Average Rating: Rating: - Brightman's voice will move you I am sick to death of the opera purists deriding Sarah Brightman and belittling her accomplishments for absolutely no justifiable reason. What's this about a small voice? The orchestra drowning her out can be attributed to poor mixing. Go see her in concert and your opinions will change. That aside, this album stays in my CD player, I can never quite bring myself to take it out. It's got a place in my heart, and it's easy to see why. She pays tribute to Queen with her stunning rendition of "Who Wants to Live Forever." Doyle's "In Pace" is one of the most fantastic songs I've ever heard. I enjoyed "Naturaleza Muerta," "La Wally," and her rendition of the Gipsy Kings "Tu quieres volver" absolutely took my breath away. Of course all of these songs pale in comparison to the title track, the absolutely classic duet with Andrea Bocelli. The orchestra supports their voices beautifully, each singing their own part, and at the coda, where the two voices join as one, I feel as though I've touched the stars. Very few songs have ever elicited that kind of response (always bringing on chills and tears) from me, and even fewer continue to do it after all this time. So please folks, don't let the purists turn you away from this album. Listen to it and judge it on it's own merits. Rating: - Classical Cross Over Album From the moment I heard the song Time To Say Goodbye I became a huge fan of Sarah Brightman. A beautiful duet sung with Andrea Bocelli he originally recorded it on an earlier album.As someone who hates opera I approached this album with caution ,only to find it was a terrific classical cross over album.Sarah remakes some opera classics like O Mio Babbino Caro,Alleluja and In Trutina without straining her voice like most opera singers.With the London Symphony Orchestra in the background most of the songs are pop and easy listening with an opera slant.Who Wants To Live Forever,(yes,the Queen song)and Tu Quieres Volver (Gypsy Kings)turn out very nice.Just Show Me How To Love You and There For Me sung with Jose Cura are two of the best songs on the album thanks to Cura's terrific voice.In my opinion he's a much better singer then Bocelli. No One Like You and En Aranjuez Con Tu Amor are also noteworthy thanks to the music and Sarah's singing.Although most of the songs are not in English that did not affect my enjoyment of this great album. Rating: - A Surprise Pleasure for Not Particularly a Brightman Fan I'd rather listen to Sarah Brightman than watch her. Her voice is lovely, but very small. Her technique, I think, is miniscule. She does not belong in operatic repertoire. All that criticism out of the way, I'll say this is a most delightful album! (Surprise!). I'm weary of hearing Bocelli, who I find sometimes pleasant at best, but essentially boring, so forget the first number. "There's No One Like You" is gorgeous. The two duets with young Jose Cura are sensational, although that's because of Cura, who has a stunning voice and with his singing and acting skills and appearance/personality ought to be a much bigger star than Bocelli. Any of you who haven't: listen to him, watch him when you can. This is THE big tenor star on the rise. The "Aranjuez" number by Brightman is ever so appealing, as is "In Trutino". Yes, her voice is too small for the "La Wally" aria, but it's pretty nonetheless, as, of course, is "O mio babbino caro." All in all, this CD is somehow just an enjoyable listen. I even like her read on the Gypsy Kings number.
