Some Great Tracks, May 5, 2000
The hardest thing for a person to do is to make them eat their words. I might have to do that here.Samantha Fox's "Just One Night" does in fact have some songs that are a snooze, which I stated in a review for "21st Century Fox", but there are also some great highlights. "Just One Night", the song, is an ok ballad with a few quircks at the end as her and her love intrest joke around about his "problems". Cute and sexy. "Don't Cry Wolf" is a great upbeat dance number. Maybe the best on the set. "What You See Is What You Get" is a good little rock number, which the Foxy one aims for few of here with duds like "Pleasure Zone". "Spirit Of America" is a track with guitars that rocks. Who knew the British Bombshell was red, white and blue? By far the best track is "Nothing You Can Do, Nothing You Can Say", the almost tearful ballad with pop and rock grooves not to mention background singers that are not being overused for once on the album (as they are in the awful rap version of "Another Woman (Too Many People)"). Awesome vocals and also cheers to Sam for cowriting the best track on the album, and the only one truly worht shelling out the dough for it. "Hurt Me! Hurt Me!" is also a good track with a lots of potentail and a funny stroy with Sam in the club and Full Froce trying to get into her pants, "But The Pants Stay On". All and all a good listing of some songs and a few hard rocking duds and dance numbers that jsut don't click like "Saving It Up". But enjoyable for it's highlights. PS For a good version of "Another Woman", try on of the Greatest Hits Sets.
