Following hot on the heels of their enormously successful collaboration for The Lion King, Elton John and Tim Rice have once again culled their talents to create another Disney contemporary musical, based this time on Verdi's opera Aida. The album, recorded by some of the biggest talents of pop, country, and R&B, features songs from the stage show, which recounts the well-known tale of a love triangle further complicated by slavery, royalty, and the armed forces. John duets to great effect with country crooner LeAnn Rimes, the enchanting Janet Jackson, and the lovely Lulu of To Sir with Love fame. Lush and lively, the soundtrack hits a hoot of a (decidedly not highbrow) high point with the infectious pop of the Spice Girls warbling the merits of undergarments on "My Strongest Suit" ("Always wear underwear/Anytime, anywhere"). Lenny Kravitz funks things up with "Like Father Like Son." Shania Twain's husky emoting makes a fine pop ballad of the brief "Amneris' Letter." "Not Me" chronicles the goodness of love as Boyz II Men coo dreamily, their harmonies nestling into John's sumptuous score. --Paige La Grone

I would order from you again........2007-01-27

Product arrived in a timely manner in new condition, still wrapped in plastic. Thank you.

Loved it!!!.......2006-09-07

I'm so impressed with this album for several different reasons.
3) It's Elton John
2) I loved all but two of the songs!
1) I usually hate the original broadway cast albums and movie soundtracks. They don't do the songs justice. They usually have chopped up versions of the songs and include unnecessary dialouge.

I'd love to see every musical (broadway or movie) done this way!
I appreciate the b'way versions, but I don't want to listen to them in my car...

good variety and feeling.......2004-06-24

This is a very good CD. "Written in the Stars" is an extremely emotional song, and it is my favorite on the album. I would like to see the show on Broadway, but I have to say I don't think it can be too much better than this CD

Sour Concepts.......2003-06-29

It takes so much to try to get a musical to make its way upon Broadway. Sometimes you really need to understand how to make it really happen within the passion of the storytelling music. In that case with Elton John, he nearly seemed to make it with Aida. While the music for Broadway always seems to have at least something completely mgaical and a dash of power in it. Sometimes, you really need to understand it, to make it happen, and others don't see it from the start. Although Elton John has had great music for years, at least once in a era, something goes a little flat.

The 1999 Aida, was not a studio album from Elton, but a preview from what was happen on Broadway. The various artists record contains so many different artists in the record including Tina Turner, Boyz II Men, Dru Hill, and the upcoming Heather Headley. Before Heather made it as a singer, she made it right here in Aida, on this record. The only decent song that was a hit was Written In The Stars, which Elton performed with Leann Rimes. The song was also the last song Elton cracked Billboard's Top 40. Still, there really wasn't a lot of enjoyment within most of the record, and it fell into a sleeper. Considering that Elton is already planning on making another smash musical on Broadway, hopefully he'll do better with the concept record.

When it does come to making it on Broadway, it isn't really anything exciting, unless it truly is a smash, and Aida is a smash on Broadway, just not the record. Still, if you're a die hard fan of Aida, buy this record. Otherwise, it could be a hitless miss.

Living Elaborate Lives..........2002-11-02

Aida was Elton John and Tim Rice's baby, providing a concept soundtrack album before even setting the stage on fire, the tracks are generally sweeping show ballads.
Elton teams up with several lovely and talented ladies, in LeAnn Rimes, Janet Jackson, and Lulu. "Written In The Stars" could be a vocal gladiator battle, the way LeAnn and Elton sing it. Janet and Lulu prove themselves as more mellow duet partners.
Kelly Price makes "The Gods Love Nubia" her own, the song is tied up in soul with her voice being smooth as silk. The far too short "Amneris' Letter" shows off Shania Twain's voice to perfection also. Pop culture phenomenon the Spice Girls turn "My Strongest Suit" into the most obvious pop stomper of this set. Another strong point is Heather Headley's solo "Elaborate Lives". A rich ballad, Headley recently embarked on an R&B singing career with the track "He Is". The legendary Tina Turner provides a fiery perfomance, her track being the powerful "Easy As Life" with Angelique Kidjo.
Duds are also present, Sting and Dru Hill's tracks are admitted stinkers. James Taylor, Boyz II Men, Sherie Scott, and Lenny Kravitz also deliver perfomances on the album. This album is well put together, with strong tunes and a short-list of superstars presenting them. A fun buy.

