Your comments about this record:

All I can say Alfie is - it's about time! From one of Canada's most charismatic performers and uniquely intelligent storytellers comes this much-awaited new effort - Start Again. This wonderfully diverse collection of new (and a few classic) songs really showcases Alfie's musical maturity. The title track is about "not giving up or being afraid of change, which can be scary," says Zappacosta. "The emotional part of that message is timeless and universal." My favorite is "Tears of Hercules", written by Marc Jordan and Stephan Mocchio and featuring the gorgeous piano of Glenn Morley. And, for the first time in his career, Alfie sings in his native Italian on "Tu Si Na Cosa Grande" (You Are My Life). I've been a huge AZ fan since 1995's "Innocence Ballet". Now all I can say is Alfie - thank you! Please start again on your next project!


When I first heard this, I thought that that's what Alfie should have done! Started over! I fell in love with Alfie from his Innocence Ballet album, and at first was disappointed with this collection. His beautiful romantic,seductive,blend and captivating voice,from "Ballet" were not featured in these tracks. I thought it to be a rather "Dark" side that came off as depressing. After listening to it a few more times, I'm hooked again!!! I have to applaud him for giving us a different look at his vocal talent. A very talented singer, and if you give this one a chance, I'm sure you'll appreciate the different side this is offering. Very dramatic, almost theatrical, but very pleasing. Sorry I expected something different in the beginning, and didn't give it a fair chance. I sill adore Alfie!
