- Lacks the gravitas of 1st album
I was very excited to hear that Blake had a new album coming out so I quickly ordered this one. I have to say, while I still love their music, it came as a disappointment. Quite a few of the songs that are being covered are too well known and Blake's version is not that different from the original. What made their first album great was the unique way their voices gave character to well-known pieces of music. This album however lacks the warmth and originality of the first. It is a bit too "pop" ... Read More

- Quality Singing
This CD has a conservative song selection and a conservative style, which some people may not like. However, the across the board musicianship of this group is superb!! The pitch and harmonies are vastly superior to Il Divo for example, but you have to be able to 'hear' perfect pitch and harmonies and really care about quality, to know the difference.--:)---We don't have classically trained musicians like this in the USA, putting out albums like this anymore, so you don't know how spoiled you ...

Rating: - ok
2 of the 'songs' are only around 30seconds of music (intro), so there's really only 11 songs on the album. A couple of songs seem to use different words to other artists, and "time to say goodbye" keeps changing between english & italian.

Meanwhile the backing percussion at times is far too heavy. The title track and Wild Mountain Thyme are too much the same all the way through. And sorry, Ollie, but those top notes are strained in Nella Fantasia - Amici and Il ... Read More

- What a disappointment
I waited with great anticipation for the new Blake CD, but what a disappointment this one is! When will groups like Blake and Il Divo learn that cover songs may help them get started but eventually they need some original music otherwise buyers will buy something else! I hardly noticed that I bought a new CD because the music is SO well known and at best their interpretation of these old songs is at best, average! This CD should have been their first release and not the second - the first one is SO different ... Read More