You'll be disappointed.......2006-09-02

Not the original artists. Very weak versions of beloved songs by marginal to downright bad vocalists.

Pretty good musical mix.......2006-03-10

Lots of great and clear vocals. I was looking for a musical mix and this has a nice sampling of many major songs but also some more recent stuff. I haven't purchased an import before but I would do it again if the opportunity presented itself. It is somewhat annoying to have three cds when I think it could have fit onto two. Still, more than I have complaints, I have compliments about it.

Amazon.com

It would be easy--too easy, in fact--to compare pianist Bill Charlap to the great Bill Evans. Easy because Charlap has the same kind of knack for spacious lyricism and impressionistic chordal harmonies that characterize the late jazz icon, and his interplay on Written in the Stars with his amazing rhythm team of bassist Peter Washington and drummer Kenny Washington recalls Evans's telepathic improvisation with Paul Motian and Scot LaFaro. Charlap treats the classic American songbook the way few young pianists treat it. Charlap, 33 years old as Stars comes to market, plays classics like "In the Still of the Night," "On a Slow Boat to China," and "Blue Skies" with such deep affinity that it's hard to believe he wasn't sitting right there when these tunes were written. His take on "Blue Skies" starts with a gorgeous rubato version of the tune's seldom-heard verse, weaves contrapuntal harmonies over the tune's chorus, and features some dazzling interplay between Charlap and bassist Washington--a recurring phenomenon, as the trio's members show remarkable empathy with each other on every track. In an age with no shortage of promising young pianists, Blue Note must have felt there was something special about Bill Charlap. One listen to Written in the Stars assures us that they made the right call. --Ezra Gale

Customer Reviews:

Disappointing effort from Bill Charlap.......2007-05-13

I've heard cuts from Bill Charlap's trio albums on FM and bought "All Through the Night" which I really like and so I purchased "Written in the Stars". This has been a disappointment--Charlap doesn't seem as inventive as his earlier effort and a couple of the tempos are way slow (The Man that Got Away and One for my Baby).

The album is supposed to feature the pianist not the rhythm section!.......2006-05-14

I would not buy this album because the bass fiddle is TOO LOUD and over-rides the pianist.

Nice standards collection.......2006-03-13

Bill Charlap is a sophisticated pianist, who has many subtlies in his playing, and a nice touch. To my ears anyway, he has been heavily influenced by the great Hank Jones, but at the same time shows that he has his own voice as well.

I don't listen to Charlap that often, but I like his style. Not exactly McCoy Tyner, but always enjoyable to listen to.

Bill Evans without the melancholy.......2004-01-13

This from the owner of uncountable jazz piano recordings going back to Tatem, Teddy Wilson, Nat Cole and with an overflow library of Bill Evans. Charlap does the best, most creative, most lively interpretation of standards I've ever heard. You need do no more than listen to the back-to-back cuts of "Slow Boat to China" (whoever did that one like this before?) and "One for My Baby" to get an idea of his versatility and creative range. He is just as good on his Stardust album and on "All through the night".

Where have you been, INDEED!.......2002-03-12

An amazing fact about jazz is that we keep rediscovering it.
I thought I knew all the great Cole Porter tunes, but here
comes a wonderful rendering of his "Where Have Your Been?" and I
cannot get it out of my head! Charlap makes everything sound
easy - sort of like Ralph Sharon....which is maybe why he has recently been playing with Tony Bennett.

