4.0 out of 5 stars Where's the live version?, Jun 22 2004
This review is from: I Believe (Audio CD)
The live version was awesome. Why isn't it included on the CD? I prefer live music to studio recordings, and the studio version of 'I Believe' just pales in comparison to the rendition performed on the final competition episode. The CD is fine, but it isn't as good as it could have been.

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm glad I bought this book first!, May 26 2004
This review is from: Beagle Handbook, The (Paperback)
Now, I'm not sure if I want a beagle.

This is a great book. While I am only halfway through it, it has already addressed methods for finding a breeder, problems with buyg dogs from other sources, selecting your beagle, and early health problems to look for in a pup. I never though so much information would be in one book.

It goes on to dicuss training, tips on training your pet, introducing him/her to the family, leaving him/her alone, and the big one...that howl. It also talks about behavior and so many other things that I can't recall at the moment.

My own reservations don't really speak to the book's genius, but I have to say I really wanted a beagle before reading the book. Now, I'm not so sure. I love the breed so much, but it has so much baggage!

Excellent book! I'm still reading it (not much of a book reader here), so I am still on the fence about my dog choice.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great collection, great supporting information..., Jun 26 2003
If you saw 'Reloaded', and wondered who the kid was that greeted the team as they returned to Zion, buy this. If you thought "huh?" when you heard the Osiris mentioned, buy this. How about Trinity? Any questions about her origins? Actually, if you have any questions after examining the two movies in depth, I'm sure that "The Animatrix" will satisfy them.

I still haven't played the CD...but...okay, it's in there too.

I didn't care for the Anime in some of the shorts, but all of the stories were well written and offerred substantial background information.

4 stars because of the last two points. For story alone, 5 stars all the way.

5.0 out of 5 stars The New Queen of the Sad Love Song (Sorry Toni)..., Jun 26 2003
This review is from: The Morning After (Audio CD)
Deborah Cox, is beautiful, talented, and passionate enough to deliver heart wrenching music effectively. On this album, "Hurts So Much", "Starting With You", "Play Your Part", and "Up & Down" are four of the best recordings I have enjoyed in a long time. In the past 2 months, my iPod has already logged 400+ plays of these tracks--the most of any other song I own.

She worked with Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis again on this album, and it shows. They have a knack for getting an artist to deliver their best in the studio. Truly a wonderful collection of soulful music. If this isn't in your collection, and you're an R&B fan, BUY IT!

Oh, as far as the "Sad Love Song" comment:

Hurts So Much
Deborah longs to stay in a bad relationship becasue she'd "rather be in love, than be alone"...

Starting With You
Deborah helps a friend understand that a bad relationship isn't worth the pain...

Up & Down
Deborah keeps it real on this one. She didn't come to fight, she came to "make love, not war"...

Play Your Part
Discusses a man who is no longer "Playing his Part" in a relationship...

Drama for days! I love it!

This review is from: Greatest Hits (DVD)
These performances, like Home, Didn't We..., etc., are priceless. This was, by far, my most prized DVD of 2001. Whitney just isn't saangin' like this anymore. I love it.

5.0 out of 5 stars There are so many versions of this..., April 7 2003
I'm not sure if I have this one or not. I have the video that came out when HIStory came out, so here goes...

This is a great collection. Michael Jackson is the greatest of all time, and the world is a better place with his awesome music and videos being played. It was wonderful watching these timeless pieces again, and again.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Collection, April 7 2003
I'm glad they made this video. While I have every video made, as a fan, it was good to see them together. I don't like how they exclude her first two albums from the set, but that's not my call.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Album, April 7 2003
This review is from: Aaliyah (Audio CD)
I finally bought an Aaliyah album after watching her grow over the years. I was impressed with this music, and saddened that it was the last. I don't have to go into detail, since the songs are blowing up the radio. A great body of work, and the DVD is a welcome addition, but it should have included all videos IMHO, like Janet's.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good starting season..., April 7 2003
I started watching Buffy at the end of season one, so watching these for the first time was cool. I was great learning all of the background on the story. So, it was more educational for me. The story telling wasn't too great though. Buy season 3 for the complete package. Buy this one only if you're a fan--like me.
