Album Review
Donna Summer sounds younger here than on her previous studio album, 1991's Mistaken Identity, or just about any of the isolated tracks that surfaced throughout the previous 17 years, which is a good thing as frequently as it is a bad thing. Crayons benefits from Summer's effortless energy; she was clearly into making this album, and her voice is as able and flexible as ever. However, almost all of the material with which she has to work — several stylistic angles are taken with the likes of Danielle Brisebois (Natasha Bedingfield, Kelly Clarkson) Greg Kurstin (Lily Allen, Nelly Furtado), J.R. Rotem (Leona Lewis, Trey Songz), and several others — would make more sense on an album by a female teen pop group from the U.K. or, in some cases, a young adult catering to the coffeehouse market. One exception, if only from a lyrical standpoint, is "The Queen Is Back," where Summer refers to herself in the third person, as well as her past: "So many years ago on the radio/She crept into your soul and learned to love you." But it's really the type of move you'd expect from an aspiring diva on her second or third album. In-fashion vocal effects, which Summer certainly does not need, detract from a handful of these tracks, but as a whole, the album won't have trouble pleasing fans who just want to hear their queen have a blast and tear it up.
Customer Reviews
The Queen is...in fact...back!!!!!
Although a mainstay on the concert circuit, and several chart-topping club tracks over the past 10+ years, this is 5-time Grammy winner Donna Summer's first collection of all original material in since 1991's "Mistaken Identity". Fans around the world can rejoice today, for the long dry spell is finally over. With a voice known around the world to ignite the dance floor, Ms. Summer delivers an album aptly titled "Crayons"...showcasing the many different colors to this remarkable voice and artist. While most of her contempories are sellings "oldies"...Donna is right up to the minute with a brand new batch of pop jams....all co-written by Donna alongside some of today's hottest young producers. Hit "purchase" right now...and start playing with your new box of "Crayons"..."""
The Greatest Album of her Career
Stamp Your Feet, maybe the first single, but every track on this brilliant set is stellar. Drivin' Down Brazil is breezy and sexy, as is I'm a Fire, but it is Science of Love that is the song of her career. Check it out. Slide Over Backwards is beyond words, out of this world, over-the top excellence. Be Myself Again rivals "There Will Always Be a You" as her best ballad, and Bring Down the Reign showcases Summer's political side and heart of gold. This woman is THE vocalist and stylist of our time. If you get a chance, find the track "It's Only Love". It is terrific. 5 STARS +
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G
To steal a line from Randy Jackson, Donna could sing the phone book and it would sound amazing. She could have played it safe by giving into age like many of her peers and make and album of jazz standards or ballads. But she said.. heck no! I wanna have fun and dance. This isn't a club album, but it's current and has tons of energy. Her vocals are as amazing. And don't worry, club mixes of all the tracks are coming! We will get our "Summer" fix on the dance floor too! Remember there would be no Madonna without the orignal Donna.
