Customer Reviews:

Really, really, REALLY BAD!.......2006-11-22

Bought and returned it with the first few minutes after sliding it into the player. The cover art is nice. As for the, um, muzak, I expected something less...fuzzy. Even the player hated it, spitting it out within seconds after tasting the first track.
If any of the original movie scores rate 5 stars, this rates a solid 10 black holes, IMHO.

Deceptive Title & Trade Dress.......2006-07-27

The title line of this product says Enya (Composer), Roma Enya / Ryan (Composer), Annie / Walsh, Fran / Shore, Howard Lennox (Composer), Howard Shore (Composer), Fran Shore Howard / Walsh (Composer). Had I read the descriptions more closely, I would have seen that the composers were listed in a way that made no sense. Rather, the list merely is composed of the names of the writers, musicians, and composers of the music in Peter Jackson's trilogy, so that someone who is familiar with the music of the trilogy would be deceived into buying this subpar and inadequate product. The trade dress is deceptive enough that it might border on trademark/trade dress infringment of the real stuff.
If you are a fan of the LOTR soundtracks and/or Howard Shore, I would avoid this product and opt for: 1) the official soundtracks of the trilogy; and 2) The Lord of the Rings The Fellowship of the Ring The Complete Recordings. Let's hope they follow up with the Two Towers and the Return of the King Complete Recordings.

This was a major disappointment.......2006-06-21

Too bad I can't give this one no stars. This disk is really bad. The performance is by a bland synthesizer "orchestra" without any of the depth or emotion you can find on the movie soundtracks. I would sell this CD back to the music store where I bought it, but then somebody else might be tempted to buy it. No; this disk is headed for the trash bin.

Not worth your money.......2006-05-14

Simply put, this album corrupts Howard Shore's music in the same way the ring tried to corrupt Frodo. The more you listen to it, the more you realize you should have bought the original soundtrack.

LOTR meets New Age.......2005-10-01

I wish I had read the other reviews before buying. 78 minutes of meandering through (and maiming) Howard Shore's fantastic work. No focus, no edge to the playing, themes apparently put together at random. The horns are poorly synthesized and sound pretty cheezy. Spend your money on the movie soundtrack. I wish I had.

Excellent b-sides + great remixes.......2000-05-27

If you like Erasure, or dance music, you'll love the b-side "Waiting For Sex". As was said in a review earlier it is not a raunchy song, it is instead a powerful breakup song with some of Erasure's most clever lyrics to date. The entertaining lyrics are coupled with simple background beats that allow the singing to be center stage, unlike many dance songs that simply rely on the bass. Not that the music is relegated to the background entirely or that it deserves to be, the music is quite good as well. The other b-side is "Carry on Clangers" a fun instrumental that sounds very '80's (although this is from the early '90's). The remixes of "Breath of Life" provided on the single are very strong, however I prefer the original version of the song.

KILLER!.......2000-02-13

"Breath of Life" is one of my favorite Erasure tunes. There are several re-mixes of this song on this maxi-single, all which are good, especially #4. The B-side "Waiting for Sex," is great! I think it is one of their cooler flipside offerings. The Dolphin cover art is vintage Erasure. This is one of the best singles. In the words of Andy Bell, "If you're waiting for sex, then stand in line. It's a million extra..."

Great song and B-Side.......1999-11-15

Though only one song is listed by Amazon above, the single for the great track from Chorus, "Breath of Life", actually has 8 tracks. This includes the single mix of Breath of Life as well as no less than 5 remixes of the song, all well done and very listenable. The two B-sides included, as was said in the previous review, are not just bad songs thrown in for good measure. "Waiting For Sex" is fortunately not anywhere close to as raunchy as the title would suggest and would have fit nicely into the superb "Chorus" album, Erasure's best. The other track is a fine instrumental called "Carry on Clangers". In short, this is a great buy, especially for the fine B-sides.

one of my favorites, and featuring Waiting for Sex.......1999-10-24

As only Breath of Life is listed, I can only assume that this cd single is the same as my maxi single. I must confess that I bought this single for the cover art, which I thought was cute. I also was intrigued by the title of the b-side, Waiting for Sex. Though it's not as provocative as I'd have thought, it's a good song, definitely not one of those horrible ones thrown in for good measure.

great, great!!!.......2006-12-05

This is the way ,I think, Purcell should sound. No pomp and surcomstance but only great music.

ALL THE MUSIC YOU EVER NEED!!.......2003-05-23

This boxed set is by far one of the best purchases I have ever made. As a Purcell freak, this hits every button I have. The cast of characters include the inequitable Robert King, New College Choir, Bowman, and a host of other venerable persons. Likewise the attention to period performance of these works makes it an essential addition to the library of any serious anglophile/Musicologist etc. Now if only the Britten Realizations of all Purcell's songs could be recorded alongside the originals! You will Love this set!

Celestial Songs.......2007-03-25

I love this CD so much I bought 12 for gifts for friends and loved ones. For me its very celestial and has such a high vibration it touches the core of my being.

