Free Music Notes for The Fighting Temptations
Free Music Review: Great religious CD and I DON'T DO religious music. Not hardly!
Hit: 4 Stars
The great news is that this isn't completely a religious CD, it's just made up of that mostly. Most of it is upbeat or mid-tempos galore, with a little bit of pop but mostly R&B tracks mixed in.
The religious tracks are: Heaven Knows, I Know, Rain Down, To Da River, I'm Getting Ready, The Stone, Loves Me Like A Rock, Swing Low Sweet Chariot, He Still Loves Me & finally (PHEW) last but not least, Time To Come Home.
My favorites are Swing Low Sweet Chariot a gospel-tinged mid-tempo that Beyonce works and works again with her wondrous power-vocal delivery. But what else do you expect from this R&B siren, gone gospel for this track? Initially I was just touched by the outro, but the whole song is great now. Best track on the album, religious or not.
Time To Come Home is a close second though. Very inspirational and upbeat. 5/5
Rain Down is the 3rd best track. It's very fun, features a hip-hop beat that works and the vocals are good through and through, especially by Angie, the lady at the end and Montel Jordan. Very soulful but combines hip-hop (beat) and pop (feel). 4.4/5
I'm Getting Ready - another gospel track that takes you on a ride to the soul train. Nice vocals and the church-abiding piano arrangement is gorgeous. Some organ can be heard also. The lyrics are a very strong point too. 4.3/5.
