Sobre el álbum
El álbum Emotion de 1984 presenta a Barbra Streisand sumergiéndose por completo en el sonido del pop de sintetizadores y el rock de estadios de mediados de los ochenta. Con este trabajo la artista busca actualizar su sonido y competir en un panorama musical dominado por la MTV y las grandes producciones. El disco cuenta con la participación de una pléyade de productores y compositores de éxito de la época, como Jim Steinman o Maurice White.
El resultado es un álbum ecléctico y muy representativo de su tiempo, con un uso masivo de sintetizadores, baterías electrónicas y guitarras con mucha reverberación. El single "Left in the Dark" es un ejemplo perfecto de este sonido de "power ballad" ochentera. "Emotion" es un fascinante documento que captura a una leyenda adaptándose a las modas de una nueva década, con resultados a menudo interesantes.

Letra
Face in the mirror looks the same every morning I keep looking for a change Sometimes I wonder am I standing still in time Tired of doing everything the same old way Tired of playing all the games that people play This running round in circles gives me no peace of mind I need to find I need the emotion I need to laugh Sometimes I need to cry I need the emotion I need to love so hard I don't know what to do And baby, I need you Oh Sometimes I need a good old fashioned fight It doesn't matter If I'm wrong or right Please don't worry about it You know how much I care Sometimes I need to make love all day long Sometimes I need to hold you in my arms Let's drift away together It doesn't matter where As long as you're there cause I need I need the emotion I need to laugh Sometimes I need to cry I need the emotion I need to love so hard I don't know what to do And baby , I need you Oh Sometimes I need to tear the whole thing down Sometimes I need to turn it all around When I put it back together I'll be calling out to you Can you hear me? Can you hear me? Can you hear me? I need the emotion I need to laugh sometimes I need to cry Cry I need the emotion I need to feel each passing day go by By I need the emotion I need to love so hard I don't know what to do And baby I need you I need the emotion I need the emotion Yes I do I need the emotion I need ya baby I need, I need, I need emotion Oh won't ya baby? I need, I need, I need emotion Feels so good I need, I need, I need emotion Yes I do baby Oh I need the emotion I said emotion I need, I need, I need emotion I need, I need, I need emotion I need, I need, I need emotion Every day I need the emotion Emotion Every hour I need emotion baby - Make No Mistake, He's Mine4:12

Letra
I can't apologize for the way I feel Cause I've always been honest with you I've loved you the best I could In the only way I knew And If that's not enough I've got nothin' to say And I'm not even sure that I would Somedays it was bad and somedays good But I've loved you the best I could I need more... I need someone to hold me tonight Someone there when I turn out the lights Just to be here with me I need more... I need more than you somehow I need more than your time will allow I want you as my friend Why can't you be that now? You say you need me, then you'd be gone The times I needed you Then you'd hold me and say you're sorry But what else could you do? Yet I know you really loved me So it's hard to let go like I should Let's forget the bad Remember the good Cause you loved me the best you could But I need more I need someone to hold me tonight Someone there when I turn out the light Just to be here with me I need more, I need more than you somehow I need more than your time will allow Remember the times that were good We both loved the best we could - Left in the Dark6:19

Letra
When I was lost, getting tossed Like a bottle on a stormy sea Somehow out fortunes crossed You reached out and rescued me Like the dark before the dawn I was only waiting for you to come along It's gonna be clear sailing >from now on And I used to spend the night And the night was like an ocean I was caught up in the tides Constantly inmotion But your love for me Held me like a lifeline And now I do believe Oh it's gonna be clear sailing With a dream to sail on Clear sailing from now on Now I look into your eyes The color of a quiet sea Cast my love up on the tide Watch it return to me Now I'm feeling fine I can tell the storm has passed For the last time It's gonna be clear sailing >from now on Oh it's gonna be clear sailing With a dream to sail on Clear sailin' >from now on Clear sailin' >from now on - Here We Are at Last3:20
Letra
Here we are at last Children in the dark Running from the past Into the unknown Secrets from the heart Promises we make Lips that never part Until the dawn breaks I can't remember feeling this familiar I see myself becoming his It frightens me to learn That love is... Finally here at last No place left to hide Too powerful to fast To keep it inside Everything's so new, So innocent, so true We're reaching for that star, 'cause darling, here we are Here at last [instrumental] I can't remember feeling this familiar I feel myself becoming his It strengthens me to finally see that Love is here at last No place left to run The actors have unmasked The play has begun Every moment true Each day for lovers who Have never come this far But darlin' here we are Here at last Here at last...
