 A definite grower! March 16, 2009

This is a definite grower! I've had the CD for a week now and can definitely recommend it.
br /
br /I love Lee's musical theatre voice but this album shows how versatile he is, just as he showed on Any Dream Will Do. He rocks out Drops of Jupiter, but then can put all his emotion and personal experience into his co-written Breathe You Out and then moves on to the more theatrical Through the Barricades which is stunning.
br /
br /Theres are some really good new tracks, two co-written by Lee, in among the covers all of which as always Lee makes his own.
br /
br /I find it difficult to choose a favourite from this album as I keep changing my mind, but I feel Lee is at his best when his emotion and intensity can come through and so will choose More than Words as that is the track that always makes me stop what I am doing to listen and is all about "the Voice".
Nothing Else Matters ... but hearing the rest! February 17, 2009

I must preface this review by saying that at this stage I have heard only the lead track 'Nothing Else Matters' in full (fab video by the way), and preview clips of two further tracks, from this eagerly-awaited second album from West End star Lee Mead.
br /
br /But based on this limited sample, on a track listing that includes new material from some of the best song-writers in the business alongside a refreshingly bold choice of covers, and on my confidence in Lee's stunning voice and in the passion and commitment with which he will have approached this project, I wholeheartedly recommend it.
br /
br /I especially look forward to hearing Lee's two co-writes - 'Breathe You Out' (the preview clip promises much) and 'Good To Be Alive' - and his take on one of my favourite tracks of all time 'More Than Words' - a piano-backed vocal rather than the acoustic guitar more often associated with this track. I'm sure I won't be disappointed!
br /
br /Edit 5 March 09: OK, I've heard snippets of the rest now and I'm as far from disappointed as it's possible to be!
Lee Mead's fantastic second album. March 7, 2009

I have followed Lee's career with great interest since the beginning of Any Dream Will Do. I loved his debut album but Nothing Else Matters has completely topped that.
br /
br /Highlights on this album are Lee's co-writes Breathe You Out and Good To Be Alive. His cover of Through The Barricades is shows off his stunningly silky voice. He puts his own stamp on the Spandau Ballet classic. A personal favourite of mine is Drops of Jupiter- a cover of the great song by Train. Lee shows just how versatile his voice is with this track.
br /
br /The album includes some originals and cover versions including a track with Hayley Westerna. I would highly recommend this album, especially to those people who didn't feel as pleased with the first album as this completely excels it.

Love this new album by the fabulous Lee Mead. Variety of styles, superb songs and Lee's voice powerful and emotional. The songs just ask to be listened to again and again and every time they give you something extra. Through the Barricades, Breathe You Out and Lee's duet with Hayley Westernra just blew me away. There isn't one bad track on this album. I'm just so glad I bought it.
Strong vocals, lovely set of songs March 20, 2009

I have been very pleasantly surprised by this album. Given his success on stage in the role of Joseph, Lee Mead could have taken the obvious route of recording an album of musical theatre standards. Instead he has tried something different and come up with a really strong set of 'contemporary pop' songs with a good mixture of interesting covers and new compositions. For me, there isn't a weak track on the album but I particularly like his stripped down version of 'Through the Barracides ' and the new ballad 'Breathe You Out' which both show off Lee's warm, slightly husky vocals to great effect. It's lovely to hear 'pop' songs from someone who can really sing and knows how to use his voice!
