To judge by the impassioned responses to her debut album Voice of an Angel, Charlotte Church has already set extraordinary expectations for any follow-up. After all, the vocal phenomenon from Cardiff, Wales, took up a place in The Guinness Book of Records as the youngest artist ever--at the tender age of 12--to have an album attaining No. 1 status on the classical charts. This self-titled second release will continue to delight the highly gifted singer's legions of fans, and also contains some surprises for them. Church here tries out classical repertory with Puccini's "O mio babbino caro" and the "Jewel Song"--her pure and high-flying voice showing an amazing agility. There is great warmth in a couple of sacred songs, as well as the traditional Irish "She Moved Through the Fair." Church's vocal color--almost like a boy soprano at times--brings something unique to Gershwin's "Summertime," while the first track--Danny Beckerman's Hallmark-ish "Just Wave Hello"--seems destined to become part of the music you can't avoid associating with the turn of the millennium. --Sarah Chin

Back Off Johnathan Flanders!!! This girl has done wonders!!!!.......2007-04-24
Charlotte church is truely a remarkable success in the press,for her wonderful voice as a child of 12-14 years old, I give her credit and i would love to meet this girl one day, i think the world of her, it would be wonderful if she could sing those songs when she was a child, because she has got such a beautiful voice, which I think is just amazing,i think the reason why she doesnt like this new pope is becayse she had religion shoved down her throat and she prberly had a gutful of religion,but she still sys that she is quite religious,if she deicdes to go back and doing opera that would be really wonderful because people would rcongise her once again, I wish the press would back off and stop all this harsh critism because when you come to think of it she is a true star in the making, and nobody should she make you feel that you should shun her music, good luck Charlotte my true friend and long time lost romeo

You are always my true inspiration and it be wonderful to here you go back to opera,but whatever you do,I will always like you .......2007-03-02
I had heard that Charlotte church might consider to go back to her classical roots, but give her time, I mean I dont like it when the press say you must do this and that, the poor girl has been through alot, I will give her 100% in all that she does,she is an inspiration to me, and she had a voice that had potential and was very beautiful,it she does decide to go back to doing opera, it would be good to hear hard rock music in the background while she sings sweetly,and always it would be wonderful if she could do something a bit unusual, for example with the song that she sang at 13 which is "Just wave hello, and if she sings it now with an opera voice it would be wonderful,while rock music is in the song, but it would be good if the msic of the song could be reversed, i mean to have rock in the beining and then opera at the end, its just my suggestion, I wish her all the best in the future, and she tells me that she wants to be a opera singer in the near future which is a long long way away, good luck my dear, your no top 1 fan Jamie Cox
You Are my True Inspiration Charlotte Church No matter what happens.......2007-02-26
you are definetly my number one top fan,I love your voice, so full, sweet and bright, you are a wonderful person, I dont care what people think of you, proberly they dont like you, but I feel very bad and very sad when people talk bad about you, you are defintely my dream come true, I know that so much harsh critism has been made about you, because it all amounts to them being jelous of you,I would defintely would like to meet you one day, i will always admire you,you do indeed make a good rock singer, and your music has given me potential in my voice and singing, you are my inspiration and your music has released out alot of tension in my body,and it has made me a better person, i wish people would stop judging you, and leave you alone, if you sing opera one day,that would be wonderful too! (I wish the press would back off)but i still remember a little welsh girl of 13 who sang sweetly and had showed respect to God, I am a catholic, it would be wonderful to meet you one day Charlotte, my best friend, if you are reading this,my dear, good luck to you.
I am A catholic, I was a huge charlotte church fan, but since her recent disrepect for the church,is it best to boycott!!!.......2007-02-04
Where,has charlotte church gone,very downhill i would imagine, I was a huge charlotte church fan, i always thought the world of her, her voice was so sweet,full and bright, and the image that she represented was about a young lady in a cathedral who loved her God and never questioned anyone even the Priests, she has gone down the river of no return, for someone who had such wonderful talent, when you come to think of it, what a waste she recorded it on junk,and I hope she will make peace with pope bendict because I think he is just wonderful, there be must be something to clear up her name,I used to love her, but after reading one revierwer which said to boycott her music, i was very shoscked, because i always thought she was brought up properly, anyway I feel to boycott and let prayer back into my life for the comming years ahead.

Customer Reviews:
Petula pays respect to French musical heritage.......2002-10-06
At the time these tracks were recorded in 1964, the French market was still mostly about singles and four-song EP's. Albums were a rarity and double albums were virtually unheard of. So, it was a very brave move for Petula to record a double album of new material, and is a reflection of her enormous popularity in France at the time - this was before Downtown caused Petula to switch her attention to America.
Unlike Petula's other French albums, which drew on a variety of sources, including songs she wrote or co-wrote in French as well as translations of British and American songs, the Hello Paris double album was, as far as I can tell, exclusively French. This point is emphasised by the album title, the beautiful cover picture of Petula in Paris (it's intersting to note that the best Petula album covers are nearly all French), and several pictures inside showing Petula in various Paris settings.
The songs themselvers were written by some of France's finest songwriters. There's no evidence here of the rock'n'roll with which Petula established herself in France - these are mostly romantic ballads. Three were written or co-written by Charles Trenet, including La mer, which was translated into English as Beyond the sea, in which form it was a massive hit for Bobby Darin.
Le jour ou la pluie viendra (the only Gilbert Becaud song here) was translated as The day the rains came and gave Jane Morgan a British #1 (she never had another British hit) and a top forty American hit.
Two other songs which became famous after translation are Les feuilles mortes (Autumn leaves), which remains popular, and Cerisier rose et pommier blanc (Cherry pink and apple blossom white), which is rarely heard these days. There's also a lovely cover of Edith Piaf's La vie en rose.
Despite these covers, this collection contains less material that will be familiar to British and American ears than any of the other French releases. However, true Petula fans will still enjoy this.

Le jour ou la pluie viendra (the only Gilbert Becaud song here) was translated as The day the rains came and gave Jane Morgan a British #1 (she never had another British hit) and a top forty American hit.
Two other songs which became famous after translation are Les feuilles mortes (Autumn leaves), which remains popular, and Cerisier rose et pommier blanc (Cherry pink and apple blossom white), which is rarely heard these days. There's also a lovely cover of Edith Piaf's La vie en rose.
Despite these covers, this collection contains less material that will be familiar to British and American ears than any of the other French releases. However, true Petula fans will still enjoy this.

Customer Reviews:
A bargain collection of showtunes.......2005-08-19
This bargain collection of showtunes is highlighted by the composition of Kurt Weill and the uniquely rolling tongue of Colette Lyons. I have a complaint about this compilation. It includes "Ol' Man River", but it excludes Al Jolson's rendition of "Ol' Man River." Otherwise, this collection gives you ample bang for your buck.
