Editorial Review:

Since shooting to stardom on the second season of American Idol, Clay Aiken, the Raleigh, NC, native with the powerhouse voice has become a international pop phenomenon who has sold six million albums. In addition, Aiken has launched eight live tours, made the New York Times best-seller list, and won several American Music and Billboard Music Awards. In January 2008, Aiken made his Broadway debut in the Tony Award-winning musical Monty Python's Spamalot.

When Clay began the search for songs to record for Aiken's first album of original material since his 2003 chart-topping debut Measure of A Man, he fell in love with a song written by OneRepublic front man Ryan "Alias" Tedder called "On My Way Here." The message of the lyrics -- how the lessons we learn while growing up shape us into who we become as adults -- struck such a deep chord with Aiken that it wound up inspiring the theme (and title) of his new collection.

To musically represent the album's lyrical theme, Aiken and Foster enlisted Grammy-Award winning British songwriter and producer Kipper, who has worked with Sting, Chris Botti, and Julia Fordham.

Refined Talent

If you are a Clay Aiken fan already from his American Idol days or just someone who appreciates a great signing voice, you need look no further than this new album, "On my Way Here". Say what you want about his personal life, the man has got a great set of pipes and shows on this new album the depth of his vocal ability. You won't be disappointed with Clay's new album. He is one of the best vocal artists around.

It's Over For Me

I realized after listening to this latest CD that Clay is over for me. Not one song's lyrics "spoke" to me, and the singing and arrangements produced not one song I felt like humming afterward, even if I could remember it. Whether it's the writers or genre Clay is choosing, I feel his musical albums have become almost non-musical. His performances on AI were electric and memorable; this album is the opposite, and it's all a bit depressing for me. Fortunately I checked this album out from the library before spending any $ on it.

The real American Idol

I love this CD. That is a singing young man. He should have won on American Idol, but then we know that show is a joke.
