【Ronan】:称霸英国金榜的个人首张单飞大碟,收录电影"新娘百分百"主题曲"When You Say Nothing At All" 从Boyzone/男孩特区合唱团到个人单飞歌唱生涯至今,罗南发行过6张个人专辑,其中4张空降英国金榜冠军,他也是金氏世界纪录史上唯一一位连续创造30首英国金榜Top10单曲的艺人,历年的全球专辑销售至今已超过2200万张;他同时坐拥Ivor Novello奖与BMI的词曲创作大奖,罗南在2008年重新带领Boyzone展开巡回演唱行程,写下29场爆满演出的盛况。 【Ronan 同名专辑】:在决定单飞之前,罗南为电影"新娘百分百"演唱了单曲"When You Say Nothing At All",这首歌曲首度以他的个人名义发行,不仅成功拿下英国金榜冠军,更第一次让大家见识到他扎实的演唱实力。后来,该曲收录在他的首张个人专辑,这张于2000年发行的专辑就以他的名字为名--【Ronan】,开宗明义的向世人昭告:罗南正式踏上专属于自己的音乐旅程了。这张同名专辑还造就了另一支英国金榜冠军畅销曲"Life Is A Rollercoaster",其中还收录加拿大抒情摇滚王子布莱恩亚当斯特别为罗南量身订做的"The Way You Make Me Feel"。 Unanimously, the most popular singer from the Irish group Boyzone is lead singer Ronan Keating whose debut solo album is aptly titled Ronan. The album retains some of Boyzone's style, though it is appropriately, if not determinedly, subdued. That is a bit of a shock for a debut. Keeping in mind that Gary Barlow tried the same thing and missed the target, while Robbie Williams went all out with an egocentric rock album and became a British landmark, one would have expected a little more oomph. Ronan must not be caught up in trends. Besides, the album seems to fit his personality, which is quieter and modest compared to most boy group members. The album sports the number one European singles "When You Say Nothing at All" and "Life Is a Rollercoaster," which helped propel the album to the top of the charts for a short while. Indeed, it did not stand out as one of the great musical triumphs of the year, but it is not without charm, thanks to its sincerity. Bryan Adams provides the soft ballad "The Way You Make Me Feel," while Rick Nowels conjures up another spirituality-driven effort on "Heal Me," as well as a slightly more exciting "Rollercoaster." "If I Don't Tell You Now" is a Dianne Warren-penned ballad, drippy and undistinguished, which is sadly how most of her songs are beginning to come across. Patrick Leonard co-wrote "Believe" and "Keep on Walking," both of which are unremarkable but enjoyable. "In This Life" makes another appearance (previously recorded by Bette Midler and Kathie Lee Gifford). For an album as seeping with heartfelt ballads as Ronan is, it is amazing that so many known artists came together with tunes that are so alike they sound monotonous. It really takes a few listens to bond to "Ronan," because it is so slow. It is slow but it is also soft and tender. At certain moments it is exceptionally emotional. The splendid song "Brighter Days" is one of those moments.
