Reviews Customer Reviews for You Light Up My Life Inspirational Songs      MISLEADING EDITORIAL REVIEW      Rating:      Others have made an excellent job of reviewing this album, so I will not repeat their comments here. However, I wish Amazon would have a rating system for their editorial reviews. The gentleman that reviewed this album either never heard it himself, or else has a vendetta for inspirational songs. If I could, I would rate this editorial review with ZERO stars, and ask Amazon to withdraw his review, for it detracts from the album and actually hurt sales. Like it or not, far from "reading from a teleprompter", she is singing with an intensity that will send chills down your spine. She is simply being sober with these songs as appropriate. It is most misleading.     Customer Reviews for You Light Up My Life Inspirational Songs Cd      Beautiful      Rating:      I really have no respect for the CRITIC Amazon let to critize this album you are a loser "Rich Kienzle" evidently you dont know anything about music how can you call something so SOULFUL , SOULLESS?

Editorial Reviews for You Light Up My Life Inspirational Songs Audio Cd      Amazon.com      This 1997 album debuted at the top of the pop, country, and Christian album charts. Sadly, it underscored the artistic vacuum surrounding Rimes in the wake of her explosive 1996 hit single "Blue." At a time when female country singers were being lauded for their growing depth and sophistication, this collection of "inspirational songs" seemed anachronistic and downright corny. The concept was more appropriate to a TV-marketed album by some faded legend than a singer so young. Even the best singers would have difficulty bringing anything new to the over-recorded title song, "Bridge Over Troubled Waters," "God Bless America," "Amazing Grace," and "The Star Spangled Banner," songs impossible to redefine. That might explain why Rimes's vocals throughout are as soulless and detached as her performance of "Blue" was passionate and earthy. At times, she sounds as if she's singing from a teleprompter. The album's success is undeniable. Whether it did her talent justice is another matter. --Rich Kienzle
