Damien, I've been listening to WWL all afternoon. So many wonderful songs that it's hard to pick favourites. The standouts for me have been 'Not Just For the Weekend', 'Alone' and 'I Still Miss Us' which I've had at least a week to listen to. Your versions of 'Songbird' and 'Danny Boy' are also amazing. I am leery of anyone singing a Fleetwood Mac song, especially this one, but as usual, you have taken a favourite song and made it yours. Usually when an artist covers a song I like, I always feel conflicted and I hear the other version in my head. I never do with you. I can enjoy both versions of the song. Thank you, Damien, for producing such a marvelous collection of songs that I know I will enjoy for a lifetime.  |

Damien, I have had a wonderful day listening to Where We Land! It is a fabulous collection of songs, and you should be very proud of your work! I am loving them all, though particularly drawn to Beautiful (I can imagine many brides being serenaded with this song over the next decade!!), All I Want Is You (so joyous, a real celebration of life and love), Not Just For The Weekend (so warm and heartfelt, a real man's tribute to his family),..... ok, I could just keep on going!! I also adore Songbird, and have loved it since I heard your live versions some months ago!!  I gave a copy of the CD to my mum today, and when she knew Danny Boy was on it - You should have seen her face!!! She said "I've waited all year to hear Damien sing this song!!!" as she rushed towards the CD player!!! Congratulations Damien, and when is the next album due?!?!?!  Tina  |

 well done mate. It is a pleasure to have it in my music collection. It has pride of place alongside The Winners Journey. I love all your original songs, prefer the concert version of Beautiful, but I will get used to this version. You have taken control of Songbird and it is the best version ever. Danny Boy  I played over the phone to my mum ;D It gets the great big  from me.

Damien... what can I say? Everyone has pretty much summed up how I feel about the album and this is one of those rare occasions where I find myself speechless. No amounts of words can really express my euphoria after hearing the album. Well done and thank you.
Already hanging around for next album.
Jenny xx

I am absolutely loving this album. I still have the same favourites from the first time I listened to it. All I Want is You, Alone, The Long Way Back and Shine Like the Sun. But in saying that, I adore Beautiful, I Still Miss Us and Not Just for the Weekend. They are all just beautiful. Too hard to pick a favourite.
Damien, this album is sheer brilliance. It's such an emotional collection of songs that I am sure each and every person that listens can relate to in some way.
STUNNING!!!!!!
*Swoon*