As fans of musical theater, we're used to offbeat projects, but this long-forgotten show takes the cake--and it's completely entrancing. The opening number alone makes nasty fun of the then-popular beatniks and is immediately followed by "New York," a list song enumerating all the awful things about the city. Rarely has so much bile been spilled on the New York stage--but perhaps that's because the show originated in St. Louis. Tommy Wolf's finger-snapping score and Fran Landesman's biting lyrics are very compelling, especially because it's hard to tell when they're serious and when they're drily sarcastic. The energetic cast, which includes Larry Hagman (best known as JR in Dallas), is backed by a jazz quartet, and the result often sounds strangely contemporary. And then you have some numbers, such as "Night People," that are almost Sondheimian. What a strange, wonderful little show this is. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Customer Reviews:

An underrated gem!.......2003-06-03

The songs in this musical are simply wonderful! Canny, passionate, "beat," and sardonic. The story, its characters, and the lyrics are classic Greenwich Village of the late 1950's. This CD features talented singers and actors (including a very young Larry Hagman),a great lyricist, lush and complex music. To reiterate, it's just WONDERFUL! I ruined my LP long ago, and am THRILLED to find this CD replacement.

Dig that beat..........2002-02-28

A fun recording to have on CD. Very beatnik oriented musical from 1959 with such interesting names in the cast as Tom Aldredge (Into the Woods, Passion) and Larry Hagman!? The song "New York" is a lot of fun. The best of the rest the score include "The Ballad of the Sad Young Man" sung by Tan Seitz and "Laugh, I Thought I'd Die" sung by Richard Hayes. Larry Hagman has one song, "Travel the Road of Love" and although he doesn't embarrass himself, thank God "I Dream of Jeannie" and "Dallas" were still be come. He definitely did not inherit his mother's singing ability. In fact, I think his mother was performing in "The Sound of Music" during the short run of this show.

Let theyself be hereby dubbed.........Best Broadway Tune Vocalist..........2007-06-21

Of my dozens and dozens of Broadway music performances, I find only one singer can be dubbed "Best." That person, Thomas Hampson, is thee. While show performers and ballad singers have all had their way with these tunes, only one is across-the-board great in them.

And whether or not these are the "best" representative songs of Porter is a moot point, something entirely up to personal taste. The point is that these songs have not been better performed by an individual male singer. It certainly doesn't hurt, either, that the great John McGlinn was on board as conductor/director (and likely strongly involved in arranging).

****

This isn't a vanity crossover project but Cole Porter with art and style.......2006-07-17

The glut of crossover albums that came our way in the ripe era of Pavarotti and Domingo has abated, leaving not the best taste in the mouth. But there were some high points, and this 1991 Cole Porter collection from Thomas Hampson is a gorgeous example. Like his hero from the 30s, Lawrence Tibbett, who triumphed as much on radio as in the opera house, Hampson sings full out, applying an overtly operatic baritone to popular song. He has such a command of vocal technique that, as with Tibbett and more recently Ben Heppner, the glory of the vocalism would carry the day on its own.

But Hampson adds to this a good deal of finesse, humor, and suavity--particularly the last. "Begin the Beguine" and "In the Still of the Night" convey the cosmopolitan asurance that is a Cole Porter trademark. There are also some bigger songs, such as "It Was Written in the Stars," where Hampson can unleash his voice at full force, a thrilling experience. I don't think there's been an opera star who's made a Cole Porter recording other than Kiri Te Kanawa, in forty years. This is a very enjoyable one indeed.

pure self indulgent garbage.......2006-04-22

SOMEONE PLEASE STOP THOMAS HAMPSON, BEFORE HE HURTS HIMSELF...OR HURTS THE REST OF US....What a collective piece of trash this album is?..is there a more self-important, bloated, indulgent, precious, affected, pompous singer on the planet?...i am waiting for Thomas Hampson sings Disco...or Thomas Hampson sings Elton John...or Thomas Hampson does Eminem?...he probably thinks he could pull 'em off...what unmitigated gaul...don't waste your money here

Thank god, no astaire or kelly singing on this one.......2001-04-30

This was a great listen and it was finally nice to hear trained singers doing Porter. Can't stand it when I hear a lilting Porter song in an MGM film and then Astaire or Gene Kelly decide to try and sing it, usually off key, and end up slaughtering the number. Great to hear some of the old stuff and different takes on other standards.

