Companies try to make good compilations but never sucseed. This one did. I own the first one and sure there's about five songs on it I enjoy but this one went off the map. Powerful talented artists at their finest. The best mellow and pop women's music of the year all on one CD. I won't get into the artists themselves but I wanted to mention that most of these songs have been featured on "Dawson's Creek", another bonus.

There is some pretty music on here. All of the songs are mellow and beautifully writen and sang. The Tracy Chapman song really breaks the mood of the whole CD though and I think should have been omitted.

This is the CD that started it for me. A brilliant CD that got me hooked from the start and got me into singers like Amanda Marshall, Chantal Kreviazuk and Faith Hill who are not well known in the U.K. as well as more well known artists from around the world. I now have all the Women and Songs CDs and have a wider appreciation of Canadian Female Vocal music. A must have CD.

This is a terrific album of songs from some of the best female artists of today. Also included, that will be of interest to Sarah McLachlan fans, is a rare recording of "Unchained Melody", which was only available before on the album "Pine Ridge-An Open Letter to Alan Rock-Songs for Leonard Peltier" which was produced for the Leonard Peltier Defense Committee, Canada. That song alone makes this a worthwhile collection to own. The other songs range from rock, such as Sheryl Crow's "Strong Enough", country...Faith Hill's "This Kiss" and blues...Tracy Chapman's "Give me one reason". This is a great album and highly recommended.

Just what we need: another compilation of women's music. I love female singer/songwriters, but this collection is incredibly boring. Sarah McLachlan sounds beautiful on Unchained Melody but it will most likely put people to sleep. I Know by Sarah Sleen is beautiful as well, but overall this collection is boring.

THIS IS DEFINATELY A GREAT CD. NO MATTER YOUR MUSIC INTERESTS, YOU'LL SURELY FIND THIS CD TO BE SATISFYING !!

This is a great collection of songs and artists. For me, this is a CD that I can listen to over and over again.

This collection is sure to catch your ears, to get your feet tapping and your voice reaching to join in--exquisite choices make this a very worthwhile purchase. Something for everyone!
