5.0 out of 5 stars
HOT cd from CeCe!, September 20, 2001
I have been a fan of CeCe Winans for a long long time, but this is the first solo album of hers that I've had on perpetual play since I got it. Not only are there some amazingly great songs on this album, but EVERY song is good, and the whole album is infinitely listenable. This is a CD that I LOVED the first time I heard it. Now how often can you say that happens? Not often enough, I say... CeCe's voice is great, of course, and the songs are hot, singable, danceable, and groovable. Seriously good producing on this album. Also, CeCe doesn't skirt around Christianity, but addresses it fully in songs like "Anybody Wanna Pray," "Out of My House," and "Holy Spirit Fill This Place." Just want to say that this album is on par with any of it's secular counterparts, and in fact surpasses any secular R&B albums I've heard. Faithful fans of CeCe will love this album, as her trademark voice is showcased fully (of course!) and new fans will be instantly drawn in by her voice & the music. CeCe isn't just resting on her laurels, but has obviously been working to get a group of really great songs as well as experimenting with different styles. This is definitely not "formula," but will satisfy even the most traditional of fans.

A Kid's Review
THIS CD IS A MASTERPIECE AND TRULY CAPTURES THE ESSENSE OF CECE!!! I LOVE ALL THE SONGS ON HERE AND HAVE NO COMPLAINTS!!!1.HEAVENLY FATHER- IS A PRAYER. THERE IS A LOT OF PRAYING ON THIS ALBUM AND THIS IS AN AWESOME SONG OF PRAISE!!
2.ANYBODY WANNA PRAY- IS A HIP-HOP/GOSPEL/R&B TYPE OF SONG WHICH FEATURES A GOSPEL RAP GROUP CALLED "GRITS". THIS SONG HAS A GREAT MESSAGE AND IS NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH!
3.SAY A PRAYER-IS LETTING US KNOW HOW MUCH POWER THERE IS IN PRAYER.
4.MORE THAN WHAT I WANTED -IS SHOWING HOW MUCH IN LOVE SHE IS WITH JESUS. THIS SONG TRULY SHOWS WHAT GREAT VOCALS CECE POSSESSAND WHAT SHE CAN DO WITH THE ANOINTING OF GOD.
5.LOOKING BACK AT YOU-IS A BEAUTIFUL LOVE SONG WHICH ALSO SHOWS CECE'S VOCAL TALENT. THIS SONG IS LETTING US KNOW HOW MUCH WE CAN DEPEND ON THE LORD.ONE OF THE BEST SONGS ON THE ALBUM.
6.MORE THAN JUST A FRIEND-IS A UPBEAT SONG WITH A GOOD MESSAGE TO IT.THIS IS THE TYPE OF SONG YOU LISTEN TO WHEN YOU ARE FEELING DOWN.GOD WANTS TO BE MORE THAN JUST A FRIEND!!
7.NO ONE-THIS IS THE BEST SONG ON THIS CD AND THAT IS THE TRUTH.
IT SIMPLY TALKS ABOUT HOW NO ONE COULD EVER LOVE HER LIKE JESUS.
ITS MY FAVORITE SONG ON THE ALBUM.
8.FOR LOVE ALONE-IS A SONG OF SOUL ENCOURAGEMENT. A NICE TEMPO TO IT AND ANOTHER SONG WITH A GREAT MESSAGE.
9.BRING BACK THE DAYS OF YEA AND NAY-FEATURES CECE'S BROTHER MARVIN L. WINANS. THIS SONG TALKS ABOUT THE CHANGES THAT NEED TO BE MADE IN THIS WORLD. THIS IS ANOTHER PRAYER SONG.
10.OUT MY HOUSE- IS A SONG THAT SHE IS SIMPLY TELLING THE DEVIL THAT HE IS NOT WELCOME AND TO GET OUT OF HER MIND,SOUL,SPIRIT, FAMILY, AND HOUSE. SHE WROTE THIS SONG ON A NIGHT THAT THE DEVIL WAS ATTACKING HER AND HER FAMILY. HIP-HOP/R&B RHYTHM.
11.HOLY SPIRIT COME FILL THIS PLACE-IS A SONG THAT WELCOMES THE HOLY GHOST TO HER MIND,PLACE OF WORSHIP, AND SOUL. THIS IS A SLOW SONG AND IS ONE OF THE BEST SONGS ON THE ALBUM. YOU WILL BE BLESSED BY THIS SONG.
12.IT'S GONNA GET BETTER-IS A SONG LETTING US KNOW THAT WEEPING MAY ENDURE FOR A NIGHT BUT JOY WILL COME IN THE MORNING. HALLELUJAH!!!!

The CD Cover Tells The Story!, April 15, 2004
CeCe is on fire and she's happy about it! Wonderful song selection, near perfect delivery. This cd proves that serving God can be an enjoyable experience. Those who enjoy more traditional style gospel music may not be impressed, but this cd is by far one of the best to have been released by any gospel artist. CeCe proves yet again why she is the "Princess"; there is NO ONE on the gospel scene who can dethrone her. This is music that soothes the troubled mind and just makes you happy to be alive! You should have purchased this cd, like, yesterday :)
