*~Gwen Stefani~*
"Madonnasphere"
Well Im wondering myself why this Post idea cropped up on my head..Listening to her songs and the sudden hype created all over the world..Radio stations playing at least four of her songs daily I think did this to me.
There is a new Queen Diva...From my view..She looks like a mixed up version of Madonna and Marilyn Monroe..
As lead singer and songwriter for Grammy-winners ''No Doubt''(punk rock–ska mish-mash-of-genres-type band)
She soon dismounted from her band.Though I do prefer her to join the bad once again.They had their success in the charts..
In 2004 she finally realsed her debut solo album.''Love. Angel. Music. Baby'' and it is absolute Gwen in every way.Its rebellious, confessional, sexy , playful, funky and emotional..and in some parts rhythmic..This was of course was achieved thanks to artists like Dr. Dre, The Neptunes, Andre 3000, Linda Perry, New Order, Nellee Hooper, Wendy & Lisa, and Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.
With all those elements and different tunes mixed and mashed up.She created an album brimming with her enthusiasm.The songs are quite contagious and yes one of my favs is ''Cool''
where she shows her inner love nature.The song to me is warm and the beats are nice.Well I popped up the lyrics and here it is...
''COOL''
It's hard to remember how it felt before
Now I found the love of my life...
Passes things get more comfortable
Everything is going right
And after all the obstacles
It's good to see you now with someone else
And it's such a miracle that you and me are still good friends
After all that we've been through
I know we're cool
We used to think it was impossible
Now you call me by my new last name
Memories seem like so long ago
Time always kills the pain
Remember Harbor Boulevard
The dreaming days where the mess was made
Look how all the kids have grown
We have changed but we're still the same
After all that we've been through
I know we're cool
And I'll be happy for you
If you can be happy for me
Circles and triangles, and now we're hangin' out with your new
girlfriend
So far from where we've been
I know we're cool
Well if her Debut album is rockin charts all over the world..I can't guess whats in store for her next album..though she might be a whole new madonna for the 21st century.
*My rating for this Album is 3 out of 5

Gwen Stefani is definitely the "It girl" of the moment. It took me a while for a few of her songs to wear on me, but I like them.
I'm still trying to figure out how to shake my booty to Hollaback Girl while on the treadmill without falling off.
bananas!
cool is a real nice song :)
I had such a bout of nostalgia when I first saw the "Cool" video...Gwen just looked so fresh and sweet, just like she did when she first came out in the early 90s...it was such a shock to see her with normal hair, clothing and makeup for a change.
the music video of COOL was really cool!
...but i like her in black hair rather in her blonde hair...:)
Gwen Stefani kicks ass - I haven't picked up this solo album, I am just not convinced yet. Saw No Doubt live, the band as a whole puts on a great show, but she seriously works it on stage!! How someone has so much energy is still beyond me. :)
DAMN!
i been wasting my time
i just found out
