Album Reviews
Last remaining copies available! Now deleted worldwide. 'Throughout the 90's, the musical partnership of Peter and Vanessa Daou seamlessly merged elements of pop, jazz, and electronica to create some of the most intoxicating, exhilarating, and seductive soundscapes for dancefloors, lounges, and bedrooms. Make You Love is easily the artist's most honest, pop-leaning, and (dare we say) best collection to date. Tracks like 'You', 'Juliette', 'Bittersweet', and a cover of Jane's Addiction 'I Would For You' are pure bliss. EMI. 2000.

Customer Reviews and Comments
I have no idea why it has taken me so long to write this review.
First of all, let me make a bold statement - this is easily my favorite CD in my collection, which I must admit is quite considerable in size. I have had this CD for some time now, four or five years, and have listened to it easily over a 1,000 times and have not tired of it in the least. Vanessa voice, as well as the sensual music simmering beneath it, is incredibly sexy and raw and will strip your inhibitions naked.
I am embarrassed to admit that I knew nothing of Vanessa until I stumbled across one of her songs on an episode of Dawson's Creek. I know, I know, but at least it brought Vanessa's music into my life - well worth the hours of guilty pleasure spent on the WB many years back. I am a complete trip-hop freak, so I have no idea how I managed to miss out on Vanessa for so long.
I have since bought all of Vanessa's CDs, including her single "A Little Bit of Pain", as well as any other Daou recording that I can scavenge from Amazon, iTunes, wherever. I was even able to procure an autographed copy of "Make You Love" from Vanessa's website a few years ago. Needless to say, it is a prized possession. Each CD easily ranks in my top 20, most in my top 10. I am sure a review of my iPod's most listened to list would confirm this fact.
From Vanessa and Peter Daou's musical interpretation of Erica Jong's writings on "Zipless", to "Slow to Burn", "Dear John Coltrane", "Plutonium Glow" (thank you, Vanessa for the song "Alive" on this CD), to this immaculate offering, "Make You Love", Vanessa consistently delivers the goods.
Personal favorites on "Make You Love" include "You", "A Little Bit of Pain", "Mess Around", "Make You Love", and "Juliette". This is music for the sensual life - an intimate and leisurely gathering of friends, that wandering afternoon drive to nowhere in particular, or a passionate late night session with the one that you love (or simply lust).
Get a little bit of Vanessa in your life, and into your headphones. My life hasn't been the same since she came into mine.
Vanessa, please keep doing what you do. Your music is a bastion in a world that rewards the offensive and talent-devoid offerings of the likes of Britney Spears and Ashlee Simpson.
