Welcome Home - Brians debut solo album

Advantages: Showcases Brians vocals quite well, some catchy tracks,
Disadvantages: Wont appeal to all, BSB fans and others, some tracks slightly 'filler'

...- Introduction - Brian Littrell is well known as being one of the Backstreet Boys, one of the biggest selling boy bands of the 1990s. Anyone who has been a fan of his or has read many interviews with him from the start, will be aware that his faith is pretty important to him and plays a big part in his life. When asked what he might have been, had he not become a member of the group, he has often said that he would have gone on to become a youth minister or something similar and he has also stated from early on that if he were to do a solo project, it would likely involve his faith and that he would like to make an accessible records that would hopefully bring religion and faith to perhaps non religious people, such as some Backstreet Boys fans. Brians first solo album, entitled Welcome Home, was finally released in the US in...

Review of Welcome Home - Brian Littrell

Welcome Home, Brian Littrell!

Advantages: Brian's vocals
Disadvantages: Lyrical content

...Brian Littrell is perhaps better known as a 15 year member of the supergroup Backstreet Boys, which dominated the pop charts around the world in the 90's and early 00's. While the group where on some downtime in 2004 Brian decided to start writing and recording his debut album. Later in 2005, when this album was scheduled to be released, following a number one song on the inspirational charts called In Christ Alone (which later won him Inspirational Record of the Year at the Dove Awards - the Christian equivalent of the Grammy's), the album was pushed back in favour of releasing and touring with the Backstreet Boys comeback album, Never Gone. Once the Never Gone tour finished in early 06, Littrell headed back into the studio to finish work on what was to become Welcome Home, a contemporary Christian CD which focuses directly onto his...

Review of Welcome Home - Brian Littrell

Welcome Home

Advantages: Brian's brilliant voice
Disadvantages: The songs are too religious for the everyday buyer

...Brian Littrell started, and continues, his career as a member of the Backstreet Boys, one of the most popular Boy bands to grace the 90's music scene. Brian though felt it was about time for him to release a solo album and this is it. Brian Littrell's Christian debut album Welcome Home. Song Listing: 1 - My Answer Is You 2 - Wish 3 - Welcome Home (You) 4 - You Keep Givin' Me 5 - Gone Without Goodbye 6 - I'm Alive 7 - Over My Head 8 - We Lift You Up 9 - Grace Of My Life 10 - Angels And Heroes 11 - Jesus Loves You Throughout the album Brian addresses issues of his faith and his family and happiness. It's not the feel good album that I would have expected from a Backstreet Boy but it's definately a moving and thought provoking album. Whilst listening to this CD I found some of the songs to be a bit too slow for my liking...

Review of Welcome Home - Brian Littrell

Welcome Home, Corrs.

Advantages: Wonderful source material; appealing arrangements with long shelf life; excellent sound; BBC Concert Orchestra.
Disadvantages: Sharon's violin, Corrs' vocal harmonies underused; bubblegum track, 'Old Town'.

...and contemporary songs used by the Corrs are good, bonny and sturdy pieces of music - they haven't lasted all these years for no reason - and once you're hooked, the seduction is complete. Listeners can look forward to a long shelf life for these modern skins for old songs, thanks to a refreshing maturity to the Corrs' music here that was only hinted at before. Does 'Home' mark the beginning of a deeper exploration by the Corrs of their Celtic roots then? Only time will tell, but for now, I'd just like to say this with arms wide open, Welcome home, Corrs, welcome home! * * * * 1/2 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Track Listing: 1. My Lagan Love 2. Spancilll Hill 3. Peggy Gordon 4. Black Is The Colour 5. Heart Like A Wheel 6. Buachaill On Eirne 7. Old Hag 8. Moorlough Shore 9. Old Town 10. Dimming Of The Day 11. Brig Og Ni Mhaille 12. Haste To...

Disney's Wilderness Lodge: Welcome Home

Advantages: A hotel brimming with personality and themed to perfection
Disadvantages: Expensive. But you get what you pay for.

...like jam jars and tucking into classic family meals. To the right of reception a small den has a television playing cartoons surrounded by cushions that children can sit on to pass the time. Look through the windows at the back and you'll catch sight of a working geyser. And over all of these sights is a constantly playing ambience soundtrack, making this entire experience of staying at Wilderness Lodge feel every bit as special and epic as you know it is. The whole decoration and feel to the hotel is enough to put a smile on your face that will not be wiped until you leave. This fantastic ambience is backed up by friendly staff who will always go beyond the call of duty. From the valet who opens the car door and says "Welcome home!", to the reception staff willing to go out of their way to make the difference to your stay, every member...

Welcome to Marymooseport!

Advantages: A nice & mildly amusing film, includes a moose!
Disadvantages: Film got bad press and was a flop, not enough moose in it.

...Welcome to Marymooseport (there's a Maryport, and now a Mooseport, so I think there should be a Marymooseport)! An introduction For those of you who don't have the pleasure of knowing me, my name is not marymoose because I look like a moose (although if indeed you think that I look like a moose I will take that as a compliment), it is because I am obsessed with moose (and before you ask, the plural of moose is moose) and all things moose-related. Back when I worked at the Church of England imagine my excitement when I was surfing the net one day (searching for moose I would imagine) and came across a new film that was being made called "Welcome to Mooseport". It was like all my Christmoose's and Moosedays had come at once! It wasn't until a year later that I finally managed to get my hands on the DVD. The film was...

Home Alone

Advantages: Comdey none stop
Disadvantages: None

...Home Alone, was a classic hit comedy film that was first released in 1991. Even in my adulthood, I am more than happy to watch the film again, and when I was a kid I use to remember watching this film a hundred times during the Christmas holidays and summer holidays. It was such a feel good family fun film; it was the sort of film that even if you?ve watched it once you would never gets bored watching it over and over again. Plot: The film opens with the entire McCallister family packing for their Christmas vacation to France. The family is exceptionally big, some 30 plus including adults. Kevin McCallister the youngest in the family needs help packing his luggage, the older kids simply don?t have the time or the patience to help him, he feels left out and unwanted, just like most teenagers.

Welcome to a Great Holiday

Advantages: Fab playground
Disadvantages: Clubhouse can get busy

...in full. ***On arrival*** Once you get to the holiday park you will find a small carpark next to the reception if there is no room there are plenty of other carparks around the park. The first thing you need to do is go to the reception to see if your holiday home is ready. Usually we arrive at 2pm and the caravan is ready even though it says on the booking form it wont be ready till 4pm. The reception staff are fantastic they will give you a map and tell you how to get to your holiday home. They will also tell you that you need to go to the housekeepers storeroom to pick up your linen. One of the things I love about Welcome is they give you a real good welcome! When you enter your caravan/chalet the first thing you will see on the table is cups , a teapot , little sachets of cofee , cocoa and tea , biscuits , sugar...
