I really liked this

By LauraCC,
I listened to the CD twice, once in the living room of my house, once in my room with headphones. Here's what I thought:
Taste And See- My favorite song on this CD. I really liked the beat of this one and the flute(?, or whatever that was) added a nice touch. It starts off slow and picks up by the chorus. The word choices ("reservoirs" for example) were interesting.
Take Us Away- A song of longing for the rapture, it's comforting in that while we hurt now, there is yet hope for the future. The song is medium tempo and the verses are not disjointed; they segue well into each other.
Arms Open Wide- Desribes the day the narrator came to Jesus, and all the good things God is. Speaks of the trust we should have in God. It's a very upbeat song and the guitar-playing is great. Ends off quietly.
Redefined- Another trust in God song; also proclaims the singer has been made new. The chorus is unusually high-pitched. Could have done without background Jason-computer voice.
Lamb of Glory- Repeating the same verse for first and second really drives the point home about Jesus' sarcifice. The simple piano and strings background really works for this song; it makes it more of a slow, quiet, worshipful moment. However, it ends too abruptly.
A Million Angels- Thanks God for caring, asks the question that so many have wondered; "Why does God love me?". Expresses his dedication to God. Not sure if I liked it or not, but why does his voice go from one pitch to another in each part of each verse?
Final Verdict- A great first CD, I'd love to see more out of him.
(My mom listened with me the first time and she likes it too. Except she thinks that the instruments drown him out sometimes.) View All Music And Book Reviews By LauraCC | View LauraCC's Profile
