| Here is my review of Believe; Till There Was You Great opening track with Katherine introducing us to a new album and a new beginning! Angel A personal favourite of mine - I love the lyrics and Katheirne sings it with so much emotion that brings me to tears. I Believe Probably the leading track to his album; really amazing duet. Very special song that's one to treasure. Bring Me to Life I love the atmosphere of this song - Katherine really soars at the end. Great production. Fear of Falling This is another amazing track; I love, love, love it! Such a beautiful melody - it's probably about to become one of my very favourite Katherine songs! Godfather Theme Another leading track! This showcases for me Katherine's voice at her best. I keep picturing her singing on Andrew Marr next to that amazing piano. Ancora Non Sai I really liked listening to this as I felt it was an original sound with Katherine singing very much in the style we are all used to so well. No Woman No Cry Wow - what a choice. This is a great exmaple of how somebody can take any song and adapt it to their own sound;I love it! I think people need to remove the original from their minds and take it on its own merit. La Vie En Rose LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!! One of my favourite songs and I love the atmosphere at the beginning. I have heard this form of recording done before & have always thought it would be amazing if Katherine did it. Very special. La Califfa Beautiful - great recording. Who Wants to Live Forever Interesting choice and not usually what I would listen to but I love how Katherine has covered it. She has great emotion in her voice. I will always be a massive fan of Katherine's back catalogue and her first 6 albums hold a very special place in my heart. Nevertheless, I really love this album. It is unique in atmosphere and highlights Katherine's talent amazingly. I hope this hasn't bored you too much! It was a great project for a rainy weekend :-) xxxx

| Thank you to everyone who has posted their comments so far. Playing the CD in the car yesterday was Awesome! and much more powerful than the online previews, Cody Carey's duet with Katherine singing 'No Woman No Cry' is superb (not included in my original review). The whole album's running order is another factor which compliments the presentation (I recall saying the same with Living A Dream). I have come to the conclusion that the Believe CD is an absolute classsic Well Done Katherine

Dearest Katherine
I have now played your new album a number of times and and would definately put alongside Living A Dream as your best to date. You know I have always adored your music and I can honestly say there is not a single track I do not like.
I wish I had a crystal ball and could tell you how it will go down in the USA but if the good American people do not like this CD then it would amaze me. It is full of power, passion and emotion and I cannot imagine playing anything else for ages.
Am I a little biased? Yes you know I am but the CD is truly wonderful and I wish you every success with it both her and in the USA.
Take care
Lots of love Martin xx

| Hi Don't think I can go any better than the wonderful comments already posted, especially Abi's; for me the whole album is magnificent, I have loved every album but this one hit me on first hearing, usually I need to listen a couple of times. Well done Katherine, you amazing woman xxxx

Hi,
Well the first listen I liked the album but having heard it twice now I love it,especially the ones with more of a classical feel.I am having a little trouble with No Woman No Cry but did the same with Bring Me To Life and now I've really taken to that one,so perhaps the same thing will happen to the other track.
Favourites at the moment are I Believe,Ancora Non Sai,La Califfa,Se Si Perde Un Amore and Adagio but who knows after a few more listenings I will probably be adding some more!
Jenny.

| Hi Everyone I know what you mean Ang about the impact of listening to the album first time - I fell in love with it straight away. I have listened to nothing but Believe for the last few days with one cd in my player at home and the other in my car! Love Abi x
