...roads. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Seen Final Destination? This song was played throughout! Rocky Mountain High He was born in the summer of his 27th year, coming home to a place he'd never been before. He left yesterday behind him, you might say he was born again, you might say he found a key for every door. When he first came to the mountains, his life was far away on the road and hanging by a song. But the strings already broken and he doesn't really care, it keeps changing fast, and it don't last for long. And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high, I've seen it raining fire in the sky. The shadows from the starlight are softer than a lullaby. Rocky Mountain high, Colorado. Rocky Mountain high. He climbed cathedral mountains, he saw silver clouds below, he saw everything...

Advantages: Talented lyrical ideas, some really amazing songs
Disadvantages: If you pick the wrong songs, this album is truly forgettable

...that when played in your car really booms out of it. They are however catchy and worth listening to. As is "Honestly" which Cartel released, that and "Say Anything (Else)" were the only releases from Chroma. The rest of the album is forgettable, to be truly honest, all of the songs sound too similar and the lyrics aren't anything to write home about.

...Since her multi-platinum debut album in 2001, Alicia Keys has just gone from strength to strength, and this album shows just how she has! Selling 742,000 copies in the first week, it was the fastest selling album in the USA since Norah Jones' - Feels Like Home in 2004. Her third album to date and by far her most eagerly anticipated, this album shows of the singer/songwriters wide range of talents and vocal skills. I am a great fan of Alicia Keys and owning both of her previous albums, I can realize how hard it must have been to top what she has previously released! "As I Am" is an album full of soul and comes right from the heart of arguably one of the best R&B/Jazz singers out there today. The album combines soulful ballads with a range of funky R&B tracks and some exquisite piano pieces with really do grab the listeners attention... Read review
