Customer Reviews

Extremely Under-Rated
With Bryn Christopher, it's very much Gnarls Barkley meets Amy Winehouse.

Some songs are dark, sensual and passionate while others manage to explode from the speakers in an array of delightful pop, soul, r n b and jazz.

The opening single, Help Me is a fast paced bout of jazzed up dance which immediately gets the feet tapping, setting you up for the album's notoriously slick track lineup.

And the haunting smilin' may remind fans of Gnarls Barkley's summer smash hit Crazy, especially with its cool drum beat, modest riff and insanely catchy hook. The track is easily comparable to Barkley's crazy and arguably remains the album's dark horse.

While you'll notice positive elements of Winehouse and Gnarls Barkley in Christopher's music, The Way You Are even draws similarities to Macy Gray with Christopher's impressively varied vocals.

Other noticeably standout tracks are The Quest, Found A New Love, The Way You Are and the infectious album title, My World.

The closing track my kinda woman may at first seem like a wishy-washy love ballad, yet when you let Christopher's raw voice and sentimental song writing take over, the song melts into a heart warming slab of magic. And when you give the closing song a few minutes you'll notice Christopher's bonus song Taking Me Over, an under rated gem with slow, catchy build ups and an explosively passionate chorus that.. well.. momentarily shocks you with its awe and takes over..

I'm not exaggerating when I say that there's not a bad track on the album. Every song is smooth, slick and refreshingly powerful. Make no mistake about this talented singer and songwriter. Bryn Christopher's My World is incredibly under-rated.

Enjoy !!
this album stands out in the music landscape at the moment. His voice is great, the beat is catchy - all the tracks are good and I keep listening over and over!

Love it!
I first saw BC performing on a music channel, doing The Quest. I loved this song straight away and it made me look him up and download the song. Then when I realised there was an album as well I had to get that too! All the songs are fantastic and if you like the clip on the Amazon page then you will love the whole album. Buy it!
