Marion Raven Album: “Set Me Free”

I'm more of a metal head too; RATT and Obituary are my favorite bands. But when I heard m2m for the first time during the teen band craze, they were the real standouts. I can't believe the longevity of my enjoyment, which is part respect for wonderful music, but equally for the intelligence in the lyrics. I probably listen to Marion and Merit more than anyone else.

More important is the kind of role models they are. It's hard enough to provide sound guidance for kids in a time when parents aren't cool, so I've bought all their CD's for my niece and I'm now buying them for my daughter. They love it, and if I can contribute to their becoming empowered, independent and confident young women, I'm thrilled.

I"ll be honest.First off I'm what you would call a metal head.Motley Crue, Kiss, Dio, Black Sabbath and so on. I originally bought this because of Nikki Sixx (Motley Crue) working with her and saying she had what it takes. What a surprise! This girl has got some pipes. After hearing this cd I bought her other two. Laugh if you want to but I appreciate talent and man has she got it. Check out her duet with Meat Loaf on his last Bat Out Of Hell cd. It's a shame she most likely will not be as famous as the Britneys of the world but she should be.Now only if her and Ronnie James Dio could do a duet....well I can dream.

This is a true must have for any music fan. It is to bad that she is not more well known and played on the radio. Marion Raven formerly of the band M2M when she was younger. She rocks like no other female singer ever but at the same time she is beautiful and sweet the perfect combination. If you want to see what she is truly all about I recommend checking out her music videos on youtube. Alot of her songs are about love and the aftermath of a break up something that alot of us can relate to. I very highly recommend this, lets get the word out and help promote this amazing artist.

Awesome album by soon to be known singer/musician/songwriter. Great songs very well written and oh yeah, it really rocks!!!!!

If you remove the repeated songs on this disc pinched from "Here I Am" you are left with some really flat and uninteresting songwriting. Highly predictable, lyrically trite and frankly, a bit dated in a metal-chick mode.

The definite promise Raven showed in "Here I Am" is completely absent, and I fear another talent is lost to whatever happens when commerce triumphs over muse.
