Your Songs by Harry Connick, Jr. *Review and Giveaway*


I decided to have a spur-of-the-moment candlelight dinner today, inspired by the new music in my CD player. One2One Network sent me a copy of Harry Connick, Jr.'s newest album, Your Songs, to review and it really put me in a romantic mood. Now I'll be honest...this isn't the type of music I typically listen to, but I can't help but appreciate the level of talent it takes to pull off music of this caliber.

This album is full of classic, recognizable tunes that are sure to help you relax and unwind. The perfect soundtrack for a date night at home! The songs you'll hear include:



All The Way (Frank Sinatra)
Just The Way You Are (Billy Joel)
Can’t Help Falling In Love With You (Elvis Presley)
And I Love Her (The Beatles)
(They Long To Be) Close To You (The Carpenters)
Besame Mucho
The Way You Look Tonight
First Time Ever I Saw Your Face (Roberta Flack)
Your Song (Elton John)
Some Enchanted Evening
And I Love You So (Don McLean)
Who Can I Turn To? (Tony Bennett)
Smile (Charlie Chaplin)
Mona Lisa (Nat King Cole)

Visit Harry's website to learn more about the man and the music!
