Title: Remarkable Talent
Review: I'm stating the obvious to anyone who knows and has studied music for many years, but Clay's voice is a true gem, a rare find. I think the song selection is wonderful for his voice and I'm so glad that there are two new songs, not a repeat of what was already on the American Idol 2 CD. Technically Clay is perfect, but beyond that, the emotion and depth his voice exudes on this CD, in both songs, is phenomenal. It is very difficult to redo a hit song, but Clay makes Bridge Over Troubled Water his own, amazing! This is the Night is a song perfect for Clay's status as a popstar.I would really like to hear Clay do a cover of Flying Without Wings. It was a hit for the Irish boy band Westlife and Clay's voice is much more suited to the strong clear vocals necessary to do it justice than Ruben's is -- his cover of it sounds weak compared to Westlife's -- who took it to #1 in the UK.
Is the review positive or negative?
