Drum & Bass Strip To The Bone By Howie B

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Though most listeners identify Jamaica's legendary "riddim twins" with seminal reggae artists like Peter Tosh and Black Uhuru, the pair of mutating chameleons has also arranged, produced, and laid down nonpareil rhythm foundations for, among many others, James Brown, Bob Dylan, KRS-1, the Rolling Stones, and Carly Simon. The musically adventurous duo stopped counting their collaborations over the decades they've worked together at 500 tunes. Still looking for new territory to conquer, they join forces this time out with U.K. producer-remixer-deejay Howie B, who's worked with the likes of Brian Eno and Ry Cooder, and has released solo albums for Mo'Wax/Island/Polydor and his own Pussyfoot label. With Howie B at the helm, Sly and Robbie enter today's dance world, and, as usual, they show the youngsters a thing or ten. In fact, Howie B's trippy edits--most of the knob-twiddling was done on the spot, as the musicians played--bring a fresh kind of central-nervous-system stimulation and pair a European keyboard feel to Sly and Robbie's solid-gold reggae syncopations. As premillennium reggae flounders in the doldrums and drum 'n' bass turns into one long yawn, this set offers a new musical environment, charged with Howie B's nuanced techno oddities and grounded in the organic appeal of Shakespeare's smart-bomb bass--phat and on-target--and Dunbar's drum programming--impossible to distinguish from his legendary hands-on technique. In fact, the set has such broad potential appeal that Palm Pictures has also released a long-form, 35-minute DVD video Strip to the Bone (after the album's title single), featuring a bevy of L.A. strippers and proving that the only thing that won't bounce to Sly and Robbie is silicone. --Elena Oumano

    Amazon.com

    In the "conscious" rap game, even mid-list mainstreamers tend to get all but shut out of the highest-profile vehicles for hip-hop (BET, MTV, urban radio). Among these, Talib Kweli remains that exemplary liminal artist, one foot in the artistic purity of his underground roots and the other planted firmly in business of popular culture. Recent albums--The Beautiful Struggle and Right About Now--disappointed fans and critics alike, but Ear Drum marks a milestone in the Kweli catalogue. Wisely chosen collaborators (Kanye West, Roy Ayers, Jean Grae, Pete Rock, KRS-One, even Justin Timberlake and Norah Jones), accessible beats, and Kweli's staple of insightful, rhythmically drilling lyrics conspire to create his best outing since 2002's Quality. Blatantly front-loaded, Ear Drum's early tracks clearly outshine its back half. "NY Weather Report," "Say Something," "Holy Moly," and especially "Hostile Gospel Pt. 1" plainly sear, the latter two establishing the repeating theme of Kweli's tenuous relationship to religion. As Kweli himself makes clear in his first line on Ear Drum, "They say you can't please everybody," and plenty of sleepers lurk among Ear Drum's 20 cuts, but the standout tracks suggest that Kweli has bounced back from declining relevance with all cylinders firing. --Jason Kirk

    There's a rule in commercial pop: don't bite the hand that feeds you. Translation? If you're getting love on TRL, it's best leaving well enough alone and tinkering only slightly with the sound that pays your bills. So you have to give Pink a whole heap of credit. The Philly-raised songbird may have made her rep with infectious and rugged pop-R&B hits like "There You Go" and the remake of "Lady Marmalade," but like the fuchsia coif she once sported, that sound is gone. In its place is a more driving alt-rock attack, liberally laced with some late-night blues and heartfelt lyrics that, while they sometimes come off like diary entries (the simplistic bon mot "Your pain is painful" in "Family Portrait"), are clearly Pink's thoughts, as opposed to words someone put in her mouth. Helping Pink express her inner Alanis are Dallas Austin, who produced the insistent rocker "18 Wheeler," and former 4 Non Blonde Linda Perry, who Pink has resurrected from one-hit-wonder status. Mixing up thumping beats, ("Get the Party Started"), with folksy confessionals, Pink's potent vocals and her honest determination make this a risk worth hearing. --Amy Linden

    3 out of 5 stars Latest album is much better.......2007-06-28

    I LOVE Pink!! The first album I bought was the latest one - "I'm Not Dead", and I love it. So I decided to investigate her earlier work. While I am glad I have "Missundaztood", I didn't find it as compelling as her latest work. Good to see where she has come from though.

