Country Meets Folk/Here's To Our Love - Brian Hyland

Advantages: Showcases Brians vocals quite well, some catchy tracks,
Disadvantages: Wont appeal to all, BSB fans and others, some tracks slightly 'filler'

...hearts, minds and eyes, then God will come to us. Again, his vocal range is shown off pretty well here, its slightly more midtempo too and has a nice beat to it. Some sample lyrics include "We don't need wings to be angels We don't need reasons to be right Your love makes us all better Thats who we really are We don't need sleep to be dreamers We don't need to have tears in our eyes Your love makes us all better That is who we really are Angels and heroes at heart" 11 - Jesus Loves You - This is, as you can probably tell from the track name, the most 'heavy' track, in term of religious lyrical content, I feel. It features Brians son, Baylee (who was, at the time of recording the track, 3 years old), who enthusiastically says "I wanna hear Jesus Loves You daddy' and counts him in '1, 2, 3'.

Advantages: Brian's vocals
Disadvantages: Lyrical content

...). This has a great storytelling vibe, and talks about wanting to meet Jesus when he lived and see and hear the things he went through. 03. Welcome Home (You) - The title track, and another written by Brian. Definitely a stand out, this has a nice rock/acoustic edge to it.

Advantages: Great melodic songs mixing with a few higher tempo numbers
Disadvantages: repetitive towards end of album

...Interpol follow up there antics album with our love to admire and it is every bit as cool as its predercessor. The album kicks of with the haunting melodic sounds of "pioneer to the falls" with a looping drum beat. this swiftly followed by a song about the dark thoughts of man to try and get his woman into a threesome with oppropriately named "no i in threesome". The middle section of the album as somemore tempo with single releases of "Heinrich Maneuver" with some riping jerky riffs on guitar and "mammoth" with its looping beat and rythm. Interpols trademark huanting soungs and vocals remain consistant throught the album no more so in than in the penultimate track "the lighthouse". The whole sounds just bring alive the thoughts of loney lighthouse in the fog on a grey evening. There is the slight sense they run out of original... Read review
