"Blue have come a long way since "All Rise" their debut album released in November 2001. Now in December 2002, they have another album "One Love", under their belts. This album hit #1 in the UK instantly, and is currently #2. This album is better then "All Rise", because it has more tracks and the guys helped write more of the songs. The stand out tracks are:4. Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word (featuring Elton John) - A beautiful ballad with great vocals from all 4 guys. Elton John gets his two cents too, and helps out at the end of the song. This is a UK #1 hit.
5. She Told Me - A cool midtempo song with funny lyrics and an addictive chorus.
7. U Make Me Wanna - Another midtempo track with a BRILLIANT chorus and so damn catchy verses. Great music, too.
9. Supersexual - A very cool, catchy upbeat song with a dancy chorus and great verses.
11. Get Down - The best song on the album, co-written by the lovely Duncan. This is slinky, sexy with a catchier then flu chorus and smooth verses.
12. Privacy - Another cool party song with great vocals and a catchy chorus.
15. Like A Friend - a sweet ballad with meaningful lyrics.The other songs are great too, but those are the stand out tracks in my opinion. If you liked "All Rise", definitely get "One Love", it's more of the same funky groovy songs that Blue are famous for!"
Great sound - but All rise was better

"Despite the fact that Lee voice makes every gurl cry her eyes out and Dunk's smile makes every gurl weak in the knees, the sound of All rise was better. This was just fall-into-the-back-of-the-shelf-after-a-couple-of-weex CD, while All rise's lyrics totally absorbed you in. A few good songs, (nothing to dance to that much) like One love, Flexin', U make me wanna, Supersexual, Privacy and Without you. The rest get really, really boring. All in all, a very good album, just didn't live up to my standards. Luking forward to new single, Guilty as well as new album. :) Still luv ya, Blue!!!"
