As proven by the mega-success of Clay Aiken's albums, the runner-up position on AMERICAN IDOL can afford opportunities just as--or even more--significant than those guaranteed by the first-place prize. With Season Three runner-up Diana DeGarmo's debut disc, RCA and label honcho Clive Davis take an Aiken-like approach, surrounding the big-voiced teen with a crack ensemble of veteran studio musicians and a set of songs that fall somewhere between teen-pop and adult-contemporary music. "All I Never Wanted" and "Dream, Dream, Dream" employ shimmering guitar parts reminiscent of U2's the Edge, but are backed by smooth, mid-tempo beats. "Go On and Cry" is a pop-perfect ballad (recalling Berlin's 1986 TOP GUN smash "Take My Breath Away") that allows DeGarmo to showcase the full range and power of her vocals. Throughout, the young Georgia native sings with clarity and authority, emphasizing a pure tone, while forgoing the unnecessary filigree present in many of her contemporaries' work.

    Blue Skies takes you on a journey through your childhood, from the very first childhood days and "Dreams" to those teenage years where you just "wished the world would spin faster"... takes you through the times we faced relationship problems in "Go On and Cry" and continues through struggling moods with "Till You Want Me" "Boy Like You" and "All I Never Wanted." Ending with the melancholy "Don't Cry Out Loud." Which DeGarmo soars in. Incredible voice range, and a pleasure to listen to. Definitely one of my favorites. Fantastic album.
