This review is from: Really Love to See You Tonight / Could It Be Magic (Audio CD)

OK. Only 2 songs, 2 versions of each: "I'd Really Love to See You Tonight" and "Could it Be Magic," BUT, I absolutely LOVE them! They are super and extended versions. They are soooo HOT! I mean, I was driving and had to pull over and get out the fire extinguisher!!! (No. Not for the engine. For ME!)

Alright. Maybe I exagerated a wee bit, but they really are 4 great tracks. I downloaded the CD this morning to my Gizmo (MP3 or whatever it's called) and danced all over the kitchen. It was like an aerobic workout. I blasted it in the car later, on the way to a friend's jewelry party and it just ROCKED as I blew down the interstate. Then I used it about 6 pm when I did my power walk. (Down 57 lbs!) Was great for all 3 occassions.

Most people would probably not like it because it's only 2 songs, but for me it's heaven. Track 3 is 4:48 minutes. This first version of "Could it Be Magic" is also on one of my other Manilow CDs. It's an upbeat version. It's on "Manilow Greatest Hits--The Platinum Collection" album. That's the album with the 8 fast songs/"The Beat" first, then lists "The Ballads" second. (Great album--19 songs) The 2nd version, track 4 (7:28 minutes) of "Could it Be Magic" is more Club-Mix. It's hot and heavy, but they are both great!

By the process of elimination, that means that tracks 1 and 2 are "I'd Really Love to See You Tonight". Track 2 is 11:09 minutes long and is hot as Hades (Hades is Hell, if you didn't know it)! Track 1 is 9:31 minutes long and is even hotter! Both are club-mixes. I could dance to this album all night long without keeling over. Total time on CD is a hair over 32 minutes, 32:16 actually.

I love Manilow music; I love a heavy club beat; and I love these 2 songs--and that's what this album is. And I got it "Dirt Cheap." Personally, I love the longer versions, too. (I KNOW I'll be hearing this CD in my sleep tonight. I've been playing it all day!)

If I was Barry, I'd release these versions on future CDs, mixed in with other songs.

And, to those of you who thought that Manilow could only do elevator music---P-t-t-t-h!
