5.0 out of 5 stars a "beautiful" album., April 15, 2000

By	allan [e-mail] (P.E.I. CANADA) - See all my reviews

A truly excellent CHRIS De BURGH ALBUM ,"5 stars" in every respect,to quote ole CHRIS himself "this is the album i've always wanted to make, a live studio recording of personal favourites ,old classics and new songs with full orchestra and choir" The sound and production are superb, his voice clear and strong,backed by the London Session Orchestra,every one of the 12 songs are great. I think Roy Orbison would be happy with his rendition of "In Dreams" . I've played "Beautiful Dreams" countless times, and every new listen is as uplifting as the last. Easily my favourite De Burgh album, every De Burgh fan should have this , you won't be disappointed, get it. It will be his masterpiece for sure, i can't see how he could perform another any better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Indeed, July 11, 2000

By	Arlington J. Trombley Jr. "arttrombley" (Malone, NY United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The arrangements on these songs make the love songs more romantic. The addition of classics revisited make this one his best albums. He includes a Beatles tune which I loved. The only thing better than this album was seeing the concert version. This is one of those albums that will make a romantic evening even more special.

5.0 out of 5 stars This One is Special...Don't Hesitate, August 10, 2005

Hidden among Chris DeBurgh's endless "repackaging of material" albums hides this gem.

Chris DeBurgh in his best singing form...and a full orchestra. Pure Heaven. Don't just stand there! Buy what will be the best album of your collection.
