all i can do in this review is say words that to me describe these songs and this wonderful lady, i'll stop when i run out of steam; smooth, lush, comfortable, loungey, gorgeous, deep, insightful, sweet, wonderfully accompanied, caring, almost mother-goddess like, understated, passionate, perfect!
Fairuz is the only vocalist who to me is able to rival Karen Carpenter in terms of tone quality, breath control (sorry, don't mean to sound so technical, but it is breath control), and delivery. In fact you know what, I think she might even beat KC! From me that's saying something (sorry Karen).
