Album Description

Four years since his last studio album, and following up on his highest charting radio single ever ("Personal Jesus", from Lest We Forget), Marilyn Manson returns with "Eat Me, Drink me". Art openings, soundtrack appearances, and personal circumstance have grabbed headlines for Manson in recent months, setting the stage for the release of Eat Me, Drink Me, which is unquestionably the artist's most personal statement yet. Always the provocateur, in what may be the ultimate subversion of the code of aggro-rock, the songs are immediately catchy - all jagged guitar hooks, anthemic choruses, with an overlying glam-rock sheen. Lyrically Manson has never been more riveting, seemingly having enough to draw from in his own life and from society at large to present a fresh, snarling vision.

l love Manson, but this disappoints.......2007-07-26

Listen............I love Manson's decadent, hedonistic, sometimes brutal music. But this.....disappoints. It's very understated, slow moving and has no Kick. No Punch. I will always support his output and listen to his material, but after many, many listenings, this album still bores me and makes me change the selection. Enough said. If u don't have any Manson, buy: "The Golden Age of Grotesque." Now THAT'S a Marilyn Manson tour-de-force!

Marilyn Manson is truly back........2007-07-26

After taking nearly four years off from making new music; he has returned with "EAT ME, DRINK ME". Eleven powerful rock songs with a purpose. You have slow ballads like "Just A Car Crash Away" and uptempo pieces like "The Red Carpet Grave" and "Are You the Rabbit?". You have classic Manson in "Mutilation Is the Most Sincere Form of Flattery." And finally new Manson in "Putting Holes in Happiness" and "They Said That Hell's Not Hot". An amazing album that needs to be in every rock 'n roll fan's collection.

It grew on me........2007-07-25

As a longtime MM fan, I wasn't overly impressed with this album when I first heard it. I bought it for an eight hour road trip, listened to it for pretty much the whole way, and decided it was ok - not fantastic, not awful. Then, a few days passed without me listening to it and I popped it in the cd player again...and really liked it! I've been listening to it since and enjoying it more and more with each listen. True, it's not MM's best album ever (to me, Mechanical Animals & Golden Age of Grotesque are tied for best MM albums), but it is good and it gets better with each listen.

Oh, I should mention that the lyrics are awful (same old, same old, just less clever/creative and perhaps more tired), but I for one don't listen to MM for the lyrics.

If you are a fan, I think this is worth buying.

AWFUL!.......2007-07-22

Shoulda never duped "Your God" "Trent" your music is getting worse with each cd. Terrible!

By Far His Worst Album.......2007-07-20

I have been a fan of MM since '98 and I have to say that this album is a real let down. Almost every single song has a long guitar solo at almost the exact place every time, and some songs even sound similar to another before it! Out of the entire album, only about two or three songs really stood out as ok, nothing really blew me away.

I'll give him points for his style change, which sounds like a record from the 70s, sadly however, most of the songs are just boring. I have liked all of his past records, Mechanical Animals is what made me a fan, but I just didn't care for "Eat Me, Drink Me" at all. Hopefully, the next CD will be better

It's good, but! .......2007-05-12

As with all greatest hits packages theirs a lot of the radio friendly stuff and not enough of the really good stuff. Heart are a great band period. Their early stuff is simply fantastic and truly stands the test of time. The reinvented 80's heart was also very good, even if it's not quite as good as the early releases were. Their latest release, Jupiter's Child was a back to the basics what got us noticed in the first place release and it was another gem.

Ann and Nancy and supporting cast should be very proud of what they've accomplished in their careers. They have given us some true classics to look back on with fond memories and they have given us some newer releases that are every bit as good and even fresh sounding in a world of corporate crap.

I really wish Heart would go back and re-master all their releases and give us the listener a Sabbath style Black Box release and that would truly be a greatest hits package.

This collection of tunes is very good, but any true heart fan will be disappointed as it's just missing to much good stuff!!

I give it a 4 because it's Heart and because it rocks from start to finish, but I want more!!!!!

