I purchased this CD on a whim, and what a wonderful surprise! I knew anything from Gloria would be good, but I cannot even decide on a favorite song here! So many times, covered songs are so-so, not here, though. Gloria's beautiful range and wonderful accent will steal your heart. If it's possible to wear out a CD, this will be the one!

My two favorite songs on this CD are "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me" and "Turn The Beat Around." The other tracks are wonderful too. When I got this CD as a present, I didn't realize the songs were covers of 50's, 60's, and 70's hits, but I was pleasantly surprised when I found out. With this CD, Gloria pays tribute to the singers and groups she has admired through the years.

Before each song she includes a little background story on what it means to her, and why she included it. "Everlasting Love" and "Turn The Beat Around" are the spiciest covers, both have a techno feel. She stays pretty true to the originals with the rest. I highly recommend this CD, especially if you like oldies, because she does these songs justice. I love it!

Gloria has done an excellent job of covering these classic songs. From ballads to disco the whole album is great and fun to listen to. The old songs get a new freshness. The booklet has all the lyrics and each song has a small note above it by Gloria, telling an anecdote or story about that particular song, of how she came to record it, or of a special memory it holds for her. A bit of a change from her latin/dance albums, but a special treat for her fans. If you are a fan of Gloria, or of these songs, you will enjoy this album.

gloria estefan this cd show the power of make it this cd bring her unlike mariah carey who back this time last year in 2005 gloria comeback was a litte bit diffrent it was a real comeback nobody thought gloria would comeback on the radio but she did comeback strong she didn,t much as like mariah carey did but she comeback strong the point she was heard four years on the radio everybody brought unlike madonna ray of light she didn,t model after someelse. and it help set solo carer off .

I bought this CD for the song It's Too Late. Had I realized that the whole CD was all remakes I wouldn't have purchased it. Most of the arrangements are disappointing and not even as good as the originals. Although, I like a lot of Gloria's music this CD will be taken to the used CD shop my next trip. Don't waste your money on this one!!!
