Album Reviews

The one that got away

By justink | Posted August 7, 2009

CCM industry truly jipped her from becoming a CCM star- the female Chris tomlin- this album was a stellar almost perfect pop CCM album. Amazing stuff here- She rocked. She sang ballads. She sang love songs- class act

Great Return.

After 3 years of absence, Joy's return to music is great.

1. Stay 5/5 Great song! The piano vamp is just stunning!
2. We 5/5 The message and the beat of this song go together perfectly. Bravo!
3. Say Goodbye 5/5 A superb ballad that includes Joy's vocals soaring over a beautiful piano medlody. Deliciously produced!
4. Hide 5/5 Great!!! This is definitely the best choice for her radio single!
5. Beautiful Redemption 5/5 Another amazing ballad!
6. Unafraid 5/5 A lot like "Hide". Just wonderful.
7. Silence 3/5 The only "so-so" song on the album.
8. I'm In Love With You 4/5 A very nice song that portrays the love Joy has for her husband.
9. God Only Knows 5/5 A fun and encouraging way to wind down the album!
10. Child of Eden 5/5 Stunning closer! Amazingly written!

Overall: 4 1/2 out of 5

A Great Pop Album

By art10 | Posted July 30, 2007

Don't tell anybody this, but I like this album. This is one of the best Pop albums I've ever heard. Joy Williams has a great voice, and brings such emotion to her songs. Better song writing really helps this release compared to her earlier work.

Only major problem is the length, I would have liked more songs, more bang for the buck. Some songs are better than others considerably, but they are still good.

Overall, a great Pop album, not totally formulatic, and don't even get me started on the album insert. Whoa! But it, love it, listen to it, look at it.
