Swoon…Harry Connick Jr. has the most beautiful voice. Not only that he’s very handsome and a good actor too.
I have always liked Harry Connick’s music. Mind you my taste in music is very eclectic. I can listen to Barry Manilow one moment then Metallica the next. Then I might listen to a little something from the Three Tenors and then a song from Linkin Park. I love the classics to big band and from “elevator music” to metal and just about anything in between.
When I learned that Harry had a new CD out where he did covers of popular songs from over the years I just had to hear it for myself.
In Your Songs Harry covers songs from timeless classics like “Some Enchanted Evening” to more modern tunes such as “Just the Way You Are”.
Here are the songs found on the new CD.
- All the Way
- Just the Way You Are
- Can’t Help Falling in Love with You
- And I Love Her
- (They Love to be) Close to You
- Besame Mucho (Kiss Me Much)
- The Way You Look Tonight
- First Time I Ever Saw Your Face
- Your Song
- Some Enchanted Evening
- And I Love You So
- Who Can I Turn to (When Nobody Needs Me)
- Smile
- Mona Lisa
Harry adds his own special “touch” to all of the songs. My husband says whenever he hears Harry singing he automatically thinks about our Harry Connick Jr. Christmas CD that we own. LOL!
The whole CD is easy listening. It’s great to have on when you are working around the house or on the computer, like I often do. I think it would be nice for your commute to and from work too.
My favorite songs on the CD would have to be The Way You Look Tonight. It’s so romantic! His voice is PERFECT for that song. I also love Some Enchanted Evening. Smile is a great song too. Very much a “big band” type of song. All the Way is another favorite of mine.
