i-tuneでも見つけられなかったアルバムなので、
アマゾンで見つけられて良かったです!
意外と?80~90年代のヒットした洋楽アルバムは、
i-tuneで取り扱いがない作品もあるので、ホントに、
助かります!
大好きな歌が満載のこのアルバムは、永久保存版です!

商品の説明
メディア掲載レビューほか
イギリスのツッパリ娘でデビューした彼女もすでにキャリア10年を積む。今ではエレガントな女性に成長。ここ最近ではそうした成熟が各作品ごとに見事に反映され一流のシンガーとして君臨。本作は,洗練されたポップ感覚に彩られた充実の作品に仕上がった。

何年経っても色あせない珠玉の作品。
トライアゲインは渾身の一曲です。
あまりに悲しいストーリーをキムが淡々と語るように歌い上げ
最後には「再びあなたを愛してみる」という決断に至る
大人の恋愛です。これほどの情感をクールに込めて歌えるのが素晴らしい。
経験が歌をさらに魅力のあるものにしていくのでしょう。
ラブイズホーリーのPVは今見ても本当に美しい。
静寂の中にある情熱。いいですね。
やはり彼女の上品な輝きは色あせません。
最近また復帰したようで、嬉しいかぎりです。

弟=リッキーとリックノエルズ(ベリンダカーライルのプロデュースで有名な人)を起用。ねらったラインはずばりベリンダライン。この時点で30代なわけでして、アダルトに攻めるのが普通。愛が中心になっているようでして、かなり厳しい状況での録音である。<1>がヒットしたようであるが日本では話題にならず。女性シンガーの『大人化計画』はかなりむずかしい様でして。ミックカーンなどゲストを動員したらしい。『女性』を感じさせる作りになっておりアダルト度数を上げている。10点中6点

Love Is...loving Kim's knack of beating off all competiton.
2009年8月14日に英国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
After Kim's 1st 90s album marked her first slight comedown in creativity, risk and quality, her 1992 album "Love Is" sends her right back up there. Yes there are more songs on here about love then even Close, but it's how you do it that counts. The attitude missing from the previous album is back here, nowhere moreso than with the deliberately terse 'Who Do You Think You Are'-complete with pleasingly incongrous gameshow-like keyboard accompaniment, yet the "extended" version on the CD single of this song is much better, far more guitar riffing, has a much better fade and sounds like its the right one for the album, and any other woman would do so, but Kim's albums almost always feature chopped song as "complete versions" when they're anything but, and 'Touched By Your Magic's' magic is dissipated on here too-the full sparkling version of it is present only on the 'Heart Over Mind' CD single-the one on the album resembling a demo. The album is wonderfully poetic, the music reflecting the pastel-like imagery for the sleeve and inlay card, but that doesn't stop it featuring a perfectly judged rockout like 'A Miracle's Coming', a thundering triumph, building slowly into a full belting storm of guitar crunching before Kim intones "Are u the devil come to carry away my soul/I wanna luv u but I don't wanna lose control." Opening track and huge hit 'Love Is Holy' smokes on with a poetic declaration of love before almost rivalling it in the pounding department, yet still sounding hymn-like, what a result few can pull off at all, and the melodic charge never detracts from the symbolism of the piece. If a hymn was ever set to a rock score-it would surely be like this. It will be pointed these two, plus maybe another may a bit "Belinda Carlisle-ish", but Kim was working with the same writers for a few of the songs, and though younger, and never given credit for it, Kim had already written far more tunes even before Bel got properly famous. It also should be noted Belinda's songs, while usually far longer, are much more simple in make-up and very interchangable, listenable but never challenging. Kim needed this fresh injection of input as "Love Moves"-an almost complete family affair, didn't follow up "Close" quite perfectly, whereas this album completes the move, and it was a deliberate one-aside from the fact Rick Nowels wanted to work with her anyway!
'I Believe In You' is a perfect example of the multi-stranded hook-filled chorus Kim does so well, sounding like no one else. 'Million Miles Away' is a stunner, starting teasingly with a sweet uplifting synth-chime until Kim comes on and tells we were wrong to think the song a happy one in the 1st place. The mystical power-ballad 'I Won't Change The Way I Feel' gives us snatches of Eastern music and imagery-and we realise Kim hardly ever does power ballads-she is perfect with them but the range and depth of her music was always far above that meer American/Simon Cowell marketing decree for women everywhere, apart from when they're doing fake cheesy disco.
The intriguingly odd 'Heart Over Mind' makes an intriugingly odd choice for a single (but again the fuller version on CD single is better than the edited one on here!), while the sublime and heartbreaking ballads 'Too Late' and 'Try Again' close the album in style-there's something so funny about the titles 'Try Again' and 'Too Late' following each other! I'd never suggest this sound was a 'Million Miles Away' from her 1990 piece "Love Moves", and considering the lady (unlike everyone else cool from the 80s-and that's a lot of people, people!) never put a foot wrong throughout that decade, she was well-placed for a little oopsie! But then who else has ever done six perfect 5star albums back-to-back with no less than ten tracks on each album at least? I've never been mad on albums full of love songs, but this is truly the way to do it, and all Kim fans should rediscover this patently underrated piece at once (making sure they get the CD singles aswell already mentioned to complete it!). It's great she's returned finally these days, when she does do anything and we're allowed to access it past the few countries she tends to operate in these days, but it would be equally good if she bothered wrestling away her completed but unreleased 1998/9 album from the losers at MCA/Universal, as it would be a far better way to end the 90s for her than the "Now & Forever" project, but aside from a complete set of non-album singles and b-sides from the decade, "Love Is" remains her best 90s work. Hopefully it'll get remastered soon, then the "extended versions" would be on the album as they should have been, and the two non-album b-sides would be too, the 'Love Is Holy' one in particular, as 'Birthday Song' is one of the loveliest things any woman singer has ever done. welcome and easily anticipated return to form from the world's true Queen of Rock&Pop, plus the'Love Is Holy' is one of the most beautiful thing's any lady singer has ever done. "Love Is"...is loving Kim's music...it's holy, don't forget it, will heal you if you let it...' (Especially from all the trash that passes for "pop stars" today).
