''Pop Idol'', has launched a number of successful careers for several contestants. Will Young, Gareth Gates, Aaaron Bayley, Hayley Evetts, Zoe Birkett, Korben, Laura Docherty, Jessica Garlick, Darius Danesh and Rosie Ribbons make this a great album. They cover big band classics, and make them their own. Each of these artists have a really good voice, and i rate all of these contestants for their voice, and they really all do make this a fantastic Big Band Album.

''Beyond The Sea'' is sang by Will Young. The song is an obvious big band track. A very gentle and soft song. Very nice listening. Will's voice really shows on this song.

''Get Happy'' is an incrediable cover by Zoe Birkett. This track is fantastic, Zoe Birkett takes an old classic and makes it great listening. Again fantastic voice - perfectly suits this genre of music.

''Let There Be Love'' is sang by Darius Danesh. This is mainly a piano based big band track. Very gentle, very soothing as is Darius's voice. Nice track, overall.

''Mack The Knife'' has been covered by many people before, Gareth Gates makes a fantastic attempt here. Gareth's voice perfectly suits this song, the song is an old song that is a great classic, very catchy this is a great cover.

''Everytime We Say Goodbye'' is sang by Jessica Garlick. Fantastic song, and outstandingly well sang by Jessica here. Perfectly suits song, great cover. A very slow big band song, quite a ballad but is catchy and very nice.

''I Get A Kick Out Of You'' is sang by Aaron Bayley. Nice song, very catchy - perfectly suits Aaron's style of music and voice. Quite a poppy song, abit rock as well. But is big band, and greatly sang once again.

''I've Got You Under My Skin'' is again nicely sang by Zoe Birkett. Very well sang, very nice and gentle ballad and pop song. Zoe Birket's vcals on this song are incrediable. Great cover.

''That Ole Devil Called Love Again'' is outstanding. The song is amazing, as is the vocals by Hayley Evetts. This is a very soft, gentle, nice ballad. It is great listening and showcases Hayley's voice very well.

''I Won't Dance'' is by Will Young. Will Young has naturally a soul voice, this is a big band song. It is amazing. The song itself is very very big band styled and Will Young sings this in rhythm, in tune and really well. This is outstanding.

''Night And Day'' is sang by Korben. This shows how good of a voice Korben has. I like listening to this, it is slightly pop but very big band. Really catchy, and excellently sang.

''Cheek To Cheek'' is a cover by Rosie Ribbons. Perflectly suits Rosie Ribbons voice and her style of music. I like listening to this, a very nice song. Amazingly well sang.

''They Can't Take That Away From Me'' is by Laura Dochery. Well sang, suits Laura well. This is a quite a soft upbeat, big band track. It suits Laura really well. Well sang, Really good listening.

''Oh Look At Me'' is a duet with Gareth Gates and Zoe Birkett, with backing vocals by the rest of the Pop Idol contestants. This is a nice track, very poppy but is still big band. Shows excellently how great singers these contestants are, amazing song and amazingly well sang by all contestants.

This a fantastic album. Every artist manages to make the track they concern themselves with, worth listening. This is big band, and very much soulful big band style songs but all songs suit the artists well. I like this album, every track is good, it is well sang and therefore understanbly gives brilliant listening.
