Product Description
Album Description
Born in 1974, British tenor Russell Watson became an opera singer by freak occurrence. While he was regularly singing in bars and clubs in the Manchester and London suburbs, an owner of one such venue told Watson that he thought his voice was better suited for opera and requested that he learn Puccini's 'Nessum Dorma', which he did and promptly added to his set. Watson eventually signed with Decca Records, issuing his debut, entitled The Voice, in April of 2001. Nicknamed 'the People's Tenor', Watson seems poised to convert more than a few opera naysayers as he covers such contemporary compositions as Freddie Mercury's 'Barcelona', in addition to the standards. Includes the 2 bonus tracks 'I Have Nothing' & 'Can't Help Falling In Love'. 2006.

Russell Is outstanding,
This review is from: Voice: Ultimate Collection (Audio CD)
There are and have been a lot of great classical singers over time but not many that have sounded so clear and crisp as Russell Watson. He is a gerat pleasure to sit back and listen to almost everything he sings.

This review is from: Voice: Ultimate Collection (Audio CD)
There are not enough superlatives to describe this young man. This is truly "the best of the best" ...all of his best in one CD. The bonus track "Can't Help Falling In Love" is worth the price of admission!! Wish he would tour in the USA!

Excellent,
By Melissa Mcnitt - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Voice: Ultimate Collection (Audio CD)
I heard about Russell Watson on the aol welcome screen news items--in reference to the operation he recently went through. I went to his site and was captivated by his music. I love this cd, especially the song "Barcelona." His voice is magical. I highly recommend this cd.