Cole must have been watching over this project.......2000-09-06

John McGlinn's orchestrations on this compilation of Cole Porter tunes have as much to do with the brilliance of this CD as Mr Hampson's vocal renderings. Both have that lush sound that make a Porter tune sound like what this reviewer believes Porter would have appreciated, judging by his own versions of his songs, and the arrangements that he was involved in. McGlinn remained faithful to those original arrangements and added a few of his own ideas and along with modern day recording improvements produced a sound that I think Porter would very much approve of. My only complaint is the selection of songs, but that as always comes down to personal taste. However in doing so I was tuned into a few songs that I had never heard before, some of which are now among my favorite Porter songs. Specifically, 'Who said Gay Paree' is a sublime version of a lesser known Porter tune. It is one of his tunes about Paris but unlike the others its a sad tune of love lost with McGlinn and Hampson both at their finest. Another one new to me was'My Cozy Little Corner In the Ritz' an early Porter tune with him at his sarcastic best and a brilliant rendition. The standards are all briliantly done. 'In the Still of the Night' is my favorite, followed by I Concentrate on You', 'Easy To Love', 'Night and Day' (edging out Sinara's version, but not quite as magical as Fred Astaire's from the movie 'Gay Divorcee', but close) 'I've Got You Under My Skin' is divine, Begin the Beguine and 'Don't Fence me in'. All the others are great versions but none would make my top 50 Porter tunes. With the convenience of tracking with CD's though I program my favorites in and hear an hour of heavenly music from one of my favorite tunesmiths as interpreted by two contemporary masters of our time.

This compilation of modern-day madrigals, the latest in a fascinating series of discs from the San Francisco-based all-male vocal group Chanticleer, won the Grammy for Best Small Ensemble Performance of 1999. The selections range over a variety of styles and aesthetics, from the haunting, hypnotic sounds of Steven Stucky's Cradle Songs to the archaic, ethereal beauty and Eastern inflections of John Tavener's "Village Wedding." There are the soft (and somewhat affected) asperities of Bernard Rands' Canti d'Amor as well as the gentle, almost English pastoralism of Zhou Long's "Words of the Sun" (beautiful!) and the colorfully exotic Orientalism of Chen Yi's Tang Poems. Other examples of the wide range here are the self-conscious busywork of Augusta Read Thomas's Love Songs to the darkly lush, 12-part weave of Steven Sametz's "In Time Of," with its radiant climax and pulsating chordal sonorites like the tolling of bells. All of this Chanticleer sings with striking freshness and commitment, virtuosic to a fare-thee-well, always sensitive to the emotional cues of the texts. The recording, made at Skywalker Ranch in January of 1999, is vivid and warm, and so is much of the music. Truly a winning disc. --Ted Libbey

Transcendent Vocalism.......2005-01-31

This compilation is essential listening, especially (but not exclusively) for those already introduced to the marvels of Chanticleer. It features a wide variety of contemporary madrigals all dedicated to the theme of love. Gorgeous polyphony, entrancing dissonance; the music is very difficult, but Chanticleer's vocalism is exemplary, as always. The whole feel of the album takes some getting used to for the uninitiated. After a few listenings, though, one can fully perceive its unique and sublime beauty.

Highlights abound. The first three tracks, all lullabies by Steven Stucky, are brilliantly executed, but it is track four, Village Wedding by John Taverner, that first knocked my socks off. It seems to represent the absolutely ideal match between composer and performer, between written and sung text. It consists of a wonderful poem by Greek poet Angelos Sikelianos, with a recurring excerpt from the Eastern Orthodox wedding ceremony interspersed throughout. Taverner is himself a member of the Eastern Orthodox church, and the song is as much a spiritual experience as a musical one.

Another fantastic piece is Words of the Sun, by Chinese composer Zhou Long. It is probably the most accessible song on the CD, with numerous lovely subtleties and nuances that can be fully appreciated after multiple exposures.

Lastly, I'd like to express my sincere conviction that In Time Of (by Steven Sametz, set to a poem by E.E. Cummings) is the single most gorgeous piece of music I have ever had the great fortune to hear. The sonority is perfectly balanced, each arching phrase better than the one before. Please, for the sake of pure unadulterated beauty, purchase this CD. You will not regret it.

