5.0 out of 5 stars Lena is as great as ever!!!, June 27, 2001

Val - See all my reviews

This review is from: Being Myself (Audio CD)

Lena Horne is one of the finest singers around today. One of the few original entertainers who sing classic pop and jazz. Only Rosemary Clooney, Tony Bennett, and Anita O'Day who were all in her league are still performing. This her most recent effort is spectacular. Lena is still going strong her voice pure and beautiful, her style still as sassy and stylish as ever, and she's more loose and improvisational now, than ever. This cd is recommeded to fans of Lena as well as people who have enough class to get it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A National Treasure, October 1, 2005

Steve Shanahan (San Francisco, CA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Being Myself (Audio CD)

We are all so lucky to have Lena Horne in our lives. She paved the way for so many other brilliant artists like herself. This is a woman who can teach us how to live with her phrasing and subtlety. She makes you laugh and cry at the same time. This is a simply beautiful CD displaying her mature richness and grace. May she live on and produce similar music when she gets to be over 100!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Short, but sweet
Don't listen to the few negative reviews. As you can see the majority reviews are positive. Does she sound like she did when she was 40, no. How about 60 no. Read more
