CD Review: Will YOung 'Friday's Child'

THINK back. Who won the first Pop Idol? As much as Gareth Gates has been wooing the media, it was in fact Will Young who took the prize.

And when you listen to the honeyed tones on his newest album Friday's Child, you can see why.

The CD kicks off with a cover of 'Love The One You're With', and while this is nothing to write home about, it is a very solid rendition.

He has already released Leave Right Now as a single, which shows a darker side of his personality.

There are 11 tracks on the CD, and they have quite a nice variety.

With many tracks co-written by Will, this album has a sense of individuality and freedom . It takes the listener through many emotions with jazzier tunes like 'Dance The Night Away' to the stunning sound of the track chosen to title the album, 'Friday's Child'.

This album does start to make you move your feet, but it ends up being an excellent soundtrack to a relaxing night. All in all, a lovely stocking filler.
