CD Reviews
Old stuff!

"I agree with a fan from Texas. I want to listen to new songs, not recycled songs.. I gave this album 3 stars because they are beautiful pieces, anyway. Hope he will come up with new material soon since I start to think I've seen too many Yanni old albums already. That's why I bought this album on tape, not CD."
All repeats

"I love Yanni's music but, I want NEW music. These are the same songs I have on my other 10 CDs. Just because they re-ordered the tracks doesn't make it new (I can do that on my computer)."
A great comfort

"I have been playing this CD in my ICU rooms since receiving it from a friend and have been asked so often for its title by the surgeons and nurses with whom I work and by the family members of my patients, that I think I can safely recommend it to everyone as a truly emotionally rewarding composition."
I've heard them all before.

"To be brief, he is reshuffeling the deck and selling the same cards. We have ALL the songs on this CD on previously purchased CD's and tapes. What are they trying to pull on us?"
Some songs are better than others