Beautifully delivered as always, but not my material........2002-07-30

I came to this album as a fan of Chanticleer more than of contemporary art music, though I like to think I do have a certain ear for the stuff. I haven't been educated in it, but I've sung some in my time in choruses, and I learned to appreciate those pieces the way that I learned to appreciate the more classical stuff as a child--by feeling it and hearing it come out of my own body, the ways that it worked, what was exciting, ect. That said, there is a point where I don't get it, and I reached that point all over this album. I thought I'd pass it on because it is hard for most of us to pick this kind of music off the shelf--there will be pieces that skewer us and some that make us fidget. For my part, I am grateful to have the album for the sake of three (long) songs. The Tavner Wedding song itself is probably worth it. But the album will never be put on leisurely.

Lives up to their reputation.......2001-03-07

Just recently had the opportunity to hear Chanticleer in concert...this CD certainly gives a cross section of their range...especially liked the "Tang Poems" and "Words of the Sun", which they performed live...very esoteric mix of musical styles...well worth the purchase for Chanticleer lovers!

One of the best I've picked up in ages.......2000-11-25

First of all let me state that the 4 stars isn't for the performance...which is truly outstanding...it is for a few pieces that are a tad sub-par. I also want to mention that its not that the pieces are modern either, I happen to be extremely sympathetic to modern music.

I usually don't like to do reviews this way, but I'm going to make a few comments piece by piece:

1) CRADLE SONGS - The first two of this trio of lullabies are great...the ones from Brazil & Poland are hauntingly beautiful...I'm not so crazy about the one from Tobago. A fairly strong piece, its certainly interesting.

2) VILLAGE WEDDING - This is one of the best three pieces on the album, and probably the best. Hearing John Tavener's work next to his contemporaries is an easy indicator of why he is considered one of this century's greatest and certainly one of the greatest living composers. Simultaneously it is joyous, austere, reverent & spiritual. Simply beautiful & amazing.

3) CANTI D'AMOUR - This is an up & down work. I'm not sure what the composer had in mind, but I find the first part to be amusing. It reminds me of barbershop quartet. It has more somber moments too that are quite moving. Overall though, its okay.

4) WORDS OF THE SUN - After the Tavener piece, this is my favorite one. I would like to hear some of Zhou Long's other works. It is a very subtle piece. Very Chinese too, yet simultaneously western. This is one of my favorite pieces by eastern composers of western music. Lyrically, it is amazing. Its borrowed from a 20th century Chinese poem that is gorgeous in English, I'm sure its even more so in Chinese. Musically, it is very stirring.

5) TANG POEMS - This piece too is written by a Chinese composer (Chen Yi) and it is distinctly Chinese. I am intrigued at some of the techniques used by the composer. I am really pleased with the piece, although I'm sure some find it a little "too eastern." It is extremely pretty if one is accustomed to eastern melodies. The 2nd part is a bit sharper and probably less accessible than the first part.

6) THE RUB OF LOVE - One of the duller pieces on the album.

7) IN TIME OF - Sublime. The opening few bars are unearthly. Definately one of the three best pieces. They definately need to keep this one in their concert repetoire (along with the Tavener and the two pieces by Chinese composers.) This is one of those works you have to hear to believe.

8) LOVE SONGS - This is a quirky collection of tunes by Augusta Read Thomas. It runs the gamut of serious to extremely silly. There are some strong points here, but some of it is too silly to stand the test of time ("Alas, The Love of Women"). Eventhough it is extremely unconventional, the part entitled "For Stony Limits Cannot Hold Love Out" is powerful. It is piercing & strange, but it really works with the text.

There are times when I love everything on this CD, and times when some of it gets on my nerves. It is, however, never boring and the performances are superb. I highly congratulate Chanticleer for not sitting on their laurels. This is adventursome stuff and it works 90% of the time, which is more than I can say for 99% of the ensembles out there.

I highly recommend this disc for "Village Wedding," "Words of the Sun," "In Time of," and "Tang Poems."

Pick it up, be adventuresome. Enjoy.

