5.0 out of 5 stars Different album..Same Israel, November 8, 2010

I gotta say Israel never makes the same album twice. At first I found this release to be disappointing because I was looking to more "Moving forwards", "I Receives", "Just Wanna Say" etc..but I gave it another chance and realized besides how impressive the production..lyrically Israel conveys great/positive messages. While there may not be many praise & worship songs you can use at church, this album is more mainstream and can easily attract different types of people.

Standouts include: "Hosanna", "You Won't Let Go", "Others", "Our God", and "Name of Love".

Highly recommend this album to everyone: and to those who don't love it right away--give it another listen without trying to compare it to his previous albums..Welcome to the Love Revolution (4.5 stars)

Basically, if you liked, "The Power of One" you will probably like this album. I would say it is a small step below The Power of One, but still good none the less. It is typical Israel - always some insane chord progressions that will leave you utterly baffled (Yahweh), and always at least one song that provides a brand new sound that you have never really heard a gospel artist explore before (You Won't Let Go, Name of Love)

Worth the purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Album yet!, October 7, 2010

Anwar Sawyer - See all my reviews

This review is from: Love God. Love People (Audio CD)

I love the upbeat flavor mixed with juicy harmony. The production and arrangement of each track is done brilliantly. From track 1 to the last track, you are put on a roller coaster ride. I'm recommending this album to everyone I see. Every single song could be #1 hit for any secular radio station. This album should win a Grammy. You should buy this album because it wont leave your cd player or stop playing on your ipod.
