Emotions


Her sophomore, '92 album.

Emotions
Her #1 hit from her collaboration with David Cole and Robert Civilles. It hints the swing of Someday, but the direction this time is not headed towards broken love, but newfound love instead. It's another great 'street song', as Cole put it.
And You Don't Remember
The lyrics are so powerful in this song. You truly do feel for the character and vicariously feel her pain.
Can't Let Go
This joins the ranks of I Don't Wanna Cry and Love Takes Time. It combines a dreamy, light feeling with surges of emotions and realization of the harsh realities of life.
Make It Happen
This is a song about pure determination. We need more of these songs. I listen to this whenever I'm down to pick myself up. "If you believe in yourself and know what you want, you're going to make it happen." This song is very powerful when you hear it in her concerts (when she really belts it out). Gospel.
If It's Over
Her collaboration with Carole King, making this song absolutely classic.
You're So Cold
This song's about her astonishment at how her lover can be 'so cold' to her. Great chorus, and catchy tune.
So Blessed
This song is a manifestation of golden sunshine. That's the feeling I got, and it reminds me of the dawn. She feels 'so blessed' in the arms of her lover. This song grew on me. One day, I was playing the CD, and I heard the lyrics. I put everything down and read the lyrics, which were absolutely beautiful.
To Be Around You
Another one from R.C. and D.C.!!! It's like emotions, but better in it's own way. It's upbeat, and very catchy.
Till the End of Time
This, to me, is a little bit like 'So Blessed'. MANY people like this song, and it surprised me that that many people enjoy it as much as I do. It's like 'So Blessed' in the way that the lyrics are gorgeous, but the music is stronger. "Tell me what you need, let me give you all of me- Every moment I'm alive, until the end of time."
The Wind
It deals about the death of a loved one. Very sad, and nice in a subtle, different way. Piano based.
