"Sweet Surrender" Storyline?

[TNSUN]

Is it true, a Diana Ross fan wrote this song and sent her a tape of this beautiful song? I like the rawness in this song. Beautiful seductive tempo.

She told the story of this when she appeared on THE TONIGHT SHOW. It sounds like she held onto it for a while because she was unable to find the writers.

[Albator]

I'm listening this just right now. Great cut, very seductive.

The only criticism I'll venture is that the arrangement is 70's vintage.

[Bluebrock]

It's certainly one of the better cuts on the rather dismal Fools album. I wish someone like Michael Masser could have been producer. He would have got more out of her, but it is an undeniably nice track.

[Ollie9]

An average song, badly produced from a mostly dismal album.

[RanRan79]

I love it. I think it's an underrated cut.

I remember going downtown with my cousin to buy the FOOLS album and then bringing it over to his house for listen. He really liked SWEET SURRENDER. I didn't think it was all that, much preferring MIRROR, MIRROR.

You know how some people like the slow part of “Love Hangover”, some even wishing they could hear a full version of the slow part? To me “Sweet Surrender” is like an 80’s version of the slow part of Love Hangover. Or am I trippin’? Lol.

i agree its a highlight from her album. this and Mirror Mirror showed a sound and direction that could have been explored more. a more rock sound [[without getting to crazy like Fool For Your Love).
