    Interested in visiting your favorite contestants from the second season of American Idol? Then this is the album for you, but be forewarned that something is lost in the translation from the small screen to the compact disc. Simon Cowell's scathing comments and Paula Abdul's head tossing add to the human drama; without those visual embellishments, the recorded version falls flat. Sure this is a talented bunch, but the material is mundane, with few of the finalists straying from the traditional arrangements. But when they do, it's sometimes worse. Ruben Stoddard's rendition of the Carpenters hit "Superstar" reeks of misplaced sincerity. The best cut on the disc is Kimberly Caldwell's throaty cover of Roberta Flack's "Killing Me Softly With His Song," which gives the song some well-needed grit. And while Julia Demato's voice is no match for Etta James's full-bodied version of "At Last," Demato gives the classic a fetching kittenish spin. --Jaan Uhelszki

    3 out of 5 stars THE BEST TALENT!!! some bad song selects............2007-06-29

    Season 2 of american idol (in my opinion) had the best talent. the biggest voices and broke all stereotypes. although some people had there choice to win the finale (i really wanted kimberley locke to win), i thought they ended by pickin the right person. the previous season had there 'best' performances but this season did the opposite and decided to do love songs... honestly they should have did a greatest hits LP because i could name quite a few BRILLIANT performances by at least 5 of the contestants.

    hands down the best track on the album is 'superstar' by ruben studdard. he channeled luther vandross sooooo amazingly that luther would be proud. 'killing me softley' my kim caldwell was awesome as well. she defiinatly brought the blue eyed soul on this track.

    clay aiken, trenyce, charles grigsby, and carmen did great jobs on there songs as well....

    now the bad.... i love kimberley locke and she did an brilliant job on 'somewhere over the rainbow', BUT the cd is called LOVE SONGS and that is not a love song at all. rickey is a great voice but his version of 'back to one' sounded EXACTLY like brian mcknight. josh gracin (was not my favourite) did a HORRIBLE job on this song... they should have gave him a country song to sing.

    the class of season 2 will still be my favourite voices but i just wish they picked better songs for this cd.

    1 out of 5 stars All Time Classic Love Songs...Ruined.......2006-07-18

    Seriously, this CD is BAD. The only song that I can say is any good is Ruben Studdard's rendition of Superstar. And if you like that song, go buy Ruben's album, because this is not worth your money. The only reason I can see anyone buying this album, is if you are just into collecting AI merch. Other than than, SKIP THIS ONE.

    1 out of 5 stars this cd stinks!.......2005-09-25

    This cd is obnoxious. The artists all seem to compete by seeing how many notes they can add into one syllable. I have never heard so many slides on the notes.

    4 out of 5 stars Sounds good.......2005-09-09

    They picked good songs to sing and the vocals were good.

    5 out of 5 stars I love what American Idol has done for singing!.......2005-08-10

    As a professional singer and Voice Teacher, I am so thrilled to see how American Idol has given the art of singing such a jump start in these last few years.

    These American Idol CDs and programs are filled with so much varying talents. From Hard rock to Country, America is becoming interested in identifying true talent. As an Opera Singer myself I can still enjoy the gifts of other genres and am sad to hear when others look down upon the show. Also, as a voice teacher of many styles I can't stress enough the need to my own students for them to develop themselves as a "Complete Unique Package". Finding their own true niche and style including: voice type, genre, best repertoire, to the the right audition outfit. American Idol teaches the same theories. Be true to yourself and your voice to get your best shot at this business of singing. I am an advocat for AI and all shows that encourage the high developement of arts in America. We come from a society that watched sports religiously on telievision (which is great) but there are so many talents to support including singing out there amongst us. American Idol gives artists and viewers a fantastic opportunity.

    Album Description

    This is the FIRST ALL NEW RECORDING OF JOHN RUTTER'S MUSIC IN TEN YEARS! "Mass of the Children was written in late 2002 and early 2003. The occasion of its first performance in February 2003 was a concert in New York's Carnegie Hall involving children's choir, adult choir, soprano and baritone soloists, and orchestra. I had always wanted to write a work combining children's choir with adult performers, not only because I find the sound of children's voices irresistible but also because I wanted to repay a debt. As a boy soprano in my school choir I had been thrilled whenever our choir took part in adult works with children's choir parts, such as the Mahler Third Symphony and the Britten War Requiem, and years later I remembered this experience and wanted to write something that would give children a similar opportunity to perform alongside adult professionals". From the notes - John Rutter

    My daughter is performing this work with her high school chorale. She is the main listener, and is totally enamored with this particular recording.

    5 out of 5 stars A Brilliant Masterpiece.......2005-12-24

    After being able to perform this piece myself, I know that is is just amazing! I reccomend it to anyobdy who likes spiritual, uplifting music.
    Nice work, Mr. Rutter!