    5 out of 5 stars understood and admired.......2007-06-12

    what a sharp lady...love her latest cd...so thought I'd give her older, breakthrough cd a try...great sound. fresh and original collection. smart, sassy, interesting, sophisticated but fun. love the lyrics. love the variety of different musical styles. pink is cool, and honest and real. and she makes fantastic, memorable tunes....already a classic

    5 out of 5 stars One of my favorite albums of all time. She is an amazing songwriter. .......2007-03-26

    Not only is Pink an amazing singer, but her lyrics are soo deep and personal. I love people who write about the sad times because a lot of people needs to hear something they can relate to. Family Potrait speaks to a lot of people, including my brother, who overhead the song and keeps requesting me to replay track 7. The whole album is a work of art so it's hard to choose, but if I had to choose, my favorites are Don't let me get me, Just Like a Pill, Family Potrait and Lonely Girl. Pink's voice is soo raw and real that you can actually feel the pain in her voice. Once you listen to this album, you will want hear more. So I will go ahead and let you know that her third album is Try This and her fourth, which is her best thus far is "I'm Not Dead". So please give this album a chance. Pink is a real artist and she will be around for a long time because she is true to herself.

    4 out of 5 stars out of the gate and running hard.......2007-03-26

    This is Pink's first album to my knowledge. It has some raw studio tape footage that is cute and rough. I loved it. The segments give a good hint of what this ballsy little girl is about, and a preview of the bold, strong woman she became. She has fun with this release and you get to hear it. It is cool to listen to the inside track banter between Pink and the recording engineer. She is a force to be reckoned with; and a sweet lady all in one.

    5 out of 5 stars Pink.......2006-12-31

    I kind of like this CD. I don't listen to it as much anymore for some reason, but I think I'm overdue to listen to it again. One of my favorite songs on this album is "respect" which talks about how girls should act around guys and how they should not let boys push them around any time the boy thinks it's convenient for them "no freebies in the limosouine that's not what it's about. let 'em know just what to do give it up he won't call you respect is just a minimum, go on girl and get you some" Another song about not letting men push girls around that I really like is "can't get me down". Which talks about getting ready to face the day and anything that might come one's way. I love encouraging songs like that... they really help you face your problems in life. I don't like to many of the songs on here because of the swearing content but I do listen to "Mizundastood" constantly. She only says one swear word in the song but I don't mind. Otherwise I avoid songs on here that have swearing on them. I like this CD otherwise... but if you're under sixteen, I wouldn't recommend it because of the swearing. I forgot to add that another one of my favorite songs is "Don't Let Me Get Me".

    The bad news is that there is no "Sour Times" to equal the first album's greatness. Lead single "Cowboys" doesn't do the trick, not with its '50s sci-fi dub vibe and the Yma Sumac stylings of Beth Gibbons. The upside is that this bold sophomore release is, even at this late date in trip-hop's evolution, still startling, thanks to the mix of Geoff Barrow's soundscapes and Gibbons's haunting wail. --Jeff Bateman

    5 out of 5 stars In my opinion, better than Dummy........2007-04-26

    For the sole reason that this album far transcends the poppy undertones of Dummy, I give it a 5/5.

    That being said, I'd still like to give a track-by-track review of this product.

    SHORTEST TRACK: Half Day Closing (also one of the best)
    LONGEST TRACK: Humming (another favorite of mine)

    Cowboys: You can't help but feel the eerie opening to this album pulsate in your mind as the first kick drum hits grace your eardrums. Beth sings in a screeching tone of voice, almost scornful, giving this song an intensity unmatched by previous songs. My only gripe is that it loses its bass after those initial drumstrikes. 9/10

    All Mine: An enjoyably simple bump, its lyrics are hard-hitting and possessive (Tethered and tied/there's nowhere to hide from me). 9/10

    Undenied: Starts with a moody 55-second instrumental (I love it!), then Beth's lyrics come in as a contrast to the last song (this one is about losing love rather than keeping love close). 10/10

    Half Day Closing: The confusing beat and heavy distortion on the instruments and lyrics (at one point, Beth's voice sounds like a distorted guitar!) make this one quite dark and heavy. The lyrics are about the changing times, and how innocence has been lost. 10/10

    Over: Starts off with a creepy acoustic guitar, then builds into a strange ballad with heavy drums that burst with string hits. The lyrics match the atmosphere; they are equally creepy. 9/10

    Humming: My favorite on the album (and luckily, the longest!) It starts off with a cliché UFO-style humming (hence the title) accompanied by what sounds like reversed strings, then the beat blasts in at 1:30 with lyrics that seem to be about sex. 10.5/10!

