5 out of 5 stars Fabulous Ute. Buy both German and English versions!!!.......2005-10-04

`Berlin Cabaret Songs' by Ute Lemper are issued as part of London recording company's `Entartete Musik' series or music suppressed by the Third Reich. One of the very best things about this issue is the fact that Ms. Lemper and London have issued the album in two versions. One is in the original German and one is sung entirely in English.

For starters, I strongly suggest you listen to both, but if you simply have no interest in listening to the German version, I will reassure you that the English performance is musically virtually identical to the German. The instrumentals almost sound as if they were done Kareoke style, with Ms. Lemper's English or German mixed in afterwards. I'm almost certain this was not actually done, as the translations probably changed a few things here and there about the meter of the lyrics, but I could find nothing in the instrumental or vocal performances to prefer in one over the other, except for the genuine experience of hearing it the same way as the cabaret audiences in Berlin would hear it.

Ms. Lemper's English interpretations, as they are in all her earlier albums, is impecible. It also seems to be about as accent free as you can imagine. Not only is it free of German inflections, it is free of a British accent as well, so it should sound great to American ears.

The first thing which strikes me about the lyrics of these songs is that to my ear, there is practically nothing which is critical or even satiric of a specific government. There is not even much which is sexually explicit, let alone lewd. Some pieces from Kurt Weill in `Mahagonny' may be more objectionable than most songs in this album. One thing that tells us is exactically how extremely conservative the Nazis were about any art whatsoever. The most strident politically oriented song is in favor of women's rights and makes no mention of the Nazi government or any other political party for that matter.

The only weakness of the album may be that virtually all this material is unfamiliar to the average listener, so we don't have the pleasure of seeing how Ms. Lemper does a new version of, for example, `Bilbao Song' or Jacques Brel's `Amsterdam'. But then, I relish any chance whatsoever to hear Ms. Lemper sing. She is still fresh and free of the kind of syrupy sweetness we get from, for example, Barbra Streisand, these days from her `Guilty Pleasures' album.

5 out of 5 stars Eine Schoene Album!.......2004-09-25

Wow! This beautiful and immensely talented dame knows how to thrill. The album is absolutely superb. And auf Deutsch! There are many jazzy and big band type numbers and some that are a little more folky. But the satire, the humour, the depth of the lyrics, along with the pure artistry and sophistication Ute Lemper brings to the material is quite refreshing, despite the fact that some uncomfortable and depressing topics are covered. What a relief, a modern artist that encourages her audience actually to think! Thank you so much Ute for such a treasure and bringing these important songs to our attention; with all that is going on in our politics and the world these Berlin songs are even more poignant for our times than one may suppose.

5 out of 5 stars English version available?.......2001-07-05

I recieved this disc for review when I was a radio station DJ about three years ago. However the disc I got, which was on Polygram, was in English. So try to get the English disc if you don't speak German - the translations are great, you'd think the songs were written in English. It has the same title I think, if it is still available. One other reviewer here said that he found the album more relevant to his life than the entire top 40 and I say 'hear, hear' to that. And Ms. Lemper's heffy Cherman eccent is delightful!

5 out of 5 stars Un disco de primera categoría........2001-03-27

Sencillamente extraordinario, la maravillosa voz de Ute Lemper nos hace vivir unos momentos de fantasía y alegría indescriptibles. Muchas de mis secciones musicales terminan con éste maravilloso disco (Obviamente que lo tiene que comprar cantado en Alemán). Es uno de mis discos favoritos y tengo más de 2.500 CDs.

300% RECOMENDADO

5 out of 5 stars Stellar.......2000-10-29

A beautiful album, dripping with emotions: longing, irony, cynicism, sarcasm, love (yes, love), anger, humor. And Ute Lemper transmits those emotions like no other performer I know. At least some of the song writers/composers fled to the US to escape Nazi Germany, and had distinguished careers here, too. The songs are beautiful, with meaningful lyrics that aren't just the blindingly obvious ideas and sentimentality offered by a lot of recent "political" songs.

