What an Amazing CD this is! acoustic guitar at its Best. He really sounds great in this format, the songs are very beautiful and melodic and I can never get tired of hearing this CD. To me the best part of all of Colin's earlier work was his harmony vocals that he adds in the studio, I love to hear all the very differen't and amazing ways he overlaps his vocals, So when I heard this CD for the first time I was surprised to hear just an acoustic guitar and just colin's single vocal track. Do yourself a favor and don't let this one pass you by, just buy it! you'll love it. Best CD I've bought in years I was blown away, the show was amazing! I bought "Going Somewhere". I saw Colin Hay at a local club in Orlando, only knowing he was the singer from Men at Work, I didn't know what to expect. It has been years since I've bought a CD I've enjoyed so much. Buy this CD! You will not be disapointed. Also if you get a chance to see Colin live dont miss it! Every song on this CD is brilliant!. Acoustic music has never sounded so good! His mastery of harmony, song writing and guitar is unmatched, Hays soothing vocals and reflective lyrics leave you wanting more. Acoustic music has never sounded so good! Colin Hay has reached perfection with his 6th solo effort. If Hays vocals sound a little familiar, they should, he fronted the Australian Grammy Award winning band Men At Work. Since going solo in 1986 Hay has improved dramatically with each album. His latest effort going somewhere is the best acoustic album in years- bar none. If you aren't familiar with Colin Hay, or think it's Men at Work revisited- think again, Hay has achieved a distinctive style all his own. If you haven't done so already, take the time and introduce yourself to Colin Hay, you'll be glad you did!. Sleeper Album of the Year He has re-invented himself as a solo artist, almost a folk artist (check out the guitar style), and has delivered a set of beautiful, sometimes sunny, sometimes bittersweet songs. Out of left field (Australia, actually) comes Colin Hay, '80s pop star as the voice of Men At Work, lately reduced to quiz show trivia question. His voice is strong as ever, and his lyrics range from memories of childhood to the strength he's gained from giving up drinking and smoking. This is a real sleeper, sure to surprise anyone lucky enough to hear it. Excellent Great voice - great guitar. This cd is excellent. Nothing else needs to be said.
