5.0 out of 5 stars Music does not get better than this!, August 4, 2006

This review is from: Baby Come to Me: Best of (Audio CD)

Regina Belle is one of those amazing singers who has been so stellar for so many years, but it was not until the massive success of the song "Baby Come To Me" that a wide audience was exposed to her magic. She never reached that pinacle again because her amazing appeal is not the fast food that most crave.

If you are a fan, I need not say anymore as I am preaching to the choir. If you happen to find this listing by error or because you were guided to it based on another purchase that you have made think of Regina as the very best of Anita, Patti (both LaBelle and Austin), Gladys but entirely original. Regina has a powerhouse vocal range that is so powerful yet equally stunning when quiet and controlled. She is a child of interpretative singers so that when she sings you listen as she tells you what she feels.

This package is the best that you'll find if you only want one release as it has all her most known/popular songs. I have bought most of her releases as her voice, like say a Luther Vandross, can move you and remind you of the power of music. While most who may not even have heard "Baby Come To Me" must have heard it least "A Whole New World" fromDisney's "Alladin" which is a great song but only skims the surface as songs like "If I Could", "This Is Love", "Make It Like It Was" and great remakes of "Didn't I" and Teddy's "Love TKO" really show you Regina's range. Many others have tried to tackle "Love TKO" (even Hall & Oates, who I really like) but Regina's version is the only one that I heard that stands out among the many who have taken a shot at it.

If you like big voices with masterful control, buy this without hesitation. 5 easily earned stars. Keep on singing Regina!

5.0 out of 5 stars Does not disappoint, October 13, 2007

I recently saw Regina in concert which prompted me to buy her CD. Needless to say, like her performance, her CD did not disappoint!! Her vocal skills coupled with beautifully written lyics and music combine to provide a great listening experience. I am amazed that Regina has not gained more recognition as she is truly one of the great voices of her generation along with Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey & Anita Baker. Definitely a must buy for any fan of really good music.

5.0 out of 5 stars UNFAIRLY UNDERATED SINGER!, September 27, 2007

This review is from: Baby Come to Me: Best of (Audio CD)

With all the so-so mega millionaire singers in the industry, it shouldn't,but does, amaze me that this singer, who can belt a song out, the likes of Aretha (but smoother), Etta James (but more polished), Nancy Wilson (but more powerful); is so unfairly overlooked. Bad management perhaps?

I don't know but whatever the reasons this woman's career didn't escalate like Celine Dion's is beyond reasoning. Her recording of "If I Could" (initially sung beautifully by Fancy Nancy herself), alone, is reason enough to purchase this cd. "So Many Tears" and "Baby Come to Me" are close favoritesBaby Come to Me: The Best of Regina Belle.
