Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Recorded with long-term writing partner John Leventhal, Whole New You is Shawn Colvin's first set of original songs since 1996's A Few Small Repairs. Having made her name in the late 1980s with the new folk movement, Colvin spent much of the 1990s cementing her position as a middle-of-the-road singer-songwriter tackling Ally McBeal issues on the way to Grammy heaven. It's business as usual on Whole New You, with a set of easy-going FM-friendly tunes built around everyday feminine concerns. The title track leans toward blandness, but the nicely arranged opener "Matter Of Minutes" provides a sense of resilience. "Anywhere You Go" has an undeniably delicious chorus, while the gently defiant closing piano and woodwind number "I'd Say I'm Sorry Now" rounds things off agreeably. Although there's little here to challenge new listeners, Whole New You won't displease Shawn Colvin's fans. --Mike Pattenden

Brilliant CD 24 April 2001
Format:Audio CD
I have just bought this CD and have been blown away by it.A long standing Sean Colvin fan, I think this is her best work to date.There's not a bad song on the CD, every one a well crafted gem.If you like Sean Colvin at all and appreciate good music, go out and buy it, you won't be disappointed.

How can Shawn Colvin still be relatively unknown in this country? Her stong, individual voice, her uniquivocal song writing ability surpasses even itself this time. The open track is unmissably Shawn Colvin, and while the albumn is reminiscent of Steady On and Poloroids there seems something new there as well. If I was to buy only one albumn this year, it would be this.

I had heard the title track on the radio so many times but I never managed to catch the title. Only after tuning ever radio to the same station did I eventually find out who it was. I immediately logged on to Amazon to see if I could get a copy. It hasn't been out of the player since. A fantastic mixture of songs from the 'pull yourself together' attitude of the title song to the hauntingly sureal 'Another plane came down'. A CD filled with beautiful and gentle 'chilled out' tunes. Shawn's voice is reminicent of Suzanne Vega and Alanis Morrisette. A perfect accompaniment to to a cosy night in.
