Album Review

George Michael's follow-up to the massive success of Faith found him turning inward, trying to gain critical acclaim as well as sales. Listen Without Prejudice, Vol. 1 is not an entirely successful effort; Michael has cut back on the effortless hooks and melodies that crammed not only Faith but also his singles with Wham!, and his socially conscious lyrics tend to be heavy-handed. But the highlights -- the light, Beatlesque harmonies of "Heal the Pain," the plodding number one "Praying for Time," and also "Waiting for That Day" as well as the Top Ten "Freedom" -- make a case for his talents as a pop craftsman. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

A very mature and professional album. Not as exciting as his previous work, but very well produced and melodic. Not a bad song on it.

I loved this CD when it first came out...heck, I stil do. In my opinion, this albums shows off George Michael's vocal strength more than most of his others.
