Everlasting Love

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com essential recording
At the height of her creative and vocal abilities in the late '90s, CeCe Winans weighed in heavily with this marvelously accessible collection of R&B-styled contemporary gospel. From the bouncy groove of "Well, Alright" to the vinyl-like crackle of "I Am" to the superb breakbeat spiritual of the Lauryn Hill-penned and -produced "On That Day," Winans has carved the keys to a city in which both the sacred and secular populations can dance. Twice given the Dove Award for Female Vocalist of the Year, Winans's voice has a supple and immediate strength without the histrionics of Whitney Houston or Mariah Carey. This is not only an important career record, but a gem that stands up against most any contemporary R&B. --Paige La Grone

Growing up in a household with 10 kids, CeCe Winans no doubt got really good at sharing. Through the years she's happily shared the spotlight with her big brother Benjamin (that's BeBe to you), and she's graciously stood in the shadow cast by her better-known friend, Whitney Houston. With her second solo project, though, Winans proves she's got plenty to say and is perfectly comfortable going it alone.

Mostly Country love songs.......2007-06-18

Very enjoyable and nice mix of artists. Not entirely sure how Olivia Newton John's song, I Honestly Love You, made it on though. Was that "country" and I just missed it? I'd have given it a 5 if I didn't have to skip that song each time.

VERY NICE.......2006-02-03

Wow The original artists for our wedding day love songs.
I also was glad to finally find on amazon
"A Song For My Son" for the mother groom dance and
"A Song For My Daughter" for our father bride dance.
I could get these songs as singles or on
The New Wedding Traditions Volume I CD
I heard samples at www.new-wedding-traditions.com
Thanks amazon.com

Here is the CD that will definitely set the mood for romance, country style that is. What really amazes me on getting the CD, "Everlasting Love Songs" is simply this great compilation of country vocal reflections of various artists of the 90s, which is a much awaited and much needed collection at this turn of the millennium. Although I'm a well-rounded music listener and not to consider myself as a country buff, this 17 track collection of country love songs is so enjoyable to listen with that mellow touch feeling. If you have the Real Player installed in your PC, click and take advantage by listening some samples and you'll know what I mean.

With great artists like George Strait, Reba McEntire, Kathy Mattea, Vince Gill, Shania Twain, and Billy Ray Cyrus, this CD is worth the purchase for those who enjoy slow country music or for those who are not the country buff like me or for those who are new to this genre. So take pride and appreciate the talents of some of the great country artists of our times.

Well, Alright!.......2004-04-16

I've had this cd since it was first released and it is still as poignant now as it was then. That's the great thing about CeCe's music; it never grows old or tired. "Well, Alright" is easily the standout track on this cd and one of my personal favorites. Other highlights include, "What About You", "Everlasting Love", "Come on Back Home", "Just Come" and "On That Day" (w/Lauryn Hill in the background).
Let me not forget, "The Wind"...a beautiful song I've heard somewhere before, I think by a country singer. Nonetheless, it's great with CeCe's vocals as well. If you're tired of the contemporary gospel artists who try too hard to appeal to the younger demographic, pick up this cd, you won't be disappointed.

Everlasting Love (by: CeCe Winans).......2004-04-12

This release quickly became one of my all-time favorites, and to date is the only recording I have ever recommended! There's such a rich mixture of smooth and upbeat melodies, all with lyrics that are inspirational and provoke serious soul searching. Add to that, the fact that CeCe sings with such feeling that it adds a depth and warmth that's unique. And to top that off, she gives you several more than the customary number of tracks, enhancing the overall purchase value. This is a rare find. Obtain it for yourself, and be blessed!

Off the HOOK!.......2003-03-05

I really love this cd and all the songs. I'm a huge CeCe fan. My favorite song on the CD is "Everlasting Love". Because it simply let's you knew god's love is everlasting. It's eternal.

This cd is her best to date...........2003-01-08

All i have to say is pick it up today!
Right now....go now!

Customer Reviews:

An okay album.......2007-01-09

Sorry, but I have to disagree with most of the reviewers on this disc. I love Vanessa Williams, and I especially loved her "Sweetest Days" album (my favorite of hers), but this one is just okay.

I bought this about a year ago, and just got around to opening it and putting it in my disc player for my alarm (I had Luther in there for a long time). I can barely keep my eyes open when this music comes on, because it is so tepid. She has a great voice, but she interjects absolutely no emotion into these songs. It irks me, because it could have been so much better than it is. She picked great songs to cover, but they are songs that need life breathed into them, not songs that should just be song note for note, which is pretty much what is going on here.

If Vanessa was a verb..........2006-03-15

... It would be one to express how good this album is!!! I'm a huge fan of this lady, not because she is beutiful and stuff like that (I'm a woman too. So I prefers boys), but because she sings like an angel!!! And I was expecting a new album for so long when she released this one... What I did not expect was the inteligent choices for songs. Til this day I can't even choose my fave ones, cause I loved the whole album.

