"Everlasting" is a complete pleasure to my senses, from first track to last. From the dulcet rhythms of "Together We Will Conquer", to the breathtaking beauty of "Everlasting Light", the diversity of sound on this CD keep it a regular in my CD player nearly a year after its release. "Mercy Follows" and "Breakthrough" make me move with their danceable beats, while "Deep" leaves me swaying in an ethereal dreamland of electronic splendor. "Wildflower" and "We Are Free" and "Young At Heart" prove to live up to Ryan's wonderful, uplifting style. "Sing To You", "Time Between Us" and "Dedicated" stand out as examples of how a true talent like Ryan Farish can make electronic music sound heartwarming, romantic, and inspirational like no one else in the business!

Anyone who purchased "Beautiful" must own "Everlasting". It is a keepsake of the evolution of a new style of music that Ryan Farish is taking to the top, a style that's really all his own.
Beautiful

Having been a fan of Ryan Farish's works I waited with baited breath for this cd to come out and boy was I not surprised or disappointed in fact Ryan has outdone himself yet again on this cd!! Beautiful uplifting tunes with a mutitude of instruments all played by Ryan himself and then mixed stands him apart then most in his genre!! Ryan has introduced beautiful vocals onto this latest cd and they also are not short of amazing.

No matter my mood or what I am doing be it working driving or just chilling out Ryan's music is a staple for me!! I encourage you to take a listen for yourself before you base your opinion on anyone's but your own!! You won't be disappointed once you hear it for yourself!! I would give more stars but this is not an option.Everlasting

As an owner of two of Farish's previous CDs, I was looking forward to "Everlasting", and it doesn't disappoint. The Amazon review further up the page says it all, pretty much. It is different from those previous works. However it is still the same Farish sound, with the one-finger piano work and the other sounds recognizable from previous CDs. I would have given it more stars but there aren't any songs that catch me like on the previous CDs. I know that makes my rating more subjective than usual, but...oh well. This one is a worthy addition to the Farish collection and I look forward to his next!

Everlasting (2006) is very well done -- good instrumental album and great production -- relaxing, spacey, ethereal music. If you liked Beautiful, Farish's debut album from 2004, you will like this outing also -- you might even find it hard to differentiate between the two, I did. Everlasting stands on its own, but sounds like Beautiful, part 2.

I discovered Ryan Farish's works watching the weather channel (I was a weather nut in college at the Univeristy of Oklahoma) and he has not dissapointed with any of his albums, this one following suit in a grand selection of music!

A nice blend of sounds. Very relaxing and enjoyable for the whole family. My 14 year old niece loves it!

Like so many new-age artists, Ryan Farish has a great ear for melodies. Unlike most new-age artists, Ryan Farish has rhythmic problems. He likes to use the delay effect on his piano, but either it is not sycronized with the tempo of the song or he is simply being too sloppy with his playing (sometimes it's one problem and sometimes it's both). I don't know how he let those takes make it on to the final album. Also, the massively loud reverse cymbal sounds are way overused and make the entire album very abrasive very quickly.
