Rockin!, January 12, 2004
This review is from: What Are You Lookin at (Audio CD)
This album is one of the best 1999 albums I've heard so far. I don't really wanna rate the songs, but I will tell about them. Of course, we all know "In a dream" which was a real radio hit in the 90's, and it has that R&B and disco pop sound. And I think I've heard "When I'm gone" on the radio once, even though most people really didn't hear it, it was once on PST (103.5 radio) or the disco pop radio. It has a fast and catchy beat. Some of us also heard "In a dream (1:00 AM mix)" on the remix radio station, and I thought WOW another good make of Rockell's song. I also heard "Can't we try" on the radio, first I thought it sounded like Rockell's voice and it was, because when the song was over they said "That was Rockell's hit "Can't we try." And then, a couple of weeks later, I went to a CD store and I found Rockell's CD, it was the last pair because all the other CD stores I couldn't find Rockell's CD ANYWHERE, so it was real popular in the 90's and I bought it right away. When I listened to it, I listened to it for 6 hours! Rockell has real catchy songs, and "In a dream" and "When I'm gone" are my most favorite songs on the album, and the rest of the album is great too. Please, I hope my reveiw helped and to Rockell haters, I'm sorry but I love Rockell's music too much! I hope Rockell never retires, I hope she keeps making good pop music over and over, cause no matter what I'll keep listening to it! Rockell is very talented, and so what if most of her songs are remakes like Jossett's version, well I think Rockell sounded a lil better in her version. Hope my reveiw helped, and when you listen to this album you'll know its worth it and your definetly going to give this album 5 stars!

A Stunning Debut., April 7, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: What Are You Lookin at (Audio CD)
Rockell, unlike Britney Spears, CAN sing. And so what if most of the songs on this album are remakes? I'm only 15 so I've never even heard any of the originals- therefore these songs sound new to me. Here's a review:
1. When I'm Gone- This song is fast and it has a great chorus- a very strong song.
2. Can't We Try (Duet With Collage)- This is one of the best duets I've ever heard.
3. Runaway With Me- This is a very plain song, but a very good one with a good beat.
4. In A Dream- This is the best song on the album- who doesn't like this one?
5. Show Me The Way- This is another great song with a faster pace and good chorus.
6. Love Won't Let Me Wait- This is a very slow, oldies sounding song but Rockell does a great song with it.
7. Take Me Higher- This song is very plain too, with Rockell moaning and groaning the whole way through it.
8. I Fell In Love- This was Rockell's first song she ever recorded and you can tell that her voice has gotten stronger since this song. Nevertheless, it's a great song.
9. Dream Boy- Dream Girl (Duet With Collage)- Another duet with Collage, but a good one.
10. In A Dream (1:00 AM Mix)- Just as good as the Original Mix, but with a faster pace.
11. I'll Be There- This song has a fast beat to it, but not AS fast as some of the other songs. Rockell still sings her head off, though.
Overall, this is a great dance/freestyle cd with cool beats, fun lyrics AND with a great singer. So, buy it, I'm sure you'll like it.
