Sam's Best So Far, May 29, 2000
I first got the Japanese import of this since I didn't think itwould *ever* be released in the US. Let me tell you, the $$$ I shelled out was worth it, and if you're getting it here cheaper, you're making a great steal! This is Sam's best work and her voice has really matured. This album shows her making a transition to a house/dance style of music. "Just A Dream" and "The Reason Is You" show Sam's sultry side and dramatic vocals. Sure to become Sammy classics with "I Wanan Have Some Fun" and "I Surrender." "I Dream In Colours" is very trancey and some may not like it, but it's interesting and a great beat. Hello X! *L* "Deeper" & "Where Is The Love?" are more club hopping hits to be that make you want to get out of your seat and shake your thang! "Love Makes You" is, in my opinion, Samantha's best song *ever*. It's so sweet, inspiring, and all-out Sam. A classic in my book. "Let Me Be Free" & "Wasted NRG" are more dance tunes needing to be heard in clubs throughout the world - they are Sam in top form and great voice. "Say What You Want" & "Do You Want Me?" are very cool. Sam calls "Say" a "Love making song" so you can figure that out..."Want Me" is a very cool pop song and keeps the CD going. "Boundaries of Love" & "Watching You" are ok. "Boundaries" is good once in awhile, but can get annoying. "Watching" is the one flaw in this CD. It's a total album-filler, and at over 6-minutes, it seems it will never end. "Perhaps" is a Latin-dance cover of the Doris Day cover and does it proud. This version definitely defeats versions by Cake and Geri Halliwell. Ms. Day should be proud. Over all, this is by far Sam's best work, and you shouldn't miss out on this excellent set!
