Anouk - Together Alone

 Positively Brilliant
It's such a shame that such a talented singer with such a tight band hasn't been able to cross over the Atlantic. Her voice goes right through you. I've purchased all her albums. Except 'Graduated Fool,' the quality is very high. There are a few good songs on 'Fool,' but I think she was going through a creative lull. Buy this album and be one of the few Americans to know how amazingly good she is. January 5, 2007

 Awesome Voice, Average Music, Poor Lyrics
The woman can sing, i mean really sing its awesome how she can handle her voice from sweetnes to rough levels from low to high wow!!!! again, she really can sing, the music? yeah shes stuck into early and mid 80s wich is good at moments but after a while you get tired of that, the lyrics? well i have to say something to all that kind of women who think men will cry because they have decided they will not be available for a relationship or marriage ever (Greta Garbos sindrome, "I want to be alone")and men will beg and will keep interested on them.
Girls, we dont care!!!! do you want to be alone? be alone!!!
good luck with that, this is regarding "Nobodys wife" the rest of the songs with the exception of "sacrifice" and "fluid conduction" (wich are really overwhelming) are average pop songs.
im not dying to listen other Anouk cd however

 Together Alone ~ Anouk
Together Alone~ Anouk is not a very inspiring album at all and ones has the feeling that one has heard this millions of times before. Especially if one grew up in the 80's like I did. It sounds like boring 80's rock with trite lyrics, that talk about like nothing in particular. Nobody's wife sounds like she is writing for a feminist newspaper and is filled with cliches and typical lines found in leftist propaganda. The book-let is alright but she dresses like she bought her clothes at Target and they look baggy and is she lived on the streets or was part of some feminist movement. Very disapointed indeed.

 Dutch Rock Goddess
The woman can sing, and she isn't afraid to tell you how it really is. Anouk is just oozing with talent, whether is it screaming or serenading with a ballad. "Together Alone" is one of her best CDs, and if you like it, you definitely need her "Urban Solitude" CD. One of the best musicians to ever come out of the Netherlands (in my opinion), and a Dutch rock goddess. Also check out K's Choice if you like Anouk. You won't be disappointed. February 17, 2004

 This One is Hot!
Anouk comes across as the kind of B-I-T-C-H who, after you've given her your best in the sack, gives you a nasty look and says: "Is that all?" This woman has an attitude that evokes Joan Jett, and her music bests that of JJ.
From the title track, in which Anouk hollers that she'll "never be nobody's wife!", this woman oozes with a seductive sexual energy. The fact that Anouk is mesmerizingly torrid, and the booklet that comes with the CD is chock full of her in titillating poses (I can just imagine adolescent boys spending hours holding the booklet up with one hand), doesn't mean that she is substituting sex appeal for talent: This woman has it all!
"It's So Hard" is the most outstanding cut on a cd full of outstanding cuts. Buy this compact disc and you'll agree that Anouk is the best thing to come out of the Netherlands since the Van Halen brothers (Eddie and Alex, that is). November 24, 2002
