Matt Chadwick is under-rated, I think he can go far if he wants to. If I were him I would prepare myself and go to America to try to get a music contract. I think he would enter the industry and become big in no time.

Dont give up Matt.
Go for it before its too late, (Do it for the girls!).

4.0 out of 5 stars A good showcase of Australian Talent., October 29, 2003

By	P. Humphrey (Arncliffe, NSW Australia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A 14 Track cd from the 12 Finalists of Australian Idol.

Track 1: Rise Up - Australian Idol final 12. Its an OK song, I do find alot the lyrics rather tacky though, we're gonna rise up, fly like eagles etc etc but it is ok as the opening track. I would give it 3/5

Track 2: Dirty Girl - Rob Mills. AWESOME SONG, upbeat, fun and funky 5/5

Track 3: Dance with You - Rebekah LaVauney. LOVE IT, RnB done with sytle, Rap by Levi, Excellent Song 5/5

Track 4: What a Wonderful World - Guy Sebsatian. A cover version of an old classic which Guy has put his own stamp on. Its OK 2/5

Track 5: Burn for you - Peter Ryan. A cover version of a John Farnham song. Done well. 3/5

Track 6: Ladies - Cle Wootton. Wow, another excellent track. Bit of Pop/RnB LOVE IT 5/5

Track 7: 1 thing leads to another - Paulini Curuenavuli. Nice little pop song, reminds me of something Anatascia might do. I think the song itself lets Paulini's voice down a bit though 3/5

Track 8: Wide awake & dreaming - Matt Chadwick. An inoffensive slice of pop. Its OK but could definately fall asleep listening to it 2/5

Track 9: Starting all over again - Shannon Noll. This is NOT 1 of Shannon's better moments. Like Paulini I think this song lets Shannon down. Sounds like something that has come of the UK TV show "Heartbeat". 2/5

Track 10: Always & Forever - Lauren Buckley. A really nice pop song that works well with Laurens voice. 4/5

Track 11: Closer - Levi Kereama. Rnb/Pop, Good song but doesn't stand out enough. 3/5

Track 12: The show must go on - Kelly Cavuoto. A heavier rock tinged track and its really good. Kelly has a great voice for this style of music 4/5

Track 13: You believe in me - Cosima De-Vito. Another song that I could fall asleep to. It doesn't quite cut it, something about it misses the mark and personally I find her voice quite annoying 2/5

Track 14: Movin on - Marcia Hines - A judge on Australian Idol(feat Aust Idol Girls). This is a great up tempo number that shows us all what an amazing vocalist Marcia Hines is. 4/5

By the way, I am a 35 year old male so maybe my opinions of some of these songs will not be the same as other peoples but I do believe that all up we have a CD that all Australians can be proud of.
