"Delta Goodrem is one of those rare and brilliant artists. If you've never heard of her, this wonderfully talented teenager has an amazing quality voice, pure and strong. And her singing isn't all - she also plays the piano (barefoot) as she sings. Classically trained, her music isn't what we're used to with other "pop princesses", featuring amazing melodies and lyrics with a soft and comfortable beat to it. No bouncy sickly sweet britney/christina type manufacturing here, Delta is one in a million. If you liked Alicia Keys or Celine Dion, then you will fall in love with Delta. I am being absolutely honest when I say that she is the best singer I have ever heard (she is my favourite artist) and you will be hardpressed to find anyone so unique and talented. This christmas version of 'Not Me, Not I' is not that common so be quick! I bought this a few weeks ago and I must say that out of all her singles that I own (and I have almost all of them!) this one is definately the best. NMNI (which debuted at #2 on the australian charts and had hit #1 by its second week) is my favourite track from her hugely successful album for more reasons than I can fit into words. If you have never heard this song before then you must! The CD itself features more tracks and extra videos than any other of her CDs, and it has some really lovely christmas songs on there too. It includes the music video of NMNI, which Delta shot between rounds of chemo just weeks after getting diagnosed with cancer, her live performance at the Channel[V] concert, and a video of her at the arias (where she was nominated for 10 categories and went home with 9 honours) Whether you are a Delta fan or if you've never heard of her before, this is an excellent CD."
