5.0 out of 5 stars Why wasn't this a hit album?, November 13, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Carole Bayer Sager (Audio CD)

With all the bad pop music out there, and with Carol Bayer Sager's reputation as one of the priemier songwriters, I have always wondered why her two albumns didn't become hits. Both have great songs and everyone I play them for wants copies because they also love her voice. Finally, it appears they have been reissued; but how many will buy them at this price? My wife tells me it's worth it to her, so I'm one! I hope one day everyone once again will get a chance to hear Carol Bayer Sager songs performed by Carol Bayer Sager.

5.0 out of 5 stars You've Gotta Put Yourself Back In That Spot, May 28, 2003

This review is from: Carole Bayer Sager (Audio CD)

If you are familiar with this album, then you know it will carry you back to an uncomfortable young stage of your life where you thought you knew a lot, but you actually did not. There was someone you wanted to meet, but you were as shy as a violet. Later, after you managed to forge a relationship with that person, something (developing wisdom?) told you it really might be best to leave while you're in love, before you forget the meaning of the word -- and after things cratered, you seriously entertained thoughts of being dumb enough to steal away again.

If you were that age when you first heard it, you know it's a tear-jerker left over from those times that were so tender and meaningless, though heavy with the potential for romantic errors and worse. Save up the [$$$]and buy it, as an anthem to the relief of having all that inexperience behind you. Lessons learned.

5.0 out of 5 stars Carole's Uncanny Ability to Speak to the Heart..., March 20, 2005

This review is from: Carole Bayer Sager (Audio CD)

I stumbled across this LP in a used bookstore in Texas several years ago. Recognizing Carole's name crediting many, many songs that I have enjoyed listening to by other artists, I thought I would give it a listen to get a better sense of her own interpretation of her music.

Boy, I'm glad I did! What I found was music that speaks to the heart. Some of it, I found very difficult to listen to because it evokes such strong feelings. Profound ones at that, from the cautiously heartbreaking lyrics and music of "Aces" to the zaniness of "You're Moving Out Today", to the uncertainty and timid sound of "Shy as a Violet", there is something for everyone who holds the magic of Carole's prolific music career close to them.

Suprisingly, I have found it available on CD...and I HIGHLY recommend it to anyone who respects the power of great, emotive music with heart.
