Title: GREAT talent, not a great CD unfortunately
Review: I really love Ruben but personally these songs just don't do it for me. I hate to say it but I think his version of Superstar is boring, slow, and tired. There's just no magic in it, there's a lack of that certain something special to make it stand out. I thought so when I first heard this song on the AI2 CD and I still think it. Ruben has a great voice, this song just doesn't showcase it the way it should be.As for Flying Without Wings it's an okay song. I think it's definitely better than Superstar but it's also not the best song choice for Ruben. There were so many songs Ruben sang on the show that he just knocked out of the park and sadly these two songs just don't compare. I really hope that next time they give him something meatier that he can sink his chops into!
