Another wonderful album from the talented John Barrowman March 2, 2010 Priv8teer (UK) 12 out of 12 found this review helpful
John Barrowman claims in interviews that "what you see is what you get". I don't believe him because inside the enthusiastic, passionate and endearingly giggly entertainer is an equally passionate but quieter, more reflective soul who doesn't always get a fair amount of airtime. However, in this very personal choice of songs, this aspect of his singing style is allowed to shine through especially in the slower numbers where his mellifluous voice seemingly effortlessly floats up to his higher register without strain. When I saw "You'll Never Walk" alone on the track listing I thought that this would be one to skip, but JB has reclaimed it from the football terraces and returned it to its roots as a song of love and hope. His wistful rendering of "Memory" is also refreshing. And of course he sings his heart and lungs out in the more up-tempo showstopping numbers but always with the lyrics clearly enunciated and the notes spot-on (well you would expect nothing less from such a consummate professional).
So buy this disc even if like me you don't recognise some of the tracks or think you won't like some of the tracks you do recognise - I guarantee you will be entertained.
Just a minor production niggle - the informative sleeve notes in what must be in 4 point font in white on black are really difficult to read, but is slightly better than Music Music Music's pale salmon pink on white.

What a voice.......... June 3, 2010 Sylvia Hi all,
This CD is really one of the best I own. John Barrowman is a very special kind of entertainer!!! I discovered him only a few weeks ago when our Si-Fi Channel aired a few episodes of Torchwood. After googling his name a world of song opened up to me.............. Via Amazon UK I ordered a few CD's, his books and the DVD boxes of Torchwood. What a joy is this man, a beautiful voice and many talents more. Looking forward to more of John Barrowman!
Pure musical pleasure. April 8, 2010 Cindy (Perth, Western Australia) I've always been a fan of musicals and each one generally has a song which stands out. The selection on this cd ticks most of the boxes for what I like to listen to. What makes it special however are the arrangements and of course the quality of John Barrowman's voice. From happy, uptempo, to where are the tissues, the emotions are so real and beautiful. Best of all though is the feeling at the end of the cd, contentment. I'm sure I will be playing this a lot.
Incredibly impressed April 3, 2010 S. Watson (USA) By far the best album yet from the multi-gifted John Barrowman. Love him or hate him onscreen, there's no denying his considerable vocal talents. "The Kid Inside" still makes me grin.
