 WONDROUS MINNELLI MASTERPIECE~BRAVO LIZA!!!!!!!!! February 26, 2005
31 out of 33 found this review helpful
Liza Minnelli scored big in Europe with this versatile masterpiece which contains extraordinary and richly shaded vocals by Minnelli throughout!!! American Radio with its burned-out and soulless programmers missed out big-time on a real classic that should have been a huge mega-hit and multi-Grammy winning collection as it is a richly varied and extremely moving collection of pop and rock masterpieces...opening with a smoldering & soulful Liza vocal that soars through a stunningly complex arrangement is the haunting classic "I Want You Now" and this captivating song would have been a huge hit if given any airplay at all...the huge Euro-mega hit "Losing My Mind" is another gem that also would have been a mega-hit in the US if only we had just a few programmers around the country who loved great music but its a sad fact and a real shame that we don't and since the late 80's this situation has further deteriorated to the point now that if something is great then it's a sure bet that it will never be played on the radio...this explains why the music industry that has foolishly allowed itself to be built less and less on real talent over the years has experienced continually growing audience apathy which has resulted bottom line in declining sales...big surprise!!!! You simply cannot build a strong and lasting fan base on weak and marginal talent but for some strange reason this is the continued practice...somebody in the music industry needs to wake up and smell the coffee!!! Sweeping orchestrations and great Liza vocals shine throughtout this wonderous collection and "If There Was Love" and "So Sorry, I Said" are poignant performances from Liza that are deeply moving and richly dramatic. Rocking and infectious is the cooking and classic "Don't Drop Bombs" that will amaze those who didn't realize that Liza can rock out with the best of them...this greatness continues with the funky euphoric rocker "Twist In My Sobriety" which features a magical and magnificent Minnelli vocal in a song full of fascinating twists and turns...a haunting and dramatic Minnelli vocal is brilliantly showcased in the sublime "Rent" and by now it is clear that The Pet Shop Boys knew that they would be making a masterpiece when they went into the studio with Liza and they achieved this beautifully! Bravo to The Pet Shop Boys for this wonderful and varied collection of great songs and to Liza for just being Liza...a dance club classic "Love Pains" is masterful with Liza again in great and hypnotic form with a wide open warm vocal that is infectious and powerful...singing from the depths of her soul making "Tonight Is Forever" a stirring and magnificent epic that soars and builds to glorious heights...closing with the jazzy and soulful "I Can't Say Goodnight" make this stunning collection end perfectly. This extended collection also contains bonus tracks and sublime videos on a DVD that are incredible...these videos are the greatest ever from any DIVA and some kind of award like a special Oscar in the music world should be given to Liza for these phenomenal and highly unique performances...for anyone who wants to experience this Legendary Superstar and peerless singer at her absolute peak, do not miss this extraordinary collection...BRAVO LIZA MINNELLI!!!
One of the finest ever collaborations... January 24, 2005

Poor old Liza. She's had some bad experiences of late, and a history of drug & relationship problems. I'm hoping that one day she'll get her personal life sorted and be truly happy. In the meantime we have this re-release of one of the best albums of the late 80's. Liza & the Pet Shop Boys: what a truly winning combination, and the results, excuse the pun, are outstanding. All the joy, excitement, pain, & insecurity apparent in many relationships is captured here. Lyrically,this is the Pet Shop Boys at their very best and Liza sure knows how to bring these lyrics to life. This is not a cheerful album, in fact some if it is very moody...but thats exactly how it's supposed to be: I mean, Liza singing an album of pop dance ditties? there's no way that would have worked. Thankfully, in the hands of Neil Tennant & Chris Lowe, that didn't happen and they came up with a classic.
From the angst of "Losing my mind", the hope of "If there was love" and the despair of the incredibly sad "So sorry, I said". Moving on with the storming "Don't drop bombs", and the excellent cover of "Rent" (which features some great singing from Liza and a superb orchestration courtesy of Anne Dudley), through to the old HI-NRG standard "Love Pains" and finishing with the eternal "I can't say goodnight" (again, some great vocals here). Yep, it's all here: Great music, great production & arrangements and some superb singing. Some of these tracks still move me today as much as they did back in 1989 when this album was first released.
Liza never really managed to follow this up with anything of an equally high standard. So this album, for me at least, is a moment in time. If you never liked Liza, this may not convert you. However, if you do and maybe missed out on this the first time, this is your chance to discover Liza Minnelli's finest hour. No question about it...definately 5 stars.

This is truly a great album, and I just wanted to say that "Region 0" means that a DVD is playable all over the world, so don't worry about the post saying it won't work because it isn't region 1.
Great collaboration that gets better with time April 22, 2005

'Results' is one of those rare collaborations that works. The Pet Shop Boys producing Liza Minnelli was a great idea from the first moment it was announced. What could have been a cheesy camp classic, turned out to be an elegant, moody, and textured record. Liza's voice never sounded better. The Boys reigned in her vocals, and they are tight and sleek throughout, particularly on 'Rent', 'Tonight Is Forever', and the languid 'I Can't Say Goodnight'.
Bathed in late 80s techno, 'Results' has actually aged very well. Both 'Losing My Mind' and 'Love Pains' remain vibrant club classics, and the Liza-with-a-Z rap on 'Twist on My Sobriety' remains inventive and witty, a perfect example of the Pet Shop Boys' sharp producing skills.
One could say this is an album only a gay man could love, and while, yes, many gay men (like myself) adore this album, it's actually such a unique collaboration, that many others will enjoy this underrated gem as well.
Fantastic Album!!! August 4, 2005