5 out of 5 stars Ute, Ute, what would we do without you (and these songs)?.......2000-09-02

This album is absolutely to DIE for! These songs, as everyone knows, are still very effective today, so it is schocking to think that they were first written in the 1920s and `30s. But when you are supressed (like the Germans were during this time) things come out. The rousing anthems on this album run the gamut from gay pride ("The Lavender Song") to women's rights ("Chuck Out the Men!") and everything in between. There are also wistful, beautiful (yet unsentimental) numbers like "I Don't Know Who I Belong To" and "A Little Yearning," though there is still enough room for sentimental propaganda, like in the very moving "Munchhausen." Ute's duet with herself, "When the Special Girlfriend," a lesbian pride song, is a hoot! Then there are the stinging, biting social commentary songs, like "It's All a Swindle" and "The Smart Set," which is one of the best satirical songs I've ever heard. The funniest song on the album is, without a dought, "Maskulinum-Femininum," which cracks me up every time. Getting these classic songs in English is a real treat, as it helps them speak to a larger (maybe) audience. Thank you, thank you, thank you Ms. Lemper, for this excellent album! The world is a better place because of it!

5 out of 5 stars These songs have not lost their pertinence or their punch........2000-07-30

Ute Lemper, perhaps the pre-eminent European cabaret singer of our day, does a brilliant job putting across these songs. While songs such as "I Am a Vamp" come across as snazzy, funny period pieces, others--"It's All a Swindle," "Chuck Out the Men," "The Lavender Song," and "Munchhausen"--have lyrics which are just as pertinent and biting in Y2K America as they were in 1930 Berlin. (That doesn't speak well for today's society, needless to say.) These songs--and Lemper's performances of them--are like brilliant mirrors held up to reveal the hypocrisy of the Weimar Republic. If you can bear the shock of recognizing yourself in them, this CD is for you.

5 out of 5 stars I love this cd!.......1999-02-01

I bought this cd in german, and appreciated it, but wasn't in love. Then my girlfriend went to see a production of Cabaret, loved IT, and i found more enjoyment in the german edition. The next day, I found this english version, and immediately fell in love with the songs. A wide range of songs (feminism, gay rights, anti hitlerism, and songs of love) pepper the subject matter. THe tone of the writing is racy of fun, tinged with seriousness and a bit of sadness. Ute's voice is fantastic throughout, she carries each song through thoroughly.

4 out of 5 stars This was Motown's PRINCE. Hot house album........2004-12-10

Multi-talented GEORGIO is the first since STEVIE WONDER and RICK JAMES to pick up multiple instruments and do-it-all,themselves. Like PRINCE,he happens to have that look and body too. Unlike PRINCE,he hits with dance/house music while PRINCE does funk/pop/rock.

I sold my CD. If I can remember. I can't remember the track listing but it has 12" versions of "Lovers Lane","Tina Cherry",the title track and "Bedrock". The other four songs are like new wave and ballad attempts.

GEORGIO isn't a Motown artist. Motown has a certain sound that they have not shied away from for decades before GEORGIO came. Even in RICK JAMES' music you can tell it's Motown. It was in his sound. Motown never had a house artist. Times are changing.

    Album Description

    The charismatic mezzo-soprano, Jean Stilwell, is one of Canada's most versatile artists - one who has that rare ability to light up any stage on which she performs. In addition to her extensive recital, concert and operatic performances, Stilwell has also garnered rave reviews for her smoldering approach to cabaret music, including the songs of William Bolcom and Benjamin Britten, Kurt Weill and Arnold Schoenberg, to those made famous by Edith Piaf, Marlene Dietrich, Zara Leander and Lotte Lenya. Her recording of French mélodies and cabaret, Les Chemins de l'amour, was heralded by the press, making the late Toronto music critic Urjo Kareda's list of the "Best Recordings of the Year 1999".

