The collaboration between Patti Labelle and Diane Warren might not be as splendiferous as that of Dionne Warwick and Bacharach and David, but it is one that makes sense. Labelle is an emotional singer with an üaut;ber-dramatic approach. Warren, whose pop/soul songs ("Unbreak My Heart, "Because You Loved Me") have been hits for nearly every major female singer (including Labelle), can at her best infuse her material with a girlfriend empowerment that's equally theatrical. The result is a CD that is Oprah's slumber party--an estrogen-enhanced litany of L.U.V. delivered by a singer who can give soul to a line as hackneyed as "If I was the sun I would shine my light to light your world". It is Labelle's voice that saves When a Woman Loves from cliché city; and on the hushed title track and the disco-driven "Too Many Tears, Too Many Times," Labelle makes magic out of material that teeters toward the mushy. --Amy Linden

Not Patti's best work..........2007-07-23
The album just doesn't have any kick! It starts off with a fun intro ("The Kitchen") which is a telephone conversation between Patti and one of her girlfriends talking about Patti's man troubles while Patti proceeds to cook up a storm - a recurring motif throughout the album. This was a great move creatively - very entertaining!
The down side? Too many ballads and because they're all Diane Warren compositions, they start to sound redundant after a while. The title track, which is a beautiful ballad should've been placed somewhere further in the album and not as the first track. The uptempo songs aren't bad (the ones produced by Jam & Lewis anyway). "Too Many Tears, Too Many Times" is a throwback to the disco days - something that Donna Summer or Thelma Houston could've recorded albeit not as vocally powerful as Miss Patti herself! "Call Me Gone" is catchy - but Patti's overbearing ad libs towards the end get a bit annoying after repeated listens. Perhaps that's why as the first single, radio didn't pick it up.
The club banger "Time Will" sounds out of place on this album. Produced by Hex Hector, it sounds like a remix that would've been better on a CD Maxi-Single. Further to that, the tracks that follow are all ballads including Patti's weak remake of Taylor Dayne's "Love Will Lead You Back". This was a #1 hit for Dayne and Patti should've left it alone, particularly since she didn't bother to change any of the vocal arrangements. It sounds like a simple rip-off of Dayne's hit.
I much prefer Patti's follow-up "Timeless Journey" and "When A Woman's..." predecessor, "Flame" albums. These are much better releases with more creative material and a good balance of uptempo cuts, soulful ballads and quiet storm jams. "When A Woman Loves" was quickly forgotten after its release and that shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone.
I LOVE PATTI.......2006-03-22
Experience is still the best teacher!.......2005-03-28
The best of the lot include the title track, "Make Tonight Beautiful," "If I Was a River," "Why Do We Hurt Each Other," "Call Me Gone," and a cover of "Love Will Lead You Back."
The album loses a star due to the two forgettable fast tracks ("Too Many Tears, Too Many Times" and "Time Will"), obviously added to satisfy the dance club crowd.

This is a well crafted album of songs. The promotion for this album was unclear because this is meant for people for enjoy Patti's A/C & Quiet Storm side not her Urban contemporary side. Some people didn't get the memo. This is a great choice for anyone who likes romantic, sensual, intimate and passionate Adult Pop/Adult Contemporary. If it was promotioned to the right demographic, it would have been more successful with higher charting singles. There only two Urban songs here "Tell Me Where It Hurts" & "Call Me Gone." Her vocals are just right to suit the songs. My favourite songs on this album are the hits "When a Woman Loves", "Time Will", "Call Me Gone" & "Too Many Tears, Too Many Times." As well as album cuts like "Make Tonight Beautiful", "Tell Me Where It Hurts", "If I Was A River" & "I'll Still Love You More." Kuddos to Diane Warren for the songwriting! Recommended to any Adult Contemporary/Pop fan.
Not her best! Too much Diane Warren overkill!.......2004-07-06

Australian stage show about the life of Peter Allen. Features all his international hits and an amazing performance from Chrissie Amphlett (of the Divinyls) as Judy Garland! 1998 EMI.Customer Reviews:
Re-listening to OZ from Oz.......2004-01-28
It definitely would NOT have worked on Broadway with these arrangements because it retains too much the quality of a lounge act; not nearly 'big' enough for Broadway. BUT the performances are really terrific and the period arrangements are true to form.
I wish PRETTY KEEN TEEN, SURE THING BABY and TAUGHT BY EXPERTS had been kept in the Broadway production
Enjoy!
OH BOY, WHAT A JOY, THE SHOWS A HIT!!.......2002-12-11
The music is outstanding.
The cast is the best.
The show PHENOMINAL!!!!
The songs lift your spirits beyond belief. They just make you feel you are up there on that stage with the cast. You would understand why the songs are on this cd and the order they are in as they happen in the show if you saw it first, but trust me you can listen to the cd before you see the show.
The cast featured on this cd are Australias best!
TODD MCKENNEY (Singin'In the Rain, Crazy for You, 42nd Street, Strictly Ballroom{movie})just to name a few, Plays Peter Allen.
CHRISSIE AMPHLETT (The lead singer in the band "The Divinyls", plus several shows) plays JUDY GARLAND.
JILL PERRYMAN (Austarlias lady of the stage and screen {small and big} Hello Dolly!, Funny Girl, Annie, to name a few) plays Peter Allens Mother MARION WOOLNOUGH.
ANGELA TOOHEY (Cabaret, Jesus Christ Superstar) plays LIZA MINNELLI. A very scary fantastic roll. You would think you were watching Liza on stage she has the role down so well.
Robyn Arthur (Beauty and the Beast, Les Miserables, Cats, Cosi) plays several roles.
Murray Bartlett (4th season of Sex and the City, Australian tv & theatre shows)plays Greg Connell. Peter Allen's partner.
The music that features in this show is outstanding and moving. There are moving/love songs: All i wanted was the dream, Sure thing baby, Quiet please, there is a lady on stage, I'd rather leave while i'm in love, Best that you can do, Love dont need a reason, I honestly love you, Dont cry out loud, Tenterfield Saddler
Fun and enjoyable songs:Continental American, When i get my name in lights, Pretty Keen teen, Only an older woman, Dont wish too hard, Sure thing baby, Taught by experts, Not the boy next door,everything old is new again, she loves to hear the music, I still call australia home, I GO TO RIO!!
The stage, the music, the fun and the life of Australias and the worlds most out there and amazing enterainer comes to life in this musical and cd. When it comes to a stage near you, you have to buy tickets. And if your anything like the millions of Aussies that have seen it you will see it again and again. With the likes of the Phantoms, Les Mis etc.. around and gracing our stages after 20 or so years, i know THE BOY FROM OZ will still be around gracing our stages and our childrens stages for many many many years.
OH BOY! WHAT A JOY! THE BOYS A HIT!
THIS MUSICAL EXPERIENCE WILL TAKE YOU FROM NEW YORK TO RIO AND OLD LONDON TOWN! BUT STILL CALL AUSTRALIA HOME!
OR YOU MIGHT WANT TO GO TO RIO!
