Ms. Fabulous Sheena

Oh where do I begin. This cd I just got my hands on and it went straight to play. This music is so disco pop, Sheena has the style and perfection all wrapped up in this cd that is oh so Fabulous. Her version of On My Own may differ than Reba McEntires but still has a good beat her way, other songs are: Dont Leave Me This Way, Giving Up Giving In, Love is In Control, Thats what Friends Are For, Never Can Say Goodbye, Best Of My Love, Cant Take My Eyes Off You, You Never Gave me the Chance and Get Here To me. A great cd to have with all of Sheena's other wonderful music. Fabulous job Sheena, You havent changed 1 bit! February 25, 2008

HORRENDOUS

Holy you know what! Maybe she should have been singing "Desperado". This is so unlistenable it is frightening that it is from Sheena. Having just purchased her entire CD catalog I figured - why not - let's see what she does with these.
It's a daunting job in the first place - but it is downright embarassing. I don't need to point out what is so "horrendous" about "fabulous" because it's just simply an awful product from an incredibly talented artist. Listen to "A Private Heaven", "Do You" (very underrated), "No Sound But A Heart", "The Lover In Me" and "What Comes Naturally". These showcase Sheena. Once again I have to ask - who the hell manages her career? August 19, 2004

Catchy Euro-Dance/Hi-NRG Music

This is a good album. Sheena's voice is best when her voice flows natually & not trying to pull off robust diva-esque vocals.
The best songs & my favourites here are "Giving Up, Giving In", "Love Is In Control", "Get Here to Me", "That's What Friends Are For", and "You Never Gave Me The Chance. Lovers of club/dance music would enjoy this. August 10, 2004

Almost FABULOUS !

Sheena Easton is a vocalist who left a massive imprint on the era of the 1980s. Her vocal sound was clear and unique. A media darling that did benefit from prominent exposure during the early days of MTV.

It's nice to hear her return to the musical arena. Her vocals remain strong and have more texture. However, her attempt to register a chart comeback falls on deaf ears. The main problem with this CD is that it has been tailor made for two specific markets. (1) Disco lovers and (2) Gay audiences into kitch.

The producers should have realised that both audiences are die hard fans of GLORIA GAYNOR, DONNA SUMMER, THELMA HOUSTON and THREE DEGREES. It's highly unlikely Sheena could convince them to abandon their vinyl copies of the dancefloor anthems and audition her rendition of those disco classics.

Unfortunately, due to the highly restrictive musical focus on this project, SHEENA comes across as a "GRADE B" version of KYLIE MINOGUE and GERI HALLIWELL (both of whom cannot sing, while Sheena remains a vocal powerhouse). October 4, 2003

Fabulous

I've been heard all these songs for long terms. All the decade for these songs. When listen to the radio including KOST 103.5 or
K-BIG 104.3 FM. Also I see you on the video of What Comes Naturally, Strut, and Sugar Walls all I know your move, emotions
and your song. Because you have a beautiful song of the request.
Therefore, Sheena you wrote your own song of the pop rock all the sound. Can you send a ticket,I can go to hte Las Vegas Hilton
to meet you on the backstage for signing autograph and CD. That your song for decade. March 25, 2003
