Very Best Of Mrs. Mills, The - Mrs. Mills

Advantages: Flawless vocals, good production, professional music
Disadvantages: Lacking passion, edge and individuality

...my telephone to vote for Mills every week without fail. Unfortunately, having just sat and listened to his debut album "Picture of You" I rather wish I'd saved myself the bother and done something constructive with my Saturday evenings instead. Those of you who watched the X Factor may well recall just how powerful Ben's vocal performances were. He reached those tricky notes, belted them out with an awesome power and held onto them for dear life. But you won't find many such performances on this dreary album I'm sorry to report. Instead you'll find light and dainty little sing-along songs best suited to little girls and tone-deaf housewives if I'm honest. There's nothing on this album for the music lover; none of that raw passion I so adored him for when watching the show and not one single song had me tapping my foot or bopping my... Read review

Advantages: Contains most of his great hits and covers of other great songs.
Disadvantages: Missing Somewhere Beyond the Sea.

...Without a doubt, we all know that everyone enjoys listening to Frank Sinatra. He is one of the, if not the most famous and well recognised names in Jazz music. This CD is brilliant, it has all of his famous hits spread between the 2 CD's including My Way, I get a kick outa you, fly me to the moon, under my skin and mack the knife. It does miss the track somewhere beyond the sea but the rest of the songs make up for it by far. When some people pay over £10's for an album with 12 tracks on, only because 2 or 3 of their favourite songs are on there and you compare it to this album, there is no comparison. In total you are paying for 46 great tracks including covers of other great songs. eg, Yesterday by The Beatles and Mrs. Robinson by Simon and Garfunkel. I am a very big fan of Frank and I cannot encourage you enough to buy... Read review