She put some class and some new sounds to well known and aproved music. Really great!!! Many artists are doing this revival albuns, and this one I would recomend to people that are embracing this wave. Vanessa put her classy stile to this, and made the music sound new, cool and good to hear whatever the moment.

Very good @}->---.......2006-01-23

I don't usually like cover albums where people often end up hashing classic hits. This however is very different because there is no way that Vanessa Williams, with her beautifully smooth voice could ruin a former hit. These are sung with warmth and soul and she does an excellent job. The only song I don't like is With You I'm Born Again - but then again, it's the song, not her. Every other song on here is fantastic and I really recommend this to anyone who seeks a bit of nostalgia, and well done remakes of old school, classic music. PS. Isn't she stunning?

THE BEST COVER CD.......2005-12-10

This is the best cd of "covers" I have ever heard, and I have quite a few now. The feeling she conveys in each song lets you know these are some of her favorites, and her range is unbeatable. So good, I bought 2 copies, just in case someone "borrows" one!

Everlasting Love - actually 4.5 stars.......2005-12-03

The thing that I love about cover discs is the chance to hear a new spin on familiar songs by different artists. I'm so glad that Vanessa hasn't been pushed out of the record biz and feel that this collection is one of the best that I purchased this year! As a fan of her previous discs, I know that Vanessa is a classy singer who successfully mixes r&b with jazz giving her music a unique sound (her vocal phrasing is also consistent and a hallmark of her work).

Now when I saw the track list, 3 songs immediately jumped out to me: THE FIRST TIME EVER I SAW YOUR FACE, EVERLASTING LOVE & WITH YOU I'M BORN AGAIN. These are not only three of my favorite songs of all time but were performed by women who I frankly, didn't think Vanessa could touch (ie compete with) vocally: Roberta Flack, Chaka Khan & Syreeta Wright.

The addition of instruments on TFTEISYF make the song sound richer than the spare masterpiece original; Vanessa's duet of WYIBA with George Benson is faithful to the original and of course, Vanessa doesn't have the soaring soprano vocals of Syreeta, but she definitely sounds great on this track. Finally, the cover of EL is AMAZING - I don't think that many female vocalists can outdo Chaka but Vanessa put her foot down on this one and sounds terrific! The arrangement & her vocals rival the original. These are definitely 3 of my favorite tracks on the disc.

Other standouts are: MIDNIGHT BLUE, NEVER CAN SAY GOODBYE, LET'S LOVE, SHOW & TELL & I'LL BE GOOD TO YOU. The bonus track, TODAY & FOREVER is based on a poem written to Vanessa from her ex and it is a poignant tune in which she is truly expressing a desire for them to work to put their marriage back together.

I also enjoyed the jazzed up versions of HARVEST FOR THE WORLD & SEND ONE YOUR LOVE.

Bravo, Vanessa for producing such an enjoyable collection of music while going through a painful split.

I like this CD!!!!.......1999-03-20

This is a great CD!! I have heard all of the songs that are on this CD on Oldies 97.3 KBSG, which is the oldies radio station in Seattle, Washington, where I live. On 97.3, the songs all had different artists singing the songs, and Robert Knight has added a little introduction to each of the songs, and I think it gives the songs more depth. As I stated before, this is a great CD, definatly worthy of the five stars I gave it.

SANDRA IS EXCELLENT !!!.......1999-04-17

Everlasting Love is an EXCELLENT collection of Sandra's mid to late '80's European pop hits for anyone who has never heard of her but is interested ! It is a slick combination of dance, pop-rock and r & b songs from her Long Play, Mirrors, and Into A Secret Land , albums (all imports). And, yes, many critics have compared her vocals to the likes of Madonna, Kate Bush, Cyndi Lauper and Paula Abdul. Sandra would later become the sensual female voice heard on the Enigma albums. For music listeners who cannot tolerate or stand to listen to the pop, dance sound of this type of music, you may very well find yourself becoming addicted to her vocals and the music ( for the most part, on the Enigma albums she does not sing but rather recites lyrics; Whereas on her own albums she actually sings in a sensual velvety, whispy [almost nasal at times] type of voice). Everlasting Love is a U.S. release. The European version was titled Ten On One and included a track titled Stop for A Minute not found on this album version. However, the European version does not include several tracks as found on the U.S. release from her Into A Secret Land album. At any rate, the Everlasting Love collection's highlights are Maria Magdalena, Secret Land, In the Heat of the Night, Little Girl, and Loreen; Everlasting Love (album title, re-make, re-mix version) track does not fare as well and has a rather generic Euro-80's dance/techno sound. In total sum, this album showcases the best of her 80's music; Not until the 90's did her music change into a more sophisticated Enigma-like-sound,yet, maintaining a more conventional pop-rock, r&b flavor ! Everlasting Love rates 5 stars for showcasing what EXCELLENT dance-club music of the 80's sounded like !!! (5 stars for the artist, writer, producer, musicians, etc.).