The Best Best of Heart.......2007-01-12

This compilation from the Capitol Epic label is the best available over- view of the female operated hard rock band Heart. It has all the great songs from their early, middle and late periods. The early period features hard rock with incredible guitar performances, the middle period (after their lead guitarist was fired for drug burn-out) features fine rock arrangements and great songs. The late period has beautiful arrangements of beautiful songs beautifully sung. For someone wanting to find out what Heart is all about, this is the double CD to buy. My only beefs are the few live performances here are not their best and you only get the reprise of "Dreamboat Annie," one of their best songs.

SONY MUSIC producing defective HEART cds.......2006-12-09

I bought the "Essential Heart" cd from Tower Rercords this weekend.
I just tried listening to it but Track #17 SKIPS and shuts down my media player.

The store (TOWER) is closing down & they refuse to even EXCHANGE IT!
They told me to contact the ones who release this album. All the info. & links on the back of the cd are no longer valid. I went to SonyMusic and even their links to this cd are defunct. I was able to find [...]which links back to SonyMusic - but when I call the two "QUALITY MANAGMENT" phone numbers they have, both are defunct and refer me back to the store I bought it from.

I am extremely angry and want my $15 back! No wonder Tower is going out of business with such bad customer service. All I'm going to be more careful before I buy a Sony/CapitolRecords cd!

Great, but it's missing a few songs........2006-11-10

I would have given this compilation a 5-star review except that there were four great songs that were ommited: 1. "Strong, Strong Wind" 2. "Surrender to Me" 3. "Tall, Dark, Handsome Stranger" 4. "Back to Avalon". Other than that, this is a wonderful 2-CD package from an awesome group.

Critics have always been singularly unkind to Jimmy Buffett. Or at least they have since the singer became immune to their jabs, commanding a nation of Parrotheads who sell out his shows, snap up his records and books, and eat and drink in his nightclubs in Key West and New Orleans. By now, you've made up your mind as well: To paraphrase Buffett himself from his song "Volcano," you either lava him now, or you lava him not. Songs You Know by Heart is a friendly little best-of collection that features concert perennials such as "Margaritaville," "Fins," "Cheeseburger in Paradise," and the immutable "Why Don't We Get Drunk." If by some chance you've not yet been introduced to Buffett's music, this album is the best way to say hello. --Daniel Durchholz

Jimmy Buffett.......2007-07-19

Whats too say about Jimmy Buffett...he's one of the best! Parrotheads will love this CD...

If you only could have one Jimmy Buffet CD this is it!.......2007-06-11

All the best songs, a must have if you don't have any Jimmy yet. And a great addition to your existing Jimmy collection, and a great spare with all the great songs for the car CD, and what would Jimmy do? You guessed it! Go for it, you will not be disappointed because there is no bad Jimmy Buffet songs.

This is the one that hooks you.......2007-03-24

I've been listening to Jimmy for quite a few years. A friend recommended I get this album, and after that, I had to have everything else. If you've read my reviews, you know I've been rough on Jimmy's incessant string of repetitive live albums. This is the good stuff- All the songs are pulled from Jimmy's (non-Barnaby) albums up to but not including Coconut Telegraph. It skips the album Havana Daydreamin' entirely. I agree with other reviewers that the song selection leaves out a plethora of great Buffett tunes, but you'll find them eventually. This is a sampling of the artist in his prime, and if you like it, it's safe to say you'll enjoy the larger body of his work. If you don't like it, none of his other work is going to do it for you. I always thought Jimmy would come through with a greatest hits vol.2, or at least a double cd encompassing his larger body of work. That's what "Meet Me in Margaritaville" was supposed to be, but that collection just isn't coherent and definitive as Songs You Know By Heart. After becoming a hard-core fan, I have to say that this collection is really going to be the pinnacle of his compilation albums. So, if you're interested in trying out the works of Jimmy Buffett, start here. I'll bet you won't be disappointed. This stuff is solid gold. Thank you for reading my review!(note to Jimmy- why not consider putting the title track to "havana daydreamin'" on this as a bonus track for future pressings of the cd? It's a heck of a song, and it's from the era. It would fit right in.)

Parrotheads Unite!.......2007-01-13

Truly songs we all know by heart. Great music - hard to pick a song that doesn't go well with a Corona or Margarita, and hard to pick a song since that he's done that would push one of these off the CD. The song vividly captures the spirit of Margaritaville - we are turning into the people our parents warned us about, or so we would like to believe.

