Sheena Easton Album: “Freedom [Limited]”

Realy, I like the CD. Because I am form Argentina and here the CD was not edited. I recommend you listen the "Misty blue" song- Excellent. And the others. Thanks.

I can't begin to describe my frustration with the way Ms. Easton's career has gone. Due to hum-drum writing and poor lyrics, Ms. Easton has never found a writer's voice deserving enough to be the vessel for her own talent. Depressingly, Freedom is nothing more than another notch in the album belt. With the exception of Misty Blue, the songs are flat and entirely forgettable. And whomever recycled Modern Girl should be fired from his/her P.R. job! The only upside here however has to do with the continuing development of Ms. Easton's voice. It beckons towards the Blues and longs for another album of classics like No Strings. There is raw talent here, even polished. We, the listeners, and Ms. Easton just need some song lyrics worthy enough and large enough to resonate and have an impact. For whatever reason, the power ballad wanna-bes keep finding a home in Ms. Easton's musical repertoire. Give us a break and set her Free!!!

Being a big Sheena Easton fan, I can't tell you how disappointed I was with this album. Given that it is an import, even more so. When the CD opens with a children's chorus singing la la la la, I knew I was in trouble.

Sheena's voice is a apppealing as ever, but the material here is very blah, very forgetable. Songs like "One Man", "Misty Blue", and "Love Will Make You Wise" keeps the CD from the trash can. These should be pleasant album tracks, not the standouts.

This CD is an example of why Sheena doesn't have a U.S. record deal. She needs to reteam with Greg Matheson or Chris Neal; producers that made her successful and a star.
