When they were casting about for someone to play Dusty Springfield in a biopic a few years back, I suggested Jo O'Meara. As far as I know, she was never considered for the part, but I still think she'd have been great. She's a versatile singer, and she can act, and she's got the `60s-era pop star look. Donovan might have written a song about her. Of course, she doesn't really sound like Dusty, and that's to her credit. She sounds like nobody so much as herself. And, after singing lead on a string of hits as front-person for the S Club, she's finally coming into her own as an adult performer. One look at the cover photos on "Relentless" and you know this young woman is a force to be reckoned with. The bad news is that the material on "Relentless" doesn't always show her off to advantage. I like a lot of these songs, especially the title track and "You Didn't Know," for which Jo herself takes co-writing credit, but nothing here really knocks the socks off me, although "Relentless" comes close and "What Hurts the Most" is as catchy as anything she did with the S-Clubbers. The arrangements are uniformally tasteful, if a bit on the "safe" side, and I like the fact that the producers haven't settled for a generic sound. However, the reason to buy this album is to revel in Jo's sultry, soaring vocals; they make even the most mediocre songs sound like instant classics.

say what you want about both her and S CLub. but you can't say that they, nor er can't sing b/c you'd be lying. out of all of them, Jo does have the strongest voice. [as showcased in "Reach and "Never Had A Dream Come True] this album is no different. vocally she rises to the challenge everytime especially w/ the single that Rascal Flatts so slyly remade here in the U.S., "What Hurts The Most".and the other songs are great too but the only reason I gave this album 3 1/2 stars is b/c it's an album full of ballads. while I do love ballads, I would love to hear a club jam or two thrown in the mix just change it up a bit. but otherwise it is a good CD you'll just have to listen to half now and half later like I did since it's full of ballads. but I do hope to hear more from here in the future. her voice is amazing !!!

I have high expectations for Jo, so I was so glad I got this CD. All the songs on the CD are great and I've listened to every song at least 50 times and I still listen to this CD today. Definitely worth getting!!
