2 out of 5 stars No way!.......2007-07-18

There are only two great tracks on this album, "Wasted" and "Panzermench". The rest of the album is a dudd. I am much more impressed by the records And One put out after this album..verry dissapointing synth pop album, but those two good tracks are really, really, really good.

5 out of 5 stars AND ONE IS AMAZING!!!.......2006-11-08

And One's CD Virgin Superstar is one of the greatest synthpop bands in Germany. They sing in both English and German, creating a unique sound. The melody is poppy, with deep vocals that converge perfectly. I urge all of you to go out and buy this CD if you love techo.

5 out of 5 stars Fabulous.......2005-08-05

Wonderful Synth pop band. They sing in English as easily as in German, wonderful lyrics, riveting music.

3 out of 5 stars mediocre, at best.......2005-03-17

I bought this CD based on the 5 star reviews given to it and I'm disappointed. "Wasted" was the only song that somewhat caught my attention. I would just listen to your friend's copy.

5 out of 5 stars Five stars...and one!.......2004-02-26

German synth-pop never sounded so good. Ultra catchy club friendly synth anthems with a unique sound that blends the modern, more aggressive sounds of EBM with shimmering pop songs that could have easily been classified as remastered 80's dance tracks. 'You don't love me anymore' could have easily been a chart topping hit by 80's groups like Duran Duran, Real Life, or Alphaville. 'My story' sounds divinely like a Pet Shop Boys song. But make no mistake, there is nothing 'dated' or 'cheesy' about these songs. You'll stomp your feet to the infectiously addictive 'Wasted' which is about the corruptions of plastic surgery. Or 'Wet Spot' a very modern sounding electronic song with a female vocal singing about finding sexual fulfillment..without anyone else's help. Or 'Goodbye Germany' which has a baseline reminiscent of VNV Nation. The bottom line...If you like dancable melodic synthpop that you'll feel almost forced to dance AND sing along to, this is perfect. You should be able to find it new from one of the amazon.com merchants for about half of the retail price of this import if it is too much for your budget. Take it from a die hard Depeche Mode fan with VERY picky taste when it comes to other synth bands. You will NOT be disappointed.

    5 out of 5 stars The most underrated song of the 90's!.......2004-08-19

    My band and I listen to this song more than the Verve has and we still agree that it is their best song. Written about the high life, the intoxicating combination of women and drugs, this song captures perfectly the Verve's persona, cutting through any commercialism and drilling right down to their very psyche, the thing that makes these boys tick.

    Richard Ashcroft's supernatural vocals soar with haunting precision whilst Nick McCabe's infinite guitar lushes liquid gold over this early piece that was also a live favorite.

    Many verve fans agree that it is their greatest and most eloquent song. Sadly radio stations decided against taking the risk of playing an uncommercial song so unfortunately, it became one of the most underrated songs of the 90's, lost in the pop/techno/grunge movement. It became a classic case of the right song, released at the wrong time.

    5 out of 5 stars Early Masterpiece.......2000-11-26

    The only other place you can find the full version of the first track of the album is on the rare Voyager 1. The band's second single is characterized by spacy sounds and straining vocals, these two tracks will blow your mind. She's A Superstar is my favorite Verve song, and this single is a must-have.

    5 out of 5 stars TranceAtlantic Love Is Beyond Expectation.......2007-04-10

    I got this album in April 2007.

    Jeanette Romeu has exceeded the envelope, providing variety and so many intelligently developed sounds and vibes coming at you, that you can hardly keep up. Its Miami type club inspired Trance, and maintains the highest
    levels of developed music than many other more recognized
    artists. Romeu understands the audiences of Trance and has already mastered this genre. More desired.

    4 out of 5 stars A pretty cool album........2006-01-02

    This is one sweet cd. I have actually been looking for some of Jeanette Romeu's music (over 2 years) for a while now, before I knew who she was. Awesome artist. Yeah, I can't dance, but I dance when hear this sweet CD.
