Not that I have anything against Smitty, but where did this Grover Levy disappear to? "There's a life" and "If You Want to Lead Me to Jesus" are two of the best Christian pop songs I have ever heard, and the former is one of my favorite songs period. Solid throughout with several gems on each album, Grover Levy's two albums are a must. Every Christian music fan should have this, but admit it you dont, do you? Does that make me better than you? Yes, indeed it does, but you can bring yourself up to par by buying this album and "Wrestling Angels" too.

5.0 out of 5 stars Grover Deserves Attention, January 19, 2000

By A Customer

I bought this cd when I was 14, and I loved it. Years later, I still love it. Grover Levy is a talented man with an original voice, both musically and as a songwriter. His style is pop, but the cd it is not slow or easy. The songs carry great messages. He deserves more praise than he got for his work! Also check out his second cd from '97, Wrestling Angels.

4.0 out of 5 stars Real good pop music, December 6, 2006

What was I doing in a Christian bookstore? Looking for Grover Levy's CD, the one with There Is A Life -- I'd seen the video on a Xian channel and couldn't get the song out of my head, in the best sense of the term. Just a perfect little pop song.

He has a good voice to begin with, and he shines on ballads that showcase it. Then studio pros let him sing harmony with himself, the result reminiscent of the Everly Brothers. It worked well with the sunny-sounding rock 'n roll music on this CD (less so on the followup CD, Wrestling Angels, which had some stabs at grunge-lite).

In addition to the music CD, there's a kind of electronic press kit disc with clips of Grover and producer Jeff Borders talking about their faith and their music. It also includes the video for "There Is A Life", small and dark but that was the state of multimedia in 1996.

Looks like the record company put a lot of effort into this one, perhaps hoping for some Amy Grant-style crossover into the secular charts. It's a shame it didn't. But who can figure out what will sell? Grover himself sums up the feel of this disc after the last note of the last song fades out: "It's a vibe, man, it's not a science."
