Clear - Michael Sadler

Advantages: wonderful voice, mix of contemporary and jazz clasics
Disadvantages: a few weak tracks

...is not a complete newcomer. His music has been featured on the soundtracks of Two Weeks Notice and one of my favourite films of last year Down With Love. He is not a bad looking guy, either- he reminds me of Matt Dillon. However he is not just a pretty face, his voice is pretty dreamy, too. The Voice This formula of covering jazz standards may sound familiar. Yes Robbie Williams did it, as did the Pop Idols. However Buble is a cut above these acts. The person I would most liken Michael Buble to is Harry Connick Junior as their repertoire is very similar, and give the jazz standards a modern contemporary twist with their Sinatra-style crooning. What I love about Buble’s voice is that it is smooth as satin, rich and emotive. It is also very clear. I like the fact that you can understand every single note he sings unlike a lot of pop and rock singers... Read review

Advantages: A lot of the good old songs he sang.
Disadvantages: his life at the moment.

...I am writing this review and opinion as a fair one, I have my personal opinions on him but this is not what this is about. No matter what has gone on in the past, Michael Jackson is a legend. He even has a monkey named after me lol. My next door neighbour from my last place idolises him and will not hear a bad thing said against him so for Christmas I decided to get her the Michael Jackson Number Ones. Now Ciao, tut, tut, if your trying to catch me out to see if I have got this cd, then I must point out to you that you have the wrong picture on the review heading. Ciao shows it as Michael jumping sideways. This is actually one of the pictures inside the cd and is not the main cover. The CD Cover -------------------- Very basic, white front and back cover with a picture of Michael Jackson with his had on his head... Read review

Advantages: Holds many classics
Disadvantages: None

...This man needs no introduction, whether you love or hate him there are not many people who have never heard of him. His career has sup parsed 10 years, where his music has stunned and excited many people of all sexes, ages and races. This man first appeared with his four brothers in the first “boy group” The Jackson Five. Michael the youngest of four brothers (at the time) held, and led the group to incredible success, not only musically, but the Jackson 5 also starred in their own Television cartoon show. When describing this success you would assume that Michael Jackson was in his twenties, not the tender age of just nine years old. As with most successful groups, the Jackson 5 began to lose popularity and the spilt with their original record label Motown did not help this problem. Not only did the loss of popularity...
