good rendition.... notas good as the original...

'take my breathe away' IS one of my favourite 80s songs of all time and quite possibly my wedding song.... berlin did a ingenious job on this song... when i found out that my gal jessica simpson was doing a remake of the song i was stoked and worried at the same time....



nobody really remade the song since it came out 20 years ago.... i love jessicas voice.... she is one of the best singers i have ever heard...



when i finally heard the song on the radio i was shocked that she did a great job with it... she took a risk and i think it worked for her.... too bad her husband nick was edited out of the song.... i think that it would have been a better song with the 2 singing a duet... but we will never know...





if you dont like jessica simpson and love the song do not buy it.... its kind of average....

Oh no!

I warn everyone please don't buy this! I didn't buy it but I had the misfortune of listening to it on the radio and I was so disappointed! How could Jessica destroy such a beautiful ballad that was sung so wonderfully by Terri Nunn of Berlin??? This is one if not the worse cover songs I've ever heard!



Jessica has a decent voice and I'm not hating her but she needs to do something good. She's got the voice, she needs to stop letting the music industry do it all for her. Maybe if she wrote her own songs and produced her own music, she'd have a bigger fan base. Her songs are really boring if you ask me except for maybe "i think i'm in love with you" with help of John Mellancamp's beat. I wonder how Berlin feels about this remake. I bet they cringe when they hear it.

This song was...

Berlin was a cool band in the eighties. "The Metro" is still one of my favorite songs. "Take my breath away" finished them off as a group and was an overbearing, schmaltzy mess back "in the day". A remake by one of the cynical "buff gold" blonde pop queens of modern times is fitting. I don't have anything against pop music, but some songs are just too much. One aspect I did like was the warbley fretless [synth?] bass. The songs only redeeming feature.
