Your Songs {Review}

I was recently given the opportunity through One2One Network to receive and review Harry Connick Jr's new CD, Your Songs. For those of you unfamiliar, the CD is a compilation of well-known songs by various artists, all covered by Harry Connick Jr, along with a full jazz band and backing string orchestra.

While playing the CD at dinner one night, my husband labeled this as, "Elevator music... but good." His description stuck with me, as in a lot of ways, it is like elevator music... played quietly in the background, it's not distracting. Yet, unlike most elevator music, it's extremely appealing to listen to and never gets old. I enjoyed this CD so much that I think I'll definitely be buying a copy for my parents for Christmas!

The tracklist (with original performers' names) is as follows:

All The Way (Frank Sinatra)

Just The Way You Are (Billy Joel)

Can’t Help Falling In Love With You (Elvis Presley)

And I Love Her (The Beatles)

(They Long To Be) Close To You (The Carpenters)

Besame Mucho

The Way You Look Tonight

First Time Ever I Saw Your Face (Roberta Flack)

Your Song (Elton John)

Some Enchanted Evening
And I Love You So (Don McLean)

Who Can I Turn To? (Tony Bennett)

Smile (Charlie Chaplin)

Mona Lisa (Nat King Cole)
