Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
After releasing CDs of standards, Christmas songs, and contemporary Christian music, Kathie Lee Gifford dives into adult contemporary pop with Heart of a Woman. Gifford is about as review-proof as they come; you love or hate her. It's sure to be that way with this disc, which finds her breathily emoting one (occasionally Gifford-cowritten) midtempo ballad after another. Never as likably brash/obnoxious as she can be in her looser TV moments, Heart is either sickly sincere or transparently cynical, depending on your point of view. Only the listener can truly decide, though. --Rickey Wright

1.0 out of 5 stars Foghorn, foghorn, November 3, 2000

By A Customer

Singing? Blaring "Heartache heartache" like an off key foghorn is more like it.

Her twitchy awkward singing performance on late night tv made me cringe. She looked like Mick Jagger in drag with 2x4 inserted in an uncomfortable place. I thought she might be having a seizure.

And although I know this review will not be considered helpful by most people, what is the deal with people marking every negative review as "not helpful". Not helpful to whom? There were some really insightful, thoughtful but negative reviews marked as not helpful.

2.0 out of 5 stars I can't believe she sang that!, November 11, 2000

By	"vmc1" (Ohio) - See all my reviews

How do I begin, Kathie Lee please go back to Live! You are so good there and so average here. The only song that is likely to be played on top 40 is Love Never Fails. This is Pop music, very catchy but could be sang by anyone with a decent voice. Heartache, Heartache is so bad that I can't watch her perform it on one more show. She is trying to get the Celine Dion fans while also capturing the Shania Twain fans and it doesn't work. Yes she looks good for 47 but 17 she is not and all the tight jeans and no bras won't get her on the top 40 list with Heart of A Woman.

1.0 out of 5 stars This woman has no heart - or voice, November 3, 2000

By	Poipu (Chicaog, IL USA) - See all my reviews

I actually listened to the whole CD. It was a painful experience, as KathieLee has spent so much energy into the Marketing and promotion of this CD that she forgot she needed to train her voice to actually sing. All of the songs are in the same octave, she has absolutely no range, and its really embarassing (can you imagine being Frank now?) watching her on every show she can get on for self-promotion. And whats with dressing like a 14 year old? Just shows you how totally out of touch with reality overpaid and over-ego'd famous people get. Lets face it KathiLee has no heart - or voice, she just needs to stay in the spotlight.
