Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

An audio companion to the book of the same title by bestselling author Deepak Chopra, Grow Younger, Live Longer is a collaboration between the doctor and Dave Stewart, best known as half of the Eurythmics. Grow Younger finds Chopra reciting centuries-old Indian poetry to Stewart's worldbeat compositions. Ranging from sensual and undulating to jubilant and atmospheric, the sound of voice and instruments blending sets these beautiful pieces in an entirely new context. "Where Children Meet" captures a recorded phone call between the two men, wherein Chopra recites the piece by memory, and Stewart later loops the vocal amid a sea of bells, metal percussion, drums, strings, and guitars. This collection is highly recommended for fans of Chopra's Gift of Love. --Paige La Grone

4.0 out of 5 stars Birthdays always inspire me to try to grow younger!, June 13, 2002

By	Neal C. Reynolds (Indianapolis, Indiana) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Grow Younger, Live Longer (Audio CD)

Well, I don't believe any guarantees come with this CD. Be that as it may, this is a good CD to listen to when completely relaxed and even to sleep to since I'm sure the words will still be speaking to your subconscious.

While Dave Stewart provides the music, I don't much imagine that it will impress Eurythmics fans. This is more for new age fans, new age in both music and philosophy.

Deepak Chopra is mistrusted by some who see him strictly as a pop guru. I see him more as a dedicated teacher to those who will listen. This combination of words and music can be like seeds scattered over the soil. If you see to it that your mind is like fertile soil, you can be enriched through repeated listening to this. On the other hand, if your mind is resistant, this cd would be useless to you.

It's up to you.

3.0 out of 5 stars Pretty disappointing, all in all, October 13, 2001

By	Guardian of the Zen Sea "Indigo" (Looking after the sun and surf) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Grow Younger, Live Longer (Audio CD)

After the wonderful CD "Gift of Love" with Deepak Chopra and friends, I was looking forward to hearing this colaboration with Dave Stewart, of the Eurythmics. Overall the CD feels as if the two artists were never in the recording studio together, maybe not even in the same town. The music and the spoken word just don't seem to match very well. On one cut, the poetry reading by Deepak Chopra is nothing more than a recording of a telephone call!!! Unfortunately, that poem is the best one on the CD, and it is hard to make out the words. It almost feels as if the spoken word was an afterthought to the music. If you listen to the music on its own, it is not bad at all, but together they just don't work very well. The music is very rockin electronic, and loud. The voice is, well, Depak Chopra, which is neither rockin nor loud......

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice chill out record, December 3, 2001

By	"lemonboy" (London United Kingdom) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Grow Younger, Live Longer (Audio CD)

I really enjoyed this record, it has a lazy, chilled out feel to the music and sounded far more contempory than I'd expected, mixing samples, beats and poetry. Some of the poetry is very beautiful although it's weaved in with the music with some lines repeating so you don't always get an impression of the poem as a whole, I think the CD would act as a great companion to the book of the poems, but it also works as nice chill out record in it's own right.