Fantastic recording of contemporary choral works.......2000-09-21

Chanticleer is one of the USA's finest choral ensembles, and they have picked a marvelous and diverse program for this recording -- with something that would appeal to absolutely everybody. The inclusion of two "husband-wife" pairs in the choice of music also makes for a special connection to the theme of the disc. Of special note to this reviewer are the "delicious" sonorities of Bernard Rands's "Canti d'Amor" and Augusta Read Thomas's "Love Songs" -- Chanticleer is a group who is able to pull off this difficult music beautifully. This recording was absolutely deserving of the Grammy that is received -- one of the finest discs of modern choral music in the past few years.

Bait and Switch: Rhonda Vincent tries to be a Country Diva again..........2005-09-12

Rhonda Vincent is a talented woman with a very pleasant voice that she uses well. She leads one of the premiere Bluegrass Bands in existence. Her last three Bluegrass recordings have been extremely well-received by critics and fans alike.

All that being said, she also appears to have a strong desire to be the next Reba McIntyre and appearances extend to the fact that she doesn't mind stepping on a few toes and offending a few folks to achieve that goal. Bluegrass has long been a weak "second fiddle" to Top Banana "Big Country", pretty much since the beginning of the rock and roll era. Prior to that Bill Monroe and Flatt and Scruggs played with equal billing to Ernest Tubb and Roy Acuff. With the advent of electric guitars and "Hee Haw" Bluegrass became the hayseed kin.

The hard-core Bluegrass fan kept the faith, though, and Bluegrass stars who "cross-over" are remembered, but not fully accepted in their Country mode. Alison Krauss began to change things with her "Now That I've Found You" album and Bluegrass, which hadn't had a "hit" or a gold record in decades, now has had many since (and including) that recording.

Rhonda Vincent grew up playing Bluegrass, then spent the better part of a decade trying to become a big Country star. Somehow the idea came to go back to Bluegrass and, as noted above, her last three albums were all as well-received as Bluegrass CDs are. She made Grand Ol' Opry appearances and even became the musical voice for Martha White - taking the position previously held with honor by no less than Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs.

Now this album - "Written in the Stars" - is released, and because of how well I liked her previous three bluegrass albums I bought it sight unheard.

I've been had. This CD is neither "new" or "bluegrass". Turns out to be a re-release of a Country album she recorded in 1993.

Is it a good country album? It's all right. It fits right in with the "big hair bunch". The singing is good, the playing is good, the harmonies are good.

It's just not Bluegrass and to lead the potential buyer to think anything else is misleading.

The truth is I like good country very much. But I like good Bluegrass a little better and I STRONGLY dislike being duped.

Rhonda Vincent - Written in the Stars.......2005-09-11

Excellent musicanship and harmonies, and very upbeat. Highly recommended. 'Ain't that Love' is my favorite.

Album Description

"Written in the Stars" is acclaimed vocalist Tom Michael's follow-up to his 1999 critically praised debut,"Sailing On". Released on LML Music, the CD is a stunning collection of pop songs, Broadway and movie favorites, as well as classic standards performed in Tom's warm, expressive style. Among the material covered on this winning collection are the classics of Rodgers and Hammerstein, the Gershwins, Berlin, Sondheim and Bernstein along with the more contemporary works of Elton John, Tim Rice, Carol Bayer Sager, Melissa Manchester and Tom Snow. Among the CD's highlights is Michael's emotional delivery of "This Nearly Was Mine," his inspiring and soaring vocals on the uplifting "Better Than I," and a tender reading of "Two For The Road," which features Downbeat Magazine award-winning jazz guitar virtuoso Fareed Haque. Another standout is Tom's haunting version of "How Deep is the Ocean." With one listen, you will understand why Backstage Magazine hailed him as "one of the most striking singers to emerge in the last few years." The CD also contains the Legrand/Bergman masterpiece "The Summer Knows" beautifully paired with "Autumn Leaves" as well as a lively, rhythmic arrangement of West Side Story's "Something's Coming" with "There's Gotta Be Something Better Than This." A duet with Beckie Menzie of "Lost in the Stars" blended with Elton John's "Written in the Stars" provides a musical showcase for the duo that the Chicago Tribune calls "an ingeniously conceived and searingly sung medley." Billboard Magazine has praised Tom Michael as "one of those voices made to travel far and wide in the world of adult pop." With his new release, "Written In the Stars," Tom proves that it is a laurel well deserved.

