Now this, chirrens, is a REAL triple threat. You don't need directions and you don't need cash. From your Jimmy Choos to your Ultralash. ~ Prince

Not really. It's all a latin type album without the uptempos and mid-tempos. All of the reviews say it's an album of remakes, but I didn't know a lot of the songs. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

I didn’t know it was remakes either! I think I heard that way early on and then I thought the concept changed when I heard about the Latin twist. Oh well, I’ll take it either way.

I'm only counting 8, including this one...  They are probably counting not only comps but those 3 Christmas ablbums (yes, three!) | |

I like what I've heard, I want this CD, now. Be very careful how you treat people: You know where you've been but you don't where you're going. |

The album was released today. I am stunned by how many slow songs are on it. "I do not understand how anyone not named Grace Jones was ever allowed to think of themselves as "fierce." - Sasha Frere-Jones | |

oh jackie
and i found i've had way too much willy slater to take these songs seriously dammit I know!  She's got more fire in her than this. I'm not going to see her shows either if she's going to be doing this lounge stuff. I almost went to see her before the album dropped and she was performing the new material. I'm glad I didn't. I would have been hot. Although live, I'm sure the music is beautiful, and she's a great performer, yadda yadda but why is she acting like 47 the new 87? Put some pep in it dammit. Natalie's got more uptempo grooves than this. I want her to do the house mix of Work To Do![Edited 6/2/09 7:06am] "I do not understand how anyone not named Grace Jones was ever allowed to think of themselves as "fierce." - Sasha Frere-Jones | |

I borrowed it from a friend. It's not a favorite but more enjoyable than I thought. I like some of the musicianship. Definitely an after dinner disc. "I do not understand how anyone not named Grace Jones was ever allowed to think of themselves as "fierce." - Sasha Frere-Jones | |

did you catch her on the view jackie? she looked fantastic "one of us has got to pick the phone up!" | |

Ooh, thanks. I missed her on everything except for Conan. She was also on Wendy Willaims where she implied that Rick is being less than a good father but fortunately her first husband is great. she also said she was tired of being asked about Ms. California or whoever for that pageant thing.

I’m talking candle lights, a glass of wine and then snoozeville. The title track and last song are midtempo and that’s it. She can’t even do her dance number for these songs. Just pull out a stool or lean on the baby grand. Oh well. Still love her.
