"Little Bit of Pain" worth the price of admission.......2007-03-09

Vanessa has never enjoyed the popularity she deserves. She and hubby's mix of electronica and vocals is one-of-a-kind, some of the dreamiest, stellar dance music around. "Little Bit of Pain" is one of the more delicious dance songs I can recall next to her own "Long Tunnel of Wanting You." A couple of cuts are threadbare for me, but still keep the mood going. For all Vanessa fans who loved "Zipless" and "Slow to Burn".

So in love with Vanessa.......2005-11-06

I have no idea why it has taken me so long to write this review.

First of all, let me make a bold statement - this is easily my favorite CD in my collection, which I must admit is quite considerable in size. I have had this CD for some time now, four or five years, and have listened to it easily over a 1,000 times and have not tired of it in the least. Vanessa voice, as well as the sensual music simmering beneath it, is incredibly sexy and raw and will strip your inhibitions naked.

I am embarrassed to admit that I knew nothing of Vanessa until I stumbled across one of her songs on an episode of Dawson's Creek. I know, I know, but at least it brought Vanessa's music into my life - well worth the hours of guilty pleasure spent on the WB many years back. I am a complete trip-hop freak, so I have no idea how I managed to miss out on Vanessa for so long.

I have since bought all of Vanessa's CDs, including her single "A Little Bit of Pain", as well as any other Daou recording that I can scavenge from Amazon, iTunes, wherever. I was even able to procure an autographed copy of "Make You Love" from Vanessa's website a few years ago. Needless to say, it is a prized possession. Each CD easily ranks in my top 20, most in my top 10. I am sure a review of my iPod's most listened to list would confirm this fact.

From Vanessa and Peter Daou's musical interpretation of Erica Jong's writings on "Zipless", to "Slow to Burn", "Dear John Coltrane", "Plutonium Glow" (thank you, Vanessa for the song "Alive" on this CD), to this immaculate offering, "Make You Love", Vanessa consistently delivers the goods.

Personal favorites on "Make You Love" include "You", "A Little Bit of Pain", "Mess Around", "Make You Love", and "Juliette". This is music for the sensual life - an intimate and leisurely gathering of friends, that wandering afternoon drive to nowhere in particular, or a passionate late night session with the one that you love (or simply lust).

Get a little bit of Vanessa in your life, and into your headphones. My life hasn't been the same since she came into mine.

Vanessa, please keep doing what you do. Your music is a bastion in a world that rewards the offensive and talent-devoid offerings of the likes of Britney Spears and Ashlee Simpson.

Simply The Best.......2005-07-22

I think this cd has to go down as Vanessa's best work. Even if you are not a fan of her music, you should have this one in your collection.

back in top form.......2004-07-26

I was a little (just a little) disappointed with her last two releases, Dear John Coltrane and Plutonium Glow. But this latest is fantastic all and all. She sounds better than ever. The music is a nice mixture of Slow to Burn and Plutonium Glow with a touch of jazz fusioned with the Futuristic touch of Peter's. Make You Love remains one of the romantic songs I've ever heard. Juliette is simply sexy beyond words. She's (they've) done it again! Get the CD.

Gets even better with each listen!.......2004-04-27

Since Amazon tagged my "so you'd like to.." guide with the cover to her superb and sultry "Zipless" , I felt somewhat compelled to get more familiar with Vanessa's other work. I chose "Make You Love" as my next purchase and was extremely impressed. Her incredibly sexy breathy vocals aren't the only highlights of this album. The production of this entire piece of work is thoughtfully and painstakingly crafted... from each percusssive hit to the touches of reverb to the level of bass and where it sits in the mix. Her take on Jane's Addiction's "I Would for You" breathes interesting new life into a classic song. "A Little Bit Of Pain II"'s bassline is a groove delight entwined with luscious vocals. "You" is a perfect opener... pop-laced and upbeat. A phenomenal c.d.!!!
