I have heard his lead single, Crush, and really like it. This album is an adult-contemporary album with ballads that will appeal to his young, female fans. Because many of the songs are piano-based and mid- to low-tempo, it allows him to unleash his powerful voice and play to his strengths.
Highlights of the new record are “Touch My Hand” and “Desperate,” which aim for grandeur, with big choruses and sweeping (but not overwhelming) arrangements.
Also included on the album is the rendition of Robbie Williams’ “Angels,” which he sang on Idol.
I know that this probably isn’t going to be one of Bruce’s favorites to listen to, but I will probably venture out and purchase the album. Bruce will have to just suffer through listening to me sing along with David in the car!
