...'. 3.30 miins of total chill out stuff.
Ali sings solo again for Bacharach's classic Don't Go and does it fair justice with a style reminiscent of the 70's.
I was never a big fan of 'Would I lie to you' but found this version featuring Bitty McLean ok listening and even found myself jigging along for just over 3 mins.
Track 5 - Ali alone again and brilliant. ' I want One of Those'. The drum beats and string arrangements are exceptional and fast flowing, while keeping that light hearting, happy atmosphere. (3.14 mins)
Smokey Robinson joins Ali in 'HALLELUJAH TIME.' The drum and bass keeps that wonderful beat and rhythm flowing like a summer breeze 'flowing over rocks & mountains'. Smokey's vocal's are unbelievable throughout this track. What a winner lasting 3.50 mins.
I love Katie Melua so was really looking forward to this next...
