Customer Reviews

Wow! This is a seriously good album.
This is a seriously good album from a lady with loads of vocal talent - this is going to be a global smash hit. Susan's performances are just sublime and the arrangements are perfect. 'Wild Horses' is simply wonderful, but there is much more. Susan has a great range, but her smoky, bluesy lower register comes to the fore here ('Cry Me River' is superb). 'How Great Thou Art' has a purity that Enya would be proud of. The joy goes on - there is not a duff track on this album. I predict it will go straight to No. 1 in the charts on both sides of the Atlantic and beyond. A MUST buy (and I really mean that!)

I was gobsmacked
I was very apprehensive about her album as i thought they have her sing pap and we'd never hear from the dear lady again! However it's a little twee in places but I think the album's worth buying just for her version of "Cry Me a River' whoever selected that song was a genius! each time i hear it I go nah it's not her. However "Up to the Mountain" will have grown men crying as it's just so moving. Not all of the songs are for me but it's far better than Leona Lewis's debut album which I found hard to listen to despite her having a great song. "Amazing Grace" is done quite well as you can hear her scottish twang coming thru in the song perfect! I'd love to have heard a couple of slightly uptempo tracks as I think she'd love to do a big band number. " Who was I born to be" grows on me and I'm glad they let you hear her voice and not drown it out with the instrumentation. "Proud" I thought it was Eva Cassidy singing it or one of those US country singers. She's not the worlds best singers but she sings very well within her range but this might sound a bit far fetched but there's something quite spiritual about her voice that sort of makes your stomach get butterflies. I know this will sell by the truckload and I wish the lady the very best for the future. It's a tremendous debut album better than some of the tosh Cowell and co have rushed out. Like I said the album will make a grown man cry!!

As for those who gave it 1star it just shows how small-minded and poisonous you really are oh please keep those snakes ( the UK press) well away from her.

I was lucky enough to hear a preview!
Well, I was one of the lucky few who managed to hear "Wild Horses" when it was posted to Youtube for 6 hours yesterday. For me, this hauntingly beautiful rendition is worth the album price on its own. Miss Boyle has without doubt the ability to master a number of eclectic musical genres. She doesn't merely perform - she lives her performances. There is something intangible about a musician who sings from the soul and who has worked extremely hard over many, many years to perfect a technique. This lady is gifted in the true sense of the word, not some here-today gone-tomorrow bimbo. The entertainment industry has enough of those already. All I can say to those prepared to score her low is, for goodness sake at least wait until you've heard a few tracks of her debut album.

Better perhaps to remain silent and appear a fool than to open one's mouth and prove it...
