MELISSA ETHERIDGE : Getting Used To Her New Skin

by phineaskc Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Jul 15 '01
Pros: the rollercoaster ride of emotions; raw and gritty tunes
Cons: none
Are you ready for it? Well, it's here. The much anticipated Skin CD by artist Melissa Etheridge hit the store shelves on Tuesday. Any true Melissa fan was eagerly waiting to shell out their $14.00 for a copy to share in her pain...

Melissa Etheridge bares it all on "SKIN"

by gerper Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jul 16 '01
Pros: A great collection of songs, really great writing
Cons: 39 minutes worth of music? Come on!
“Whoa, at least I’m not the only one who has ever been burned”. That was my first reaction after fully listening to "Skin", the seventh release from Melissa Etheridge. 10 songs, with a total running time of just under 39 minutes, yet the songs...

Go Ahead Melissa, Show Me Some More Skin!!

by wolfman309 , Jul 10 '01
Pros: This album is all Melissa. From the heart.
Cons: Only 10 songs
I often wonder what kind of event triggers a certain song for a songwriter. You do not have to look hard for the inspiration to this album for Melissa. Her recent break-up with long time squeeze, Julie Cypher, fueled this very emotional and personal...

The Strong Sweet Heart Of Melissa Etheridge

by katmar , Jul 10 '01
Pros: Strong writing, personal, honest, painful, hopeful, mature
Cons: Haven't come across any yet
I'm sure the last few years have not been easy for Melissa Etheridge. First, you have the whole world looking in as you have your children, and wanting to know who the father is, and what do you mean it's David Crosby, what are you nuts, how did this...

Going Beneath the Surface

by rahu69 , Jul 11 '01
Pros: The stark realities of Melissa Etheridge's current life are well documented here through her lyrics.
Cons: The music isn't as catchy as her previous album, "Breakdown".
It's a rare find when a celebrity opens up their personal life to the public. Especially when it is a lesbian rock star like Melissa Etheridge, who has previously been daring enough to become a parent of two children (one of which was "fathered" by...

Speak True for I am never withholding my Life!

by truedat74 , Sep 29 '01
Pros: You get the feeling you are looking right into Melissa's Soul!
Cons: none
Melissa has done it yet again! She has written and performed the only way she knows how...from the heart!

I am an avid MLE fan and visit her web site frequently. I have known her music since the album "Yes I Am". That means I have known her...

Only Skin Deep

by kesslerdee , Aug 03 '01
Pros: That lovely Melissa Etheridge voice
Cons: The songs fall flat. Over produced. Doesn't deliver the passion it promises.
I really hate to write this review in light of the fact that Melissa Etheridge is my all time favorite singer/songwriter. I waited for this release with more excitement than usual given the fact that Melissa has recently separated from Julie her long...

Great but not GREAT

by catwomyn , Mar 14 '02
Pros: Typical Melissa
Cons: Typical Melissa
I love Melissa Etheridge. Love, love, love her. However, she can get in a rut, and I think she is. This is a really, really good album. Her best? No way. Her worst? No way. And see, that's really the problem: it sounds like a lot of her other albums....

Theme album delivers -- but not consistently

by niceguymike , Oct 13 '08
Pros: Some great songs
Cons: Not a lot of really memorable songs
The theme of this album actually is "skin"; that word is used in every song on the album CD whatever.Being a major Melissa fan, I of course had to add it to my collection, and I enjoy it on a regular basis. I keep in it my truck, ripped it to my ...

Pros: Heartfelt and passionate. You will cry, smile, and laugh. Her best yet!
Cons: None
The long awaited 7th album by MLE is here! With promises of passion, emotions, heartbreak, tears and happiness, "Skin" truly delivers in every area!

The album, inspired by what must have been like hell for Melissa, that being the shocking...

Great honest sound

by coartist , Jul 30 '01
Pros: nice, creative sound
Cons: a few lame songs
This CD is great to listen to on one's discman while lying in bed at night. While many of the songs reflect romantic pain and such themes as relationship failure, the CD ends on a hopeful note.

A few of the songs are a bit uninspiring and...
