Reviews of Mickeys CDs...
Here are some reviews I found in newspapers or magazines. Some may be good or bad
----------------------------------------
Heres a review of Mickeys single, I never wanna let you down, which I found in The Ticket
-------------------------------------------
Mickey did us proud at Eurovision by not coming in last and here he proves theres more to him than doing a tribute to the Danish entry from two years ago. This catchy power ballad sounds tantalisingly like something youve heard before, maybe by The 4 of Us, but at least its a cut above Eurosong.
Rating: 2 out of 5

I found this review of Mickeys album 'Sometimes Right, Sometimes Wrong' in The Ticket.
------------------------------------------
How many songs has Mickey Harte written? Its in the hundreds threatens the nations crooner-elect in his sleeves notes. With considerable restraint, then, just six of them filter into his patchy debut, cautiously butressing Hartes singer-songwriter credibility with four covers. Blessed with Darius-like good looks, helped along with a Dari-esque rise to public attention and demonstrating a positively Darian fondness for self-penned, cliched luurve ballads (loves like you abounding, wishes generally coming true etc.) Harte is at least more humble. A charming Josh Ritter tune, opener Here at the Right Time, almost excuses the albums cloying over-production (aptfor the harmless title track, less so for an unctuous reading of Paul Bradys The Island, fatal for the Undertones Teenage Kicks), while his Donegal tones and acoustic heft leave that Eurovision entry sounding staggeringly incongruous. Quite intentional, Id suspect.
Rating: 2 out of 5

I FOUND THIS ALBUM REVIEW BY GOLDEN DISCS, AT LEAST THEY KNOW MICKEYS MUSIC IS WORTH LISTENIN TO!
Review: Mickey Harte
Review written by Golden Discs This is the debut album from Irelands Eurovision hero Mickey Harte. Unlike previous Eurovision hopefuls, Mickey Harte is a singer that has a past in music, he began life with a band called The Kryptic in which he came runner up in a joint RTE/BBC talent show. At twenty five he went solo and never looked back, signing to Sony Music he released his first solo album Sometimes Right, Sometimes Wrong.Mickey Hartes debut exceeds expectations, you may be expecting an album that contains one hit, namely his Eurovision song Weve Got The World Tonight but all credit to Mickey this is an album that steps above his Eurovision single to revel an album with far more depth.Mickey recorded his debut album in the UK in April with record producer Jon Kelly (Kate Bush, The Beautiful South, Deacon Blue, Tori Amos). The album contains seven original tracks from Mickey and four covers, and it has to be said Mickeys own stuff is far more impressive. Its not that easy to label this album it combines elements of pop, rock and folk divided across the various songs, definite highlights on the album include the two singles released along with songs Sometimes Right, Sometimes Wrong and There Must Be Love.Mickey Hartes first stab at recording a solo album is an admirable one, this is an album that deserves much credit, from start to finish you can appreciate what hes trying to accomplish, granted there are some tracks that sound quite raw but you gotta take the good with the bad and there are some real gems here.
