Janelle – What I Gotta Say – Catholic CD Review
By Susan Bailey • May 13th, 2009 • Category: Columnists, Susan Bailey
This new release from Canadian Janelle from Alberta is a terrific rock/pop recording. With great melodic hooks and lyrics celebrating the true beauty within every individual’s soul, Janelle’s third recording is her best. “Overall, I feel like this CD really is the best of me and what God has so generously done in my heart throughout this season in my life”, explains Janelle, who is now a mother of three children. For the first time, Janelle shares significant songwriting credits and this is a good thing. “This album shows the beauty of my mission as wife and mother, but also of learning and growing to be a virtuous woman of God.” What a great recording and what a great role model. Highly recommended. Go to www.Janelle.cc to grab this CD.
