Editorial Reviews

On THE ONE THING, Michael showcases his powerful voice and songwriting expertise to full effect. "I Said I Loved You...But I Lied" is one of the best songs of his career. Understated and emotional, his poignant vocal expresses the one thing that the word "love" isn't strong enough to state: his feelings.

Michael Bolton is one of the few artists out there, who you know when you buy their album it will be quality work.

Every time Michael sings he goes to a place in his mind that reflects the type of song he is doing.

This album is one of his finest it is filled with songs that come from from his heart.

Anybody that likes Michael Bolton would definitely not be disappointed with this album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Singing from His Soul, November 25, 1999

Michael Bolton is a true musician in every sense of the word. He sings with all the passion and soulfulness of a man who feels his emotions. In turn, he shares his insight and interpretation of the lyrics and the melodies using thoughtful expressions. My favorite song on this album is "Soul of My Soul", even though this particular song was not one of the number one hits. The tempo and melody are unusual and the lyrics are incredible. You have to hear this song! a true love song...Of course, "Said I loved You, But I Lied" is a wonderful song, somewhat haunting, yet, a song of contradictions, leaves the listener with a pondering wonder..Michael sings with all he's got and has a lusty and sensuous tone that keeps us waiting for each new song!

THE ONE THING is a really enjoyable album. I bought it the day it was released,which was November 16,1993. This album only spawned one major hit,though. That's SAID I LOVED YOU...BUT I LIED. That song appeared on the follow-up compilation GREATEST HITS 1985-1995. Bolton covers Bill Withers' LEAN ON ME which sounds really great. It was previously covered by Club Nouveau(in 1987).
