Quality
New and Pre-Owned CD's. I try to buy the highest quality pre-owned cd's
for my customers. We spend many hours searching for the best pre-owned
cds from top-notch record dealers and wholesalers in our area. Many of
the cds we sell are in new or like new condition and some are still
factory sealed (will be noted). Our cds are sometime marked in some way
by the supplier, either with a hole punch through the bar code, a cut
through a side of the jewel case or a pen mark on the package itself.
These marks do not in any way affect the play ability of the cd. I
replace any jewel case with major damage (i.e. major cracks, broken
ears, etc.). All cover art is present unless otherwise noted. Please
contact me with any concerns before leaving feedback so we can resolve
them. Customer satisfaction is my goal and I appreciate your business!
Payment please in 5 days of auction close. Thanks!

Putting
together a strong sophomore follow up to her debut smash, Des'ree goes
right back to her winning formula of spiritualism, soul and super pop.
Avoiding the typical R&B rut of jeep-funk and hip-hop textures,
SUPERNATURAL is an album rooted in positive lyrical content, covering
everything from the past ("Best Days") to knowledge of self ("Proud To
Be A Dead.") Not diverging far from what works for her is what makes
the singer so special. With her voice as sweet and calming as ever,
Des'ree works with up-tempo radio-friendly songs ("What's Your Sign,"
"God Only Knows") and ballads ("I'm Kissing You," "Down By The River").
Other notable tracks are "Time," "Life" and a re-make of the classic
song "Fire," which Des'ree works into a modern day toe-tapper.
| | Editorial reviews | | ...SUPERNATURAL
is so rich in sonic delights that it's almost tempting to ignore the
words entirely. Don't. Des'ree's lyrics may not all be pearls of
wisdom, but there's a common-sense intelligence to what she says that
[is]...quietly inspiring... - Rating: B+ |
On her third album of adult RB, new age princess Des'ree offers up more
musical self-help tips and self-esteem makeovers for the chronically
lovesick and spiritually downhearted. And while there's nothing as
peacefully sublime as "You Gotta Be" (from 1994's I Ain't Movin') on
Supernatural, the listen is a soothing one. Credit Brit Des'ree herself
for this; her voice -- a reassuring tool that envelops everything
around it -- has never been better. Working her softened tones around
the mostly forgettable material (many of the songs try to rewrite "You
Gotta Be" by essentially sticking with the same formula of making
sophisticated urban soul), she creates a melodic new-age tone (complete
with a cover of Bruce Springsteen's "Fire")PLEASE VISIT MY EBAY STORE FOR MORE RARE CD'S! (CLICK ON RARE CD'S)

ROLLING STONE BIO Des'ree Biography
Setting uplifting songs of love and modern-city life to a mid-tempo,
hook-laden blend of reggae, calypso, rap, and British pop, Des'ree has
risen to the upper echelon of British RB. Although she failed to reach
an American audience with her 1992
duet with Terence Trent D'Arby, "Delicate," despite it being a Top Ten
hit in the U.K., she made up for it with her second album, I Ain't
Movin', two years later. The album's single, "You Gotta Be," became the
most played video on VH1, spent 80 weeks on the ~Billboard charts, and
was included on a highly visible tribute album for Diana, Princess of
Wales. Driven by the song's success, I Ain't Movin' sold more than 16
million copies. Des'ree kept the momentum going with an American tour
in 1995 with Seal and performed at the first-ever secular concert at
the Vatican. Her songs appeared in Spike Lee's film Clockers in 1995
and Baz Luhrmann's remake of Romeo and Juliet the following year. She
released her third album, Supernatural, in 1998. Born in a small
village south of London to parents from the Caribbean, Des'ree was
influenced by both cultures. After living in Barbados from the age of
11 until she was 14, she began writing poetry upon her return to
England.
GREAT REVIEW, GREAT CD!
Soulful and light
After a fair few years of slog, Des'ree finally made it into the charts
with hit single `You Gotta Be', followed by the radio-favourite `Life'.
In many ways this British soul album is similar to artists such as
Gabrielle (particularly during her early years). The lyrics of the
songs certainly have that uplifting feel to them, especially on such
fantastic tracks such as `You Gotta Be', which is every bit as good, if
not better than Gabrielle's `Dreams'. Comparisons are obviously going
to be made, but Des'ree is patently the better artist when listening to
her best songs, even if she isn't as consistent and as radio-friendly
(save some of her singles) as Gabrielle.There
are clear weaknesses to the album, namely the fact that Des'ree's often
plain daft lyrics don't work all the time. For instance, on the single
`Life', they work to a tee and are amusing as they are curiously
relevant to the song. Yet on tracks such as `Proud To Be A Dread', the
tired message of being yourself falls flat on words such as `some say
he should shave his head, but he's proud to be a dread'. Yet
underneath it all you get the feeling that Des'ree, who pens her songs
herself, isn't just trying to cash in on the `out there' bandwagon.
Particularly the last track on the album `You Gotta Be' is not only
catchy but also light, intelligent and inspiring. Of course, anyone's
who has heard the single that she released for the `Romeo and Juliet'
soundtrack will know that there's certainly more to Des'ree than meets
the eye. Crucially, she can also do soul a lot better than many other
artists. Her smooth vocals work perfectly on `I'm Kissing You' and
`Indigo Daisies'. Here is someone that's kind of a mixture between
Gabrielle and Sade yet never seems to achieve their success. She's
light, she's soulful and she's fun.
