Editorial reviews

Amazon.co.uk Review
Charlotte Church is a smashing young girl, no doubt about it. On stage and TV she is exuberant, and has moved a whole generation of grandmothers to tears. There is something very endearing about a pure young voice, its owner still relatively unscathed by the sorrows of this world, wholeheartedly delivering a sonorous message of peace and goodwill. But to be quite honest, Church's voice isn't that remarkable, even for her age. And compared to the sky-high level some instrumentalists reach at a similar age, Charlotte's achievements are not outstanding. Musically she depends on meticulous coaching from Sian Edwards, and voice production seems to be the main focus when she sings. It is the combination of the freshness of her youth and the old familiarity of the songs that makes her so embraceable. This inventory of classic hits, invariably Christmas shopping material, is inoffensively orchestrated for further "angelic effect". There's noticeably more depth and phrasing in the numbers accompanied by harp only and some imaginative mixing has taken place to help the general balance. --IYngvil V.G./I

Highly recommended
Charlotte Church has been something of a phenomenon in the United Kingdom, a prodigy who leaped to national attention during a television talent show. This album was produced in 1999, when Charlotte was a mere slip of a 13-year-old girl. The songs are gentle, and show off Charlotte's abilities to good effect. I bought this CD as a gift for my wife, and she loves it. We both highly recommend it to you!

An truly captivating album
Charlottes voice has an amazing clarity that transports the listener captivating your interest. At once you are aware of a maturity and a childlike quality to her voice. Yes, there are times when the technique falters ever so slightly (this will improve with time and patient practise) but adds a real presence to her singing. I am stunned that some one so young can have a voice that is so capitivating. I can only say that if I had a daughter who sang as well as Charlotte I should be very proud indeed. Indeed my 7 year old daughter and I listen every morning on our way to school. Truly captivating. Keep it up Charlotte!

This little girl has an angelic talent
For one so young, Charlotte Church has a magnificent voice with immense power. With practice and maturity she will capture many more hearts with her undoubted talent. This CD has been giving me many pleasurable hours and will continue to do so for many more. Forget all the bad comments she gets here, give her a break, the girl has only just reached her teens! You just have to remember how young she is when you hear her sing, she may not have mastered every techniques, but given time I'm sure she will become a very successful opera singer if she chooses to continue.

Loved some of it , hated the rest.
I was impressed enough by six or seven songs on this album to purchase it. The ones I liked I really liked but I hated the others. Particularly annoying was Danny Boy. Overall I find this far superior to her new album,'Charlotte Church' but not as good as Lesley Garrett's - 'The Soprano's Greatest Hits' which has more consistency.
