Customer Reviews

An almsot perfect compilation
Although I must say that this collection does contain most of Ms.Day's greatest hits, and that I was happy that My darling,My Darling (her duet with Buddy Clark)was included--the remixing of the original Columbia master tapes leaves alot to be desired. This is a problem with all their 16 Most Requested series of CD's. Columbia recordings were famous for the use of reverb--echo, if you will--which added a distintiveness to their recordings. Shaghai, and A Guy is A Guy, in their original 45 versions posssed this "reverb" which is missing from the remasted versions--they sound very flat,and take away from the integrity of the originals. I feel Sony should think of this if nay new pressings of these Cd's ever occur.

fine album geared toward casual fans and newcomers
Sixteen (16) Most Requested Songs offers a very nice assortment of songs by a fine singer, Doris Day. Doris sounds great on this album; the sound quality is really very good. In addition, I like the artwork.

"Sentimental Journey" starts the track set with hardly any surface noise from this 78 version; the musical arrangement is terrific! "It's Magic" features Doris front and center and the strings sound so sweet in combination with Doris' voice. I really like "It's Magic" and I think that you will, too--it was a huge hit for Doris Day. When you hear "It's Magic," there won't be any doubt as to why it was a hit for Doris! Listen also for "Again;" Doris never sounded better and she doesn't even sing a single superfluous note! Great!

"Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered" shines like gold when Doris sings this so beautifully; the music complements Doris' vocals flawlessly and it makes the song very pretty. "Would I Love You, Love You, Love You" gets the royal treatment from Doris who performs this with panache and a lot of heart and soul. I love it!

"A Guy Is A Guy" may be a tad dated; but I enjoy it every time I hear Doris sing it. The backup vocalists bolster Doris' performance and it all holds its own very well. "When I Fall In Love" is truly very impressive; the number stuns me with its beauty and Doris aces this easily. "When I Fall In Love" is easily a highlight of this album.

"Secret Love" was another huge hit for Doris; and when you hear it you'll be charmed just as I am. This tune features Doris in the spotlight and the music sounds great as Doris sings this. There's also ""If I Give My Heart To You;" the backup singers sound great but make no mistake about it--this is Doris's number and she bats this one straight out of the ballpark!

"Whatever Will Be, Will Be (Que Sera, Sera)" is not just my favorite Doris Day hit--it's also one of my very favorite songs of all time. Doris truly owns this song and she sings it with all her heart and soul.

This CD is a great starter for people just becoming fans of Doris Day; diehard fans may already have these numbers in their collections. Casual fans will also like this CD; and people who enjoy classic pop vocals will not be disappointed.

Favorite Female Singer of All Time!
This is the first Doris Day album I have ever bought, though I have adored her since I was a young girl. It is a fabulous collection of early career songs with a few later ones tossed in. I have heard Secret Love hundreds of times, no exageration, and it still brings me to tears. The lyrics are beautiful, but it is most definitly Ms Day's beautiful voice that makes that song what it is, Spectacular! I just ordered three more Doris Day albums. Thank you Doris, for brightening our world!