    Mourning Air: Soft and sad, this song is about holding on tight to love, at risk of slipping into depression. A pretty amazing track. 9.5/10

    Seven Months: I don't like this one as much as the others, but it still packs a punch. The scornful lyrics accompany its beat well. 9/10

    Only You: The most credited samples lie in this track, but are not too noticeable, as samples are in other tracks. The lyrics are stunning, and Beth sings them with passion. 10/10

    Elysium: The name of the track means "paradise," but the lyrics are about hate and self-hate, which makes for another one of those title-lyric contrasts that can make or break an album. This one makes it! 9.5/10

    Western Eyes: This song is the most friendly on the album, but certainly still darker than those on Dummy. The sample at the end goes well with the beat, but it should have been placed elsewhere in the song, IMO. 10/10

    Final verdict: 10/10

    I love this album, and it arrived at my house promptly and in excellent condition. Thank you!

    3 out of 5 stars I had higher expectations.......2007-04-26

    I had seen two music videos for this CD and thought it was going to be great. After listening to all the tracks, I only liked maybe three. I am a heavy trip-hop and acid jazz fan, but this was just psychidelic junk. It was like a whiny, down-beat version of aphex twin. I guess, if thats your thing... buy it NOW!

    4 out of 5 stars very impressive sophomore release.......2007-03-22

    Portishead's second release comes as a surprise. my first listen to it i felt rather disappointed. beth gibbons' voice was distorted almost the whole time and a much more twisted use of sampling and scratching going on. during my initial listen i was running short on time and could only sample bits of the songs. i guess that is why my disappointment came through. "Dummy" is very much a singles based album that can fulfill the effect it desires through quick listenings. i still love the album and don't take that comment to be anything other than that. this second album is a collection of songs, it is meant to be listened to straight through. each song flows directly into another and gives a seamless tapestry and progression of the trip-hop sound. of course Barrow and crew give us a sampling of singles like "All Mine", "Humming" and "Only You", but seeing where these tracks fit in with the album makes these tunes seem all the more significant. after my first couple of listens (obviously with headphones on) i now "experience" this album rather than listen to it. when recommending portishead i still have to give the nod to "Dummy", but any avid fan of trip-hop needs to have this album in their collection. it makes you want more, but when.....

    3 out of 5 stars extremely disappointing at first, now addicted.......2006-08-15

    It was like listening to the very few parts of Dummy I didn't like for an entire CD. Way too much gratuitous scratching, and screechy vocals for may taste. Extremely disappointing.

    It's now perhaps six months after I wrote the paragraph above and I am completely addicted to this album. Cinematic trip goth at its very very best

    5 out of 5 stars I feel so cold..........2006-04-13

    There's nothing like Portishead and nothing like their 2nd album. Its darker, creepier, and more haunting than the first. The entire album has an overal similar sound which makes for a more themed and theatrical sonic experience. I like this better than the first album which had the obvious singles and dabblings in various spectrums of trip-hop which now resembles everyone from tricky to morcheeba. However on this 2nd release, Portishead holds their own, establishing their own trademarked sound: an eerie, slow-paced death-orchestra led by a sultry singer with a heart of black-gold. This music will get into your brain and eat away like bad acid. Exquisite production and smart use of turntables. From the intro of eerie high pitched twinklings over a heartbeat that lead into twangy strums of electric guitar and record scratching, to the last song which ends with the sampled vocals of an old bluesman pining about hookers and gin, this is a masterpiece recording. Goes well with a late-night martini and captures the dreary mood of a cool, misty morning in Autumn just after it has rained and the fog is still hanging in the air...

    2 out of 5 stars What's with the organ?.......2007-03-21

    Ocean breezes and steel drum music absolutely make my Caribbean vacations, so I was thrilled to find this album to I could bring a taste of the tropics to my own backyard.

    I was so disappointed when I received this album...the sound of the steel drums are completely ruined by the addition of one of those old organs everybody's goofy uncle had in the 60s and 70s. You know the ones...they let you put a samba, bossa nova or fox trot beat over every Billy Joel song you tried to play.

