Emotion Reviews:
Pure Class 
2002-10-09 - I used to think Destiny's Child were the most annoying group ever. Just another r+b female group cranking out forgettable songs. But when I heard this song Emotion, WOW, I totally gained a new found respect for them. This song is so beautiful, they sing it beautifully...the whole thing just has CLASS written all over it. Good job ladies. Oh yeah, I also have to admit that I also like Bootylicious as well :P
Not Terrible, but Where is the SOUL? 
2002-07-16 - Beyonce and Co. revive the Bee Gees tune, and it overall works. But no matter how well these ladies sing it, you can't help but notice the dearth of soul in this single. Where is the Destiny's Child that sang such great songs like "Say My Name?" Now, they have neutered the soul in their music, and it becomes evident in this single and much of the "Survivor" album. Not a disaster, but I wanted more.
In the Words of a Broken Heart.... 
2001-10-31 - Destiny's Child blew me away with this sensational single. The video, with its brilliant split-screen effect, following all three girls individually, has been one of my favorites so far this year. The song is so beautiful, sweet, and sorrowful all at the same time.
Once made famous by 70s disco icons The Bee Gees in a duet with the lovely Samantha Sang, Destiny's Child compeletely changes the tempo to a slower song, more heartfelt and sincere.
The track also offers a great deal of variety with breathtaking vocals from currently golden-haired diva Beyoncé Knowles as well as the humble but gorgeous Michelle Williams. Kelly Rowland has a surprising amount of lead vocals near the beginning, also.
This single includes the hip/hop mix featuring Missy Elliot (also available on the Carmen soundtrack), two dance mixes and another somewhat mediocre mix. Living near Australia, we have very easy access to these singles, however, I pay even more for them in stores. This is an exceptional single at a very reasonable price. Don't hesitate to buy.
Nice one, Destiny!
2001-10-12 - The first time I heard this song I thought it was pretty cool.
It's got a really soulful vibe to it, though not as up-tempo as their previous hits like "Bootylicious", "Survivor" and "Independent Women".
Me - I don't usually like slow songs, but Kelly, Michelle and Beyonce have great voices - so any song they make will be a hit.
I garuntee you that ANYTHING you buy by Destiny's Child is well worth your money, so go out there and get their album, "Survivor" NOW!!
