Delightful
Had not heard Cilla's name for 30 years when I heard "You're My World" on an oldies channel. It reminded me of how I missed her talent and her immense enthustiasm for her music. I took a chance and bought this album.
Cilla is a refreshing change from the shrieking, scrawny female singers of today, where good looks and anything near high C makes you a star. Here is a voice with power and, more importantly, feeling.
Her huge hits, "You're My World" and "Alfie" are as moving as I remembered. But the real joy of this album is the songs not released in the U.S.A. over the years. I can't believe I enjoy her version of "Going Out of My Head" as much as Little Anthony's original. She's the only female artist I've heard pour the required emotion into "Lovin' Feeling", and her rousing rendition of "Anyone Who Had a Heart" is the best anywhere.
If, like me, you've just been reminded of Cilla after many years of not hearing her - do yourself a favor and buy this album. Good memories, good voice, and emotion.
A Diva To Treasure from the U.K.!!!!!!!!
This collection of songs from Britain's Cilla Black is a treasure! Who could forget this songstress from the 60's with that bright red hair and rich powerful voice???
Cilla's energetic vocal on "Take Me In Your Arms And Love Me" is a pleasure! "Something's Gotten Hold Of My Heart" is wonderful song full of tenderness as well as passion. "Goin' Out Of My Head" is a powerhouse performance!! "It's For You" was one of Cilla's major hits in the U.S. It is still rich and soulful today. The arrangement is unique and sophisticated. Cilla sounds wonderful on the 60's uptempo number "Something Tells Me". "I Don't Know How To Love Him" is a beautiful tribute to "Jesus Christ, Superstar". "Step Inside Love" is a hot number!!! Who could ever forget Cilla's hit song "You're My World"??? This is the singer to end them all when she cuts loose on this number!!! "Conversations" is a great ballad with emotion. Cilla was always perfect on Barharach songs, as she is on "Anyone Who Had A Heart". "What Good Am I" is a riveting number full of soul!!
Had Cilla Black had the right management after Brian Epstein's death, she could have gone on to be a huge international star. As it was, she was introduced to hosting variety television in the U.K. and did quite well in spite of the turn of events. Thankfully, we have these songs to fall back on.

Hearing Cilla sing "You're My World" brought back such a flood of memories.. Memories of a bygone era.. An era when female singers really had voices that could pull at your heartstrings and didn't need to be seen half naked and gyrating like kooch dancers in a sideshow while on stage.. Thank you for allowing me to feel young and in love for the first time, once again..
