Walk on home, boy...
This album is just as good today as it was in '92.
Every track is amazing.
I hate how people underrate this album. Erotica is a "dark masterpiece." It's a brilliant fusion of pop, house, jazz, new jack swing, techno, classic disco, and R&B.
"Rain" and "Bad Girl" are especially beautiful ballads.
Well, I voted for this album because it stands the test of time. There is truly an amazing, almost out-of-body experience that a person goes through when hearing her voice. No one else can ever compare.
Why do pop singers get the top spot? This album is pure metal and very cool. If you hate this album and you're a metalhead, there's something wrong with you.
This is a perfect album from the best hard rock metal band, Iron Maiden. This album has great songs like Fear of the Dark, From Here to Eternity, Afraid to Shoot Strangers (beautiful solo), and Wasting Love (great power ballad). This album needs to be in 1st place, not 2nd, not 3rd... only 1st.
Kiss of Life, Cherish the Day, No Ordinary Love, I Couldn't Love You More, Bulletproof Soul, Pearls - the list goes on. All classics. This is one of her best albums and easily one of the best of '92.
The Newcomers
She was working with Enigma in the early '90s, and this is the closest Enigma-ish Sandra album. It has a really mysterious sound.
