Finally Another Great Talent Who Has A New Creative Voice!

It is so wonderful to see another great talent. I would love to see Vanessa hit North America with a bang. Her hit from her first album was released in North America (Absolutely Everybody)but she hasn't gotten too much more recognition beyond that. Out of all the young stars, I must admit, this young singer has what it takes. Her vocal range is outstanding! You thought Mariah Carey had it, well let me welcome you to another amazing talent. I think Mariah has new competition out there, especially with the HUGE vocal range Vanessa has. I also think she has the energy and talent of Celine Dion. Whether or not Vanessa has claimed her stake in North America, hang tight, I am sure you will hear her name mentioned, in the time to come!

So nice to hear a amazing new talent!!!

Turn To Me is a feel good song

Vanessa's title song, Turn to Me is a great feel good song. (And you should also watch the music video that goes with the song - it's great!) There are a few songs that are on her previous CD as well as this one, but, it is some of the best songs that are repeated, so that okay. I would recommend this CD to anyone who likes both up-beat dance music and slower music.

5 stars for the VOICE

Here we go again...another young singer with a voice that is world class..however, with songs that do not give her the oppurtunity to really get the respect and admiration that she deserves. Vanessa Amorosi is an unbelievable talent with a voice that can put Patti LaBelle, Tina Arena, even Celine on edge. Vanessa is still young which is evident in the less than inspiring pop/dance sound that she sings over. The song selection on the whole is just mediocre. If it weren't for the voice I would've passed on the this collection. There are some really good songs however...For instance "Tent by the Sea" a song that Vanessa wrote is actually a wonderful song with an expressive even intimate vocal. "Heroes Live Forever" the songs from the SYDNEY SUMMER OLYMPICS 2000 is gigantic. The vocal performance is one of the most impressive examples of pure vocal power and emotion I have ever heard with a closing note that she holds for a mere 25 seconds!! Vanessa Amorosi should break out of the teen/pop sound and sing more mature songs with a more organic production so that voice can shine even brighter.
Check this CD out for the singing alone...the songs are "good", at best, not great, yet the voice is PHENOMANAL!
