 What a surprise CD ! April 10, 2000
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I purchased this CD on a whim, and what a wonderful surprise! I knew anything from Gloria would be good, but I cannot even decide on a favorite song here! So many times, covered songs are so-so, not here, though. Gloria's beautiful range and wonderful accent will steal your heart. If it's possible to wear out a CD, this will be the one!
Gloria does a good job with these covers July 28, 2001

My two favorite songs on this CD are "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me" and "Turn The Beat Around." The other tracks are wonderful too. When I got this CD as a present, I didn't realize the songs were covers of 50's, 60's, and 70's hits, but I was pleasantly surprised when I found out. With this CD, Gloria pays tribute to the singers and groups she has admired through the years. Before each song she includes a little background story on what it means to her, and why she included it. "Everlasting Love" and "Turn The Beat Around" are the spiciest covers, both have a techno feel. She stays pretty true to the originals with the rest. I highly recommend this CD, especially if you like oldies, because she does these songs justice. I love it!
Great covers of classic songs January 2, 2001

Gloria has done an excellent job of covering these classic songs. From ballads to disco the whole album is great and fun to listen to. The old songs get a new freshness. The booklet has all the lyrics and each song has a small note above it by Gloria, telling an anecdote or story about that particular song, of how she came to record it, or of a special memory it holds for her. A bit of a change from her latin/dance albums, but a special treat for her fans. If you are a fan of Gloria, or of these songs, you will enjoy this album.
Fantastic! October 2, 1999

Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me is an excellent collection of classic hit songs. Gloria's voice is perfect on this album! My favorite song: It's Too Late. And God, she looked great in the music video for that song!
Even singers "wax nostalgic" on occasion! November 6, 2005

Estefan's 1994 release is a collection of songs of which she has an unending fondness. They run the spectrum of pop classics to disco ditties. Like a good segment of her fan base, Gloria is a "baby boomer" and these songs are perfect reminiscences of earlier musical times.
My favorites are her covers of "Everlasting Love," "You've Made Me So Very Happy," "Turn the Beat Around," "Love on a Two-Way Street" and the Copacabana-sounding "Cherchez La Femme".
On the disc's liner notes, each song is preceded by Estefan's commentary on the respective song's influence on her. Not only does the singer love the songs but she has an unabiding affection for the persons that originally performed them.
And her admiration is shown in her delivery and the buyer can experience equally shared enjoyment.
