Crayons

Every song on this CD is very catchy and entertaining. Why it only made it into the top 20 is anyones guess. I vote now for Grammy nominations in best Dance CD and Best dance song for either Stamp your Feet or I am
Fire, Madonna eat your heart out!

I found out about this new CD (her first in 17 years!) by accident. I ordered it...and have just about worn it out already. There are 12 tracks on this CD, and I enjoyed every one of them--something that is very rare for the garbage that is being released under the guise of music these days.

The CD starts off with four upbeat (and very danceable) tunes: Stamp Your Feet, Mr. Music, Crayons, and The Queen is Back. The Queen is Back is Donna's self-parody. I did a little reading about this CD, and she was actually reluctant to entitle this tune this name because she thought that was being too snooty! The one torch song on here is "Be Myself Again." It's words are haunting. "You can have all these hopes and dreams. The ones I can't use anymore." The last song, "Bring Down the Reign," moved me to tears. Although not pinpointed as to exactly what "reign" she's singing about, I think it would be safe to say Darfur and Rawanda leap to mind.

Ms. Summer wrote (or co-wrote) all these songs, as she did when she first began recording way-back-when. That takes talent, my friends. She doesn't have to be "over produced" because she can sing. My friends used to (well, they still do) kid me about a statement I made about her. I always said that if angels DO exist and they have a singing voice, it will sound like Ms. Summer's. Her pipes have not lost any of their power and I, for one, am glad the Queen is back!

Highly recommended.

I've always been a Donna Summer fan! Loved this CD...except for the added synthesizer "clapping" sounds. Seems to drown out Donna's vocals! Oh well! It's the new sound!

Anyway, I still loved the CD! Donna is still the disco diva! Her voice is terrific!...even at her age! WOW!

Love you Donna!

Her Best recording Since the Giorgio Moroder Years (1974-1980).
Good News No Timbaland around,
Madonna can go swallow again her Lollipops.

Yes, the Queen is back. Donna Summer's latest project Crayons is a gem from start to finish. With all new material penned by Donna, this music will make you groove, smile and reflect on your life. I can't remember the last time I enjoyed an album as much as I have Crayons. Thank you Donna. The Queen is back indeed!
