Summary: He's ok...
Comment: Generally clear and melodic voice, but it sometimes gets a bit thick in the lower ranges, while he strains on the higher notes and occasionally goes a bit sharp. I completely disagree that he sounds anything like Bocelli; his voice is definitely not of that caliber. The songs had good variety, but he lacks the color, or perhaps emotional quality of a Bocelli or even Josh Groban to bring them to life.

Summary: When is his next album ?
Comment: I found this wonderful voice from Moulin Rouge's soundtrack, track 4 - Your Song. I couldn't be happier when I got this album, but I have been wondering when his next album will be available.
I have no issue with Andrea Bocelli, nor with Josh Gorban, but Safina's voice just way too addictive to put it aside. It's the true Tenor that uses his voice to wrap around you with power and emotion in every note.

Summary: A GREAT TENOR
Comment: I love Mr. Safina's voice!Mr. Safina's vocal technique is without flaw(NOT a weak unsupported sound)but has plenty of back space(That produce rich full tones and incredible high notes.. unlike tenors that try to place tones and have no top worth talking about)take note of a perfect singer that can sing pop to GRAND opera. I wish He would make an album with opera arias. Mr Safina sounds like a modern day Caruso or Franco Corelli. He is the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Summary: Wonderful voice, great voice - but who is the female vocalist?
Comment: I think the whole eponymous Alessandro Safina album is fantastic, and there isn't really anything I can add to the reviews that have been written. But I =do= want to know the name of the female vocalist on "Only You (Luna)". I heard the voice and the words singing "Only you can hear my soul..." while picking up some coffee one day, but instead of Alessandro Safina's voice coming in as I expected, the woman continued on with her song. On "Only You" the counterpoint of the two voices is magnificent, yet on her solo, whoever she is, the song was rich and bluesy. I'd like to buy her CD, too, if she has one. Does anyone know her name? It's not on the credits on Alessandro Safina's CD.

Summary: Raves!
Comment: My friend discovered this disk in 2003, Although it was the Insieme A Te one. He lent it to me back then and after i had bought my own i dived straight into his voice, even after 2 years i'm still in love with Safina's incredible vocals. He seems to be able to hold a note for as long as an eternity. You cannot help but be drawn into his voice and he holds your attention like a good bar of chocolate. In fact you can sit down with a nice cup of hot chocolate in your hand pop the cd into your player and enjoy.. Its a wonderful chill out disk.

Editorial Reviews:
|
An Italian tenor in the tradition of the enormously popular Andrea Bocelli, Alessandro Safina has long been admired and championed in the Netherlands, though he's made light of by his native country. Now, with his American major label debut, a self-titled collection, Safina soars into the popera limelight, his darkly sensual vocals powerful, assured, and flat-out sexy. Melodically affecting in a manner oddly parallel to that of the Eminem/Dido vocal juxtaposition on "Stan," Safina opens with "Only You (Luna)," wherein his masculine posturing is underscored and buffeted by an angelic female vocal refrain until the song fairly bursts like showers of fireworks in an open canvas of sky. Starting with the bar quite high, Safina's pipes nonetheless maintain the emotional posture of the record throughout, positing the singer as dream tenor of the year. --Paige La Grone
