Francesca Battistelli is no stranger to the stage. Having been raised by parents immersed in the arts and Broadway, she developed a love of music, theater, and performance at a young age. But instead of using these talents for applause and accolades, Francesca prefers to point people much beyond herself - towards hope. Her soulful piano-pop sound resembles a blend of her music interests- jazz, rock, gospel and R&B woven beautifully together with themes of trust and risk taking. Includes the smash single "I'm Letting Go" and the #1 hit "Free to Be Me".

Paper Heart is my personal favorite by Fransesca Battistelli.
1.Free To Be Me, the first track, is a fun spunky song.
2.I'm Letting Go is an ok song, it's kind of carefree sounding.
3.Unpredictable is a good song too, it's one of my favorite ones on the album.
4. I didn't really like this song, not one I listen to alot.
5.Beautiful, Beautiful is a good song, it's a bit slower then the others but I like it.
6.Blue Sky is one of my favorite songs on this album, the organ thing kind of bugs me though.
7.Didn't like this one at all.
8.Someday Soon ok, it's slow, and I'm not fond of the lyrics.
9.Behind THe Scenes, I like this ones, it's slower but pretty.
10.It's Your Life is a great song, I really like it.
11.Time In Between is ok,not my fave but I still listen to it.

Ok so I will admit that the only reason I bought this CD was it as $5 at a Christian music store and I thought she was decent. The more I listened to it, the more I enjoyed it. I was even surprised the my Dad enjoyed it and he and I have very different tastes of music.

Is a very great buy!!!
Francesca has an amazing voice. There is not a track on the album I did not like; all the tracks have a different feeling, and bring us something to think.

I love this CD. I heard the Free To Be Me song on Gospel Music Channel. I instantly loved her music. I love every song on the record. No matter what mood I am in I can also listen to her music and it will cheer me up. I love how there are ballads and pop songs on this CD. So excited for her new one.

Francesca Battistelli did a superb job on her debut album. It is great music to listen to and though some of the songs tend to be geared more towards female listeners the album is great for men and women alike.
