The album is packed with fifteen songs, enough for over one hour music. We tumble into the album with Watch Your Step, a sizzling tune with a great piano line, propelling shuffle beat and a broad horn support. Easy Does It appeals with an attractive melody, the first approach to the imaginary island of dreams.

Once In A Lifetime is a good place for Chris Geith expansive piano journey. Avoid to listen to Coastal Daydreaming, when you are driving your car. Caught by this song you could easily crash. Chris Geith shines on the romantic ballade The Mirror Of Happiness. If you love the music of Richard Clayderman, Jim Brickman and David Foster, this is something for you.

On Diamonds In The Sky Matt Marshak shares Chris' melody path on acoustic and electric guitar in an elegant flow. Only The Heart Knows is the music, which touch your heart. Chris Geith comments: “I always imagine ‘playing live’ when I write. I like to picture the reaction of the audience when the music becomes more and more intense.”

The uplifting Flying West will perfectly accompany your next journey. Taste some flavor of Pet Shop Boys Suburbia's piano line. Above The Clouds, where the freedom is without any limits, there you will find this stirring melody. Get this Bossa Nova swing and listen to Island Of A Thousand Dreams. Chris Geith piano playing is grisp and clean.

The heartfelt ballade When Morning Comes featuring Fred Scerbo on sax enlightens mind and soul. The up-tempo Tomorrow's Promise showcases more of Chris Geith's polished piano performance. His sense for catchy melodies is incredible. With reverb and verve Blue Horizons opens a wide space of sound.

Eternal Spring is based on an Urban beat, while the melody stays in the solid smooth jazz ground. With the contemplative Yesterday's Goodbye closes Chris Geith the great range of awesome melodies.
