5 out of 5 stars What Happened?.......2006-01-11

Since Jennifer's music has been thoroughly reviewed for her albums I will take this time to ponder why there have been two greatest hits discs and a live album after only three albums. This would normally amount to meaningless gossip, but I think it may set a precendent for Christian public relations. Did Jennifer fall in love with a woman and bow out of the Christian music industry or did Jennifer fall in love with a woman and get "released" from her six record deal with Gotee Records through live albums and greatest hits? Nevermind the Bullocks, we loved what she has done and will miss her public presence immensely.

4 out of 5 stars It's better off this way.......2005-12-12

I have this problem of judging people by their genres before ever hearing their music. Because Jennifer Knapp is lumped in the genre of Christian, I almost overlooked her. I did the exact same thing with Plumb and it turns out they've become one of my favorite bands. So I decided to put my feelings on the back-burner and give The Collection a chance. While the lyrics are as outright religious as you can get, I don't mind. Jennifer has a powerful voice that could move even the most emotionally defunct person alive. I like the fact that she makes great usage of the acoustic guitar and even in some cases an orchestra. There's many influences quite apparant in her voice which any music buff can quickly point out, so it doesn't surprise me that she's so well liked.

A Little More shows a distinctive hint of Melissa Etheridge in not only Jennifer's voice but also that basic instrumentation. I like some of Etheridge's music, so I like this song. Undo Me, in all it's religious glory, is quite the catchy song. The music has so many different influences that it's sickening, it compliments the vocals nicely. Say Won't You Say has a very dreamy feel to it. Jennifer keeps her voice low-key and introspective which works beautifully. The Way I Am is in every way a classic. The lyrics are wonderful and Jennifer's voice is top notch. The chorus and bridge is where this song takes on epic proportions. It's been a while since I've heard strings used so expertly yet subtely and the full band feel is a nice touch. Whole Again is good yet shows weakness. The chorus feels like it's been done before, the only real redeeming quality to this song is the acoustics. Hold Me Now is the best ballad I've heard in months. The vulnerabilty is palpable and Jennifer's voice is on display like I've never heard it before. This song shows her range wonderfully and there's no doubt it'll touch a chord with you. Martyrs & Thieves, I've heard, is a fan favorite and I can understand why. Jennifer's voice is chillingly gorgeous and once again, there's great usage of strings and acoustics. When Nothing Satifies is a wonderful track that drips emotion. I like how it's very simple yet gets it's point across and once again, Jennifer's voice proves to be amazing.

My favorite songs on here are A Little More, The Way I Am, Hold Me Now, Martyrs & Thieves, and When Nothing Satifies. I wasn't lucky enough to find a copy of the limited edition version so I didn't get the second disc. But what I did get, I'm very impressed with. I'm glad I took a chance on this CD but if you're someone who just does not like hearing about God in your music, you better keep looking.

5 out of 5 stars Love Jennifer Knapp.......2005-11-06

I love her. I have been a fan from the very beginning. All the songs on this cd are her very best. I think my favorite one is Hold me now. I have loved that from the very first time that I heard it. I think I loved it so much because some part of me relates to the women in the song. She is one of the very best Christian artists out there today. I can't wait for her next cd to come out.

5 out of 5 stars RE: Is it all about the dollars?.......2005-08-26

This isn't really a review as such; I am new to Jennifer Knapp's music and maybe I'll be qualified to review after several more listens of this album of course ;) - translation: I like it, even the demos are fun to listen to, which is unusual for me, since I don't like demos. I remember reading something that said people used to gather around her even when all she had was a guitar - you can hear that coming through in these songs. Makes it feel like you're at a coffeehouse or an impromptu worship meeting listening to her sing. She was the artist whose music inspired Bethany Dillon to learn guitar, and now she is a musician as well [consider that a recommendation :)]

Rather, I wanted to respond to William Krischke's review. Jennifer Knapp has in fact quit the music business for the time being, and this was, as far as I know, her last album. She did not have much material for a new album, and she felt like if she continued it would have become about meeting expectations and the routine of releasing new albums every so often. She was not willing to keep on doing something if the Lord was not giving her inspiration anymore.

So please, do not be so harsh, and do not assume so much. Man looks at the outside, but God sees the heart - the same is true of me as well, I do not know where she is with the Lord and neither do you :)

I just recieved this cd and put it in my cd player, it's awesome!!! I have been looking for something that has a mellow worship sound without being to sleepy and this is definitely it. Up beat just enoough to keep it interesting while maintaining a spirit of worship and adoration of the father.

    I purchased this CD for my daughter that is a new mother in the USA. She asked me if there was a way to find this for her as she listened to this as a little girl back in the early 80s. She loved Charlotte Diamond. I was thrilled that I was able to find it. Thanks!! AMAZON

          Soultamer is a Cooperation Between a Group of Musicians Originated from the Dutch Punk Streetpunk Scene with the Intention to Inject the Current Scene with a Dose of Passion and Quality. The Power of Soultamer Definitely Lies Within the Combination of the Characteristic Vocals from Two Great Singers: Joost De Graaf (Discipline) and Victor Nefkens (Badlands). Victor Spent Two Years Writing Nine Songs Filled with Licks, Leads and Fine-tuned Melodies. He Created a Sound Somewhere Between Classic Rock and Punk and Managed to Come Across with a Fresh and Original Sounding Album!