PEACE THROUGH MUSIC.......2003-07-23

Our motto, 'Peace through Music,' reflects what we hope to bring about in the world...Let our music renew your connection to the natural world around you...Our music is designed to enhance a state of inner peace." ~ Lorellei

That it does.

There's such a sweet, gentle beauty and a sincere, heartfelt message of peace whispered to my thirsty soul, gently nudging me on to where I belong--happy and at peace! (Wanna come along? Buy this cd and you will!) Every time I listen, I dive into a fountain of youth overflowing with crystalline waters where I drink till all thirst is quenched! Next, I dive down deep into brisk coolness to enter its wisdom and I never wish to return! Now THIS is MUSIC! You have to hear it to believe it.

I give this one of my highest recommendations ever. 'Spiritus: Breath of Life' is a recording for new age lovers and seekers of beauty and peace in music and it will not disappoint. Free-flowing, lovely female voices balanced with equally gorgeous, varied music (piano, flute, violin, bass and much more) send your spirit soaring!

** "Imagine this music is alive, a Spirit into itself who reaches into your depths and guides you home into your soul." **

SOAR!

Flowing beauty blue and pink.......2000-04-28

Open your mind and heart with Spiritus: Breath of Life. Lorellei's beautiful, gentle voice brings peace into your inner spaces.

Some of the songs become a bit pop-py. My favorites are the flowing cadences of spirit and instrumentation.

Try this CD for a new approach to life!

Singh Kaur sings like an angel!.......1999-04-23

You can find Singh Kaur (Lorellei)here at Amazon with her works "Fairy Nightsong" and 2 CDs called "Crimson Collection". She is also featured in "Instruments of Peace" by Soundings Ensemble and in a Christmas Cd called "What Child Is This". For more information you might contact Soundings of the Planet at http://soundings.com/_peace or 1-800-93-peace.

Her melodies and words lift your spirit to fly........1999-03-10

Having a wide collection of "New Age" music Lorellei is one of my favorite female vocalists. This album brings out the romantic spirit and puts you in a soothing dream world of love. I fly an ultralight and her music gives me the same feelings I get when I glide just beneath the clouds. I have been unable to get anymore information on this artist and am looking forward to her next album.

I have this CD and I am ordering more for family and friends.
This CD will uplift and touch you in your heart center. I have never heard more beautiful and Soul touching songs before. Each song sung is precious. My favorite song is Pilomaya. Pilomaya is a special song of expressing gratitude in Lakota. I highly recommend this CD. It is great!

Amazon.com

Standup comedian, actress, and singer Lea DeLaria presents a less confrontational image here than she did on 1994's Bulldyke in a China Shop, adopting the role of seductive, witty, confident, and heterosexual jazz chanteuse to perfection. Her voice ranges from little-girl-lost innocence to harder-edged tones, both suited to the opening "The Ballad of Sweeney Todd." With stylings from Billie Holiday to Judy Garland, "I've Got Your Number" heads straight for the heart of 1950s big-band balladry, improvised scat vocals proving DeLaria can swing with the best. "Cool" is anything but, the accompaniment understated, that voice dripping with the promise of sex. In "With Every Breath I Take," we get to imagine every late night smoky bar in every old Hollywood film we've ever seen--while it is pastiche, the characterization is startlingly evocative.

DeLaria sums it up with "All That Jazz," confidently suggesting, following her recent twin roles in the lavishly acclaimed 2000 Broadway revival of The Rocky Horror Show, that this girl just wants to have fun playing bad. When she sings "Life Has Been Good to Me," she has such an upbeat twinkle, you suspect she means every word. --Gary S. Dalkin

Customer Reviews:

if you like female jazz vocalists you'll love this album.......2004-07-27

I wish Delaria would put out more albums like this one. Her voice and interpretation of the songs on the album are really great and withstand lots of repeat plays. Highly recommended. Many of the cuts are worth 5 stars, but I didn't really like all of her song choices, so that's why I rated the album 4 stars.

Everyone does it, and seldom as well..........2004-04-10

All I can say is...WOW.
When my partner and I saw Lea perform her routine in P-town, she wowed us with a stunning version of one of my all-time favorites, "The Ballad of Sweeny Todd." We bought her CD on the spot and it stayed in my car's CD player for weeks on end (and then I only took it out because I had to switch cars).
I enjoyed the whole album, but I found myself playing the first track over and over, and even singing it in the shower. I must disagree with the "Cigar" review on all counts, at least regarding this track. The song lends itself so beautifully to swingin' jazz I can't believe nobody thought of it before. But I'm glad no one has, because Lea DeLaria knocks it out of the park. The smooth delivery is perfect for the dry humor of the lyrics, her belts are such a perfect blend of head and chest it sends chills up my spine, and the arrangement is spot-on. The best part - it stands up beautifully to repeat listenings; I just can't grow tired of this rendition. The opening track alone is worth twice the price of this CD.

...This bull... in a china closet just flat kills.. you like your jazz delivered with power, style, and class.. Lea delivers. You want your jazz to swing? It does that too. My highest rating. It won't leave your cd player anytime soon. Did I mention the musicians helping Lea are just as hot?
