5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful!, October 11, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Shades (Audio CD)

I abosolutely love this album from these four talented young ladies! There are so many shades of life. Some being emotional, some soft, and some sensuous. However, when it comes to music there are four shades that come to mind: Shannon, Danielle, Tiffanie and Monique. Their hit song "Tell Me (I'll Be Around)" is a fun, up-tempo track that flips the script on men where the ladies portray the aggressive go getters in a relationship. Blending silky smooth vocals with a sassy, hip hop attitude. "Tell Me" garnered debate for its fun, suggestive lyrics and earned the ladies their first hit ever by selling close to 200,000 singles. That's not bad for their first time out. The song "Serenade" is a lush beautiful ballad that will shower you with lyrics of love. Their chemistry is electric.
These ladies really set the tone for their self-titled debut, a well done piece of work! Make this one your next buy! You won't be disappointed!

4.0 out of 5 stars Actually Pretty Good, March 16, 2007

When this group came out, it seemed as that they had a promising future with their first single "Tell Me ( I'll Be Around), but after their second single "Serenade" you didn't hear from them again. I purchase the album last year out of curiosity, and it was pretty good for the time that it came out. If they had better marketing then they probably still be around.

I have this CD and i love it since I first purchased it in the record store during the time when it came out. I even bought the "Tell Me (I'll be Around)" on cassette single, during when it came out. i also purchased the "Serenade" single on cassette and CD. I loved the album, it's real real good. I listen to it alot. These are four talented beautiful ladies with great voices! I hope they come back with another album. Like they say in eventually "We can conquer almost anything, show the world we can be anything so the hopes and dreams of yesterday and wishes that u make today come true" That is probably my favorite song on the CD! other standout tracks are "Serenade (For You)," "Tell Me (I'll Be Around)," "I Believe," and "How Deep Is Your Love"
i highly recommend this album! You can listen to the album from start to finish without skipping any tracks! there's not one single BAD song on this album here! u get nothin but GREAT music on this one! and even a Bonus Track! what more could u ask for? GET THIS ALBUM NOW!!...