Perfect recipe for summer.......2006-10-07

Step one: buy this cd
Step two: buy new blender
Step three: buy lots of rum and fruit mixes
Step four: mix the rum and fruit
Step five: pour the mixture into a glass
Step six: put on the cd
Step seven: repeat steps three through six as often as needed

If you don't drink alcohol then you'll still enjoy this greatest hits collection. All the early hits are here and it's really all you need to know about the guy. But there is a lot more good stuff out there. Make sure you give it all a listen.

Go Back To Silent Force.......2007-07-19

While I will admit it did disappoint me, if giving a chance this CD still rises above a lot of the other filth people are putting out these days (Evanesces to name one, even at her worse on this CD Sharon Den Adel still sings circles around Amy Lee (if you could sing in circles anyways)). The Howling was amazing a good start for the CD but then What Have You Done lays the disappointment on thick. I have noticed a lot of people don't like Frozen but personally I think it is a great song. Our Solem Hour is more reminiscent of Silent Force and all in all a good song. Heart Of Everything is also a great song and Cross is also good the rest is very medium to low quality when compared to Silent Force. Most of the time it failed to catch my attention. Still the CD grows on me so maybe one day I will love the CD but never will it surpass the greatness of Silent Force or the beauty of Mother Earth.

Within Temptation keeps getting better.......2007-07-16

This CD is great! Each CD Within Temptation releasese gets better and better. I discovered this group with their 2nd album The Silent Force and really loved it. This CD even exceeded my expectations.

A solid effort.......2007-07-15

I've been a fan of Within Temptation since I heard the amazing song "Angels" from their 2004 CD "The Silent Force." "The Heart of Everything," the Dutch metal band's fourth CD, shows definite progression while going into harder territory. This will be their first CD officially released in the U.S. and it does seem that the material is tailored a little more to American tastes than their previous works. That, however, is not necessarily a bad thing.

The focus of Within Temptation has always been lead singer Sharon den Adel. A natural untrained soprano who can sound amazingly like Kate Bush minus the screeching, Sharon still brings the angelic etherealness that is her trademark but shows off her lower range as well, particularly on "The Howling," "Final Destination" and "Our Solemn Hour," all of which stomp in the best possible way. I still don't quite understand why so many people believe that the first single "What Have You Done" sounds like Evanescence's "Bring Me To Life." It's true that the song is much more "commercial" than what WT usually does (although I still believe that "Angels" could have been a monster hit in America had it been marketed right) and both songs are essentially male/female duets, but the two songs sound nothing alike. If there is an Evanescence-like moment on the CD it's the closing song "Forgiven", which REALLY sounds like "My Immortal" both musically and lyrically. It's still a beautiful song, as is "Frozen," which in spite of a horribly overwrought video also has real American single potential. "The Heart of Everything" isn't perfect--the plodding "The Truth Beneath The Rose" and "All I Need" drag things down--but it's still one of the better CDs I've heard this year. WT got their first real U.S. exposure opening for Lacuna Coil this spring, but I have a feeling we're going to start seeing a lot more of them.

New WT Fan from USA.......2007-07-12

The short of the long is that if you are from the USA, this Netherland based band won't be out of your vocabulary for long. Don't hesitate to purchase this album as it's sure to be liked! Also, I have grown on every track on the album within 3 listens. This one gets 4.5 stars!

I am SO impressed and hopefully Within Temptation succeeds in their release here. I am so grateful that I stumbled across this group during a internet search. I listened to a few tracks on their myspace before buying this album and the 2004 "Silent Force". I can see after reading reviews of WT loyal fans the difference in the two albums; however they are both excellent and I see no room for dissappointment (Yes, I do like this 2007 album better than 2004 as it's more rock). Also, I have read loyal fans blogs and their dislike of reference comparing them to Evanescence, however, we don't have any other band to compare to for that awesome fantasy spine chilling night owl full moon gothic feel. They do not sound like Evanescence and you can't compare sharon and amy but they have the same fantasy like feel in a totally different sound that is excellent!