    3 out of 5 stars Britten-lite :(.......2005-03-30

    I contemplated on this 3-star rating for a bit, especially after reading all the 4- to 5-star ratings preceding this. John Rutter is a terrific and charismatic choral conductor and writer. His editing on Fauré's Requiem really galvanized the popularity of that work, not to mention his own very heart-felt Requiem setting as well. Speaking of Requiem settings, my bone to pick about the "Mass of the Children" work is such that it emulates (albeit in a heart-felt and sincere fashion) other large-scale works that involve orchestral, treble and mixed choruses, very specifically Benjamin Britten's unforgettable War Requiem. I couldn't help but feel a bit slighted by the last few pages of "Mass of the Children" and its much diluted rendition of the War Requiem's counterpart conclusion. I think those famliar w/ the Britten will know what I mean. It's hard not to draw a comparison because the similarities are striking yet determinedly contrived.

    In any case, I do understand that the participants and "target audience" are perhaps less lofty than that of the Britten. According to the score inscription, this was "written at the inviation of Peter Tiboris and MidAmerica Productions."

    There are other anthems on this CD that offer a nice addition. I think the Clare Benediction is a stand-out as a great latter-Rutter anthem, with a characteristically satisfying, fluent and "inevitable" cadences towards the end.

    5 out of 5 stars Outstanding!.......2004-12-27

    As an avid choral enthusiast, and having performed The Mass of the Children, I can say that this is one of Rutter's finest works. Without a doubt, Rutter truly allows his soul to shine through in this masterpiece. The children's choir is fabulous, and the music gives me chill bumps whenever I hear it. I highly recommend this album!

    5 out of 5 stars Beautiful!.......2004-09-11

    I sing with my school choir, and was blessed to be able to perform the Mass of the Children with the school. It is a beautiful mass-- the lightness of the childrens voices with the power of the adult choirs make a moving and powerful mass. The orchestra is stunning, just enough to add beauty to the piece. Rutter's Mass of the Children is a must-have for any person who enjoys this type of music.

    Around 12:15 Am is a must have song for me, and the reason I purchased this CD. Aside from that, and the title track, there aren't many songs that would inspire be buy this CD.

    His later albums such as "This Time Around," "Tales From the Bright Side" and "Free," have a higher number of good tracks per CD.

    1 out of 5 stars Institutional.......2003-04-05

    Thank God I became a huge Alex Bugnon fan AFTER this album. Had I heard this one before the rest, i'd never listened to him again.

    5 out of 5 stars an excellent contemporary jazz album..........2002-03-09

    Alex Bugnon's "Love Season" still sets a standard for modern jazz improvization and good prodcution even though it was made in the late 1980s. Along with the obvious jazz influence, there is a strong R&B dynamic, including covers of Brenda Russell ("Piano in The Dark") and Gap Band ("Yaerning for Your Love") songs. For the most part, the songs are beautifully crafted and don't drag on past their usefulness like many of the pop-jazz albums that followed this release.

    Granted, everything on this album did not age well ("Magie Noir" and "Going Out" bookend this CD, and are as insipid as anything you would hear in a department store elevator) but it still is highly worthwhile. The title track and the R&B covers alone are impressive.

    3 out of 5 stars Three stars, but some great stuff, and one masterpiece.......2002-02-03

    I got this after hearing "Around 12:15." One of my all time favorites. The title song and Yearning for Love, an old Gap Band song if I'm not mistaken, are great too. The rest hasn't yet grabbed me the way those songs do. But I'd buy it just for them.
    Note: I hate grade inflation. Others would probably give it four stars.

    5 out of 5 stars This CD deserves 1,000 stars........1999-01-16

    The title track is just outstanding. Alex really demostrates his talent on the Love Season track. Even my eight year old son fell in love with Love Season and all the other tracks on this CD. He now prefers to listen to only Alex Bugnon's music than his usual R&B Artists. Now that should be enough reason for anyone to purchase the Love Season CD without listening to it first.

    5 out of 5 stars Witty and Charming.......2000-08-15

    This CD is fun and action packed as much as you could hope for in a CD. He uses quotes from many famous folk and classical songs and implements them into his own compositions with a bit of a twist. For example, in Classical rap, where he raps about being the best rapper in the world with terrific brass interludes between the verses. The orchestra plays a clip from Vivaldi's "Spring" and then he twists it into a record "wicky-wicky" to the same tune. He introduces every peice before it is played in a hilarious manner in which he talks about the peice and something else that was going on in the composers mind as he wrote the peice. Starting at the begining-

    This is Professor Pete- Peter Schickele introduces himself as well as P.D.Q.

