Laura Branigan - Over My Heart (1993) [Japan]

"Over My Heart" is the 7th and final studio album by American singer Laura Branigan. Released in August 1993, it was Branigan's most personal album and saw her again try her hand at producing, alongside successful producer Phil Ramone. While the Gloria Estefan-penned "Love Your Girl" was aimed for the clubs that made her famous, the album was ballad-heavy, including the opener "How Can I Help You To Say Goodbye"; the Spanish-language "Mujer Contra Mujer"; "Mangwane (The Wedding Song)" (taught to her by her friend Stevie Godson, who was also the executive producer on the track), sung in Sotho, a South African language, and recorded there with the Mmabana Children's Choir; and several of her own compositions, "Didn't We Almost Win It All" and "Over You".

~Wikipedia

At the age of 36, Laura Branigan felt it was time to sing more about heartache and the pains of failing relationships than to give her music the same kind of pop amiability found on past hits like "Self Control" and "Gloria." But the real problem with Over My Heart is that each and every track gets doused with an overabundance of thirty-something insipidness and routine-sounding lyrical drivel. Even her Spanish can't pull her through, and sluggish efforts like Michael Bolton's "It's Hard Enough Getting Over You" and "Didn't We Almost Win It All" are mired in a barrage of "what if"-styled romanticism. The one thing that Branigan does have going for her is her voice, which sounds fresh and crisp despite her clichéd material. The title track and "How Do I Help You Say Goodbye" offer up the most potential, but there's just too much beach-walking throughout her songs to create any sort of real impact, even for the adult contemporary crowd. Even the novelty of "Mujer Contra Mujer" and "Mangwane" wears off before their endings, and Gloria Estefan's "Love Your Girl" is a tad interesting but suffers from the rest of the album's heart-heaviness. Upon its release, Over My Heart failed to chart a single and even soft rock radio stations barely gave it any notice.
