Nice to see from the flyers that the complete collection of Hayley CD's is a Massive 6 CD's. If so how come many of us have 10+ unique CD's. This just makes me laugh a little Dean p.s I recall a Odyssey Version just entitled "Hayley Westenra" but I can't remember where it was released.

Hi Dean and everyone p.s I recall a Odyssey Version just entitled "Hayley Westenra" but I can't remember where it was released. A common misconception. Despite the fact that it had the same pictures front and back and an identical coloured CD inside, it was not a version of Odyssey. It was an Australian release (13th May 2006) about one month after the UK version of Odyssey and was a combination of tracks from Pure and Odyssey. The logic behind its release eludes me to this day! Still bought a copy though Best wishes Grant

Why do they call the duet "exclusive"? This is not the only version it appears on.

I spotted that! I think it is Amazon got it wrong (again).
BTW I have been watching TV tonight, and have not seen any adverts for WM. Faryl's album, yes! I could have miseed something, I can't watch all of the channels all of the time, but is Hayley being starved of promotion yet again!!!

Well, I got the US version Friday! The only negative comment I have is that I listened to Jillian's sample track video so many times none of the songs felt new!
Great album. Very much a 'winter' album, not so much a 'Christmas' one I felt. I'm looking forward to hearing her next album!

Hi Nordly! Glad you were able to get this album. Yesterday I've been to Wal-Mart, Target, Best Buy, and Borders. Not a trace of this CD to be found anywhere How disappointing! Joe

Aaarghh!
No Winter Magic in my letter box this morning! Come on HMV and Royal Mail!
I need to do some essay writing and I was planning on using Winter Magic to get me motivated!

Phew! Panic over! My housemate checked 30 minutes after I did and the album was sitting there in the letter box. I am loving this album so much already! I will definitely work some of the songs out in the next couple of weeks. I'm loving the slight jazzy feel to the guitar part on 'Sleigh Ride'. Hayley's vocals are hauntingly beautiful as always.... I am one happy person today Cheers, Ben

Just had a look at the ITV schedule for morning tv this week and whilst there are appearances by both Faryl Smith and Rhydian to promote their new albums I saw no mention of Hayley. Martin

I received my copy this afternoon. I have played it through once. I have now put it on for a second play. 1 st. impressions I loved every track and could not yet pick a favorite but there is certainly not a poor one.

I am in awe of the stamina that Hayley has to sing 'Carol Of The Bells'. It certainly requires a lot of air! Cheers, Ben

Hi folks Just out of interest, the UK iTunes have 2 versions of Winter Magic available. They are both exactly the same in terms of songs, but 1 has a digital booklet. I have given both a five star rating anyway! By the way, Faryl is number one on iTunes' classical chart, and Camilla's deluxe version is at number 2! Winter Magic isn't on there yet. 'Pure' is at number 25. Cheers, Ben P.S Oh and by the way folks, when you load songs onto iTunes, the CD's sometimes have the song names already pre-loaded so you don't have to manually type them in. Winter Magic has them pre-loaded, but the pre-loaded album name is 'Christmas Magic'!

Hi all, No sign of mine even being posted by Tesco.com.They must be waiting for the special edition with Hayley dueting with Cliff Richard on "Were all going on a summer holiday".