    1712 Overture- A takeoff of the 1812 overture of course, with snatches of some famous folktunes thrown in here and there.

    Oedipus Tex- A parady of the Greek Myth Oedipus Rex where he murders his father who is the King. Oedipus Tex lives a life like his brother but in Texas style.

    The next tracks are more comedy than exactly music like the WTWP station giving options over the phone about how you would like to hear a certain peice of music. Cooking French... is a woman cooking a French gourmet meal but flubbing up the entire time.

    What I have already said pretty much sums it up. The rest of the tracks are equally hilarious and as witty as all the others. If you buy this CD you will not regret it no matter what type of music you listen to.

    If you like TV/movie soundtracks, and Andromeda, you should like this. Good Andromeda music, also contains the two different opening themes. (Remember, it is a TV soundtrack so it contains synthesized music.) I enjoy listening to it, and can have it playing in the background at work too without it being bothersome.

    5 out of 5 stars A Great Soundtrack.......2005-02-01

    The soundtrack to Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda is one of the best sci-fi soundtracks to come out in quite a while. I found the music exciting, interesting and intriguing, and on several tracks simply exhilarating; composer Matthew McCauley really does take you on a musical roller-coaster, from the stately High Guard Theme to Dylan's theme to Trance's and Beka's themes to the Nietzschean Attack theme. McCauley musically explores each character, underscoring and enhancing their unique personality. The album has kind of a New Age-ish sound to it on several tracks which gives it a mysterious ethereal quality. A great score for a great series. Composer Matthew McCauley certainly knows his stuff. This is just great music whether or not you're a fan of the show!

    5 out of 5 stars love it.......2003-08-08

    Great presentation of soundtrack. Interesting instrumentals for even those who are not familiar with the show. I listen to it practically all the time!

    5 out of 5 stars A great television score!.......2002-03-27

    First off, this is a television soundtrack, not a movie soundtrack-- many of the "instruments" are synthesized. Okay, that aside, this is a great album! It's been a long time since I've heard so many different character themes on a tv soundtrack. From the Heroic "Dylan Hunt", to the brooding "Rev Bem and Magog" music, to the outright ominious "Neitzscheans" themes, this album is a winner. It's nice that the producers also included Alex Lifeson's "March of the High Guard" theme from season 1, which is regrettably no longer used on the show. The music on this album takes you on a emotional roller coaster-- from mysterious, to brooding, to heroic and back again. High recommended for fans of both scores and the television series alike!

    4 out of 5 stars Another great trip down the MFU memory lane.......2005-10-19

    Volume 2 (comprised of 2 CDs) is another first rate compilation of the series' original music and not to be missed by U.N.C.L.E. fans. The liner notes are wonderful and add a lot to ones appreciation of the music.

    My only problem is that THE CDs ARE COPY PROTECTED! Considerable work is needed to get the music onto your iPod, if you really want the music in your mp3 collection. This is a major hassle and a surprise, since the first set in the series was not copy protected.

    5 out of 5 stars The best of the three Double CDs ORIGINAL soundtrack release.......2005-07-12

    Many of us have always thought The Man From UNCLE had the best music for a TV series ever, and this three double CD release confirms this. Wow! I'd be just happy with one CD, but having SIX (three double CDs packages) is absolutely out of this world, I mean, a lifetime wait come true.

    Indeed, this is an unbelievable collection of three double CDs packages with the complete series soundtrack, and I mean the complete music, not a tune is missing.

    And this is the ORIGINAL Man From Uncle music. Let me stress the point: this is the four years ORIGINAL soundtrack with the original recordings as they were heard throughout the series, not a no-name orchestra doing personal versions of the stuff. The audio transfer is very, very good, the music from late episodes is even in stereo.

    Each individual CD carries over 70 minutes of music. All in all there you have the four TV seasons main titles and all, absolutely all of TMFU unforgetable music.

    This is not a chronological release, meaning, all CDs have a mix of music from all four TV seasons. Volume 1 is heavier on early TV seasons stuff, fans of Jerry Goldsmith will love it. Those of us who prefer what Gerald Fried and later Richard Shores did with TMFU music, then volume 2 is mandatory. If you are a fan, you can't miss any of these six CDs. However if buying all three double packages is too much for you, you must go with Volume 2, no questions asked. Volume three is the weakest of them as it brings "suites" and a whole CD with "The Girl From Uncle" soundtrack, but you have a bonus "Open Channel D" beeper.

    Each package is gorgeous, each with a glossy color booklet with extensive liner notes with details on how each tune was written to a specific TV series episode and how it was used onwards. You have bios on the composers, on how the recordings were made, even an overview on how many instruments were available in each of the years the music was recorded.

