I bought the single "Love and Tears" back in the 90s, and enjoyed it up to a point. I liked the Soulshock remixes better than the original version though.
br /[...].
br /TOTALLY worth it! In fact, "Love and Tears" is one of the 'worst' tracks; though even that is very cool, with its sassy Middle-Eastern charms and ambient textures. (7/10)
br /I Want to Live is produced by the fantastic Beatmasters and the track is dancey yet soulful. (8/10.) "Ride a White Swan", the cover of T-Rex's hit is very well done indeed. It totally suits Naomi's voice and she pulls it off effortlessly. (8/10).
br /!Life of Leisure" is semi-grungy but don't let that put you off: Naomi convinces yet again with another catchy, good vocal track. Good production. (8/10. "Babywoman", the title track, is a definite highlight. It still sounds current and is oozing in elan and class. (9/10).
br /"Looks Swank (Spooky)" is my 2nd favourite from this album. Sixties feel amidst a hip-hopped sexy breathy catchy coquettish track. (10/10.) "Picnic in the Rain" is lush. Beautiful vocal tones, lovely mellow music. Great production. Wow! (8.5/10.)
br /"When I think About Love", is a bit corny for my liking; the sort of naff ballad you'd find on a Ce Ce Peniston album. However, her voice is nice here. It's just the tuneless music letting it down. (6/10.) Track 9 is simply breathtaking. It really
br /showcases Naomi's beautiful, expressive voice. The music is mellifluously smooth and the melody is so darn catchy and joyous, it won't leave your soul. This is the definite highlight: (11/10.)
br /Zoe's "Sunshine On a Rainy Day", the Top 5 smash from 1991 is a fantastic dance classic. Here, Naomi covers it. Produced by the same team: Youth. Alas, this is rather bad. Dull music and insipid reworked melody. A real let-down to "Babywoman". (2/10.)"I want to Live" (Reprise). This is just a quick burst of track 2. It's not surplus though. It adds a nice finish to the album, finishing on a good note,with one of the album's better tracks; it wouldn't have done if it was "Sunshine on a Rainy Day" playing us out! (7/10.)
br /I am glad I finally bought this CD, even if it is 13 years later. It hasn't aged at all. Despite the terrible "Sunshne On a Rainy Day" and dull, boring "When I Think About Love", this album gets 5/5 overall as the good tracks really are HOT! They alone are certainly worth
br /investing in this. It's a shame Naomi hasn't brought out any music since this. This album was a huge success in Japan, and I can see why. Rumour has it that Simon Cowell offeref to relaunch Naomi's pop career recently; she refused him sadly. Check this out.
 I actually think she has a sultry and girlesque voice October 7, 2005

Tracks Worth listening to:-brLove and tears (Mystical /dreamy)brI want to Live ( Dancey - why did the record co. not release)brRide a white swan ( different- Marianne Faithfull (ish)brLife of leisure ( leeezure as she purrrrrss )brPicnic in the rain (funky beats slow)brWhen I think about love ( croaky cover)brAll through the night ( sexxy)brSunshine on a rainy day ( rocky cover)pSince the days of 90s and glorious Gianni Versace shameless rock chique days Naomi Campbell has impacted society whether you like her or not. Ignore all the trashy tabloid rumours about her tantrums and late attendance- were you there... NO! And listen to this album . She actually has a good voice for a little old model.. follow the likes of Carla Bruni (Italian Supermodel /ex beau of Stone ) and listen to these foxes actually singbrIve had this album since it was released and I still get pleasure from listening to it from beginning to end.brFor those who cant bear the thought of listening to the whole CD just because you loathe her take time to listen to the above tracks that I recommend. She maybe idolised in the fashion industry but is underated in her musical talentpAm I the only one in the Uk who bought this CD , would like to hear form other s who also bought it
