But she's a bit nuts. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Having said, she's got a great voice!

OK. I'm going to get flamed for this but....
This CD is sure to sell bucketloads. Every loved non Witness granny in the UK is going to find one of these under the tree this Christmas. As an exercise in creating product focus grouped to within an inch of it's life it's surely a triumph.
Personally I can't help feeling a little nauseous. Far too many songs which reflect her 'underdog frump overcomes adversity to triumph in reality TV hell' status for my liking. These include the obvious 'I Dreamed A Dream' as well as 'You'll See', 'Daydream Believer', 'Up To The Mountain', 'Who I Was Born To Be' and 'Proud'......Yes, yes we get the message Susan.
We also get the thoroughly miserable 'End Of The World'......the JW's should love that one.
As a closer we have the Christmassy 'Silent Night'.......less of a JW favourite.
Yes, she's got a good voice. The orchestration seems a little flaccd and sacharine coated for me. There's a couple of gospel favourites in there and the interesting choice of the Rolling Stones 'Wild Horses' given a very delicate treatment.
If you prefer not to be challenged, can't be bothered to put the work into finding good artists you like or don't like music much and get teary when your favourite soap star dies, you'll love this.

Your post was OK with me, LeeT. I guess we are all music snobs in one way or another. Something tells me I probably wouldn't care for your preferred music.

To each his own, I'm used to some folks not liking what I like.