    5 out of 5 stars I keep replaying the single album over and over again.......2006-12-31

    I watched AI 4 just recently. I loved it so much so that I ordered both the Stoppover cd and the American Red Cross Disaster Relief single. I keep playing the single over and over again. The harmony of the finalists different voices is very soothing and makes me feel nostalgic that Season 4 is over. I wish we can have another album of this kind in the next AI seasons to come.

    3 out of 5 stars When you tell me that you love me.......2006-03-25

    The only song I liked on the CD is the title song, the CD is just "alright" for me. I enjoyed watching them sing it on TV more and I liked the TV song version better also.

    4 out of 5 stars Enjoyable..........2005-12-10

    This is an enjoyable 3 song single to listen to in the car. "He Ain't Heavy, He's my Brother" is probably the best track. The standout voices are Constantine, Carrie, Bo and Vonzell. If you are a fan of any of those 4, purchase this single!

    4 out of 5 stars It's nice!.......2005-11-20

    All 3 songs are nice, especially When You Tell Me That You Love Me and Everything is Beautiful. Everything is Beautiful is my favourite and the top 12 of season 4 did a fantastic job in all 3 songs. They got voices, and they are talented. They are awesome!

    5 out of 5 stars AI season 4 single.......2005-10-07

    The album was worth every penny. The quality is excellant and the choice of songs are perfect. I also feel good about helping the AI's to help others. I also so enjoyed AI4 so much I felt like I should return the favor.

    4 out of 5 stars Strange interpretation of "classical".......2005-01-17

    I bought this CD because it contained some songs I was having a hard time finding elsewhere, such as Passo pel prat, Chants d'Auvergne sung by Fredrica Von Stade. However, some of the songs on this CD do not seem to belong e.g. all three songs by John Williams, Mack the Knife, Barbra Streisand, and the Psycho Murder Theme for starters, and many more.

    I gave the CD 4 stars only because I was happy that I was able to find a few somewhat rare tracks.

    3 out of 5 stars An interesting mix..........2002-05-18

    This is a sampler in the truest meaning of the word. I bought this 4 CD work primarly for two tracks, but also because I was interested to see what else was out there without investing a fortune in CD's I wouldn't like! I was surprised by the wide diversity of music ranging from true classical and jazz to contemporary compositions and interpretations.

    While I find some tracks divine (Williams's _Schindler's List_), I find other tracks unsettling (_Beau Soir_ performed by Barbra Streisand). But when you are trying to span 100 years of music, you will (and should) encounter all tastes and styles. Overall, I really enjoy listening to this set. My only regret is that I don't have a CD changer...

    5 out of 5 stars A touch of history...........2002-01-28

    An exceptional set. The history of music making of the 20th century in 4 CDs. Even from the first track with Giuseppe Campanari and Charles Adams Prince you can see that people put much time in collecting the best interpretations and putting together an amazing collection. Other highlights include the "Mack The Knife" with Lotte Lenya, the Bachiana Brasileiras, The Fanfare For The Common Man with LSO conducted by the composer and so many more. An undespiuted *****

    4 out of 5 stars Good, not great.......2007-01-07

    There are some gems on this CD. Most of the music is nondescript when you listen to it; it is much more suited to being the background music of a TV show, of course. In other words, it's not like regular music you get on a regular commercial band's CD. In my opinion, the best songs are the Main Titles, in particular the 5th season.

    5 out of 5 stars Indeed it is........2007-01-05

    With his compositions Franke shows how much he understands the B5 universe
    of JMS. A true epic.

    5 out of 5 stars Wonderful!.......2001-11-05

    This is a wonderful sound track. Chirstopher Franke catches the mood of the series with his music and it sounds even better when you listen to a recording, away from the episodes. Buy this.

    5 out of 5 stars This really is the Best of Babylon 5!.......2001-11-04

    Thank you to Christopher Franke and Sonic Images for The Best of Babylon 5! Although I have most of these tracks on other B5 CD's, I really enjoyed this one because of the consistently great music. I would rank this one as excellent, along with my other two favorites, Babylon 5 Volume 2, "Messages from Earth" and the episodic CD, "Sleeping in Light." Two tracks deserve special mention: Track 2 is (I believe) a reworking of music from the album Babylon 5 Volume 1. With the "Battle of the Line" music in the background, Chris Franke adds new ideas to enhance the musical experience. The other notable track is the last one, Track 18 "Bonus Theme." This is a fabulous new track, which I understand was written for the (unfortunately never released) Babylon 5 CD-Rom game. This is six minutes of great music, that cannot be mistaken for anything other than "Babylon 5-style" music. It's a thrilling piece, which alone makes me glad I bought the CD. Let's hope we get the same quality offering with the "Legend of the Rangers" movie soundtrack, which I hope will be released next year.
