Members YRBB Posted January 18, 2013 Members Share Posted January 18, 2013 (edited) Not sure if anyone here cares but "Woman's World," the first single off of Cher's upcoming 26th album, has been out for over a month now (and I had no idea). Not officially released yet. Doesn't really compare to her classic stuff but I love it and I'm glad she's coming back after 11-12 years! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gXAZ-wvNtU Edited January 18, 2013 by YRBB 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted January 18, 2013 Members Share Posted January 18, 2013 Believe was her best song IMO. Of course it was her biggest hit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted January 18, 2013 Members Share Posted January 18, 2013 while I believe in life after love, I am partial to some of her oldies <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/TOSZwEwl_1Q" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members psychofan Posted January 18, 2013 Members Share Posted January 18, 2013 I love all things Cher!! I really don't get the deal with her new music, though. I love "Woman's World", but this "new album" has been pushed back and pushed back for over a year and even this single has been drifting in cyber space for what seems like forever. I'm really gonna need her record label to step up! My favorite work from Cher was actually on her most recent album, 2001's "Living Proof"...flawless dance pop! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted January 18, 2013 Author Members Share Posted January 18, 2013 It's flawless pop! Love her oldies too! I'm glad I'm not the only one. I think she's really taking her time recording it... the only reason Woman's World is out is because it was leaked and it forced Warner to put it on YouTube. But, yes, I would love for it to come out already. I'm really surprised that your favorite album is Living Proof! I loved it but I suspect it's not a very popular opinion... and they took the over the top autotuning way waaaay too far! I'm glad to see this album is looking different. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted January 18, 2013 Members Share Posted January 18, 2013 I can take or leave her, but I really preferred 80's pop-rock Cher over the generic dance stuff she's done from Believe on. But, still, the Junior Vasquex remix of One By One remains her best song her! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGhpqbf1I5M 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted January 18, 2013 Members Share Posted January 18, 2013 (edited) Oddly, I think Cher's one of those few singers who transitioned to acting, and was better [for me] as an actress than singer. I loved her "movie star era" in the 80s/very early 90s. I can still watch Mask, Moonstruck, Silkwood, and Mermaids a million times over.

Members MissLlanviewPA Posted January 18, 2013 Members Share Posted January 18, 2013 I GREW UP watching Mermaids. I actually knew of her as an actress first because of that movie! I also like her version of The Shoop Shoop Song. Will & Grace : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQB9CSZL1yY 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted January 18, 2013 Members Share Posted January 18, 2013 (edited) Her version of The Shoop Shoop Song went to #1 in the UK, but only reached #33 in the US. I love her version too. Cher herself has said that she always wanted to be an actress, not a singer, and that she's technically better at acting than singing.

Members DRW50 Posted January 18, 2013 Members Share Posted January 18, 2013 Believe is a terrific album. A few songs are a little weak but all listenable, with my favorites being Dove L'Amore, The Power, We All Sleep Alone, and Strong Enough (even if some of the lyrics on that annoy). I know WASA is a remix, but I prefer the remix. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-RDwL1Nrpc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted January 18, 2013 Members Share Posted January 18, 2013 She worked her ass off for that Oscar and overcame so much Hollywood bullsh!t to get it. It was so deserved, and I'm glad she got it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted January 18, 2013 Members Share Posted January 18, 2013 Years ago, I was visitng my late ex-girlfriend in L.A., and she was on a serious Cher jag. She would play her "best of" album in the car and as a biracial person, I remember cutting up when she played the song "Half-breed". Later that week, we were driving to a restaurant and who should I see driving a vintage pickup truck?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
