Amazon.com’s Best of 2001
Even though he has a long independent release history, Bebo Norman is quickly establishing himself in the larger Christian music arena as a songwriter extraordinaire. In his latest, Big Blue Sky, Norman writes and sings of a God never more alive and ever-present than in the rich lyrical imagery this burgeoning talent presents. In the catchy opener, “I Am,” we’re reassured that the Creator is “in the center of your storm / I am in the fire / I am in the flood /… More >>

This was the first album I heard by Bebo so I’m a little biased to it. Other reviewers stated that they liked the more folky, stripped-down music of his prior albums, but I prefer the more fleshed out ones here. Big Blue Sky reeks of an artist coming into his own. Buy it you little freaks!

I’ve been listening to this CD for 5 yrs know and it’s simply perfect. Consistent from beginning to end with solid lyrics, emotional vocals and an open, singer/songwriter pop sound that makes you want to listen again and again but won’t rot your teeth. Sincere and confident delivery from an artist that needs to be an “A” list CBA artist—sales talk—buy this CD! The best in his library (and I’m a fan–got em all)

Usually when musicians have an amazing first album such as Bebo did with “Ten Thousand Days,” it’s hard to follow it up with another one up to par. Bebo however does not have this problem. “Big Blue Sky” is great CD with some really great songs on it. My personal favorites are “Cover Me”,”Underneath”, “Tip of My Heart” and “All That I Have Sown.” This CD encompasses many different styles of music. Bebo brings it all together with his awesome lyrics and melodies. I can’t wait to see what he comes up with next.

Bebo Norman is one in a million. He writes simple, yet wonderful songs AND lyrics, and his voice and guitar underlines the message in an honest and profound way. Even an ateist has to love his music! Get this guy out to all the world – please!! He should be in any record-shop, at any radiostation.. I’m sorry to say that it’s not possible to get hold of any of his three records in Norway – but.. Amazon’s got this one. Ten thousand days, his first record, deserves a much much bigger audience too!
Big blue sky doesn’t have one single half-good track, they are all good! “I am”, “Cover me” and the beautiful “Where you are” are the highlights on an album full of highlights:)
