5.0 out of 5 stars 5 stars for the VOICE, September 27, 2002

By 

KEVIN HAYDEN (MILLBURY, MA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Turn to Me (Audio CD)

Here we go again...another young singer with a voice that is world class..however, with songs that do not give her the oppurtunity to really get the respect and admiration that she deserves. Vanessa Amorosi is an unbelievable talent with a voice that can put Patti LaBelle, Tina Arena, even Celine on edge. Vanessa is still young which is evident in the less than inspiring pop/dance sound that she sings over. The song selection on the whole is just mediocre. If it weren't for the voice I would've passed on the this collection. There are some really good songs however...For instance "Tent by the Sea" a song that Vanessa wrote is actually a wonderful song with an expressive even intimate vocal. "Heroes Live Forever" the songs from the SYDNEY SUMMER OLYMPICS 2000 is gigantic. The vocal performance is one of the most impressive examples of pure vocal power and emotion I have ever heard with a closing note that she holds for a mere 25 seconds!! Vanessa Amorosi should break out of the teen/pop sound and sing more mature songs with a more organic production so that voice can shine even brighter.
Check this CD out for the singing alone...the songs are "good", at best, not great, yet the voice is PHENOMANAL!

5.0 out of 5 stars Feature Packed CD!, November 27, 2001

If you haven't discovered Vanessa Amorosi that's too bad because you're missing out on great music! No other singer has made me go out and by import versions of the same album just to get more songs -- now there is this cd with TWO music videos and remixes and new songs, I was so excited to stumble upon it, I didn't know there was a new album out. Since Amazon has not yet got the track listing, here it is:

Turn To Me
Steam
Rise Up
Take Me As I Am (new!)
Every Time I Close My Eyes
Tent By The Sea (new!)
Get Here (new!)
Sun's Up (new!)
By My Side (new!)
Heroes Live Forever (Olympic Anthem)
Turn To Me (Alternative Version) (bonus)
Rise Up (Alternative Version) (bonus)
Absolutely Everybody (UK Mix) (bonus)
Have A Look (UK Video Enhanced)
Shine (UK Video Enhanced)
Power (Oz Out Takes Enhanced)

The only other place to get "heroes live forever" is on the german import single "have a look" or the olympiad cd, and if you live in the US as I do you'll love to see more music videos from Ms. Amorosi, this cd is totally worth it, if you search for her other albums you may have a chance to hear some song clips and trust me, that's all it will take to get you hooked! :) I have a varied taste in music (from iron maiden to alanis morissette to the corrs) but most of all I appreciate talent and you'll notice that Ms. Amorosi has a great voice and on top of that she writes most of her own stuff, enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally Another Great Talent Who Has A New Creative Voice!, April 13, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Turn to Me (Audio CD)

It is so wonderful to see another great talent. I would love to see Vanessa hit North America with a bang. Her hit from her first album was released in North America (Absolutely Everybody)but she hasn't gotten too much more recognition beyond that. Out of all the young stars, I must admit, this young singer has what it takes. Her vocal range is outstanding! You thought Mariah Carey had it, well let me welcome you to another amazing talent. I think Mariah has new competition out there, especially with the HUGE vocal range Vanessa has. I also think she has the energy and talent of Celine Dion. Whether or not Vanessa has claimed her stake in North America, hang tight, I am sure you will hear her name mentioned, in the time to come!

So nice to hear a amazing new talent!!!
