Need more evidence of the record industry's obsession with youth? Consider that budding Welsh diva Charlotte Church was a ripe, old 16 when this, her first greatest-hits anthology was released. Spanning her first four releases, as well as some outside collaborations and unreleased material, this 18-track collection underscores the soprano's seemingly boundless potential--as well as some potential career obstacles ahead. Her crystalline, still-maturing voice is best showcased on classically oriented works like Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Pie Jesu," Franck's "Panis Angelicus," and her now-ubiquitous rendering of Delibes' "Flower Duet." She also excels on folk traditionals such as "She Moved Through the Fair" and "My Langan Love." But overwrought productions like the already-dated "Dream a Dream" and "Habanera," a faux-flamenco take on Bizet, nearly get the best of her. Still, her promising duet with fellow young phenom Josh Groban on "The Prayer" and her mature, dreamy reading of A Beautiful Mind's "All Love Can Be," as well as strong performances on the previously unreleased "It's the Heart That Matters Most" and "Bridge over Troubled Waters," are ample evidence of her potential for rewarding pop crossover--if she doesn't retire by 21. --Jerry McCulley

 Beautiful...the negativity astonishes me February 2, 2010
Sean Woody (Seattle, Wa)
Why are so many people hell bent on smearing this young woman?? Every track on this album is excellent. I could care less: 1. WHO wrote the songs 2. If her voice completely flawless every second. 3. If she publicly puts her foot in her mouth once in a while. Who hasn't?? My personal favorite is her rendition of Amazing Grace.

Incredible! September 8, 2009
Bobby J. Truong (Philadelphia, PA)
I couldn't believe reading all the negative reviews about this album that I had to say something. I was first introduced by a friend and I was hypotized by her beautiful voice.
About the songs in this album, they are simply incredible. Nice to put on when you're in the mood for some good music like house cleaning, etc. By the way, did I mention this album comes with a CD and DVD. I really like all the songs here.
 incrediable voice May 28, 2009
Roy Lent (NH USA)
I haven't seen her TV show(being I live in the US),but I miss her singing and performing a lot.

Charlotte has a wonderful voice for someone so young! Most Bel-Canto vocal instructers will tell you that your best singing years is the twenty year period between 40 and 60. Charlotte, although promising, has a long time to go before she gets to her peak! In the hands of the right vocal coach, she will be awesume.
I believe that as she grows and her voice matures, she will be an outstanding classical singer if the Hollywood types don't get her completely off in another direction.