    It's a shame, because it is a nice selection of songs, but it turns the beautiful tropical music into a kitschy tiki lounge experience instead.

    1 out of 5 stars So elevator music!.......2007-01-10

    Bought this CD for a Caribbean themed party I was hosting. The music is great if you want to put everyone to sleep! Its like that background music you hear in the elevator! It wasnt as lively as I was looking for! So if you like it soft and mello... then this is for you! If you want lively...try a different one!

    If I could give this C.D. 10 stars - I would! This is our favorite summer pool party music. Every track is fabulous! We even play this when it's just the family having hamburgers on the deck. It transports you to a breezy caribbean island with swaying palm trees. Okay, so it's just in your head, but man, this is a fun C.D.

    With Foley Room, Montreal's Amon Tobin throws his torch in with the blazing tradition of full-length works composed in the majority with found sounds. Having formerly made his name as a craftsman of vinyl samples into towering rhythmic dynamos like his fin-de-siècle LP, Supermodified, Tobin tries sampling the world for himself. With microphone in hand and his tape console slung over his shoulder, he captures the timbre of factories, a massive satellite dish, and local avant-garde improvisers with equal zest. One loping highlight comes early in "Big Furry Head," when during a token trip-hop lead-in--all reverb, squiggle, and over-compressed drumbeat--a tiger's hungry growls tears new life across the frequency spectrum, signaling the abyss-deep thump of Tobin's next new groove. Whether he's wandering through lush, meandering string workouts ("Bloodstone") or more aggressive avenues toward beauty ("Ever Falling"), Tobin's gait is ever informed by the beat. But where some contemporary found-sound sculptures like Matthew Herbert's Plat du Jour keep a more strident sampling ethos in the service of musical politics, Tobin's approach clearly reeks with a love of sound manipulation as its own reward: every process an adventure, each completed work a revelation. --Jason Kirk

    Album Description

    Electronic beatmaking legend Amon Tobin reinvents himself on Foley Room, an album meticulously created from field recordings and other found sounds. Still very much an Amon record, but with fresh new underlying sounds. Includes bonus DVD documenting the process.

    3 out of 5 stars Certainly not the best from Tobin .........2007-08-06

    I've been a die hard Amon Tobin fan for many years. Also, being into music production for about 6 years, means that I have a LOT of respect for the man and what he does with sounds.

    This album is probably in my opinion the least musical of all his albums. It still has that dark and edgy Amon Tobin vibe that he is so famous for, but some of the tracks on the album just miss the point a bit, with too little musicality. Sure it's interesting out of an "experimental" perspective, the rhythmic work is complex and inspired etc., but some of the tracks have little direction and no real tune to them, which I personally find a bit bothersome and hard to listen to. Tracks like "Big Furry Head" and "Always" make the album more worthwhile though.

    I think this album will mostly appeal to real muso's, that can fully appreciate the idea of the use of foley sounds, the recording of them, how he incorporated them into this album, the arrangements etc.

    If you don't have all his other albums, I would rather recommend some of his earlier work like Supermodified, Bricolage etc.

    1 out of 5 stars I DON'T LIKE IT (It needs a negative review).......2007-07-12

    I don't like this album, it is extremely boring. I'm not holding it to comparison to anything prior by Amon Tobin. I don't like it because I found myself fast fowarding through parts in search for something more.

    I wanted the grass to get greener and this was never the case. I also search for something in music that I might enjoy, or even a singular sound that I can sample and exploit.

    This album failed to entertain me, or make me feel energized. Even with the hope of discovering some cool sounds it is a total let down.

    5 out of 5 stars o.0.......2007-07-08

    I wonder if he played all those random instruments. The percussion sounds very natural, I would find it hard to believe they were all from a computer program, it would probably be easier to just record the drums and edit them afterwards. There's lots of stuff you miss listening to this the first few times around, lots of little details in the sound.
    There's some symphony stuff going on as well, guitars too, chimes, synthesizers, vocals, pretty much everything... and none of it sounds familiar. Once all this settles in you have a very replayable CD.

    When I first heard Amon Tobin I listened to Out From Out Where and then bought his others. They were all good, but this one stands out a little because the structures of the songs are pretty random, but they make sense somehow. I barely notice any repetition on Foley Room. If I listen to Permutation or Bricolage it is very noticable by comparison.

