Francis uses many languages to communicate his message. “Wake Up!” features only one piece in English. The rest are in Latin, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese. In each we hear a righteous man, confident with the masses, affable and yet authoritative in his delivery. There can be no doubt that his various messages — about environmentalism, faith, equality and compassion — are sincerely held and movingly delivered. His record, however, doesn’t come across so successfully, the report said. “Wake Up!” is a musical vehicle with two speeds. The first is an instrumental soundtrack for the pontiff’s spoken words. The other is a collection of songs, written about and recorded around more of his homilies. What they have in common, generally, is the accessibility and blandness of a waiting room. Most of the instruments, including the many cinematic cymbal rolls, are synthesized. This is probably because the project might not have had the budget for full orchestration. There have been other papal albums: 1979’s “Pope John Paul II Sings at the Festival of Sacrosong,” 1994’s “El Rosario del Papa” and 1999’s “Abba Pater.” The most recent (despite not featuring any Abba songs) sold the best but was hardly considered a hit.
