About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

Fly represents Brightman's foray into the world of electronica, which may surprise some fans of the acclaimed singer who have long associated her with the Broadway and classical genres. Beginning with a sound most associated with the former Phantom of the Opera star (although the international smash "Time to Say Goodbye" did not appear on the original release), the music quickly turns to a Euro-techno style offset by a pop/rock tone, with a couple of romantic ballads thrown in for good measure. Included in this set are the German hits "Question of Honor," a techno/rock/dance number interlaced with opera and written for boxer Henry Mask; "How Can Heaven Love Me," a duet with Manfred Mann's Earth Band lead singer, Chris Thompson; and a lovely pop ballad, "Heaven Is Here." Even more obscure is a rock duet with singer Tom Jones called "Something in the Air," with obscure being the perfect word to describe this entire outing by an international superstar who seems to rise to the occasion of any musical challenge. While there isn't a cohesive feel to this album as is the case with her later releases, it's still quite enjoyable to listen to Brightman take on what is usually left to the vocally challenged disco/pop queens gracing the Top 40 and dance clubs. ~ Daniel Malich, All Music Guide All Music Guide

June 12, 2006: Sarah Brightman's voice is very thin, stretched, and far too weak in this album. I was not impressed by the way she blended styles, nor the breathiness normally made beautiful in her other songs, yet left weak and unrefined on this CD. I normally love Sarah Brightman, especially when she sings with Andrea Bocelli, but this was not one of her better albums.

April 30, 2003: The Best, And I mean the best. This is one of Sarah Brightman's first cds she made and by far the best. I love how she has all sorts of different songs for pop to opera to rock. My favorite song is ow can Heaven Love me. it is a really good song that is a mix of rock and oerpa put together. If you like sarah's music as much as I do I know you will love this cd as much as I do