Is Sarah McLachlan a secret punk rocker? To be sure, her rebellion is hushed. On Afterglow, her first studio album since 1997's Surfacing, McLachlan's music is as tempered as ever; at times even the piano chords at the heart of the sound are tucked neatly beneath layer upon layer of strings and overdubbed voices. Listen to what's being sung within this soothing aural bed, though, and hear the just-before-sleep murmurings of the quietest riot grrl: "I'm a train wreck waiting to happen.... a wildfire born of frustration," "How stupid could I be.... you're no good for me, but you're the only one I see," "I have to push just to see how far you'll go." The latter song ("Push") resolves itself with the assurance, "You complete me." Ultimately, McLachlan fans will be comforted again by what turns out to be her reliably untroubled aesthetic. --Rickey Wright

"I know you can't resist, trying to re-open a sore...".......2007-05-08

Afterglow by Sarah McLachlan is surprisely moving and wonderfully produced. I am not normally a McLachlan super-fan but some of her songs before this album are quite engaging. I decided to give this album a chance, standout tracks include: Time, Perfect Girl, Dirty Little Secret, Stupid, and Answer. Sarah's voice has improved and her lyrics are at its strongest. I could listen to the track, Time all day long, it sucks you in after the first 20 seconds, amazing! So whether you hate or love her, Afterglow will have you bathed in it for awhile. Enjoy!

I particularly enjoyed this CD - as inspired an endeavor as Mirrorball.

I know that this review won't be very helpful, all I can say is that I love this album. Been listening to it for a couple of years now, and it's a fave when I'm in a mood to be mellow. I am giving this five stars so that amazon will recommend more music like this in my personal recommendations. Same with Fumbling Toward Ecstasy.

Classic Sarah.......2007-02-06

I can listen to this CD over and over and still find it refreshing and beautiful. Sarah's songs are soothing to my soul.

Album Description

Hayley Westenra's new album Odyssey was always going to be a different proposition to Pure, the record-breaking 2003 collection which marked her international debut. A lot has happened to the young New Zealander over the past two or three years--and those changes are clearly reflected by a record which encapsulates her growth from a budding teenage prodigy into a mature young woman.

Now, at 18, Hayley is ready to show the world how much she has grown up, both as an artist and as an individual. Fans of Pure will be pleasantly surprised by her new album. Her wonderful voice retains its crystal-clear purity, but Westenra's singing is now richer and more rounded than before. Touring the world and singing in some of its greatest concert venues, such as the Sydney Opera House, Royal Albert Hall, and Carnegie Hall, has worked wonders for her confidence. Suitably emboldened, she has embraced an even wider range of musical styles including classical, hymns, folk and pop.

"I was happy with Pure at the time, but I've moved on so much," says Hayley. "It's really exciting to have something new out there for people to listen to. I wanted to make a record that represented me as a person. And I think I've improved as a vocalist."

Variety is certainly one of the keywords with Hayley's new album. When she first entered a recording studio in New Zealand as a 12-year-old, Westenra restricted herself to classical pieces and show tunes. Now, in addition to impressive takes on classical works, Hayley uses her new album to perform an inspired cover of Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now" and has arranged and written much of the material. "I like to push myself, and I'm now confident enough to try different things. I have been much more involved behind the scenes with this album--I wanted to put my individual stamp on each song."

With her career stretching out promisingly before her, Hayley is also keen to continue experimenting. She is still primarily a classical crossover artist but she also wants to keep broadening those musical horizons. Three years after her international debut CD, Hayley Westenra is still pure: she exudes pure quality and she remains pure class--but her musical journey continues with her new album Odyssey.

Wonderful melodies.......2007-06-08

This is a wonderful CD with beautiful melodies. Hayley Westenra has a very pure voice and sings right on key. The melodies are very relaxing and the musical settings are well arranged.

Hayley Westenra - Odyssey.......2007-06-08

Pure, crystalline, angelic voice. Gorgeously produced. "Prayer" is stunning. "Both Sides Now" wonderful. The rest is good but not her best song selection. When I first heard this girl on the "Celtic Woman" tour I was totally blown away. None of her CDs will disappoint!

Very soothing.......2007-05-14

Hayley Westenra's Odyssey is a very beautiful CD. If you switch on your walkman and listen to the CD's tracks non-stop, you'll soon feel like you're flying in Heaven. It's very soothing and heavenly. It calms you down, without causing you to feel lonely or sad because you're listening to it in solitary, like other vocal or classical songs do sometimes.

