4.0 out of 5 stars 21st Century Angel, November 21, 2005

I got Sam's new album, "Angel With An Attitude" in the mail yesterday and I have to say - it is definitely one of her best albums. Right up there with "21st Century Fox" and "I Wanna Have Some Fun." She co-wrote all thirteen tracks, which makes the album very personal, and I think that's why I liked it so much.

The music is really nothing new in the spectrum, but it is something she's not really done yet (at least not full blown). Almost every track is trancey or dance-oriented, but not the same as the Euro-dance style of "21st Century Fox." This isn't as in your face; it's more laid back. The lyrics pack a wollop and the track "Breathe" even made me cry (which is very rare for a song to do). It sounds to me, almost like a response to her track "Even In The Darkest Hours."

The other main highlight for me was the song "Destined To Be." It's a very straight-forward dance track and Sam sounds great. This is defintely her best album vocally. The only song I don't really like at all is the bonus track "Time." It sounds like nothing else on the album and comes across as very dated. Otherwise, the other twelve tracks are great.

The title track is very good, but not what I was expecting based on the sound clip from Sam's homepage. It's better than that! "To Be Heard" is my next-to-last favorite song (just a notch above "Time"). With it's cheesy lyrics (cheesy even for Sam), and her rhyming "horses" with "voices, " it's all just in bad taste, imo.

Other tracks such as "I Give Myself To You, " "The Power" (not a cover of the song by Amy Grant which was covered by Cher), and "Dreams Unfold" are all similar in nature. Very revealing lyrically, with a good beat and strong vocals from our Ms. Fox. There's even a nod to her bisexuality in the song "You and Me" (which is not the song from the 'All Around The World' DVD) when she sings, "Another lover you could choose to be/A question mark about your sexuality." She also hooked up again with Eagle E, who rapped on the DJ Milano track 'Santa Maria', which Sam sang the vocals to, on the track "Time."

Overall, this is a cut-above most discs that have come out this year, and Sam has done some of the best work of her career. Welcome back, darlin', I've missed ya!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not bad at all. Sam Fox shines once again, December 16, 2005

Samantha Fox new CD, produced by Fox and Joe Barrucco,shines when it comes to polish quality. The reason for the four star, is that some of the tracks are very similiar in style and musical preference. But this is not a let down. Not at all. There are 13 tracks on this one, and is well worth the money, if you think this CD it`s expensive. Some tracks bring you into dance mood, some dont. Here sometimes tiny voice, fit perfect on some of the tracks. The opening track is not at here best. Angel with an attitude. But hey, lets move on to a real "goodies" with track 2 To be heard, which is a uptempo dance beat song, whit hit quality, and a great sound of "airy" syntheseisers. Sam Fox is one of the few artists who can say aaaaaaah, that will bring you what we can call "eargasm ". It`s a clever thing to put so much "air "inbetween here voice and the soundpicture. That makes here voice comes forward very clear trough the different tracks. On Track 5, The Power Sammy goes what we can call " soft heavy metal power ballad" with some fuzz on the guitars, included a more sensual and raw Foxy voice.
Many of the tracks has some similarty with ELO (Electric Light Orcestra) and a Jeff Lynne inspired symphonic sound picture. Track 9 Breathe is veeery mooody, and a great ballad with high Fox standard. Track 12 Dreams Unfold is anyway a great ballad, which put you in a relaxable mood, it has some realy hit potensial if it`s played on the radio. The funny thing is that one of the best track's on the CD is the bonus track Time, which are full of rythm and dance, that should at least kicks some ass, and Sam Fox voice register shines more. This is a realy goodys for the fan, and others too. It`s a pity that it`s not have world wide distribution, and only distributed in Canada. But as a clever buisness whoman as she certainly are, she probably nows what`s shes doing. Samantha Fox shines once again.