    Electronic music is a genre with a lot of sub-genres and is expanding all the time. It's difficult because like computers themselves, electronic music is always getting updated and you have to keep up with the times. However some people are continually able to bring something fresh that has a new sound. This is one of those cds that actually gets better the 4th or 5th time around.

    5 out of 5 stars should appeal to ----.......2007-05-18

    conceptual work combining manmade and natural found sounds with conventional music,if this project was just a experiment I hope that the artist was keeping notes,we need more !!

    5 out of 5 stars 2007? Try 2307.......2007-05-09

    Foley Room is an industrial breakbeat / drum-n-bass symphony. Amon Tobin not only improves but he vastly raises the bar every single time he releases an album. You know this is the man who made Out from Outwhere and Permutation right away but what you cannot prepare for is the epic nature in which he rings in 2007 with music that is 2307.

    I have a deep love for the album format and 'Foley Room' further defines this affection. It allows for structure and limitations to encourage discipline and creativity. The music here is like the intensity of a beautifully emotional 500 lb. beast trapped within a metal cage where he barely fits and has only one small air hole. He is angry and dents the structure while trying to free himself. He becomes hopeless realizing this is impossible. He ponders his life, becomes bitter and angry again. Somehow, we feel like he got himself into this.

    Take that for what you will, but the only album I can compare this to is 'Endtroducing...' and that is a stretch because this is much more intense and the songs are mostly shorter in length (my only gripe because these songs could be of brilliantly epic length to match the mood). But the darkness and emotion is evident and delves deeper into actual human psyche than I'd say nearly ALL of, at least, electronic music.

    Amon Tobin has officially been ordained into the vanguard of music's elite.

    Lindsay Lohan leaps into her much anticipated debut CD with a blast of something that simulates warmed-over Led Zeppelin (the lyrically ferocious "First") and from there finesses it into a stylish experiment in pounding away at teen pop's predictability. Influences--not all of whom her 8-to-14-year-old fans will flip to, or even find, in their pinup mags--loom large: While the Ashlee Simpson-like rocker "Nobody 'Til You" winds into the Jessica Simpson-y "Symptoms of You," the lovelorn "Something I Never Had," taps a sweetly unself-conscious vocal vein that owes gratitude to the otherwise highly un-Lohan-like Lisa Loeb. Though Lohan might balk at the comparison--she is, after all, the "Ultimate"-spawning original teenage drama queen--fellow tween queen Hilary Duff's stamp is pressed firmly into stormy self-explorers like "Disconnected" and "Anything But Me." Where "Speak" intones loudest, though, is in its least-rocking, most beat-propelled songs: The title track dips and bounces tantalizingly, begging hands-in-the-air listeners to "c'mon and let it out"; "To Know Your Name" digitizes a sexy hip-hop inflected dance number; and "Rumors," a J. Lo-like thumper (and one in a trifecta of pouts over the pitfalls of stardom) ends this disc on a don't-stop, bound-for-diva-dom note. -Tammy La Gorce

    This album was pretty good. I'm not a fan of Lindsay Lohan, but her music is pretty upbeat. I had all the albums to another singer I love, and thought maybe I'll try Lindsay, and see what she's like. It's not bad, but it's not the best either. The songs I like are First, Speak, and Rumors.

    5 out of 5 stars Come on and let it out!.......2007-03-16

    Lindsay Lohan has succeeded in producing a fantastic album. Though not in the finesse of stars like Jessica Simpson or Delta Goodrem, Lindsay brings her own attitude and attributes to a new and refreshing album. Lyrics are well done, and most songs are co-written by Kara DioGaurdi, who has written many songs for other musicians and film soundtracks.
    There are rock tracks such as Disconnected and Rumours, to the more heartfelt tracks such as Something I Never Had and Very Last Moment in Time.
    Although other reviewers have critized Lindsays work, saying its terrible, they may not realise she hasn't been dropped from her label and has even released a second album A Little More Personal. How bad can it be if she has two albums under her belt??

