In the five decades that Cliff Richard has entertained us, he has been brave enough to venture into all kinds of different styles, and with this one, he "covertly" brings us into the contemporary Christian mode. "The Only Way Out" while originally intended to be another hit single in the style of "Devil Woman" or "We Don't Talk Anymore" is really a song about turning to God when things go wrong. Most of the other songs are likewise spiritual in nature, including his tasty version of Chris Rice's "Little Town," which is the Christmas carol altered in tempo and in melody, but nevertheless catchy and infectious. Cliff also does a nice rendition of the standard "The Water is Wide." The darker tunes, "Son of Thunder" and "Thief in the Night" are also songs concerning the second coming, and how we should prepare ourselves.
As always, Richard's voice is crystalline and the musicians and arrangements perfect. It's hard to believe that Richard has been able to maintain a level of popularity, that only few have been able to sustain. Enjoy this one, it's one of his best.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

My all time favourite from this album is 'Thief in the Night'. It is an incredible song taking you from slow to fast back to slow. It also has an awesome message that Time will not last forever. The other songs are great too, but some highlights for me are 'It Has To Be You, It Has To Be Me', 'The Water Is Wide', and 'Be In My Heart'

If You are A Cliff fan and don't know this record, You have NO idea what you are missing. This is a "Christian Album." But if I did not tell you that, You would not know it! Most Christian rock albums can bore someone to death! 10 to 14 tracks of...GOD said this and Jesus said that, Can get old quick even for a christian. This CD almost never mentions God or Jesus by name so you can take them as normal songs about any man/woman relationship. This is the best part of the record. Take the songs to heart about your love life and they will make sense to you. Or take them as you talking to GOD, Either way it is very moving. Cliff said himself EMI Records in 1982 had no clue this was a Christian album when they first heard it. They just thought they were great songs. Take them the way they hit you most and you will find comfort and hope.
