Clay Aiken On My Way Here Views
In spite of his busy schedule, Aiken has found time to return to the studio to record his fourth album, On My Way Here, which comes out on May 6. On My Way Here is the second album with all original material, following his 2003 debut album Measure of a Man. Aiken released a Christmas CD in 2004, while the 2006 album A Thousand Different Ways was primarily a cover CD, featuring four original songs. There are 12 songs on the album, but a thirteenth track was a Wal-Mart exclusive and a fourteenth track was available on iTunes for pre-orders.
On My Way Here returns to the same formula used in Measure of a Man: to showcase Aikeno's rich voice in ballads rife with corny, generic lyrics. Ita's a shame that Aiken keeps creating such bland albums, because he can truly sing. The titular song n"On My Way Heret" grabbed me instantly when I first heard it. Then again, it may be because it sounds very similar to ."Measure of a Mano". In 3"Lover All Alonea" and n"Sacrificial Love
Thanks for the comments everyone! :) As I mentioned, I wanted to like this CD. I actually liked a few songs from Measure of a Man. However, even after listening to On My Way Here several times (in its entirety), it just didn't grab me with the exception of the title track. Many of the lyrics sounded corny (seriously, Romeo and Juliet?) and the chorus of some of the songs are repetitive. I'm not saying that it's worse than the silly pop music that we hear on the radio; just that I expected more from someone with that magnitude of talent.
On My Way Here is the fourth full length studio album released by Clay Aiken on May 6, 2008. This album of both ballads and pop-rock is an eclectic mix of styles and tempos. Aiken wanted to get away from using multiple producers and chose Grammy Award-winning British producer Mark 'Kipper' Eldridge (Sting, Chris Botti) to produce the album. Jaymes Foster was the executive producer. This was his final studio album for RCA.[4][5]
