"The Shoop Shoop Song (It's In His Kiss)."
This passionate song from the soundtrack of the film "Mermaids." tells us how to realise that a man loves a woman. It is, as the lyric says, encapsulated in the his kiss. And yes: it's a cover version of Betty Everett and her '60s classics, but what a...
В "The Shoop Shoop Song (It's In His Kiss)." everything is perfect: there's a 60's vibe here, cleverly combined with 90's trends. And Cher's voice... it's gorgeous. Such a strong and soulful performance can only be performed by true goddesses, which this diva has always been.
"Save Up All Your Tears"
This anthemic song from the album "Love Hurts." combines elements of pop rock and soft rock. The sound is incredible! It's very guitar trackwhich is sure to please rock music lovers. Especially delightful here is the solo - and the vocals of Cher herself, of course. So aggressive and bold - if you study the lyrics, you can see why.
"Baby, save all your tears,
Who knows, you might need them one day.
When the tears start to drip,
I won't wipe them..."
It's a bitter lyric about how she tells the guy who hurt her that he'll want her back when she's gone. Cher sings "Save Up All Your Tears" in a higher octave, her vocals are sincere and passionate. As a performer who values her voice, this is definitely a big risk for her!
"Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves."
A strikingly engaging composition in terms of lyrical storytelling that marked Cher's return to the charts after several years without a hit. The song represents girl's storywho was "born in a van of travelling artists": her mother works as a dancer and her father does everything to earn some money.
"My mum used to dance a lot for money that was thrown to her.
Daddy did all sorts of things:
Could sing a little gospel
Or sell a couple of bottles of some potions..."
When she turned 16, her family picked up a 21-year-old Southerner with whom the heroine had a fling brief affair. Three months later she got into "trouble" and the boyfriend, understandably, disappeared. In the end, the girl follows in her mother's footsteps, and her daughter was born in the same place as herself.
"Take Me Home"
A very sexy composition and a classic for the ages - "Take Me Home" attracts with its disco sound and romantic lyrics. In this song, the beautiful Cher sings seductively about wanting her lover to take her home.
The melody, the vocals - everything is mesmerising! You get the impression that this could have been a song. Donna Summer! The music is funky and beautifully arranged and most importantly, you can feel the huge soul in "Take Me Home" ! A great dance track that showcases Cher's virtuosity as a singer.
"Strong Enough."
A beautiful disco style composition in which Cher declares: she wants to end bad relationships. She wants to be free of toxic relationships. And she's ready to do it, because she's "strong enough."!
The music is very danceable. It starts with a slow piano motif and then moves into a brisk disco rhythm. This bit is guaranteed to lift you out of your seat or at the very least make you stomp your foot!
"If I Could Turn Back Time"
"If I could turn back time." - A song filled with remorse... It's a sad song about regret and the pain she (the singer) has caused someone.
"If I could find a way,
I would take back those words that hurt you, and you would stay..."
Remarkably, Cher originally flatly refused to perform this song! Author Diane Warren I literally had to beg her to sing this very bitter lyric. Cher finally agreed - much to the delight of her fans and herself, as "If I Could Turn Back Time" became a big hit!
"Believe."
"Believe." - A "bittersweet" (as critics have emphasised) anthem about walking away from a painful relationship.
For Cher, the song became particularbecause she has not used auto-tune for her voice in the past. This is the first major success using auto-tune, although it was not required - we know that Cher's voice marvellous and without any effects.
And lastly, there's more 5 delightful compositionsthat can't go unnoticed.
"Dark Lady."
"I Got You Babe" (Sonny & Cher)
"After All" (ft. Peter Cetera).
