All That Matters

Michael Bolton

Polished 1997 pop-soul where raspy rock grit meets smooth R&B production. A collection of high-stakes romantic ballads built for big emotional payoffs.

It's the ultimate 90s 'feel-good' cry, with enough soul and R&B polish to keep it from feeling dated.

A deeply earnest and polished collection of romantic devotions that balances vulnerability with powerful vocal triumphs.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The triumphant, orchestral lift of the final chorus in Go the Distance where the rasp reaches its peak intensity.
The smooth, rhythmic R&B pocket of Fallin' where the Babyface production influence creates a subtle, soulful groove.
The intimate, piano-led opening of When There Are No Words that showcases a rare, restrained vulnerability.
