5.0 out of 5 stars Heartbreak, Redemption and Triumph in Melodic Bliss, July 7, 2005

By	Ismail Elshareef "Ismail Elshareef" (West Hollywood, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

It's a sin this album wasn't domestically released in the US as it's only available as an import which tend to be a bit $$. I took a risk and bought it anyway and I have to say I am very satisfied.

It's so much better than Daniel's first album, which I really liked! This release is more mature and well thought-out. Sonically, there's really nothing new in this album, but there is definitely more crooning. The lyrics do tell a story for a change and Daniel sounds so real, especially in "Sorry", which is about his sister.

If I have to pick up favorites, they'll be: Holiness, Show me the real you, Sorry, The Way, Don't give'r it all, and Growing up. I am still listening to it nonstop at work, in the car, at home, at the gym,...etc. It's that good :-)

I cannot recommend this album enough. Like most solo British artists, Daniel Bedingfield is extremely underrated and underexposed here in America. I can't believe his songs aren't playing on the radio instead of that hackneyed music we're all sick and tired of.

4.0 out of 5 stars A very touching well thoughtout album, May 18, 2005

By	A. Vanderheyden (Miyazaki, Japan) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I was a Bedingfield fan instantly when I heard his first CD. Now finally getting my hands on his second CD, I was unsure since I had to have it imported but it was worth it! He's changed a lot in the years since he wrote his previous album. The album is extremely personal, it talks about life, love, and dealing with a near death experience. His words are selected carefully and specifically. He is mastering his craft. Nothing is an accident. I absolutely love some of the songs...especially "Sorry" and "All the Little Children", and "Draw You".
Now as for why I gave it four stars and not five, simply because I loved his dance tracks on his first CD, those aren't really here. But his other songs make up for it!