I would definitely recommend it to anyone interested. Quanta Qualia and Ave Maria are my most favourite tracks. Quanta Qualia is pure magic! I really feel as if I'm flying in Heaven when I listen to it.

very good pop singer voice.......2007-05-13

the selections were tasteful and varied. the singer has a very good pop singer voice. i would have liked some voice variation between songs. all were sung in exactly the same style. good singing but without tonal variation the disk tends to be bland. i hope that as she gets more exposure she will vary her voice to make the songs stand out individually instead of letting them blend into one song on the disc. i would rate this 5 stars except for that major fault.

Voice & level head deserve high marks .......2007-04-20

Not only has Hayley Westenra's voice remained "pure", but her good sense and sensibilty has stayed intact when so many similar young performers have gone over the deep end with extreme behavior and disreputable remarks. On this CD Miss Westernra covers a number of songs in her own special style, such as excellent versions of "Prayer", "May It Be" and "Both Sides Now". I hope to hear her renditions of more such tunes, old and new. I would like to hear her sing songs like "Yesterday", "I Still Believe in Love" and All I Know. She has a way with her soaring vocals that never lets the listener down.

This teaming of Linda Ronstadt and Cajun folk traditionalist Ann Savoy, billing themselves as the Zozo Sisters, shows how wide is the musical range of bittersweetness. The harmonies and shared lead vocals offer a complementary contrast between Ronstadt's purity of tone and Savoy's more piquant expressiveness. The arrangements turn folk songs into art songs, drawing as much upon chamber strings as Cajun fiddle and accordion. There's an exquisite beauty to the vocals, but the real surprise is how well the album holds together, given a range of material that extends from Cajun songs in French patois to stellar material from Julie Miller ("I Can't Get Over You," with husband Buddy Miller on guitar) and Richard Thompson ("King of Bohemia," "Burns' Supper") to a disarming revival of the Left Banke's 1960s hit "Walk Away Renee." Among other highlights, "Go Away from My Window" provides a showcase for the upper register of Ronstadt's soprano, and Savoy's lead vocals on Bill Monroe's "The One I Love Is Gone" bring out the blues in bluegrass. --Don McLeese

Five Stars for One Track .......2007-07-16

The song "Marie Mouri" was the only good track on the entire album. It has a lot of feeling and soul. Truly well done.

The rest of the album was flat, unimpressive, and way overproduced. Two really good singers overpowered by a bunch of musical(sic) prima-donnas.

Adieu False Heart.......2007-05-10

This is an absolute masterpiece,expertly produced and arrainged.
Hauntingly beautiful folksy romance with alittle country twinge.
Linda Ronstadt continues to melt my heart with each new release and
she is certainly one of the finest female singers on the planet.
ann savoy sounds just like her and they share the lead and harmonies
half&half.Several of the songs are in french and that works well
for them,love it.Hear one of the most outstanding female lead vocal
preformances of the century so far on"Go away from my window" by
Linda.If you love sophisicated ADULT ROMANCE go ahead a take a chance.

Breathtaking..........2007-03-10

This album blew me away. The songs are simple and the singing is heartfelt. The vocal harmonies are perfection! I can't say enough good things about this album.

Cajun Celtic Bluegrass.......2007-02-13

With uncomplicated beauty, Linda Ronstadt and Ann Savoy have given us an outstanding album of unusual music. Recorded at The Cypress House on Bayou Tesche in Parks, Louisiana, these songs could be described as Cajun Celtic Bluegrass. I love the toe-tapping Celtic bluegrass numbers mixed with Cajun ballads sung in French and the instrumental interludes consisting of dulcimers and resophonic violas. The harmonies are truly awesome. And these ladies give us a cover of Walk Away Renee that is stunningly beautiful. If you enjoying collecting rare flowers, this CD is for you.

Beautiful album.......2007-02-06

Beautiful voices; beautiful songs. I listen to this album at home, at work, and in the car, and I bought the album for two friends.

