Billy's "Oklahoma" Is Excellent !!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Oklahoma / Warm & Fuzzy (Audio CD)
"Oklahoma" is one of the best songs I've heard in recent years! Between the skillfully crafted lyrics that build to a powerful climax, and the amazing young singer whose emotionally expressive voice carries us there, this song is very moving. Just 11 years old when he recorded this, Billy Gilman sings with more emotion (and skill) than most adult singers. His voice is rich, clear and powerful - and tender at times. Personally, "Oklahoma" is my favorite song from his "One Voice" album. I still get goose bumps when Billy sings "...all at once the tears came rolling in..."The "flip side" is a delightful Christmas song called "Warm and Fuzzy" from Billy's "Classic Christmas" album. This is a catchy tune that benefits a lot from Billy's youthful sound. Billy Gilman has an astonishing gift ... he's a genuine prodigy. If you liked "One Voice" (and maybe even if you didn't), I'll bet you'll like this excellent single.

A HEARTWARMING WORK OF ART,
By
This review is from: Oklahoma / Warm & Fuzzy (Audio CD)
I recently saw the video and heard this wonderful song. It is a very moving account of how a young boy and his father meet each other for the very first time. Billy Gilman bravely sings of how he felt during this encounter and his rich voice, strong lyrics and clear vision have truly made this a remarkable work. I hope Mr. Gilman receives an award for this work. It is one of the best songs I have heard in recent times and the video is of extraordinary caliber. If I could rate this even more stars, I would gladly do so. In the meantime, we'll be praying for Billy Gilman to do something like this again. This is truly an outstanding work of art that will resonate in one's heart long after enjoying it.

Oklahoma, Listen and Watch a grown man cry,
By Tim (Manchester,NH) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Oklahoma / Warm & Fuzzy (Audio CD)
The first time I heard the song "Oklahoma", was while watching the video, I had never heard of Billy Gilman, but as the goose bumps rose from the tear-jerker song, I grabbed a pencil and paper and wrote down the artist and the name of the song, I knew I had to have it, I went out the next day looking for the CD, and found it, Billy's Music needs to get promoted more, people need to hear this One voice, they'll be glad they did, Billy is a Super-Star!!

Oklahoma "touching and heartfelt",
By barbara miraben (florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Oklahoma / Warm & Fuzzy (Audio CD)
i feel that this is by far the best song i have ever heard.the way he sings this song is so powerful. i feel that he is a prodigy and that he is the first child star to ever touch your heart in a way you never thought possible. every time i hear this song i cry during the same line "and all at once the tears came rollin in". the point being made in the song is so real to many people because many people also do not meet there father until later on in life. this song to me will always be number one.

Billy Still A Hit!,
By "kathmamj" (Cincinnati, OH USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Oklahoma / Warm & Fuzzy (Audio CD)
This song, off of the original album, is by far one of my most favorite tracks. It is the story of a kid meeting his father for the first time, and who better to sing it than the most talented young person alive, Billy Gilman. I'm sure this single will do just as well as his first, "One Voice". Both songs are a tribute to what young people can accomplish in our world today, as well as sending out a good message or something people can really relate to in their own lives. I myself did not meet my father until later in life, and can really relate to your song. Thank you so much Billy!

Heartwarming,
By A 12-year old music fan (Clarksville,AR USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Oklahoma / Warm & Fuzzy (Audio CD)
Even though Billy is one of the youngest country singers his heartwarming voice tops the ages of all of them great singers. His music is also inspirational. I sung One Voice at a talent show last year and got 1st place and it made a couple of audience members cry, thats how much it can touch one's heart.I hope this review was helpful to you.

Amazing song from an AMAZING child,
By Funkee Monkee "Kristyn" (Hampton, GA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Oklahoma / Warm & Fuzzy (Audio CD)
Only two child stars just..blow my mind with their talent. And that is Aaron Carter and, of course, the prodigy Billy Gilman. I don't get why people are saying this is about Billy meeting his dad-it's not. It's about an orphaned boy meeting his father (and dad's family) for the first time and Billy just plays the boys' little brother. I can relate to this song because I didn't meet my father until I was 10. All in all, beautiful vocals, beautiful lyrics, beautiful child!
