"After reading some of the other reviews, my expectations were low for this cd, but I was pleasantly suprised! The problem with the other reviewers is they were expecting another "Two of Hearts." You won't find anything like it here and I suspect that was Stacey's intention as she chose not to use her longtime producer, Jon St.James. While none of the tracks on this cd are likely to send you running to the dance floor(except maybe "Never Stop" with the right remixes), this is probably her best album lyrically. This cd fuses many different types of music, including rock, alternative, pop and even country.("Love On" could have done well on country radio.) The best tracks include the "title cut," "Tenderness," "Never Stop," and her cover of "My Sweet Lord."If you want something to dance or work out to, get Stacey's "Better Than Heaven" cd. If you are open minded and want something different, give this cd a try. In all honesty, Stacey probably should have used her real name, Stacey Swain to avoid having to live up to or live down(which ever way you want to look at it) her "dance diva" past. All things considered, this was a good attempt at a comeback. With the a major label release and the right promotion, she might have succeeded."

A change can be a good thing

"Although different from her first three cd's, I think that this cd is nice. However, this has more of a folk feel than of a techno beat. If you are are a huge Stacey Q fan, than this is a CD for you. However, if you are just beginning to Listen to Stacey Q, I suggest listening to some of her earlier records to get in touch with Stacey Swain the "singer". Some of these CD's include: Better than Heaven, Hard Machine, and Nights like This. You can also check out the Return of the Living Dead movie soundtrack, she performs the last two tracks. Stacey is also rumored to release a new CD titled Stardust. I hope all of this was helpful to someone."

"Stacey Q's 5th solo album "Boomerang" is not what one would expect from this artist. Whilst her previous albums were dance/pop oriented, this album takes a complete change to a more mellow, and extremely catchy "hippie" feel. It's great! The only thing this album lacks is the usual, really bad b-side song. All the songs are great and totally suited to Stacey's sweet, high voice. I totally recommend this album to anyone with eardrums."
