I first was introduced to Sheena Easton when my aunt had gotten the album You Could've Been With Me on a cassette and my aunt played it while she was driving our family to an amusement park and me and my cousins started singing along with Sheena Easton and it was great fun. I too had searched for that same album on CD and eventually got it. Sheena Easton was best known for the song Morning Train and had sung a duet with Kenny Rogers called We've Got Tonight which was also a hit for Bob Seger. And then she did some dance music in the 80's and had a hit with the song Follow My Rainbow which gained popularity in an episode of Miami Vice in 1989. It's surprising that you don't hear much about Sheena Easton anymore because she has an amazing voice and awesome talent

I like most of her songs, what I didn't care for was the title change of "9 to 5" to "Morning Train (Nine to Five)." This was done in the U.S. because the record company thought people were stupid enough to confuse it with Dolly Parton's "9 to 5" which was on the charts around the same time as Easton's song.

Morning Train is my favorite Sheena Easton song too as well Zoneboy and the very first Sheena Easton album I got was the album The Best Of Sheena Easton that was released in 1989 and I just liked her songs although it wasn't the album my aunt had on cassette that I wanted I thought the album that I got was great. Did you know that country singer Lila McCann did a wonderful cover of Sheena Easton's song Almost Over You? That's such an awesome ballad that really showcases Sheena's talent and it's such a wonderful song. Another song she sang was a Christmas song called It's Christmas All Over The World from the movie Santa Claus The Movie that was also covered by Catch 21 host Alfonso Ribeiro in an episode of Silver Spoons. It's a shame that you can't find any female singers with Sheena Easton's talent because Sheena is a great singer that can be a role model for female singers today

I like Morning Train (9 To 5) too. But I think my favorite Sheena Easton song is the duet she sang with Kenny Rogers, We've Got Tonight. I had no use for her after she started collaborating with Prince. And Almost Over You is a good song too.

Has Sheena Easton released any new albums lately? Because I heard that she released an album called Fabulous but that's the only news I heard about Sheena Easton so far
