Circle Of One

Very talented singer. Pity we all never hear her voice on radio anymore.

Who didn't love Tears for Fears Seeds of Love? Who did not hear the input of their discovery Oleta Adams throughout the project? The anticipation of the outfit producing her was tantalizing. The actual debut Circle Of One is outstanding Oleta has an instrument that's warm, supple and clear in tone and alternativley, expressive, soulful and sanctified! Her compositions bring a new life to her choice of remakes (2) "tried true and blue" classics to start...Everything Must Change gets another turn and Get Here, a then more recent Brenda Russell hit, gets a reworking that widens its appeal worldwide. An unlikely global smash that solidifies Oleta and her debut within the marketplace. The aforementioned remakes sets us up perfectly for the original compositions that are positively inspiring and deeply personal testimonies of love lost and gained, independence sought and achieved and the right to sing her songs... The standouts are Rhythm of life, Circle of one, Will we ever learn and the stunning Don't Look Too Closely.... This is a review of the UK 2018 Remastered and Expanded Edition featuring B sides, Live versions and multiple remixes of the then in era single releases. More Oleta...unleashed. Get it!

have been waiting for a re-issue of this glorious album with bonus stuff, but why, oh why, is the extended William Orbit remix not included?

I bought this album for the song Reach Me but it is full of other musical jewels,absolutey beautiful album.

An excellent singer and a great range of her beautiful voice. Many thanks to a great singer!!!!!!!!

Oleta's album are songs from the heart for the heart. Great for a time of reflection. Everything Must Change for example is so beautiful. Poignant.
