 |  | Sheena is stellar in whatever she does! |  |
This is one Sheena Easton's most fun albums to date, which is now 2008. I have truly been a Sheena fan all of her career, but this release was truly a delight from track one to the end. Let's get together and What comes naturally, just seemed to fit the times for me when it was released. Early 90's and a joy for life were fit for the times. I truly would have worn out a vinyl copy of this album, thank god it was released in the era of CD's. Time Bomb is a true testament to our time now of AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases. I love Sheena and all her works from the past and for the future. Although, this review has dealt with a 1991 release mainly, Sheena has had several releases after this. No Strings, Fabulous, Home,(of which may be purchased through international based websites.)
January 7, 2008 | | Very fun dance-heavy album from Sheena! | |
I played this Sheena Easton album a lot back in 1991! I liked What Comes Naturally, but it's no contest to the album's more funkier songs, such as You Can Swing It (very Bell Biv Devoe-ish), Manic Panic, Time Bomb, Somebody, If You Wanna Keep Me (one of Vassal Benford's earlier songs) and so forth. It was a surprising shift since I had always known Sheena as a pop singer that had many nice '80s hits. But this album challenges even Paula Abdul and Janet Jackson's dance heavy albums! The new jack swing sound that was popular back then worked well for Sheena too. And while Sheena's time with this music was short lived, it was very chance taking. One of my favorite albums by her.
May 7, 2005This is quite a good album that should not be inorged. Here she emulates Paula Adbul with this set of savvy Urban/Dance-Pop tunes. Some highlights are "What Comes Naturally", "You Can Swing It", "To Anyone", and "Manic Panic" among other. An album worth checking out from this talented and very commerially viable artist. Also check out the following albums:
Laura Branigan-Laura Branigan
Samantha Fox-Just One Night
Millie Jackson-Young Man, Older Woman
June 12, 2003I love this album, ...This album does have a few ballads but they are not slow. Sheena's voice is clear & smooth. My favourites are the first single, "What Comes Naturally", the second single, "You Can Swing It", the third single, "To Anyone", "Somebody", which could have easily been recorded by Samantha Fox or Britney Spears, "Manic Panic", and "If You Wanna Keep Me". This is a great album that should have brought her multi-platinum (at least double platinum) success to Sheena Easton, one of the best pop artists.
April 26, 2003This is a great CD. In terms of todays music I'd say it was comparable to Vitamin C or Britney Spears but of course Sheena has a far better voice. This was her 8th studio album and it's excellent. The style of the music is dated slightly as it was made in 1991 but if you can get over that it's a great great mixture of R&B and Pop. Highlights are 'Manic Panic', 'First Touch Of Love' and 'What Comes Naturally'. Fans of Sheena's more traditional ballad filled albums should proceed to the checkout with caution but casual 90's pop fans wont be disappointed with 'What Comes Naturally'.
