Sheer magic,
By A Customer
This review is from: I'm Gonna Be Warm this Winter (Singin' in Japanese) (Audio CD)
Don't get the title wrong - although this CD has an English title, only two of the 20 songs on it are performed in English. The other 18 songs are sung in Japanese. I'M GONNA BE WARM THIS WINTER contains Connie's greatest Japanese hits, among them the Japanese versions of her U. S. smashes FOLLOW THE BOYS, DON'T BREAK THE HEART THAT LOVES YOU, IF MY PILLOW COULD TALK, and VACATION. There is also the Japanese version of PRETTY LITTLE BABY, her greatest hit in Japan which holds the record of all-time best selling single to this day. This CD is a real treat for every serious fan of Connie Francis, for it shows a musical side of her that is almost unknown in the U. S. and in Europe. The sound quality is excellent, and the booklet (written entirely in Japanese) shows some rare photos and record covers. Although most people won't understand a word Connie's singing, this CD is a must-have for every serious collector who wants to have more than just your usual STUPID CUPID.

ONCE AGAIN, CONNIE CAN SING ANYTHING,
By Terry D. Robertson "Terry D. Robertson" (Asheville, NC USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I'm Gonna Be Warm this Winter (Singin' in Japanese) (Audio CD)
This is second and the less of the two releases of her hits in Japanese. It contains her Americans hits overdubbed--an amazing feat when one considers she could sing in up to 13 languages. The music is familar, the lycis unintelligible unless you know the language but who cares. Connie is well loved in Japan and I personally always buy the their product because of the superior sound quality. This should be included in every serious Connie Francis collecton. Ah, so tasty!

I'm Gonna Be warm This Winter,
This review is from: I'm Gonna Be Warm this Winter (Singin' in Japanese) (Audio CD)
Is this album all in Japanese, the song listing is in English and it's not clear. It would be great to find "Roundabout" on a CD that wasn't part of a box set costing the earth. "Roundabout" and the first recording of "Love is me and Love is you" from 1965 are only available in a box set too as is the flip side of "Blue Winter" a song called "Souveniers". We are compensated for the rare appearance on a single CD album of her song "Someone Else's Boy" that was the B side of "Breaking in a Brand New Broken heart" But, there are many other songs that never made it to CD format at all. Connie Francis fans have a right to get upset. Europe's Warren Beatty and Katherine Hepburn fans are upset too, that "Love Affair" was never released as a zone 2 DVD for the UK and Europe, and neither was "Summer of 42" released for Europe either, which when you consider that the soundtrack to "Summer of 42" was composed by Michael Legrand is ironic to say the least. No wonder CD and DVD sales are falling!
