"This CD is awesome. We first heard them perform on "Extreme Makeover" and were deligted to find their CD on Amazon. There voices blend so beautifully. On some songs, it's like you're listening to an angel choir. Have the CD in my van. Very soothing for city driving."
John Barry lovers...this is for you!

"I was startled, as a first time listener, by the melodies of my all-time favorite soundtrack composer, John Barry, and how will the lyrics fit in. (I hadn't heard most of the songs' lyrics.) And there's probably not a better group that could have sung them for me. I know it can sound trite, but listening to this album gave me quite a few shivers! Get it for both of your reasons - great singing and great music!"
It's Okay, but not Il Divo

"They are all good singers, but somehow just didn't do it for me. I guess I am spoiled to Il Divo."
Ten Good Heroes

"There is no doubt these ten Aussies know how to entertain. This CD is fantastic and should be one held in your cd stack
The music is for all types of listeners and is definitely worth spending your dollars on.

Great tenors!

"These tenors are great and the choice of songs is good...the sound clarity so that you can hear the words is not as good as it should be."
