5.0 out of 5 stars la meravigliosa Laura, March 11, 2005

By	Alejandra Vernon "artist & illustrator" (Long Beach, California) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (COMMUNITY FORUM 04)

This is my first Laura Pausini CD, but certainly won't be my last; it is an exceptional compilation spanning the years 1993 through 2000, though the early ones have been updated, and read "2001 version".
"Seamisai (sei que me amavas)" is a duet with Brazilian singer/songwriter Gilberto Gil from Laura's 1996 "Le Cose Che Vive" CD, and she sings one song in English, from the soundtrack of the 1999 Kevin Costner film "Message in a Bottle", and it is exquisite, and features the great Dean Parks on guitar.
A winner of many awards, Laura won first place with "La Solitudine" at the prestigious San Remo Festival in '93 when she was 19 years old, and third place with "Strani Amori" in '95.

Laura's voice has a tender and smoky sound when singing softly, and has a powerful high register which she uses masterfully (in this respect she can be compared somewhat to Celine Dion) and her pitch is perfection...it reminds me of a tennis player hitting the ball in the sweetspot of the racket...Laura hits each note in its sweetspot.
The arrangements are lush and beautiful, and many of the songs incredibly lovely, and could not possibly be sung better. The booklet insert has all the lyrics, recording info, and many photos of the doe-eyed Ms. Pausini. The sound is terrific and total playing time is 66'24.

5.0 out of 5 stars Five stars is'nt enough! Laura is the best!, November 5, 2001

By	"cocco_chanel5" (Malmo, Sweden) - See all my reviews

This is one of the best albums I've ever heard! It's simply the best!
This is a collection of Lauras best songs. There is also two new songs, E RITORNO DA TE and UNA STORIA CHE VALE. Both songs are my favourites. I love all her songs. There is one song that I particulary like, it is TRA TE E IL MARE ( BETWEEN YOU AND THE SEA).
I love her voice, she sings with emotion.
Her very first songs, LA SOLITUDINE (LONELINESS), NON C'Č ( NOT HERE), STRANI AMORI (STRANGE LOVES) and GENTE (PEOPLE) are GREAT!
Those songs are made in new versions, and the are REALY GREAT!
And the song SEAMISAI is also in a new version but now it is a duett with the brazilian singer Gilberto Gil.
Let's not forget the song ONE MORE TIME on the soundtrack for the movie MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE starring Kevin Costner. I love it!
I just want to say that this is one of the best albums ever!
Buy it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful...simply beautiful., January 24, 2004

By	Kevin Himpelmann (Morris, IL USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Laura Pausini has, without any doubt in my mind, the most extraordinarily beautiful singing voice I have ever heard. Even though I do not speak a word of Italian, she manages to perfectly convey the emotion of the song with the way in which she presents the words with her vocals. There have been times when, listening to her, I have been nearly moved to tears, which is something that never happens for me with any other singer out there. If you are a fan of Laura already, you probably know what I mean. If you have never heard her before, please buy this album. It is extraordinary.
