This giveaway has ended. Congrats to Jennifer Stewart the winner:-)
Don’t you just love Harry Connick Jr.?? Or is it just me? I remember when he married that Victoria’s Secret model, my dreams were shattered. I guess he didn’t get the memo that he was supposed to marry me! ha! Okay, so when I found out I was getting to review his new album, Your Songs, I got just a bit excited:-)
Let me tell you about the album, then you’ll have a chance to win one of your own!
Basically, it’s Harry’s smooth, jazzy vocals and a wonderful big band and string orchestra performing classic hits. You might have seen him on Oprah last week. If you catch the View today, he’ll be on!
It’s a very mellow album and great music for a party or just singing along with the kids. I can’t get “The Way You Look Tonight” and “Close to You” out of my head now.
This behind the scene look at ‘Making of’ the album will give you a sample of the songs. You can also become a Harry Connick Jr. fan on Facebook.

I Heart Faces
Oh my goodness. I was devastated when he went from big band to funk – I had dreams of playing in his band! My favorite song of his is and ever will be Just Kiss Me, though there are countless that would fight for second place.
I just watched Harry on Oprah and fell even more in love with the guy- he was so sweet and genuine and talking about his relationship with his wife and kids. I love ‘em all, but especially Just The Way You Are.

I love Harry! I’ve seen him in concert three times and he puts on such a fabulous show. I’m excited to hear Harry sing in Spanish, so I’m looking forward to hearing Besame Mucho.
“First Time Ever I Saw Your Face”… gets me every time I hear it! Thanks for the chance at winning.
I’ve loved Harry for so many years! When Harry Met Sally? Absolutely fell in love with him!! I have purchased every single album and have seen him in concert when he performed at SMU in 2001! The man can SING!!! And it doesn’t hurt that he’s also handsome… I will be listening to the newest album as soon as I can get my hands on it!
Billy Joel’s “I Love You Just the Way You Are” is AMAZING when Harry sings it! It absolutely melts my heart. My (almost 3 year old) son loves Harry too! Hearing him sing along always makes me smile.
I love Harry’s music…not so much his acting…but his music is great. I had a roommate in college who was obsessed with him, so, thanks to Jill, I’m also a lover.

I really love his voice because it is so smooth and yummy to listen to. As for the song I love most on this album…(They Long To Be) Close To You got stuck in my head the instant I read it on the list and I don’t mind a bit.

And I love you So—is one of my favorite songs! I remember When Harry Met Sally!