    4 out of 5 stars Light leisure listening.......2007-02-27

    Lindsay Lohan's "Speak" is not a deep, meaningful album, whatever that might be. And Lindsay should concentrate more on acting than singing. Nevertheless, "Speak" is an enjoyable pop album. It's got bouncy, catchy tunes and Lohan's voice is actually kind of interesting. "Speak" is a good album to throw on while doing stuff around the house or as background music to reading. You'll catch yourself tapping your foot. Overall, a pleasant surprise. The record has genuine merit to it and is not just something put out by a celebrity for the purpose of doing a "project" in another art form than the one they're already established in, which is the criticism from other reviewers. Solid job by Lindsay. Now if she just works at cleaning up her life.

    5 out of 5 stars Pay no attention to the other reviews!!!.......2007-02-11

    What can i say I LOVE this album. It's a little edgy, somewhat pop, but real good listen. It's more Lindsay Lohan in freaky friday type music than the pop music in Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen. If you are expecting more songs like "Rumors" than this is not the album for you. If you are into Kelly Clarkson's "Breakaway" album then this is a good buy. Def worth the money.

    This is a very nice CD when I put it in to play my whole house relaxed and clamed down and just listened very nice. The drumming is fantatsic, but if you do not like native american flutes not a CD for you in some parts of the CD the flutes are very loud. But I really enjoy this CD.

    I really enjoy both CD's Sacred Spirit Drums and Drum Medicine. I live in an area of very little resource for this type of purchase- I was very happy to find what I wanted online- also very glad to be able to listen before I purchased- would not have bought them without that. Service was the best- shipping was also very good.. I will consider this type of purchase again when needed.

    2 out of 5 stars Pretty Boring.......2003-07-23

    This is the first CD of all percussion I have ever bought, and it'll prolly be my last. An album of all percussion is, frankly, pretty boring. Much more interesting to hear percussion-heavy *music* such as, say, Peter Gabriel. "The Hunt" and "The Dancing Sorcerer" are ok, but even at its best, this album is background noise.

    5 out of 5 stars Mickey's Classic!.......2002-08-12

    All I can say is awesome album! Goes well with the previous effort "At The Edge".

    Mickey gathers up percussion players from all over the world to create a mass drum/percussive ensemble with pieces that will go to your soul.

    Great headphone album. Sit back and let Mickey & Co. take you on a percussive trip around the world.

    Planet Drum is the way to go if you're looking for some good Mickey Hart.

    3 out of 5 stars Some Successful Experiments, But Not a Cohesive Album.......2000-10-08

    In this concept album, Hart brings great drummers from around the world to participate. The result is wholly new works that are without question novel, but this record has not fared well in my collection since I bought it four years ago. I find myself choosing traditional Brazilian or Latin American or Indian or Middle Eastern performances rather than Planet Drum. I would especially warn potential buyers that Planet Drum is not a survey of percussion styles that will help you decide what you do and do not like. It is instead outside all the mainstream styles and I would consider it the kind of album that would augment a percussion collection rather than start one.

    4 out of 5 stars 'Emotions' Runs High and Shows Mariah's Vocal Range To Great Effect.......2007-07-07

    Not one to contently bask in the glow of her burning fame in the early 1990's, Mariah Carey grabbed her lunch pail and quickly churned out a very enjoyable follow-up to her debut smash 'Mariah Carey'. With the enormous success of her first CD, it was an intimidating act for any artist to follow it up. But she succeeds admirably with 'Emotions'.

    It shows Mariah was no fluke, displaying notes and pitch-perfect vocals that even today very few female singers can match. But not all the songs are keepers. I usually play only the first 5 songs and skip the last 5. My favorite is still 'Make It Happen'. The power and range Mariah displays on this track is remarkable. She pierces the heavens with her high notes and enormous lung power. I think Mariah really sings this song like she means it because she's writing the song from personal experience to not give up on her dreams of 'Making It'.

    I think Tommy Mottola used 'Emotions' as a follow-up CD to spotlight Mariah's voice more so than the songs themselves. You can hear every part of Mariah's vocal range in the choice of songs on this CD. Obviously her upper range gets more of a workout on this CD than any other one in her entire Sony/Virgin/Island catalog. I think 'Emotions' was released as a vehicle to show her vocal chops and it succeeded in every way.

    I wouldn't say the quality of songs is right up there compared with her debut CD or later ones (especially 'Daydreams'), but her vocal high register has never sounded better. Keep that tea kettle whistling, Mariah !

    5 out of 5 stars This hasn't aged at all.......2007-01-21

    While never a mega-fan of Mariah's, I was bowled over by her voice, the fact that she wrote her own songs, and that she released another album full of strong material just a little over a year after her debut. Some folks would have suffered creative burnout, but Mariah was just getting started.

