A rare talent with great promise...
Rating: 5/5
James Morrison's trademark rasp was caused by a case of the whooping cough as a child, and it is just one of the many unique things about Morrison. I first heard Morrison by chance last year when I stumbled across James Morrison in Borders and previewed the album, and then looked him up on YouTube. I became hooked on "Wonderful World" and slowly listened to his other singles. I was slow to buying the entire album because I normally only purchase Christian records, but James Morrison, for me, had a passion so rare in young artist today.

So, does the album live up to my expectations? No, but simply because my expecations were so great based on a year of build-up based on some strong singing and well-written pop songs. Even if it does not live up to my expectations, it is an amazing debut for a someone who was just 22 when it was recorded. His voice exudes passion and a fiercely strong will on "Call the Police" which is probably the best track and the best indication of what James Morrison could become. The rest of the album is kind of a blues-tinged pop record. He sings with soul on tracks like "The Letter", "You Give me Something" and "Undiscovered", but the closest any of his tracks come to the passion of "Call the Police" is "Wonderful World". "Wonderful World" is the closest he comes to perfectly melding his rough and passionate vocals with a polished pop sound, but even that gem leaves something to be desired once you realize what James is capable of vocally.

I would highly reccomend this record, and I extremely excited to see where Morrison goes from here. His biggest weakness on the record is inexperience and on his next record he could either choose to make soulless pop records (which he does write good pop tunes) or really dig up his passion with a bit of experience in life and write some amazing and truly raw and passionate music. I look forward to seeing his metamorphisis, and one can only hope he can really lets go and sings with everything he's got on all the tracks next time around.

One of the best CD's I own
Rating: 5/5
Every song is great. You'll keep playing a few certain ones over and over because they are real catchy. Just a top quality album overall.

Amazing cd

....that is how good I think this cd is. Lyrics are very important to me and this cd is what I call...Lyricly Sound!!. Note, we are not talking about four or five tracks on this cd, but all 13 tracks are well written and he co.wrote all. For me, as good as these track are, they are the type of songs that will take several listens for them to grow on you.
If you are a John Mayer or James Blunt fan, you should like this cd.

Good voice, but...
Rating: 3/5
I bought the cd based on a couple of songs, not sure what the rest of the album would be like. He has a great voice, but I thought many of the songs were too similar, and not many stood out as something special. Hope he continues to record, but develop a more unique sound.
