Keep On - Will Young

A third album by Will Young managed to do just as well as his previous successes although at the beginning did struggle after a risky choice of lead single in a non-ballad in the form of Switch it On. This album was critically acclaimed by Young, appeared in the chart for just over a year and has to date sold just under one million copies. Amazing! Keep On is as brilliant album opener you could possibly imagine, it tricks you into thinking it's a slow midtempo number before it launches in to a fast paced musical number with beats- a brilliant show stunner!Switch it On, was a risky choice of lead single, it's different and catchy but has the potential to be ...  Read the complete review

Having been a supporter of Will Young for seven years, this album was meant to click with me straight away, except it didnt - not right away anyway. It's only now that i realise the brilliance of this record and why it was so great. It has now sold 950,000 and it will eventually sell 1,000,000 copies.

The Pop Idol winner is now a fully-fledged Artist, and the critic's cant deny it. Nobody would have blamed Will for a half-hearted album. He has had a busy year, ...  Read the complete review

We've had this album for quite a while now, but I've never really bothered to listen to it much. I put it on yesterday while we were pottering about, and found it to be easy to listen to, although nothing special. Will Young won Pop Idol, the precursor to X Factor on ITV. This seems an eternity ago now, and was indeed the best part of a decade ago. This album was released in 2005, around 4 years ago, and was instantly a hit. It starts off with his hit single, keep On, a fastish beat and a commercial number that is quite a good sound. The album then continues on a faster beat with the second track, Switch It On, before dropping to the first melodic ballad. It's ...  Read the complete review