BRINGS BACK A MUCH NEEDED SMILE IN MY LIFE !.......2006-02-10

After losing my father, my home, my job and my best friend due to Hurricane Katrina (i live in New Orleans), i was so blessed and surprised to one day while at work hear this VOICE coming from my computer speakers while at work.
The song was "IT MIGHT BE YOU " from this album.
I immediately ordered both of TOM'S cds and have been smiling since.
WHAT A VOICE !!!
If you dont have this one in your collection, RUN NOW and get one.
It has brought much needed joy into my life, and i PROMISE, it will bring you many smiles and joy.

A song stylist to treasure.......2003-04-25

Interestingly, Tom Michael's dreamy voice occasionally sounds like what another, much more famous Michael -- Mr. Feinstein -- seems to be striving valiantly to achieve. I've no wish to diminish Feinstein's own accomplishments, but Tom Michael's pipes and talent are superior to that of any other male song stylist currently active.

Michael's voice has a yearning quality that is absolutely his and utterly unique. What's more, his sincerity and intensity burn through song after (well-arranged) song. There's no over-emoting here. Michael's instinct is unerring, and his interpretations are note-perfect.

But my best recommendation is to stop reading and listen for yourself. I think you will be as won over as I was. And like me, you're likely to look forward to what I hope will be many more CDs from this exceptional artist.

Shine On!.......2003-02-21

A vibrant, well-controlled, and drama-infused voice possessed by someone who understands and obviously feels what he is singing. Tom Michael is a winning performer who connects with the audience's heart immediately. Tom's songs are like old friends. There is a warmth and honesty to his style that pulls you into the emotions of his songs. I smile, I cry, but most of all I feel, even if just for a moment, inspired to sing too. Tom has a beautiful gift that he openly shares with all who hear him. Combined with an exquisite voice, elegant delivery, and extraordinary choice of material, he also pays remarkable attention to lyrics. Tom's orchestra and piano arrangements are terrific as well.

Tom's musical fervor shines through on his "Written In The Stars" CD. You can tell he enjoys singing these songs and it comes across. Tom inhabits each song he sings with a throbbing passion and a generosity of spirit. His voice flows through each song effortlessly. This CD shows Tom is equally at ease with an emotional ballad "Better Than I" or an upbeat tune "I Can't Be Bothered Now/I Hear Music." His voice lends a unique elegance to each track. Tom's rendition of "Two For The Road" is another favorite in this incredible collection.

"Written In The Stars" is simply a delight!

Written In The Stars With A Voice From The Heavens.......2003-02-07

No sophomore jinx here. "Written In The Stars" is the long anticipated (3 and a half long years) followup to Tom Michael's incredible debut "Sailing On." It was going to be a tough task to do - imagine Michael Jackson following up "Thriller" or Bruce Springsteen following up "Born In The USA." That is exactly what Mr. Michael faced and he pulled it off stunningly and triumphantly.. It was definitely worth the wait from one of the best male singers that I have heard in the last ten years.

Without a doubt, the best cut is "Better Than I," from the animated video sequel to Prince Of Egypt. That one cut alone is reason to buy this great CD. His voice literally soars to the heavens on this beautiful song. Other standouts include an old Melissa Manchester gem called "Home To Myself," which I think he does bettter than her, two beautiful obscure songs called Dialogue (with a superb haunting cello accompianant) and It's Time. His beautiful take on "Two For The Road with Fareed Haque on guitar is mesmerizing, as is his version of "How Deep Is The Ocean." My two other favorite cuts are "It Might Be ou" from the movie Tootsie and an emotional tour de force and definitive version of "This Nearly Was Mine."

The album also has several up-tempo numbers, proving that Mr. Michael can "get down" and jam with the rest of them - a cleverly arranged version of "Something's Coming" paired with "There's Gotta Be Something Better Than This" and another mini-medley of "Wonder Why" and "like Someone In Love."

As on "Sailing On," Tom is accompanied by the multi-talented Beckie Menzie (who provided most of the arrangements) and even joins Tom on two duets.

This is one CD that you will listen to again and again.
well done Mr. Michael...now everyone go BUY! BUY! BUY!
