One of Her Best! This is the version that was released here in the U. Cher's CD It's a Man's World is Vocally, one of her best CD's. S. , and it's pretty good. But the better version is the European one. The difference is that for the U. S. five songs were re-mixed for a more R&B slant. The European has a more soft rock feel, and it offers three extra tracks. Both are good, but, in my opinion, the superior one is the European imported verion that they offer here on Amazon. com. If you want to check out the difference in some of the songs, go to youtube, but both versions are very good. .

This item i have been looking for, for a long time, and was thrilled to find it at amazon. I'm very pleased with the product and with the delivery time. Good product, good service, good price. Another satisfied cutomer.
US album is bad but UK album is the BEST
US verison is not too good but check it out for yourself and see which is worth it!! Please try to check the UK verison!!. Listen carefully people try to compare these 2 CD's for yourself before you buy it!!! This CD is a US verison and the other one just like this one was made the UK verison and UK verison only has more songs than this one and it's worth it and it has GREAT songs in it than this one.
Buy the UK version! (That's what gets five stars)
I compared samples and it is true, the US version is remixed in the worst possible way. I am so glad that I followed the advice of another reviewer and ordered this CD in its British version. I have never been a big Cher fan, but I have gotten some mild enjoyment from her hits from "I Got You Babe" to "Dark Lady" through to "Believe" but I've never thought of her as a superior vocalist or interpreter. But she really surpasses herself here. She is in superb voice and interpretively she nails every single song. Based on what I know of her recorded work, I gotta say, this is the best thing she has ever done (sample "I'm Blowin' Away" for a stunning example). Just make sure you order the UK version. I just paid ?3. 33 for it (much cheaper than the trashy remix version here) and shipping is quite reasonable. Enjoy!.
