CD Review: Forever Yours

Covenant Communications’s new CD, Forever Yours, features love songs from thirteen different LDS artists, and makes for a great Valentine’s Day purchase. The CD, boasting to “Say ‘I love you’ fifteen different ways,” lives up to its claims, offering a little something for everyone.

With fifteen tracks, Forever Yours features a variety of musical genres and styles that pay equal attention to love in all its happy stages. The first six tracks are peppy and carefree, with a “windows down, summer drive, pure fun” kind of feeling. Tracks seven through eleven address romance more seriously and intimately. The final four tracks on the CD round out our romantic evolution with four narrative songs, many of which allude to love’s “bigger picture.”

Some artists on the CD sound remarkably similar to certain big names in the music industry, while others have their own unique sounds. Regardless of sound or style, the talent is undeniable across the board.

Personal favorites include Debra Fotheringham’s classy “You are Truth;” Joshua Creek’s genuine “I Saw It All;” and above all, Alex Boyé’s “Happy Daze” — which alone merits the CD’s purchase.

As with any CD, not all tracks are created equal, but Forever Yours provides a nice balance, and “whether you are looking for the perfect Valentine’s Day gift or something to warm a heart,” you’re likely to find a track on Forever Yours that both suits your personal style and brings a smile to your face.
