4.0 out of 5 stars The Return of an Artist, November 9, 2005

I was very excited and intrigued to discover that Agnetha Faltskog had decided to release a new album. Particularly after her "self-exile" of several years from the world at large. She had made such an important and worthwhile contribution to the world of music as a member of ABBA. It was an unfortunate reality that her previous solo works were not altogether strong or even overly interesting releases. In my opinion though, this latest album (My Colouring Book) redeems all of Ms. Faltskog's post-ABBA endeavors. Here you will find a mature and confident songtress still in complete artistic control of her nothing-less-than-glorious capabilities. She sounds GREAT. The choices of songs and in fact, her dedication to all the artists that inspired her early on, is more than appropriate. This is EXACTLY the kind of album she should be producing at this time of her life. The Lady has paid her dues and done more than enough for her adoring fans. Now she need do nothing more than record an album of songs simply because she can. And beautifully too. The dance remix singles are fun also, and I hope they are being enjoyed in clubs all over the world. Really, the only thing that would have made this album as close to perfect as possible would have been a duet with Anni-Frid (Frida) Lyngstad, the other half of the beautiful singing duo of ABBA.

5.0 out of 5 stars AN INSTANT MASTERPIECE! SIMPLE, NAKED, AND BEAUTIFUL!, March 28, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: My Colouring Book (Audio CD)

Deliciously retro, yet current. THIS WOMAN CAN SING! I was lucky to hear this album before its release. Every song is a TREASURE! Delicate, fragile, expressive, with melodies from the heart (romantic, sweet, classic!) that songwriters do not write anymore these days. Apparently (from what I heard), these are the songs that inspired Miss Faltskog in her teenage years. The way she sings these songs is UNEXPLAINABLE. Her voice is NAKED, TRUE, HONEST! A great choice of songs. An album to last a lifetime.

4.0 out of 5 stars Breath taking, November 22, 2005

after 17 years of not making music or even listening to music. i am amazed this great singer still has it. She has been my favourite singer for about 3 years. Her sense of style in music makes this cd a great gift to the ears. the songs she has picked for this album were emotional, but of course they were still great. her best songs she has sung were of heart break and emotion. so I think she picked the right songs for her voice.

GREAT JOB AGNETHA!!!
and thank you for this album for it means a lot to me and many other fans around the world.
