Advantages: Generally nice, excellent albums, brillant voice

Disadvantages: Sometimes appears to be a little complacent and above people

Over 6 years Will Young has proven that he has talent and has produced four brillant albums and 12 magnificent singles to showcase his diversity, uniqueness and voice. Selling out arena after arena since 2002 and having sold now over 6 million records and growing Will is most certaintely has overtaken Robbie Williams in the title of Most Popular Male Solo artist in the UK.

His last album ''Let It Go'' sold a staggering 20,000 in one day and 70k in the first week and is now approaching well over 150,000 album sales in the space of a couple of weeks. But Young is mostly known for his singing, but his incredible music career has also let him be involved in several theatre and movie productions such as the huge Mrs Henderson Presents and plays like Noel Cowards The Vortex and critics have overtime admitted that Will Young is talented.

The first album had 4 covers as singles and a brillant original single of You And I - it was always the second that was going to prove his worth and Friday's Child doubled Will's sales to show that -i think now Leave Right Now by far Will's best moment has now sold 500,000 singles and is one of the biggest hits of the 21st century. Through the Will has released heart warming ballads ''Who Am I'', ''You And I'', ''All Time Love'' and more recently the brillant Changes but the stompers as Your Game, Light My Fire, Switch It On prove that Will is unique

The new album is fantastic in that it is more pop, catchy and hence really really good standouts come in the form of Grace, Changes and I Won't Give Up. I would encourage anyone to not read any media article on Will and judge the music for itself because if you get Will like i do, it's fantastic - the most recent album is a corker.

I thiink it's difficult to say that Will has changed and that i have to admit i did prefer the old Will, despite being a huge supporter i do have admit most recently and i mean particularly the Keep On era Will tends to come off sligtly cocky, complacent in that Switch it On was a gamble he took because he thought people would buy it anyway but when it didnt sell like that it showed Will had to be really really good to sell and i think thats what sums up Will, the public will like and buy Will as long as he is good, if he releases a bad song - it's over! and i don't want to admit that i own all the singles, albums, books and DVDs and will buy future releases but the new album disproves that.

Summary: Excellent music by a brillant singer but...
