Title: please listen with your EARS!
Product review: I bought this CD impulsively after sampling a few tracks at a listening station at Barnes and Nobles. In the mood for a new CD or singer, I bought it. My first reaction was "WOW! How come I never heard of this guy?" After listening to the whole thing at home, I thought "Hmm not bad" Upon a few more listenings my opinion has fallen to "YAWN! Another overly hyped wanna-be" Truly great singers of standards offer so much more depth than this guy can deliver. You can listen to the truly greats over and over and over and they never grow tired, and most actually improve over the test of time. Trust me, this guy won't be one of them. He is merely mimicking the style, not offering it up with credibility. Diana Krall? THERE is the real thing. Listen to Sinatra right after little Michael and you will hear it- IF that is, you are listening with your EARS.