Album Description

US version includes two bonus tracks, 'Stand My Ground' and 'What Have You Done' (Extended Version). 2007 release from the Dutch Gothic Metal band who have been pounding the Metal pavement with their unique brand of hard-edged Metal for over a decade. Their sound is the perfect combination of guitar-driven Hard Rock and ambitious Symphonic Metal. Underneath the aggressive wall of sound lies a secret beauty that can often be dark and uninviting. 13 tracks including 'Howling', 'Frozen' and 'Final Destination'.

Customer Reviews:

Another great album by WT.......2007-07-29

First I'd like to make one note. There are three versions of this album out. This version is probably the smartest choice. It's less than half the cost of the imports and it also includes one more song, Stand My Ground. Sure Stand My Ground has already been released on Silent Force. But you're still talking about half the cost and one added bonus song. It sounds like a no-brainer to me.

I got into Within Temptation with their album Silent Force. I immediately fell in love with their music. Their mix of orchestral music and heavy mettle riffing along with Sharon's amazing voice range landed their music as an instant staple in my collection.

This album is no less amazing. The lyrics can be related to by anyone. The variety in each song keeps the album from getting dull or redundant.

If you like Within Temptation, this album will not disappoint. If you've never heard their music before, I heavily suggest both this album and Silent Force. This album would probably be a great starting point, though, given it's price.

Finally, a US release!.......2007-07-27

Within Temptation are back with their latest arsenal of symphonic rock and metal songs bound to infest themselves in the listener's mind for days on end, and while The Heart of Everything may not benefit from strong orchestral emphasis (as seen on their previous album), it will surely retain WT's loyal fanbase, and will no doubt be their key to crack into the US market.

When I first listened to this album (half asleep on a tour bus in France, mind you), I wasn't sure what to think. There are some notable changes from the band's last album: Sharon's vocals don't quite come off as angelic as they did on "Jillian" or "Dark Wings," instead remaining in a somewhat lower key for the majority of the first few tracks - with virtually none of the high-pitched screeching that distinguished them from the rest of the symphonic metal pack. "The Howling" is a good example of this - much of the verses feature shouted vocals from Sharon that may take some getting used to, but actually suit the song quite nicely.

The next two tracks, "What Have You Done" and "Frozen" were rather disappointing for me. The first makes "Stand My Ground" look like Dark Tranquillity, and I can only assume that this was forced by the band's label. Anyone who said this song sounded like "Bring Me to Life" was right on the mark. Half the vocals are done by Life of Agony frontman Keith Caputo, and as far as I'm concerned, he's no longer welcome on a WT song again. :P That aside, there's really little here to maintain my interest, and "Frozen" is nothing to write home about either. Sharon's vocals seem strained during the chorus, similar to those of Alanis Morissette's, but not in an attractive way.

Fortunately the album picks up its pace with the appealing "Our Solemn Hour," which will surely win over a live audience. The strangest track of the album, the title track, follows, which marks the biggest departure for Sharon - entirely abandoning her falsetto roots for a deeper, grungier vocal. And this time their experimentation worked. "Hand of Sorrow" revisits the older days of WT, sounding closer to Mother Earth-era writing than anything else.

Another favorite, "The Cross," benefits from a well-rounded chorus and better-than-average lyrics, while "Final Destination," a slightly less memorable but altogether decent track should please fans. "All I Need" is the second ballad from the album (they usually come in threes), and while not their finest ballad to date, still surpasses "Frozen." "The Truth Beneath the Rose," the longest track of the album is a success - combining a beautiful symphonic intro with reflective lyrics that may or may not have been inspired by the Beauty of the Beast. Our third ballad, "Forgiven," is also a winner, stripped down to a keyboard and Sharon's beautiful vocals that will send chills down your spine.

Overall, I think this was a very good buy. It doesn't look like the band will surpass their magnum opus, 2000's Mother Earth, but that doesn't mean they'll stop putting out other great albums for their fans. While there are a couple misses, the majority of the songs here are hits and I hope any Americans with taste in music will make the wise decision to buy this CD when it's released domestically in July.

