Pro Reviews: When I Fall in Love

  • All Music Guide

    Lesley Garrett was around long before operatic divas Katherine Jenkins and Hayley Westenra but she too fancied a stab at pop crossover and on When I Fall In Love. She presented 12 songs, all very familiar and most of the them covered to death by a plethora of artists including most of those classical singers aspiring to be pop stars. This was however her first pure pop album with no classical overtones at all and indeed her first full price album for six years, a long time for anybody to be away in any genre and it became her highest charting album by quite some way, just missing the top 10 in February 2007. The songs were hardly groundbreaking, opening the album with When I Fall In Love of course and travelling through a repertoire of MOR hits including The Way We Were, He Was Beautiful, Where Do I Begin (from Love Story), Moon River, all sung in a clear concise soprano voice that many young singers would do well to emulate. The songs that don't really work with Garrett's voice howeve...r were the Edith Piaf hit Non Je Ne Regrette Rien, perhaps because Garrett was so particularly English and this was one of the archetypal French songs, likewise the Jacques Brel penned Ne Me Quitte Pas of which she does sing the English version, but it didn't quite have the feeling of even the Terry Jacks hit and she was joined by Michael Ball for a duet on Come What May the song from +Moulin Rouge. The album closed with Louis Armstrong's What A Wonderful World, a song so associated with the jazz legend, that it was difficult to interpret in a superior way, although the song would actually have a new lease of life as a charity no.1 hit later in the year by Eva Cassidy and Katie Melua. - Sharon Mawer, All Music Guide Read more Less
