5.0 out of 5 stars This Single is Great, April 15, 2003

By	Aaron Esman "survivorfan1989" (Pound Ridge, NY United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

When I first heard this song on American Idol, I thought it was decent. When I heard the studio version I fell in love with it. It features all of the top 10 American Idol finalists including Clay Aiken, Kimberly Caldwell, Corey Clark, Julia DeMato, Joshua Gracin, Kimberly Locke, Carmen Rasmusen, Ricky Smith, Ruben Studdard, and Trenyce. This is worth buying and $.50 of this cd go to the red cross.

3.0 out of 5 stars Warning, May 6, 2003

By	Glenn from Baltimore (Baltimore, MD United States) - See all my reviews

If you liked the performance of this song on the television show, you should know that the 10 finalists singing it were backed on that performance by a full choir -- which was offstage and therefore unseen. The choir added tremendous depth and truly magnificent harmony parts that enhanced the song beautifully.

That choir is absent on this studio version, and you only have the 10 finalists singing. While more authentic, it's also less magnificent and stirring. So, my point is if you've only heard the TV show version and you're basing your decision to buy it on that, you might be disappointed.

That said, this version's not bad.