Highlights: The Howling, The Heart of Everything, Hand of Sorrow, The Cross, The Truth Beneath the Rose, Forgiven

-----------

Originally reviewed on April 30. Here's hoping more American fans will check out this great band, and hopefully dig into their back catalog as well. :)

this sound done right.......2007-07-27

"The Heart of Everything" is Within Temptation's first attempt at conquering the U.S. While I have had it with this genre (which, I would like to add, is not "goth") in general, it is bands - and albums - like this that keep me from writing all of these Sarah Brightman metal bands off. This is, simply put, a solid piece of work and likely to find its way onto my best-of list at the end of the year. Many have said that they are disappointed that WT has streamlined their sound into a more commercial direction, but in my opinion, this direction works for them. The songs are immediately catchy (I'll even admit it: I like "What Have You Done"), without being inane. This is obviously being pushed to the Evanescence crowd, but frankly this band is better. Hopefully WT won't be too late to the table. And as much as I like "The Hear tof Everything," here is a similar album that I like even better: After Forever. Better yet, buy them both and strike a blow against wretched post-grunge.

Album of the year!.......2007-07-26

Within Temptations's 4th album has finally been released in America (it was released in Europe since March). This album is incredible from start to finish. Songs like Frozen, Forgiven, Hand Of Sorrow, and the title track showcases Sharon's beautiful operatic voice backed by heavy guitars, strings, and choirs, which makes the songs very epic. They will be headlining their first US tour in September so make sure to check them out. If you like Evanescence or Nightwish, you'll love Within Temptation.

A Masterpiece.......2007-07-26

This CD is astonishing, which is to be expected from an incredible band like Within Temptation. They've been huge in Europe for almost a decade, and it's about time they made it to America. The Heart of Everything exemplifies everything the band has worked toward since 1998. It is huge, epic, intense, beautiful, and spellbinding...pretty much everything you look for in a CD. The songs do not get tiresome even after dozens of listens (which I have done, believe me). And Sharon den Adel has the voice of an angel.

If you are a fan of Evanescence, Lacuna Coil, Nightwish, or any other music featuring a gorgeous female voice featured against music that rocks, buy this now. You may simply listen to it, awed by its beauty (like during the ballad "Forgiven"). But do not be ashamed if you find yourself rocking out to it with your speakers turned up as loud as they go (especially on "The Howling" and "The Heart of Everything"). Enjoy!

Like a stateside Sandy Denny, Eva Cassidy's voice managed to be ethereal yet soulful, haunting yet warm, and evocative enough to make you believe--at least during those moments when you're listening to it--that she's the best singer you've ever heard. The purity of the late Washington D.C. singer's voice, set against tasteful strings and her own angelic backing vocals, shines on the opening "I Know You by Heart," catches fire on "Wade in the Water," and never fades throughout this 1997 studio album. And while Cassidy's gorgeous vocals may be best served by quietly reflective tracks such as "Nightbird" and "Waly Waly," it's still fun to hear her attack "Time Is a Healer" with a melismatic fervor that could kick Whitney and Mariah's asses. If you're new to Cassidy, either this CD or the Songbird compilation would make a fine introduction to a great American artist. --Bill Forman

Eva is pure pleasure!.......2007-05-12

Eva Cassidy is one of the most gifted and versatile voices I have ever heard. She has more moods than the weather. Her voice is by turns, blissfully light and tender, salty, jazzy, but always pure and true. I love this singer, and I have a huge collection of female singers. She is among the best. What a terrible loss that she is no longer with us.

Eva Cassidy has a voice like a bell. Her music is presented with instruments that do not overpower her voice and the final product is one of perfect balance.
Everyone I have introduced to Ms. Cassidy is totally captured by her albums.

Eva by Heart.......2006-11-10

This is a great CD. She was a very talented artist.

I love all of Eva Cassidy's CDs. She is my favorite music artist. "Songbird" is a great CD too! Buy every single one of her CDs, it's worth it.

UPLIFTING.......2006-01-21

This CD is definitely an uplifting arrangement of her musical renditions of some beautiful favorites! "Waly Waly", "I Know You By Heart", and "Blues In The Night" are beautifully sung by this amazing artist! She belts out Blues like you have never heard it before. You can hear not just a voice, but also her emotion all through her music. This is a phenomenal compilation of pop, soul, R&B, jazz, blues, gospel as well as folk music. Even though this talented and remarkable artist and musician is no longer with us, she is still very much alive in our hearts through her music!
