The first time I heard these songs I fell in love with them. Now they are my most favorite Luther songs. Every song on this cd is a gem. I love them all but my all time favorites are Hello and Impossible Dream. I sometimes put these two songs on repeat and just dream of beautiful things. I can't say enough good things about this CD. This is one of those cd's that you can really enjoy every song without the skip button. MY favorite luther ever! A Classic! He is a genius!

Luther is a great vocalist!! The proof of that is his cover of Dionne Warwick's "What The World Needs Now" and "The Impossible Dream".

If You haven't already, find this CD and buy just for those two tracks. Keep in mind, you'll love his version of "Reflections" and others. But, the clear star of this cd (for me, at least) is "What The World Needs Now"

I MISS YOU ALREADY LUTHER!!!!!

Luther Vandross, you always amaze me at the right time! I'm a huge Motown fan, and I think Luther has done an excellent job on songs by Diana Ross and the Supremes ("Reflections"), and Lionel Richie ("Hello"). I especially like that duet with Mariah Carey called "Endless Love." There's "Always and Forever," "Evergreen," "Going in Circles," and my personal favorite, "Ain't No Stopppin' Us Now." A pleasant surprise turns up when Luther takes a Whitney Houston song ("All the Man I Need") and turns it into "All the Woman I Need." This is just another great album!

I defy anybody to find a truer cover of the Motown classic "Reflections" that was still able to inject the performer's originality into it. I put this song on repeat and play it all day long.

"Killing Me Softly with His Song" is one of those songs that's hard to ruin no matter who does it. But some versions are better than others. Luther's is right up there with Johnny Mathis' cover as one of the best I've heard. Unlike a lot of male performers, Luther doesn't change "him" to "her", but understandably changes "young girl" to "stranger". This was an intelligent choice that works beautifully.

Stephen Still's "Love the One You're With" never was so sanctified! It's even better than the Isley Brothers cover I heard as a child.

"All the Woman I Need" is the masterpiece of this collection. The arrangements, the strings, the harmonies...they're all so very thrilling to the point of breathlessness for me. Just gorgeous.

"Songs" is Luther's homage to some of his favorite songwriters. I understand it was the first to exclusively feature songs that weren't written by him. If I were a songwriter, I would be honored to have my song in this collection, and sung by a man who truly knows how to bring out the best in each of them. I challenge anybody to find a bad album by Luther Vandross. His work is top drawer or he doesn't do it. If only the younger artists of today would learn from him...pop radio would be a lot easier on the ears.

My wife and I have always enjoyed listening to Luther Vandross's songs. He puts so much feeling into the words of each song, it is impossible not to love his music.