    I bought a copy of her self-titled 1990 debut, but I never did get around to owning a copy of "Emotions" (something that's going to change very soon). I don't why because I remember "Emotions," "Can't Let Go" (which, as much as I roll my eyes over love songs, has one of the prettiest melodies I've ever heard with a love song), and "Make It Happen" getting constant radio airplay in 1991 - and I enjoyed those songs each and every time.

    Her lyrics were poetic and struck a chord with the then-teenager me, and her sound, while pop, had strong soulful overtones. She helped continue breathing life into a stale music scene and that feeling still resonates with me a little over 15 years after its release.

    It can't be said enough that "Emotions" is classic 90s, is a great addition to the CD collection, and is Mariah at the top of her game.

    And, best of all, the album's sound doesn't sound aged. - Donna Di Giacomo

    4 out of 5 stars Mariah Carey Causes Emotions: 4-4½ stars.......2006-07-26

    As Mariah Carey released her second album in 1991, an enormous pressure laid on her shoulders to follow up the success of her debut album. Despite the fact that sales of Emotions did not reach the same level as Mariah Carey, it still manage to do extremely well, selling over a whopping 10 million copies. Not bad for a sophomore album!

    The title-track Emotions was released to audience as the lead single, providing listeners with a contagious pop beat. The song displays Mariah's high pitch notes and awesome background vocals which include Trez Lorenz and David Cole. And You Don't Remember is a superb ballad where Mariah's pleading voice belts out how her lover does not remember the love, they shared. The chorus is a delight to listen too - simply wonderful. My favourite song on the album is up next; the splendid Can't Let Go. It is no wonder that many consider it among Mariah's best ballads to date. Released as a single, the groovy Make It Happen got stuck at the no.2 position, I recall. However, the teasingly song is a wonderful treat. The overall message of the song: You should never give up, work hard and your dreams will come true in the end. If It's Over, a collaboration between Mariah and Carole King, has a taunt of a jazzy mood to it. Mariah Carey belts out the chorus powerfully. Once again, I prefer the Unplugged version - however, this is purely a matter of taste.

    You're So Cold starts of with Mariah's praticing her vocal cords, functioning as a build-up to the actual song. The lyrics are a tad annoying, yet the song is still quite joyous. Albums tend to get weaker at the end, which is also the case with Emotions. To Be Around You, Till The End of Time and The Wind are likeable songs, however they do not hold up well against the rest of the album's excellent songs. The ballad-like So Blessed is another highlight of mine. The dreamy melody culminates with the more aggressive chorus especially the belting of the words ''You are my heart'' followed by the softer ''My everthing'''.

    Emotions is one of Mariah Carey's best studio-albums, in my opinion. The combination of brilliant pop ballads and excellent up-tempo songs are clearly present on the album. If you are a big fan of Mariah's poppier songs or crafted pop songs in general, Emotions will surely be a safe bet. The only complaint I have with the album is that some of the material is a tad weak compared to the brilliant songs, which are to be found on Emotions; however, this is hardly abnormal. Emotions is a very solid effort and a better album than Mariah's debut.

    my fave song is "Emotions" my other one is "Make it Happen". my mom jams to emotions in the car,also Fantasy,Open Arms,and Always be my baby from "Daydream - Mariah's cd in 1995", she also sings WE BELONG TOGETHER (2005). My mom only likes mariah's old songs. mostly open arms and vision of love.
    and half of the songs 1998-present

    5 out of 5 stars Fantastic.......2006-02-18

    Mariah Carey burst onto the music scene with her fantastic self-titled debut album, and followed it up with her second album "Emotions". Essentially "Emotions" is in the same mould as her first album - beautiful vocals, heartfelt lyrics and an emotional connection with every songs.
    Standouts in this album include:
    "Emotions" - a good dancing track that features Mariah's piercing vocals.
    "Can't Let go" - a beautiful ballad. One of Mariah's best songs
    "Make it Happen" - A description of Mariah's life prior to becoming a superstar. Very catchy and uplifting
    "The wind" - Very last track of the album. Mournful, breathtaking vocals combined with Mariah's sombre voice. Truly Phenomenal
    Emotions is a truly magnificent album, featuring a wonderful collection of songs, each one a true delight to listen to.
