Great Music, Great Vocals

Yanni who? I had only a brief knowledge of Yanni before getting a sneak peak back in February of the new PBS Special Yanni Voices. Since I wasn't a huge fan before, I don't have anything to compare it to. However, I find this CD relaxing and the vocalists very talented.
This is the first time ever Yanni music is being heard with vocals on this recently released CD Yanni Voices. This is not my normal type of music but it is very soothing and enjoyable to listen to.
The calming affect was put to the test one evening when I was having a very bad night with my two youngest children. I had picked them up from daycare and they were both crying and thrashing about. I thought I was going to lose it - whining kids. I had Yanni Voices in my CD player and decided to play it full blast. Within 30 seconds quiet. Both children had their fingers in their mouth and there was no more whining. I don't know if it was a coincide but it appeared to work for them. For this alone, the CD will stay in my player in my van.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Catchy, fun, and entertaining!

While I'm a huge fan of pop music, I don't watch Dancing With the Stars. So starting this review with a clean slate as I have never heard of any of the people in the Ballas Hough Band. For those not in the know, Mark Ballas and Derek Hough are two fan favorite ball room dancers on the popular television show. In addition to Ballas and Hough, Emily Grace on keyboards and vocals, bassist Sam Marder and drummer Harry Sullivan.
My favorite catchy songs on the Ballas Hough Band self titled CD are the first three a "Do You Love Me," "Devastated", Closer. I love the tune of Devastated as it makes me want to get up and dance much to my kid's chagrin. Devastated has a Maroon 5 flavor as the Ballas Hough Band worked with Eric Valentine who produced the All American Reject's lastest album. "Birthday" seems to be a retro track and has a 70ish feel to it.
"She was the One" has a good beat but I don't care for the solo vocals on this track it seems too plain when it is solo. I do like it when the entire group is singing on this song. If you like slower songs, you will like "Longing For" and "Underwater."
I'm really enjoying listening to the music on this soundtrack. While some may say it is for a younger set, I'm 30 and love to listen to the "younger" sounding music. It may be because it makes me feel young!
What's great about it: Music
I would recommend this to a friend!
