Album Description
2002 album on which the sexiest fifty-something in pop sings with contemporaries such as Elton John, Paul McCartney & Sting, as well as bright young things Atomic Kitten, Westlife & Samantha Mumba. Reminding us exactly why she's still not only a dynamite entertainer but an unmatched vocal craftswoman, tracks include 'To Sir With Love', 'Teardrops' & 'Reunited', plus Lulu's landmark 1993 chart-topping collaboration with Take That, 'Relight My Fire'. Includes the UK bonus track, 'I'm Back For More - With Bobby Womack'.Album Details
Lulu Follows the Tom Jones Formula by Recording an Elpee's Worth of Duets with Some of the Hottest Artists of the Day, Including Sir Elton John, Atomic Kitten, Ronan Keating, Samantha Mumba (Redoing her Biggest Hit 'to Sir with Love'), Sir Cliff Richard, Joe Cocker, Gordon Sumner (Sting) and Many More. As a Bonus, her First Collaboration with Take That, a Remake of the Late Dan Hartman's 'relight My Fire' is Included as a Bonus Track.Customer Reviews:
Lulu's music is as good as it has ever been.......2002-06-23
It was therefore with some doubts that I bought this collection of covers featuring duets with a varied collection of partners, some older than Lulu, but others not even born when Lulu had her last big solo hit. I needn't have worried - although I can't say I love every track, the overall impression is far better than I dared hope for. After two spins, I generally prefer the ballads, but you may prefer the uptempo rocking songs, some of which are excellent. In any case, there is plenty of variety.
All the tracks are newly recorded except Relight my fire, which was recorded with Take That in the nineties and topped the British charts. It is the last track of the album.
If you haven't got any of Lulu's music, this is a fine introduction for fans of the current pop scene. Fans of the sixties and seventies should start with From crayons to perfume. Either way, if you buy one, you may become sufficiently curious to buy the other.
