 This is a hit
Submitted on: 2009-03-20 |

| i got into lisa when i was about 10 years old with "all around the world" and i am so glad that i have bought affection it's wonderful, Lisa's rich octaves make every song breezy and enjoyable, this is definitely one of the best thing to come out of the 90s. Every song hits a chord , some of my favorites being "affection", " what did i do to you" " sincerity" and "when are you coming back" . here it is 20 years later and i am still grooving to Lisa. |

LO MEJOR DEL DISCO EN LOS 90s

| Uno de los albumes mas bailables de la decada de los 90's, donde se nos presenta a una Lisa Stansfield en todo su potencial y deleitandonos con su magnifica voz, con un album fresco, prendido y con ritmos que nos recuerdan la epoca gloriosa del disco en su renacer de fines de los 80s, con el apogeo de la musica electronica y los estilos afroamericanos que tanto se explotaron en esos dias; dos de sus mejores exitos, ALL AROUND THE WORLD y THIS IS THE RIGHT TIME estan presentes aqui, sin dejar de valorar las demas canciones, entre las que destacan LIVE TOGETHER y POISON; indispensable para los amantes del disco!!! |

This album changed my life!

1990: I was fifteen years old and I was watching MTV one day, and suddenly the song 'All Around The World' came on by this new singer Lisa Stansfield. That was it, I was hooked. I literally felt like this music was speaking to me: the voice, the beat, the catchiness. I sang that song (and all the others on the album) millions of times, wishing I was Lisa. Lisa's debut became MY music, above all else. It shaped my adolescence and I haven't been able to put it down since. Now before you write me off as a Lisa fanatic (which I proudly am, and you will be too after listening to this classic album), let me agree and add to the reviews below.
1. Lisa's voice is intoxicating and hits all the right notes at all the right times.
2. Every song could have been a hit and production is amazing throughout.
3. The music wants to make you dance, cry, sing and chill to.
4. Affection never gets boring, and does not sound dated at all.
5. We Lisa fans need to keep her music alive and help it be rediscovered... it is only a matter of time before the 1990's style becomes fashionable again and this album is given even greater classic status than it already has.
And remember, 'You Can't Deny It', 'This Is The Right Time' to listen to this album 'All Around The World'. |

 Classy debut from classy lady

Lisa Stansfield's solo debut pretty much showed that she was the UK's answer to Teena Marie; a Caucasian woman with vocals so soulful that you would swear up and down that she was black if you weren't looking straight at her.
The album is fantastic, and while it hasn't aged extremely well, that is okay. Standout tracks include the midtempo R&B smash, "All Around The World," the thumping neo-disco cut "This Is The Right Time," and the soulful house gem "The Love In Me." That isn't to say that there aren't missteps on the album. "Mighty Love" is happy forgettable filler and the new jack swing-influenced "Poison" seems like a song that is too hard-edged for a sophisticated girl like Lisa and as a result, doesn't quite pull it off. Despite those minor faults, Affection is still worth listening to over and over again. |
