Michael W. Smith Artist Snapshot:

Even if he never played a note of music, Michael W. Smith would be an impressive figure. He's organized many ministries and youth organizations, and even started his own Acts Church, which is named for this Renaissance man's record label, Rocket Town. Did we happen to mention that he's also one of the most successful Christian pop artists ever? He started out in the early 1980s as a songwriter for the likes of Amy Grant and Bill Gaither, but before long he launched a high-profile solo career, snagging Grammy nominations left and right, and selling countless records. As if that wasn't enough, the guy's also a best-selling author. Smith apparently spends his life in search of something he cannot do, but he hasn't found it yet.

Beginning with "Do You Dream of Me," a tender duet between Michael W. Smith and his longtime friend and associate, Amy Grant, THE FIRST DECADE successfully hits the high points of the Christian pop singer/songwriter/keyboardist's initial decade of recordings. While devoted CCM fans may be most pleased with Smith's blatantly faith-based tunes (see the soaring "Great Is the Lord"), his pop-leaning numbers are equally, if not more, impressive in their ability to convey spiritual concerns in a more general way, as best revealed on his poignant crossover hit, "Place in This World."
