Start Over (album)

Start Over is the seventh studio album by American singer Cheryl Lynn.

Start Over would be Lynn's only album for Manhattan Records; Lynn would sign with Virgin Records for her next release.

AllMusic editor Ron Wynn rated the album one and a half out of five stars.

He found that "the songs on Cheryl Lynn's sole Manhattan release, Start Over, are so bland and inept that the phone book would represent a huge upgrade by comparison – which is a shame, because the woman can sing, even if the gelatinous late-'80s production threatens to swallow her like quicksand.

Even "Don't Run Away," a reunion with "Got to Be Real" producer David Paich, entombs Lynn's natural sass and vibrancy in near-impenetrable layers of synths.
