you for this beautiful list of songs for the Season, can't wait to play it at other houses and where I work. I work at a Senior's Citizen's Lodge and they will love everyone of those songs. It is truly Inspirational.

Such a heartfelt album! You can definitely tell that Chris put in a lot of emotions into it. It has quickly become my favorite CD, because I cannot stop listening to it. Congratulations Chris on this amazing success!

Chrisette has made a wonderful album. The songwriting, lyrics, beats, productions, and voice are all right on.  This is the first CD that I have put on repeat since I don't know when. These days, I play a CD once and occassionally go back to it. With Epiphany, I have not stopped listening to it since i got it. The songs on this CD come right from the pages of my life. I can relate so well to everything she says. The songs are thoughtful, well-written, catchy, well-sung, smart, heartfelt, just great. As a music lover, i feel blessed to have heard this CD. It has made my days a lot easier to get through. Chrisette has tapped into the beauty and transcendental effect of music. Also, she does a great job of toning down her particular unique singing style so that it does not overwhelm and make the song for so "affected". Great job.

For a critic to negate Chris Isaak's woe-is-me routine is so silly - after all, do we really want to hear 'Baby Did a Swell Swell Thing'? Noooooo. On this album, there are some unusual bits like the fast paced, more modern piece "Always Got Tonight" - and the choppy, fun "Notice The Ring". But it's the melancholy songs that are the very best...Isaak's sorrow-laden tunes on this album shine like gems, especially the Sea Of Love-ish "Worked It Out Wrong", and the sad, lilting "Life Will Go On".
Buy it. Buy it NOW! If you are fond of Chris Isaak, this album will do you no wrong.

Just saw Chris Isaak live in Nashville at the Grand Ole Opry...what a performer! I already knew his voice is velvet, but I hadn't known how charming and funny he is. He really connected with the crowd, and I enjoyed his deprecating humor toward himself and his band.

"I've been told I write the best unrequited love songs. Scotty, you know what unrequited love is? No? It's when love turns out real bad."

I fell in love with Chris Isaak listening to his poignant breakup CD Forever Blue, and this compilation of his greatest hits is also wonderful.

I've met Chris several times at Leon shows.  Not only is he a genuine nice guy but one helluva talent. I admit I reluctantly bought this cd not being sure of how well it would be produced even though Chris has amazing talent.  It ended up being my purchase of the year.  Production is great and the songs are incredible.  I would buy another Chris cd w/o question when its released.  In fact I re-bought this one to give to a few freinds.  Great CD!!!!

I recently saw Brandi Carlile open for Chris Isaak. I was BLOWN AWAY by her voice. She was amazing! I got chills hearing the power and purity of her voice. I bought her CD after the show and I can't stop listening to her. The CD is great, but doesn't compare to hearing her perform live. I CAN'T WAIT to hear more from her, a live album would be awesome.

She seems to be her own person and is very grounded at the tender age of 23, I just hope she will be able to continue to make her music the way she wants and not music her record label deems "marketable". What an amazing talent.

OMG!  I love this cd.  It has not left my CD player since I received it.  I rarely listen to a CD from beginning to end but this and Chris' previous CD I am able to do that with.  There are ballads to get you in the mood, dance music to get you ready for a party and so many other wonderful songs.  I LOVE THIS CD!

If this isn't Chris Isaak's best, then all I can say is that it is better and more original than most others could ever turn out.  His style is unique with a blend and talent I can't compare to anyone else.  I have read all the reviews and some good points were made but come on people..................this CD is great.  I could listen to it over and over again. If the music touches your soul in some way, I think the mission has been accomplished.

Marc Broussard is one of my favorites.  This CD is excellent.

I watched the PBS TV show hosted by Chris Isaak with dozens of wonderful singers and musicians.  This CD contains all those performances and can go anywhere with me.  I highly recommend it.

The 16-song CD is a delightful mix of 11 traditionals, well worth the price just to hear Stevie Nicks and Isaak together on "Santa Claus is Coming to Town."  However, Isaak has added five original songs "Washington Square," "Hey Santa," "Christmas On TV," the spiritual "Brightest Star," and "Gotta Be Good." I strongly predict at least "Washington Square" and "Gotta Be Good" are going to be seriously covered by different artists next year.
