Customer Reviews

ONE OF THE BEST CD'S IN MY COLLECTION
I also bought this album in 1990 and I still go back to it after out-listening most of my other CDs. That voice, well, it's just so hard to describe. I bought 'The Speed of the Beat of my Heart' on 7" single all those years ago and couldn't stop listening to it so bought the album Same Sky. What a fantastic buy. 'Careful' and 'Breathe Me' are possibly the most "goosepimple producing" tunes ever to be heard. I've spent many a night lying on my bed with the headphones on with the volume turned to a ridiculous level - but that just adds to the atmosphere which is HORSE. GET IT - IT'S TOO GOOD NOT TO HAVE.

Buy this if it's the only Horse CD you ever buy!
If you haven't heard any Horse before, do yourself a favour and buy this one. The most amazing voice this country has produced in the last 20 years, with a vocal range that allows everyone to sing along somewhere and feel the emotion that is embedded in every song. From the fast racing "The speed of the beat of my heart" to the slow soulful tracks like "Sweet Thing", all contain meaningful lyrics that you'll identify with (which is rare in today's charts). Buy some good speakers, turn the stereo up and let Horse's voice envelop your senses - and you'll find that this is the best value CD you've ever bought!

how did i avoid this for 20 years!!!!!
the first i heard of horse was an ex playing careful to me..oh the days of first love...never bought it then...then i did buy the careful remix e.p. and loved the song its been a favourite for many years....

many times ive been flicking about in various records shops and thinking should i or should nt i? well one night was having a few drinks playing some cds while browsing the internet! if i hadnt i might never have bought this cd...ever!!!

horse has an amazing voice....a cross between alison moyet and vince clarke!!!! but because she writes the songs herself she gives them 150% every time...she is a brilliant vocalist and a brilliant songwriter! if she wasnt a lesbian and looked like jennifer lopez she would undoubtedly be a huge artist. but thats the music industry for you....shes a lesbian and sings about lesbian things so we wont promote her!!!

horse lyrics are bigger than that....anyone can relate to them...would she have been better to pretend she was straight to get mass appeal like some stars? NOT HORSE!

so to the album it is truly fantastic with the exception maybe of ...and then she smiled which i dont like the arrangements of!

the rest though is top of the pile fantastic...my favourites are the sound of my beating heart, never not going, breathe me and of course careful!

maybe one day she will get the recognition she deserves! but i doubt that! and its nice sometimes to have something no-one knows in your collection...but everybody goes who is that!!!!

a top album from a top singer and on the strenght of it have bought all the rest and they are just as good with the exception of coveted...which doesnt do it as its an album of covers and either she doesnt feel them or the originals where too good!

buy this..be happy..or i will refund your money....oo-er!
