After debuting at No. 1 last week, Richard Clayderman’s album Essential 20 falls to No. 2 with 943,000, a sales slide of 94%. There is no doubt that Richard Clayderman has talent. When you buy a Richard Clayderman album, you know exactly what you’re getting! This is what good New Age should be.
I can’t stop humming along Amour Pour Amour. Another Day In Paradise one is one of the better boring ones. Some of the arrangements found on Essential 20 are surprisingly edgy. Put Have I Told You Lately into car stereo for your highway driving I Will Always Love You is such a exquisite and optimistic song that things can get just better. |titile| is the kind of record that makes you remember why music can be so addictive. This track is possibly the biggest guilty pleasure on Essential 20. Love Story is just a great song and one well worth taking the time to give it a good listen. Voice and instruments in Moon River complement each other. Moonlight and Roses - Richard Clayderman first major hit. My Way - I just love it. Voice of Richard Clayderman in Ode To Joy is honest and guitar work is subtle and poignant. Only You is a song that definitely grows on you and becomes an album favorite. Strangers In The Night is a very catchy tune. Vocals of Richard Clayderman in Streets Of Philadelphia really capture me and are set perfectly to the rhythm. Blew our minds when we first heard Unchained Melody. Richard Clayderman is hitting on all cylinders in When A Man Loves A Woman.
