Lets face it all of these songs are from the man himself. He gave it his all when he sang each and every one of these songs. The true Bolton fan will really get this cd. It's nothing but the best from the Best!!!

I really thought A Woman Like You was the best of all Michaels CDs till Vintage. I LOVE this cd and hope that he makes more like this. He just sounds so good. My son introduced me to the world of Michael Bolton and I'm going to buy this cd for him for his birthday. I have almost all the cds.
Thanks and keep them coming.

This is the best CD you can ever find on this earth. Each song is so soul touching, it really cools down your temper, the words on each song are true and straight to the point. If you are heartbroken you are catered for and if you are in love it makes you feel deeply in love. What else can one ask for? Michael Bolton has the greatest voice of all. Keep on giving us the best..

Read the name of this album. That's all you need to know.

18 stars.

This album had touched my heart and soul like nothing else ever has. You can almost feel the emotion in his expressive voice. Every time I listen to this album it is all too easy to imagine that Michael is right there singing to me. This is a must have for any music fan.

It is just unbelieveable to know that when it really comes to some perfromers out there, they really are highly overlooked within their souls of the voices. Yet, we don't admire them like performers and idols, and we treat them like garbage. That is exactly the case of Michael Bolton. He has truly made an impact on our music industry during the late 80's and early 90's, but we just don't think about him anymore. I think it is sad, because he has a very elegant voice, and a true seduction for lovers out there.

The Ultimate Collection, consists of nearly two dozen of Bolton's biggest tunes from his dynamic career. Still, many people can't even seem to find this project out there. It is just a great anthology to Michael Bolton's time with Sony. Still, I was a little bit dissapointed within some of the collection. Considering that the entire Greatest Hits 1985-1995 is on here, all 17 tracks as one half of the record. On the other hand, there are just some great songs on here that were added on to after his other collection was released, including songs from the Timeless records that were also overlooked, including To Love Somebody, Sexual Healing, and Go The Distance, which earned an Oscar nomination in 1998. There are also some other great songs here as well including, That's What Love Is All About, Soul Provider, and his rendition of Cher's I Found Someone, which he wrote nevertheless.

I really don't know if a lot of Michael Bolton's fans would be surprised about not purchasing this collection, but there is a little more to offer here. If you can find this collection, go ahead and pick it up. If you don't want it, it will bring into your path.

...not much to say here than this- Michael Bolton is in my opinion the best male voice in the music industry - its sexy and strong and his best hits here are great! Missing some great duets that should be included here (e.g.THIS IS THE TIME)its a must if you like love songs! beautifull collection!

It was pretty logical SONY would have released this collection.
After all Michael has been one of their best milk cows when it comes to AC and Top 40 charts.
In buying this 2 CD compilation, you will basically buy back The Greatest Hits 1985/1995 tracklist (minus the Diane Warren-penned THIS RIVER), the singles off The Timeless Vol. I and II albums, plus the gorgeous ONCE IN A LIFETIME from The Love Songs collection.
But this time - even if for the very last one - SONY did something good for Michael's fans: LOVE IS THE POWER is finally available on a compilation as well as his Christmas holiday seasons album.
NESSUN DORMA is the one tune chosen to represent his work with My Secret Passion - The Arias CD.
And to top it off you get the Disney production of A DREAM IS A WISH YOUR HEART MAKES...though i do not know from which album???
Whatever, SONY is behind mr. Bolton but their job is excellent!
This is a must have!

Wonder how some artists end up in bargains bins at your local music store ? Relive the precious BOLTON moments and you'll soon understand how a balding artist once CHARTED and is now lucky to open for a SESAME STREET PARADE at a local WAL-MART. His catalogue of songs are not the problem, as a writer BOLTON can compose a decent pop song, however as an artist he is FINGERNAILS ON A CHALK BOARD. Totally IRRITATING ! He best get use to being referred to as a "HAS BEEN of THE 90S" ! This CD is the perfect example of HORRID OVERDONE POP VOCALS from THE 1990s ! Stay away from this stinker !
