5.0 out of 5 stars Dayne's Best, August 16, 2001

By 

Chris S. "cscotts" (atlanta, ga United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Taylor Dayne - Greatest Hits (Audio CD)

One of the greatest dance pop singers to come out of the eighties was Long Island's Taylor Dayne. Possessed of a voice that could literally wipe the floor with the competition(only Whitney Houston matched her vocally), she churned out a string of dance-pop and ballad hits, starting with 'Tell It To My Heart'. This collection is a sterling sample of some of Dayne's finest moments, with 'I'll Be Your Shelter' and 'Heart Of Stone' giving wonderfully opposing ends of the spectrum to which Dayne could easily gravitate. It also contains the essential tracks from her mediocre '93 set SOUL DANCING, including her exquisite reworking of Barry White's 'Can't Get Enough Of Your Love'. It's too bad that her label seemingly gave up on her after that project--that single and 'Send Me A Lover' should have been huge and furthered her cause, but instead were pretty much met with indifference. Nonetheless, this is essential listening for fans of superior eighties pop(also noteworthy are her '89 album CAN'T FIGHT FATE and last project NAKED WITHOUT YOU). Highly recommended.

3.0 out of 5 stars Her Greatest Hits, August 8, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Taylor Dayne - Greatest Hits (Audio CD)

Driven by Ric Wake's production, Taylor Dayne emerged as a top performer in the late eighties. Her soulful voice soared over sparkling pop songs, programmed to become hits. With a careful selection of club friendly dance and consumable ballads Taylor was soon catapulted into stardom. Her albums `Tell It To My Heart' and `Can't Fight Fate' both went double platinum and spawned eight US top ten hits - a remarkable achievement.

It can safely be said that this `greatest hits' set was issued much too soon. The compilation has little to offer to those who own some of her earlier albums, as there are no new recordings included. The `new' tracks are a remix of `Tell It To My Heart' + plus two remixes of `Say A Prayer', a song taken from her third album `Soul Dancing'. The resulting 11 tracks are those `greatest hits'.

The album includes five ballads, most notably `I'll Always Love You' and `Love Will Lead You Back'. `I'll Be Your Shelter' and `Heart Of Stone' are also still pleasant pop songs. `Send Me A Lover' is one of her less known songs, which is a shame, because it's a stunning composition and Taylor is much more in control of her vocal instrument - making it the strongest ballad on here. It is arguably the strongest moment of this collection.

Yet, Taylor is also known for her radio-friendly popdance. `Tell It To My Heart' dominates, both in the original version and the even more uptempo T-empo remix. Other songs, such as `Prove Your Love', are perhaps a bit too much throwaway pop, . Pleasant exceptions are the hardhitting `Ill Wait' and her credible rendition of Barry White's `Can't Get Enough Of Your Love'.

Taylor Dayne's `Greatest Hits' is a pleasant album, which brings back memories of her glory days. It's still a premature compilation which doesn't add a lot if you already her other albums. However, if you don't, this release is the perfect document to those irresistible hits of the past.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best singers of the 80's., April 25, 2003

This review is from: Taylor Dayne - Greatest Hits (Audio CD)

It's almost impossible not to remember Taylor Dayne. She released several hits in the 80's and this cd it's a proof of that.
Some of her biggest songs are her Top 10 singles; "Tell it to my heart", "With every beat of my heart", "Don't rush me", "Say a prayer" and her #1 "Love will lead you back".
She also had several Grammy nominations and 2 of her albums were Platinum x2.
One of my favorite songs in this album is the cover from Barry White "Can't get enough from your love".

I strongly recommend this cd. It's been a long time but I still enjoy Taylor's music.

If you like her music you'll also like Anastacia, who has her style and voice.
