A Kid's Review

This review is from: Love Songs (Audio CD)

I Brought this album and i haven't stop listening to it. It's a good album to just sit down relax and put it in you cd player and just jam along with him. On Who's Loving You I never heard a 11-year old kid sing like that. this is a musthave people you would not take this out of your cd player trust me.

this Brother Laid something on these Songs.Soulful&on top of His Game.He was in tune to the times&Vibe.I have these songs on various J5&MJ Solo Compilations&they still sound fresh to this day.start to finish you hear a Artist on top of His game.a Must have.the Arrangements&Production fit Him to a "T".when you hear "Who's Loving You" for instance you gotta remind yourself He wasn't even a Teenager when He sung that Song with such Force&Drive.MJ bringing the SOul.also the timing of this Album couldn't be better because "Invincible" one of it's Strong Points is that it Showcases MJ doing Slow-Jams really well.and this Set Points this out.

This collection of love songs by Michael Jackson demonstrates his genius at a rather tender age; and I'm extremely impressed. Michael could take anything and make it sound so beautiful; and his love songs are particularly good examples of that. This album features Michael in his natural element; he sings faultlessly and that's grand. He always gave blood to make his performances shine; and his adoring audiences loved him for it. The quality of the sound on this CD is excellent and I like that artwork, too.

"Who's Lovin' You" has Michael singing with The Jackson 5; they make this fantastic with their sophisticated phrasing--and wow, how Michael's vocals stand out as being so special! His excellent diction enhances his performance all the more; I love it. "Who's Lovin' You" also uses the keyboard and percussion to great advantage. "A Fool for You" is very beautiful; Michael's voice is in excellent form and this song is memorable, to say the least. "Everybody's Somebody's Fool" gets the royal treatment from Michael; he sings his part to perfection--and beyond! The others sing and harmonize very well; and it makes for a very strong yet beautiful number that's also easy on the ear.

"Got to Be There" was one of Michael's very biggest early hits; and the rest of the family singers shine brightly as they give him outstanding backup. Michael hits those high notes seemingly effortlessly. Of course, we know it really wasn't all that easy--Michael's talent always carried him through. "We've Got a Good Thing Going" has a terrific sound and beat to it; Michael delivers this like the pro he was and still remains! "We've Got a Good Thing Going" is easily a major highlight of this album.

"You Are There" stuns me with its natural beauty; Michael sings this with all his heart and soul; the music is just right for this number. Wisely, however, the musicians never try to steal the show away from Michael--he stands squarely front and center right where he belongs! "One Day in Your Life" is also very poignant and I love that melody--what a gorgeous number this is!

"Wings of My Love" charms me with its beauty; Michael sings this flawlessly and he is amazingly able to convey all the subtle nuances of the lyrics as he sings them. The strings are used to great advantage on "Wings of My Love," too. The album ends wonderfully with Michael as a member of The Jackson 5; they perform "I'll Be There" better than any group could ever have done it. Incredible!

Michael Jackson may not be with us anymore; but clearly he lives on through his music. This is a wonderful album for his fans; and it's also a great introductory CD for people just discovering the magical artistry of Michael Jackson.

Rest in peace, Michael! We will always love you!
