Harry Connick Jr-Your Songs REVIEW


I was recently contacted by One2One Network to have the pleasure of participating in a review for the new Harry Connick Jr. CD-Your Songs. I was so excited because I LOVE Harry Connick, his music and voice are so relaxing and soothing to listen to. I received the CD the day it was released (September 22). What an absolutely beautiful and brilliant CD! I love this type of music and if you're a fan of Harry Connick Jr. this album will definitely not disappoint you.

A little bio on Harry Connick Jr.:
>He grew up in New Orleans and it is here where he found his musical roots and his love for music and performing. His early talent was shaped by such artists as James Booker and Ellis Marsalis. Harry was 5 years old when he started performi
ng.
>His first widespread success as a musician was contributing to the score of When Harry Met Sally. The film's success led to Harry Connick Jr.s first platinum album.
>Not only is Harry a musician, he is an actor as well having starred in such movies as Memphis Belle, Lit
tle Man Tate, Copycat,Indepence Day and Hope Floats.
>He has done 28 albums, several multi-platinum and gold, taken home Grammy, Tony and Emmy Awards and Golden Globe, Cable Ace and Oscar nominations.

There's no stopping the talent that Harry Connick Jr has and that talent is shown fully on this CD.

Here is a song list for Your Songs as well as who performed the original version of each song:

>All The Way (Frank Sinatra)
>Just The Way You Are (Billy Joel)
>Can't Help Falling In Love With You (Elvis Presley)
>And I Love Her (The Beatles)
>(They Long To Be) Close To You (The Carpenters)
>Besame Mucho
>The Way You Look Tonight
>First Time Ever I Saw Your Face (Roberta Flack)
>Your Song (Elton John)
>Some Enchanted Evening (Don McLean)
>Who Can I Turn To? (Tony Bennett)
>Smile (Charlie Chaplin)
>Mona Lisa (Nat King Cole)

My favorite song on this CD was definitely Your Song. I love the Elton John version, but Harry does it with soul, his voice is so smooth and sexy. This whole CD is perfect for a candlelit dinner and a nice bottle of wine. The arrangements of all the songs are flawless: a romantic CD for sure.
