Customer Reviews:

Nice 80's Cover Song.......2005-10-12

Mariah does have her own way of recreating a good ol' song. Phil Collins wrote a great song back in 1984 and Mariah revived it in 99'. This cd is a must have for any Mariah fan.

Against Those Odds.......2005-06-11

Every once in a while, when a artist comes out with a great song, they can truly go so many places. But, when they choose to perform a cover of a song, it can once in awhile back on the singer. For somebody like Mariah Carey, her songlist is quite remarkable, but she could use some improvement on some covers here & there. This is one of them. Her remake of the Phil Collins classic Against All Odds, sounds a little bit wimpy, and not really heartfelt. Even though it was good when Phil recorded it, it just doesn't seem to be a very well thought fit from Mariah. She still is a good singer, but this turns it out to be a lackluster song with the odds.

Feelin' the Love.......2004-04-06

This is one of the best singles released off of "Rainbow" by far. It is a shame that it did not get much airplay on this side of the pond. A great buy for Mariah fans.

She definately beat the odds with this number..........2001-06-16

Mariah Carey, as we all know, usually writes her own material. Every now and then, of course, a really special, meaningful song, like Against All Odds, just can't be passed up. Mariah has stated that her album Rainbow is about all the different emotions she endured over the past couple of years before settling down to record this project. This song, in particular, sounds like it has something to do with the break up of her marriage to Sony Music CEO Tommy Mottola. I may be wrong, but the words and emotion Mariah sings with would definately lead one to think that this is what this song is about. The additional tracks, Cry baby (kind of annoying; too much vocal acrobatics), Thank God I found You -remix (same tempo as the orignal, accept that some different drums beats and chimes have been added), and Can't take that away -remix (very fast paced dance number; quite refreshing from the original version). For the most part, any Mariah fan would enjoy this import.

A GREAT SINGLE.......2001-02-01

This is one of the best singles i've bought. I absolutely love each and every song on this single. My favorite is the morales edit of cant take that away.
