"Discovered by legendary producers Brown Bannister and Brent Bourgeois at one of Colorado Christian music conferences, gorgeous mami Rachel Lampa brings us "Blessed: The Best of Rachel Lampa". With four albums under her belt (her 2000 debut album, "Live For You", 2002's "Kaleidoscope" and "Blur"-her remix album and 2004's self-titled, "Rachel Lampa"), her star continues to rise the Kingdom of Heaven daily. My personal favorites are the heart-moving ballads, "No Greater Love", "There Is Still A Dream" (featuring legendary R&B crooner-turned Christian singer Aaron Neville), "Blessed", the pop-inspired songs, "Savior Song", "I'm All Yours" and "You Lift Me Up". The whole album is tight from the first track to the last. Also, enjoying equal success are her Word Music labelmates Jaci Velasquez and Nicole C. Mullen.

If you think that Rachel Lampa's Best Of.... album was tight, check out the Best Of.... albums from both Jaci Velasquez and Nicole C. Mullen. You won't be disappointed. Even though Rachel is 50% Filipina, 25% Irish and 25% Hungarian, she has proven to be 100% Christian. Rachel Lampa. One of Christian music's promising and prominent artists. Keep her in your prayers as she continues to praise the Lord's name through her music. Praise the Lord!"

"1. Blessed - one of Rachael Lampa's best songs. She starts out singing pretty low, and by the end of the song her voice is wonderfully high. 10/10

2. Beautiful - this is a easy-listening song with a bit of a R&B feel to it. Very soulful and nice. 8/10

3. Outrageous - It's got a good beat, but it's not my favorite song on the album. 6/10

4. Shaken - This is a remix of the original song, but it's got a great beat with great lyrics. 8/10

5. Always Be My Home - the song that made me fall in love with Rachael's music. I sing this song at church, it's one of my favorites. Rachael at her best. 10/10.

6. Live For You - it's got a Mexican-feel to it, but I love it. It's got great lyrics and a good beat. One of her best fast songs. I sing this one at church as well. :D 10/10

7. Savior Song - pretty good lyrics and a beat, but not one of my favorite songs on the album. It can feel a little repetitive. 7/10

8. You Lift Me Up - this song was the first song I'd ever heard from Rachael. Very good beat and lyrics. One of her best fast songs. 10/10

9. Day of Freedom - When I first heard this song on the "Live For You" album, I was like...."Um....no". But I have grown to LOVE this song. The lyrics are great, good beat. 10/10

10. No Greater Love - My FAVORITE song on the album. I love most all of her slow songs, but this one defiantly stands out from the others. It's a beautiful song. I sing this one at church as well. 10/10

11. I'm All Yours - Fast song with a good beat and lyrics. It's nice, and very different. 8/10

12. God Loves You - Fast song with great lyrics! 8/10

13. When I Fall - My favorite fast Rachael Lampa song. It sounds very different from her other fast songs. Got this one playing in my myspace profile. It's got great lyrics with a pop/rock beat. I sing this one at church as well. 10/10

14. There Is Still A Dream w/ Aaron Neville - I love it. It's a great duo song, and Rachael does a great job. 10/10

15. My Father's Heart - WONDERFUL slow song that really showcases her vocals. This was the very first Rachael Lampa song I sung at church. 10/10



There are two more songs on the album that are remixes of Savior Song and Day of Freedom, so I'm not going to rate them



That totals 135 out of 150 points, which is 4 ½ stars, which rounds to 5 stars. :D I'd defiantly recommend this album to any Christian pop music fan.

"This album has all her best songs on one c.d. She even has a brand new song called "There is still a dream". It is the most beautiful ballad i have ever heard her sing. If you don't have any of her other albums i would recomend you get this! Even if you have all her c.d.'s you could still get it. Rachael Lampa is so talented. Her powerful voice is definately a God given gift!!!
