Throughout the 1990s, Kenny G was the whipping boy of the jazz world -- the instrumentalist who hardcore jazz improvisers loved to bash when the subject of smooth jazz came up. Kenny G's huge following responded that the attacks were silly and misguided because the saxman was the first to admit that he was primarily a pop instrumentalist and wasn't pretending to be anything else. True, it was silly for jazz artists to judge Kenny by hard bop standards when hard bop (or even soul-jazz or fusion) was a long way from what he was going for. And Breathless isn't bad because it's a pop album or because it's commercial; it's bad because of its complete lack of soul, substance or creativity. There's nothing even remotely tasteful about interchangeable tunes like &Sentimental,& &Forever In Love& and &End of the Night,& all of which are about as bloodless and schlocky as it gets. Always sounding like he's on automatic pilot, Kenny takes no risks whatsoever and sees to it that one song is as shamelessly contrived as the next. Even the presence of the great R&B crooner Aaron Neville on &Even If My Heart Would Break& can't save this one-dimensional release. Whether you're into pop or jazz, Breathless is unlistenable.

- @方浩(演出预告：8月29日-1...)：听着肯尼基的萨克斯长大，导致现在听任何别人的萨克斯音色都不顺耳
- @路德·古利特(这家伙很聪明什么也没留下...)：《Breathless 摒息》是肯尼吉最热销的一张专辑。这张专辑由格莱美金牌制作人大卫福斯特、娃娃脸、La Reid、Walter Afanasieff等人亲自操刀制作。这是美国最重量级的制作班子。专辑中的首支单曲“Fovever in love”延续电影《伴你一生》主题配东缠绵悱恻的哀怨；《美女与野兽》主题曲在肯尼吉的诠释下，更散发成熟味道; 根据我国江苏民歌《茉莉花》改编的萨克斯金曲《Jasmine flower》温婉恬和，清隽舒展，茉莉花般清香馥郁。
- @深谷幽兰(静默如初 聆听美...)：
- @charleso：live是kenny g打开市场之作，而这张同时献给香港乐迷的brearhless才是他的巅峰之作。
- @heaven851102(heaven851102)：现在已经把磁带，CD和LP都买到了。。。心中最完美的专辑。用一张专辑，一件乐器诉说心事，抒发情感，礼赞生命，肯尼基实现了这件说来容易做来难的事情。