    5 out of 5 stars A little repetitive, but great........2006-03-22

    The one I bought had a different cover, but the same tracklist. It's nice to hear extended versions, as well as previously unreleased tracks.

    My only gripe with the score is the slight clipping on some of the tracks, and this is the case with every recording that I have heard.

    This is a great score, and along with the solid performances by the actors, makes the film great.

    5 out of 5 stars SUBLIME! MUSICAL PERFECTION! 10 STARS NOT ENOUGH........2005-04-06

    Ennio Morricone's score for Cinema Paradiso is inspired. There is, in my opinion, no more perfectly-suited score for a film. I purchased the original DRG version as soon as possible after seeing the film. The great thing about this "newer" version is that is features additional tracks--the more the better, in this case. Melodic, sweet, nostalgic, and lyrical. The absolute best of Morricone, universally acclaimed, and among the favorites of the composer's admirers [and there are legions]. A wonderfully engaging listening experience apart from the film.

    One of my favorite selections [that may not be an obvious choice for many] is the medley that underscores the movie-reel montage, where the composer takes the main theme and plays it in different styles, including dixieland, swing, and lush-romantic. The love theme, co-composed by the Maestro's son Andrea [then a budding composer], is almost too beautiful. This is music that sweeps you along, rising and falling at just the right moment.

    This music has been widely emulated in commercials to evoke nostalgia for a time-gone-by. And, for good reason, it's just plain delightful.

    ABSOLUTE ESSENTIAL TOP 5 MORRICONE ON ANYONE'S LIST.

    5 out of 5 stars brilliant, premiere!.......2005-01-01

    fast shipping from caiman_com, I ordered it during the Christmas holidays and received it right before the New Year's Eve. Far beyond my estimation! Besides, the most important thing is the soundtract. This CD has 23 tracts. I compared this one with another version: "Cinema Paradiso: Original Soundtrack Recording (1988 Film) [SOUNDTRACK]" and found out that the former one included all the tracts the latter had and much more than that. The price between these two version is very similar. That's why I bought this imported soundtract! The quality of the songs is perfect!

    This CD is a great companian with the original movie! It will remind you of every sentimental scene in the film. Highly recommanded!

    Mary Carewe is a Britisher with impeccable taste in lyrics and a delightful and fascinating voice. This is high-toned cabaret or, as she dubs her intimate program, "serious cabaret". If you like Ute Lemper or Bolcom and Morris, you'll enjoy Mary Çarewe. This is her only solo CD to date, but I can't help but believe that more are in the works for this talented soprano. Her big vocal range is matched by her big voice, which regularly accompanies symphonic orchestras in the UK and Europe in programs of modern music and pop, i.e., would you believe a program of James Bond film title songs with the Hallé orchestra?

      5 out of 5 stars Discovery..........2004-08-07

      I have never seen an episode of Dawson's Creek or any of the other shows mentioned on the CD wrapper, I have seen "All I Want", an idependant film staring Elijah Wood. Two of Evan Olson's songs ('Not What I Wanted' and 'Ticking Away'), are on the soundtrack. I love all the music in the film but Evan Olsons's stood out so I went in search of his music and found "RED". I felt like Garfield eating lasagne for the first time...had I died and gone to heaven?
      I have a wide range in musical taste and this music satisfies my audio palate. It has what I would call an "up-to-the-minute-Retro" feel to it. It's fresh and new but with '70's pop and rock influences.
      I am appalled that I had let Mr. Olson's music slip past me for so long. I amend my ways though. I am a new fan!
      As Admiral Byrd might have said when he flew over the North Pole "This is so cool!"

      if you like Matthew Sweet, Dave Mathews or Craig David, you will dig this CD!

      it's extra fun because i know these songs from my favorite TV shows: Smallville, Alias, Felicity, Dawson's Creek, Sex and the City, etc.

