Good if you're a big fan of house and trance music

"For anyone that is looking for songs that are in the same range as "Do You Miss Me" or "A Little Bit of Ecstacy", you won't find it on this album. Jocelyn decided to go towards more of a mainstream House sound with all of her Dance tracks (a la Amber) this time around. While I'm not much a fan of house music, all the tracks on this album are solid. Here is a run-down of what I thought about "All My Life".1) All My Life- This song comes in sounding similiar to Paulina Rubio's "Don't Say Goodbye" but I don't know, I kind of get lost towards the middle.2) No Way No How- This song is also House, but with more of a trancey feel. I like the verses of this song a lot better than I do the chorus. The mood changes from a nice somber feel, which I like, into a kind of exaggerated happy mood which I don't. 3) It's No Wonder- This song is probably the bounciest song on the album. It's fun and bubbly. Catchy. The production reminds me of Donna Lewis' stuff. Cute and very happy sounding.4) Miracles- Typical Jocelyn ballad. Sounds very Pop. The melody is cool and the harmonies bring a nice depth. It's pretty and the production sounds clean.5) Take My Hand- Energetic Disco House track. This is a track that I like a lot. This track has a fun melody and it's very strong. I'm betting this will be a favorite in the clubs.6) Your Touch- This song has elements of Trance and House and for some reason also has a Disco feel. This is another one of my favorites. The music is very unique and its another strong club track.7) Make Me An Angel- I can picture this song on the radio. It's very similiar to the Trance music you hear nowadays. Another good track.8) Why- Another Trancey song that could do good on radio. 9) You Alone- A Pop sounding ballad with an R&B influence10) Walking In the Rain- Cool intro. The melody sounds similiar to Brenda K. Starr & George Lamond's "No Matter What" but with a house beat.11) No Way No How (JJ Flores Remix)- This song isn't really one of my favorites so I don't have anything more constructive to say about it.12) Faith, Hope, and Prayer- This song has a cool message but it's a little too slow for me. The cool thing, though, if you like this type of music is that they have a choir singing along.
Also, her vocals really shine on this song."

SHE'S DEFINITLEY DONE IT AGAIN!

"Being a fan of jocelyn's music since her first single "I've been thinking about you" and seeing her progress into the dance genre of music, I anticipated the release of "ALL MY LIFE" since i learned about it from her website. Well, i must say that she has definitley done it again! For those out there that surely enjoy PURE DANCE MUSIC, this album is a MUST! You'll definitley enjoy every track on this album from track 1(all my life) to track 12 (faith hope and prayer). Her voice is angelic on tracks working w/ AL B RICH & JJ FLORES i.e. As previously said, this album is a MUST! Though its been pretty quiet for her since the release of #1 billboard dance single "WHEN I GET CLOSE 2 YOU) and the funky "SO FABULOUS, SO FIERCE", this album and her long awaited comeback DEFNITLEY make up for it!"

A New Enriquez with a Somewhat Borrowed Style

"I have listened to about every album she has produced in the early 90s and this album sounds kind of like a labored effort. Maybe it's because the melodies don't really stand out and nothing sticks at the end. I can't help to think that her voice now is somewhat reminiscent of Jennifer Lopez. Just glad I still have some past memories of Jocelyn's style and vibrance. Still it's good to see her still making music. :)"
