All is Well

[Pamela]

My copies of All is Well came today, and I think this is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard.

I read posts on different forums about people being breathless, becoming misty, etc. and I always smile because ...pfft.  In concert, sure.  But driving down I40 at 70 mph? 

Well....yeah. 

It should be in your local Walmarts tomorrow, so get it while you can. Because it's limited, and exclusive, and when it's gone, I'm afraid it will be gone.

And that's just sad. Because it's breathtaking.  I love it.  And everyone in the world should hear it. And I'm not even a "Christmas" person!

Pamela:

From the reports I'm hearing I can NOT wait until I get my copies in the mail.

I'm crossing my fingers that they're in my mailbox tonight when I get home.

To me now, when Christmas starts to come around I think about Clay. The tours, MCWL, and now this EP.

I'm so beyond excited. I can't wait!

I GOT MINE TODAY ALSO.  I CANNOT WAIT TO PUT IT ON.  I HAVE HEARD All Is Well AND MGUCL SO FAR.  I SAID ON CRITICAL MASS THAT All Is Well IS THE MOST GORGEOUS THING I HAVE EVER HEARD.  IT FLOORED ME.

INTERESTING---IF YOU LOOK AT THE CREDITS, CW MUST HAVE BEEN RECORDED BEFORE BECAUSE JACOB IS LISTED AS A BACKUP SINGER AND THE MUSICIANS ARE DIFFERENT THAN THE OTHER 3.  (JILL POINTED IT OUT TO ME THAT IT MUST BE FROM 2004.)  I LOVE READING CLAY AS EXECUTIVE PRODUCER.  LOVE IT.

Reading everyone's review, I know I must get it.  Is it avaible only at Wal Mart?  I checked the Wal Mart to see if it can be downloaded, but nothing.

I was listening to All Is Well with ClayObsessed (over the phone, of course). We agreed that if Clay doesn't win some sort of award for the song "All Is Well", there is no justice in the world. I don't know if I like the part at the beginning where his voice is low, or the Glory note at the end the best! 

Sunflower 101 - the EP could be ordered at Walmart.com for a short time - but no longer. It should be in the Walmart stores tomorrow 11/28/06, though.

I'm a complete and total puddle of mush right now.

That's all I have to say. I'm on my 4th listen of just the song All Is Well.....that deepness, that glory note.

I'm almost in tears.... I just love this man so damned much.

My CD was in the mail and I am enthralled with it!

I don't want to sound dramatic, but this CD is more than I could have ever imagined!

The title song captures the very very best of Clay's voice.  That awesome voice!  He should own the airwaves this holiday season!

We aren't prejudiced, he is THAT GOOD ! 

[Pamela]

It's OK to be dramatic; it's fun after all! 

It is a beautiful thing after all, and we have the right to   and *gish* and *droolswoonthud* over the joyful sounds on that CD!

Clay is the voice of Christmas present, IMHO.

So go for it Barb....!

Is All Is Well an original of Clay's ? I don't ever remember hearing it before .I will call Walmart tomorrow here in Montreal and see if they have it. Thanks for the info. ladies.

[fhmmany2]

I don't remember ever hearing All Is Well before, but the liner notes say that it was written in the 1980s! Although I did pre-order 2, I plan to buy others if I see them at my Walmart today - if they are not in Canada (or if someone does not have a Walmart near) I hope to have a couple of extra if anyone needs one. Good luck finding the EP, everybody!

[Tammy]

Good luck to everyone who hasn't gotten the CD yet.. I'm going to get mine and a few others some after work today.. I hope i find them..

Is All Is Well an original of Clay's ? I don't ever remember hearing it before.

All Is Well is a Michael W. Smith original song.  Michael wrote the music and the lyrics are by Wayne Kirkpatrick.

I GOT MY COPIES AT WAL*MART THIS MORNING I LISTENED TO IT ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK. I LIKED THE LOW NOTES AT THE BEGINNING OF "ALL IS WELL" AND I'VE ALWAYS LIKED THE "CHRISTMAS WALTZ" SONG AS WELL. IT LISTS THE SAME PRODUCER THAT WAS ALSO LISTED ON MCWL...SO I AM ASSUMING "CHRISTMAS WALTZ" IS FROM 2004 AND WAS CUT FROM MCWL. I IMAGINE SINCE THIS IS AN E/P SINGLE, IT'LL STILL BE CONSIDERED AS A "SINGLE" AND CHART IN THE APPROPRIATE PLACES. IT BEING EXCLUSIVE TO WAL*MART, THAT SHUTS OUT AMAZON AND OTHER ON-LINE STORES SO WE WILL SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

ON THE BACK OF THE COVER IT SAYS:

MANAGEMENT: STRATEGIC ARTIST MANAGEMENT.

I DON'T KNOW IF THERE IS ANY SIGNIFIGANCE TO THAT OR NOT

[GWENN]

AC--THAT IS SIMON RENSHAW'S FIRM.  NOTHING NEW THERE.

Dear whomever distributes Clay's CDs in Raleigh and the surrounding areas,

Sincerely,



PS - Toldja it was beauteous.

[LOVE CLAY]

I'M SO EXCITED, AND I WANTED TO SHARE WITH YOU MY  EXPIERIENCE WHEN I WENT TO BUY ALL IS WELL IN WILMINGTON NC. WHEN I WALKED OVER TO THE CD SECTION THERE WERE THREE MEN, TWO IN SUITS  STANDING IN  FRONT OF CLAY'S CD. I PICKED UP TWO, AND ONE OF THE WALMART MEN SAID, HERE COMES ANOTHER TO BUY CLAY AIKEN'S CD. HE THEN TOLD ME THERE WERE ONLY TWO MORE LEFT. SO I PICKED UP THOSE AS WELL, AND TOLD HIM HE HAD BETTER ORDER MORE. HE PICKED UP HIS CELL PHONE AND CALLED HIS HOME OFFICE TO ORDER MORE. HE WAS TOLD THEY WERE ALL SOLD OUT!!!!!!!!I MENTIONED TO HIM THE NEXT CD CLAY COMES OUT WITH, TO MAKE SURE THEY HAVE MORE TO OFFER, AS WALMART HAS BEEN THE PLACE MENTIONED ON THE INTERNET FOR PURCHASES. I HAVE TICKETS TO SEE CLAY IN GREENSBORO, AND ALL IS WELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE TO ALL OF YOU.

Hello,

I bought my All Is Well today at the Walmart nearest me, and I do have some extras.  I have not had a chance to listen to it, but I will in the next few minutes.  Can't wait!

Hugs,
Prissy