      5 out of 5 stars Champagne Pop.......2002-10-13

      Evan Olson's CD "Red" is sparkling pop, as effervescent as champagne. The CD may be titled "Red," but its cover is blue while the music pulses with energy & imagination. With 20 songs on the CD, it's an ambitious effort. Five of the songs are my favorites. The opener "I Can't Forget" is a bubbly pop tune with insurgent guitars, "Time moving like a river, I watch the sun rise in your eyes." "Love, stranger than a freight train rolling down the tracks across my heart; You, more beautiful than love, I knew that I was in it from the start," Evan sings in a high voice with a chorus of background vocals on the upbeat tune "Beautiful World." "Settled" is a gorgeous pop tune with high vocals that float cloudlike over the strum of guitars. "Burn Me Down" rocks hard with an upbeat melody, "Bad days come & bad days go then everything's just fine." My very favorite is "Silly Grin" with a pulsing bass line that would have been comfortable on the "Bus Stop" CDs. There are no weak tracks on this CD. Olson's music is happy, energetic pop that's fun to listen to again & again. Enjoy!

      A lot of music here... Evan writes some extraordinary songs, and has a lot of instrumental talent as well. Although the CD is a little on the "pop" side, the breadth of his talent shines through. Buy this!

      5 out of 5 stars Good Stuff Guys--Give Evan A Chance!.......2002-09-12

      Evan has loaded up his third album with 21 really good pop songs!
      I am well aware of Evan's musical past and I do think he's softened up a bit from the days as the Majosha frontman. Layin' down the funk! And then he moved on to Bus Stop (a solid rock band) as the lead vocalist/rhythm guitarist.
      And since he went solo he cleaned up his sound, softened it up a bit and is now gearing it up for pop radio. Not a bad thing. Just another step in Evan's musical evolution.
      My point being--check this record out. It's good. It's contents contain, arguably, Evan's two best songs: "I Can't Forget," and "Not What I Wanted."
      Listen and enjoy.

      3 out of 5 stars The Bonus Track Was Unnecesary.......2002-02-03

      The three main themes from "Cinema Paradiso", composed by Ennio and Andrea Morricone are fabulous and extremely touching. I really love them. However, they are repeated throughout this CD, with the sole exception of 'While Thinking About Her Again', 'Cinema On Fire', and 'Four Interludes'.

      The main title is best represented on 'Cinema Paradiso' (track 1). 'Love Theme For Nata' is a fantastic nod for the love theme. And the theme for the child Toto is the one that I praise the most, and it's heard on 'Childhood And Manhood', even though it's repeated on 'First Youth'. And I have to say that the bonus track on this CD, which is a version of the theme played by the string section of the orchestra, was definitely unnecessary because it's a repetition of track 1.

      It's a shame that such a marvelous work from Ennio Morricone gets lost in so many repetitions. One thing that makes this CD attractive though, as opposed to the original release, is that the sound is better recorded.

      3 out of 5 stars Great Soundtrack, Disappointed CD.......2001-08-06

      It's a shame that, after all these years, they re-released this wonderful soundtrack CD without correcting an annoying problem found on the original release. I'm talking about the "electronic noise" (???) that can be heard on the track "Love Theme". About one-third of the way into that song, if you pay attention, you will hear the "scratching" sound for about a second or two. This really destroys that song. Everytime I listen to that track, as soon as I'm starting to really get into it, my mind keeps anticipating that annoying sound, which in turn, makes it a very unpleasant listening experience. The only difference between this release and the original (1989/1990) release is that this latest release has an extra track (string version of "Cinema Paradiso"). However, this extra track isn't better than the original performance/recording of the song (Track 1). Therefore, if you already own the original release, you don't gain anything by buying this latest release. The reason that I gave this CD three stars is because of the problem with the song "Love Theme" as mentioned above. There really are only three great tracks (songs) on this soundtrack CD: "Cinema Paradiso", "Love Theme" and "First Youth". If you take away the enjoyment of listening to one of these three great songs, it leaves only two for you to enjoy.
