5.0 out of 5 stars
Absolutely breathtaking, classic Enigma, October 19, 2001
This review is from: Turn Around (Audio CD)
Being a huge Enigma fan, I couldn't wait for their greatest hits compilation to come out to hear their new song "Turn Around" so when I found a copy of the song I immediately bought it. "Turn Around" is a beautifully haunting song which simply made me stopped in my tracks. It is a gorgeous song, of course any song that Enigma puts out is amazing. The Nothern Lights Club Mix was excellent. It added an uptempo beat to this normally subdued song. The chilled club mix of "Gravity of Love" (perhaps my all time favorite Enigma song) is awesome. It's different but I like it. This remix of "Gravity of Love" would be perfect on a chill out compilation. For the moment "Turn Around" is the appetizer that will have to keep me satisfied until the release of the group's greatest hits cd "Love Sensuality Devotion".

Classic Enigma with a poppier sound, October 26, 2001
This review is from: Turn Around (Audio CD)
"Turn Around" is one of the new tracks off the group's greatest album. I knew I would like it the moment I spotted the cd single in my local record store. The song itself is a bit more accessible in the vein of "Beyond the Invisible" and "Gravity of Love". The vocals were outstanding as usual. The Northern Lights Club Mix is excellent. I can imagine hearing the remix in nightclubs. The Chilled Club Mix for "Gravity of Love" is great too. The infamous sample of "O Fortuna" is more subdued than in the original mix which is more bombastic. This new mix of "Gravity of Love" is a perfect afterhours song to listen to after a heavy night of partying, not to mention an addition to any chill out compilation cd. I like the addition of the multimedia track for "Turn Around" because seeing an Enigma video on tv is about as likely as coming face to face with Bigfoot or the Loch Ness Monster.

"TurnAround" is a kind of "LSD (Love Sensuality Devotion)", September 23, 2001
This review is from: Turn Around (Audio CD)
"TurnAround", Enigma's latest single, will be featured in the "Enigma Best" Album called "Love Sensuality Devotion". In some aspects, Enigma's "TurnAround" is a sum up of ALL 4 of the Enigma albums into one song, however, when included in the "Love Sensuality Devotion" album, it prepares the listener to be overtaken by the "sounds of Enigma" and provides somewhat of an entrance to the beginning of the Enigma universe, which is, in fact, "Love Sensuality Devotion". Enigma's TurnAround is very up beat, but the robotisynth, as one may call it, is very sensual at times, but that holds with much of the Engima universe. "TurnAround" features lyrics sung by Michael Cretu (creator, founder, and producer of Enigma!!), aswell as the "voice of Enigma", Sandra Cretu, whispering some phrases in the background at some parts. In addition to the "TurnAround" radio edit, there is a VERY sensual club remix of "Gravity of Love", and a club remix of "Turn Around". The "TurnAround: Northern Lights Club Remix" will be featured on the "Love Sensuality Devotion" - Remixes" album which follows the release date with the Engima Best "Love Sensuality Devotion" album. The "Love Sensuality Devotion" remix album features ALL of the Enigma remixes featured in past released singles. Although, "TurnAround" is an outline of the all past Enigma's, I feel that it is a marker for a "TurnAround" and the introduction of a NEW TYPE of aural Enigma. It is just my theory, but whatever Engima plans for the future, I will be listening!!
