I'll Be Your Baby Tonight

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Bernadette Peters has earned her distinction through hard work, sparkling talent, and a dizzying range of roles, yet one never feels she's "stretching out" beyond her abilities. This Grammy-nominated album from 1996 saw Peters strutting her tough kewpie-doll charm on everything from Elton John and Lyle Lovett, to (her favorite) Stephen Sondheim and Rodgers & Hammerstein. As a "pop" artist, Peters finds the soul of showmanship in even a wistful number like the Dylan song of the album title (a much less coy version than Maria Muldaur's with the Jim Kweskin Jug Band). For Bernadette Peters, personality is the liquor that drives an intoxicating performance. --Stephen M.H. Braitman

5 out of 5 stars Pure Hot Love - anytime she wants!.......2005-05-17

By far the most entertaining album that Bernadette Peters has ever done.
Love in various guises.

The title track, "I'll Be Your Baby Tonight" is so hot, you're going to blow your...um..top. This is the definitive version of this song, better than the Dylan original. or anyone elses.

I hadn't heard this album for years and it's much better than I remember.

Funny.

From the opening "I Feel like I'm Not out of Bed yet", "I Make him Feel Good" thru "Woman Be Wise" /(Don't advertise your Man) (By Sippie Wallace), "I'll be Your Baby Tonight" there is a lot of music for the Second Chakra here. Bluesy. Earthy.

But also Fourth chakra: "No One is Alone". "Running on Faith", "What's the use of Wondering" display her command of the show type tunes she is normally associated with.

Spectacular vocal range. Expressive. and the hot tuba solos are just the right touch.

What a Sweetie Pie! She can sure be my baby anytime she wants. Pure HOT Love.

2 out of 5 stars A great disappointment to me..........2002-01-11

I love Bernadette. I really do. But I hated this album. I cannot imagine what she was thinking. To me, the songs were bad choices for her, the arrangements were unpleasant, her voice was not at its best. I listened to it three times, and could not warm up to it, so I gave it away. I was so excited when I found it in our town's only music store, a place that offers few items which are not mass appeal productions. I have to say that it probably was the full-price purchase I regret most in the last five years.

5 out of 5 stars Superb!.......2001-04-20

This is artistry at its best. Bernadette has entertained in as many venues as any artist, and is wildly successful at all of them!! This release shows off her versatility in a huge variety of musical styles. Memorable tracks are "Cupid", "No One Is Alone", "He's Got A Way" and "I'll Be Your Baby Tonight." In this release, Bernie is sultry, sweet, melancholy and flirtatious. 5 stars +++++++!

5 out of 5 stars Bernadette Draw Back Your Bow Lips.......2000-09-03

and let's her talent flow in this diverse collection of songs for the romantic at heart. This album covers a wide range of styles of the romance songs genre: the playful 50's-ish "You Make Me Feel Good"; the touching re-make of the Beatle's "(She's) He's Got A Way About (Her) Him"; the chilling lonliness of "Faithless Love" and the 'sinfully delicious' "I'll Be Your Baby Tonight"-this CD take's you on a journey to the center of your heart and back, and then some, as only Bernadette can.

5 out of 5 stars Bernadette once again takes my breath away........1999-06-15

If you are a Bernadette Peters fan, this cd is for you. Songs like RUNNING ON FAITH, NO ONE IS ALONE and, WOMAN BE WISE are breath taking! I think that this her best cd of all time. I would recomend this cd to anyone, fan or not.
