Movin On 2. Wait For You （推荐单曲） 3. Find a Way 4. One Word 5. You Are the One （推荐单曲） 6. I'm the Man （推荐单曲） 7. Trainwreck 8. Free 9. Alright 10. Take My Breath Away 11. A Song For You （推荐单曲） [唱片点评] Elliott Yamin是2006年度第五季“美国偶像”大赛的季军，这张《Elliott Yamin》是他的首张个人专辑。在美国发行首周，本张专辑共售出九万张，获得了本周Billboard 200专辑榜的季军。在2006年的“美国偶像”参赛选手中，Elliott Yamin成为继冠军泰勒·希克斯(Taylor Hicks)，亚军凯瑟琳·麦克菲(Katharine McPhee)，克里斯·多特里(Chris Daughtry)和凯丽·皮克勒(Kellie Pickler)之后，第五位有个人专辑打入Billboard 200专辑榜的歌手。 虽然在去年的美国偶像大赛中最终只是获得了季军，但Elliott Yamin的人气并不亚于夺冠的“白头翁”Taylor Hicks和亚军Katharine McPhee。如果说Taylor Hicks是2006年的美国偶像中的一位更会作秀的专业歌手的话，那么Elliott Yamin就是一位给人亲切感十足的邻家男孩。在第五季“美国偶像”大赛中，Elliott Yamin属于那种观众从头支持到尾的歌手，人气一直很高。的确，他的歌唱才华是显而易见的，不仅拥有出色的唱功，而且与相当一部分的“偶像”相比，Elliott Yamin上台表演时的感情也显得更加真挚，这一点是偶像大赛产出的歌手比较难得的。 Elliott Yamin在成长过程中受到唐尼·哈萨维(Donny Hathaway)和史蒂夫·旺德(Stevie Wonder)两人音乐的影响比较大，从他这张《Elliott Yamin》中我们也可以看到这两个杰出的R&B老将的影子，其中的《Wait For You》，《You Are the One》，《I'm the Man》和翻唱利昂·拉塞尔(Leon Russell)的《A Song For You》都是不错的R&B情歌。但从整体来看，这张《Elliott Yamin》制作的过于保守，专辑中体现出来的似乎都是歌迷们在去年的美国偶像比赛中已经看到过的东西，四平八稳的没有任何惊喜。不过，总的来说，这张《Elliott Yamin》在“美国偶像”所发行的专辑中来说已经算是不错的了。

个人重点推荐1.movin' on曲风欢快悦耳 加上Elliott独特的质感嗓音 使得这首歌节奏感很强 比较耐听 很适合跳舞2.Wait For You专辑中流传度最广的一首歌曲，很好听而且很容易学，旋律很棒。3.One Word 又是一首完美音色加完美旋律的组合，值得收藏。歌词寓意也不错。4.I'm the Man 目前最喜欢的一首，几个转音非常漂亮。

5.free 其实刚开始不是很喜欢这首歌 但慢慢停下来 这首歌还是很耐听的 高潮部分眼前出现了一片广阔的空间 真的有自由的感觉6.A Song For You Elliott在比赛时的经典曲目 收到专辑里后 更是突出了Elliott强悍的声线 整个心里被寂寞和守候的滋味所充斥 是Elliott最感动人的歌曲之一

7.believe 差点忘了大爱believe 励志歌曲 非常好听 值得推荐
