Speaks to my heart Nov 16, 2009 I heard "The Motions" on our local Christian Rock station and had to find it. This album is a treasure! There were at least 3 other songs on the album that I like even better! Matthew West is a fresh voice that speaks to my heart about the wonders of God's love and mercy.
He has something to say Nov 14, 2009 I bought this CD for my dad for his birthday but its so good that I put it on my ipod. His style isnt just stright gospel, hes more alternative rock if anything. Moment of Truth is the best song on this album I think. Whenever I listen to this CD I feel really relaxed.
Keeps Getting Better Oct 09, 2009 Just when I think that Matthew West couldn't do any better, he comes out with a new and even better album. This album covers a lot of major topics that every day people go through from living a more passionate life to losing a loved one. West knows how to reach everyday people. His passion shines through and listeners are able to understand what he is singing about, whether its happy or sad.
I've Found a New Artist Aug 03, 2009 I had heard of Matthew West but never given his music much of a chance before I won this CD in a raffle. As we used to say, "My bad." If this CD is any indication of what his other releases are like, I've found a new artist to enthusiastically follow.
The disc starts off with a nice instrumental intro that leads directly into the upbeat, pop sounds of the title track. It's a fun reminder that God calls us all to share His love as only we can.
But the one song that seems to be tearing up the charts right now is "The Motions." And I can see why. It's a slower ballad that cries out to God to make a change instead of just living a life without feeling or striving to live for Him. It's a powerful song that leaves me crying out to God myself by the time it is over.
The disc really does switch between the more serious and the fun. On the fun side, we've got "Safe and Sound" a quiet upbeat song for a new born baby. But far more serious is "Life Inside You" about people struggling to deal with the pains of life. The song also bounces from the upbeat of "A Friend in This World" to the slower "Save a Place for Me." That last song is perfect as it eloquently expresses the longing to be reunited with a lost loved one in Heaven.
It's actually pretty hard to pick out one or two favorites. Every track is just that good.
But I do have to highlight the disc closer, "Stop the World." It's a plea for God to speak to us in the silence in our lives. The guitar ballad is just the perfect note of seriousness to close the disc. There is a hidden component to this track that has Matthew clowning around with his daughter in the studio. Fortunately, it is quite skippable.
I definitely need to track down Matthew's other releases. I can't believe I missed him for so long. If you've heard any of his songs on the radio and wondered if he was worth buying, the answer is an enthusiastic yes.
Something to say about "Something to Say" Jul 14, 2009 This is a great CD! I recently saw Matthew in concert, and he was fantastic! By listening to the CD I can relive the concert experience. I highly recommend this, as well as Matthew's other two CD's.
