Careful What You Wish For

JC worked with singer/songwriter Jonatha Brooke in 2006; the results of their sessions include a song on his second solo album as well as "Beautiful Girl" - a song co-written by JC, which is the second track on Brooke's album Careful What You Wish For (released April 3, 2007 in the US).

CD Universe  
Starting out as a bluesy folk number, with simple guitar strums and an upfront, earnest vocal, the song changes gears a few minutes in and becomes a heavy-hitting, symphonic tangle of powerhouse guitars, sonic compression, and choral singing.

Gaffa (Denmark)  
Beautiful Girl shows that Brooke masters the balance between the sincere and the grandiose.

Chasez was Brooke’s inspiration (and supporting vocalist/songwriter) for the theatrical opener/title track and grandstanding anthem "Beautiful Girl."
