5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the extra effort, February 22, 2008

I don't know why this guy isn't a bigger deal in the US. He won the first and only World Idol title (over Kelly Clarkson), and since then he has been rockin' out his own music, with thoughtful, touching lyrics and crazy pop hooks. The new CD is more of the same but ends with a soft, moving ballad Dance With Me. He has a great voice and seems like a real person, untouched by the trappings of pop stardom. Maybe that's how they do it in Norway. Highly recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars Another home run for Kurt!, February 27, 2008

That makes three for three---his third album, all of them brilliant! Rolling down from the land of firs and clover, wet artic streets and twilight skies; this Norwegian's haunting and powerful voice continues to prove that he is the ONLY World Idol, the only suitable to wear that crown. Each song imparts a sincerity, genuinely felt heartbreak and life perspective that is rare and clarion. It is stunning that this songwriter/vocalist imparts more emotion in English, than few of that native tongue have in recent years. Kurt is the definition of "lightening in a bottle"; the kind of stellar talent that outshines all other Idols.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pop album from World Idol, June 9, 2008

By 

Cara Wallace (Tucson, AZ) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Push Push (Audio CD)

Here's Push, Push, pop album from world idol Kurt Nilsen. What I liked? Sensitivity! If you're not crying halfway through about this guy's lost and found love, you're not listening closely enough to the lyrics. This has what so many pop songs are missing, real world situations and feelings. It may be aimed towards the older set but younger people can still enjoy it too. What else is there to like? Perfect vocals and a distinct lack of hollywood overproduction. Not to say that it's rough by any means, just real. He sounds the same in the studio and in concert, which is more than I can say for many top-40 artists right now. If you like this, a slightly better album is Hallelujah Live; his concert album done in tandem with other Norwegian artists. Very nice upbeat music with meaningful lyrics.
