Great Album.......2007-07-23

I always enjoyed the Journey song "I Believe". I purchased this album mostly for this song. The rest of the album is great also.

Living in the 80's again.......2007-07-13

This is a fabulous album of Journey's greatest hits and cannot figure out why I didn't have this album already, in my collection, because I like Steve's singing so much. When I heard it at the end of the Soprano's it brought back nice memories.

It's the Journey, not the destination.......2007-07-12

Once Steve Perry joined Journey for the "Infinity" album, the band's course was inevitably reset. They changed direction from being a progressive rock band to an arena rock juggernaut. Perry's main contribution was a strong melodic sense coupled to his more soulful vocals. The hits started almost immediately, as "Lights" and "Wheel In The Sky" became FM Rock Radio staples.

That is what this greatest hits focuses on, the songs that became the standards by which the public remembers the band. If you were interested in the albums BEFORE "Infinity," I suggest "Time 3," which adds material from the years when Neal Schon was still aping his jazz-Rock tenure with Santana and Gregg Rollie was doing standard rock keyboard boogie. Personally, I liked them better when Perry got on board. The sound focused and the songwriting tightened. Songs like "Separate Ways/Worlds Apart" and "Any Way You Want It" could add a jolt of adrenaline to a day of radio. When Jonathan Cain replaced Gregg Rollie on "Escape," Journey took on a romantic bent from Cain's songwriting. "Open Arms" came first, then "Faithfully" (on "Frontiers") solidified it. These were pop radio songs without peer, and they make Journey's "Greatest Hits" an essential document of 70's and 80's radio rock. (The updated version includes the best song from the 90's reunion "Trial by Fire," "When You Love A Woman.")

The other reason you might be looking at this is not because of Steve Perry's voice or Neal Schon's guitar heroics, but because of Tony and Carmella. It was Journey's "Don't Stop Believing" that echoed out of the final minutes of "The Sopranos" closing episode. It was funny that Tony passed over Tony Bennett and Frank Sinatra for Journey and inspire a million parodies in the process. (Including Hilary Clinton...where the best moment is when she and President Bill Clinton are flipping through songs and Bill says "My money's on Smash Mouth...") Talk about cementing your place in pop culture...who could have asked for better?

This best of offers a pair of soundtrack rarities in "Only The Young" (from "Vision Quest") and "Ask The Lonely" (from "Two of a Kind"). Missing are a few crucial singles like "Suzanne," "Stone In Love" and "Walks Like A Lady." If you really want them, go for the box sets or individual CD's.

Complete.......2007-07-09

This is how you do a greatest hits collection. You put ALL of them on there. Not a mix of half greats, and half "other", then release the rest on another "greatest hits" CD.

Get the Infinity album too........2007-07-07

Unfortunately, it does not include my favorite song tandem Feeling That Way/ Anytime. For that you need to buy The Infinity album. It does include some great songs, a good mix of rockers and ballads. Definitely worth the price to anyone who loves classic rock and roll or was a teen in the late '70s. But do yourself a favor and get the Infinity album too.

The notion that rock must perpetually break new ground and reinvent itself is the odious legacy of 10 too many years of rock-crit navel gazing, and one that young Australian power trio Wolfmother stands gleefully on its head with their effusive debut. Hardly surprising to find a new generation's reaction to a decade of shoe-gazing alternative rock angst to be a return to the guilty pleasures of unabashed, blues-based stadium rock--even if they seem unsure whether they're channeling the early Zep scream 'n' sludge frenzy of the single "Woman" or adopting The White Stripes' stripped-down ethos on "Apple Tree" and elsewhere. They bravely mix suspect '70s lyrical thematics ("White Unicorn," "Where Eagles Have Been," "Tales") with usual suspects like Sabbath ("Dimension"), stir in the neo-prog of "Colossal," "Witchcraft," and "Tales," (the latter complete with Tull-savvy flute break), then toast Soundgarden and Queens of the Stone Age on "Mind's Eye" and elsewhere. Their frightfully funk-challenged "Love Train" gets promptly derailed, making one yearn for a hit of Eagles of Death Metal for relief, but its wreckage only proves how far Wolfmother is willing to push the envelope in forging their often intoxicating evocation of the past as future. --Jerry McCulley

Clean, Original, Hard Rock, Deep Poetry.......2007-07-15

First, and most important, this is music I can listen to with my kids around. Someone remembered how to make great music without swearing.

Everyone has their opinion about Wolfmother influences: White Stripes, Zeppelin, Hendrix, etc... I think that it has been so long that a band this original came out that people assume they must be ripping off the last bands to play original music.

Wolfmother stands alone, and they rock hard! This is music that will get you pumped, get you singing, banging your head, and ready to conquer the world. CHeck them out on Youtube, they are even better live, but this album is a daily listen for me.

Lot's of influences in this, but one stands out the most to me............2007-07-11

...and that would be T.Rex. I hear all the other influences and like them, but no one is making this comparison. Maybe I'm daft. It's Marc Bolan with heavier guitar sound, the lyrics are still "out there" and not so much "Glam" which is a good thing. The vocals are early Oz, Plant, Bolan......mostly Bolan. I like it.

Straight Forward Rock.......2007-07-10

This CD is the best CD that I have purchased in a long time. It is a nice return to straight forward rock without any gimmicks or passing fads. The songs are very raw without too much production or special effects. There is an energy to the music that reminds me of The Who or Zepplin. When listening to the CD in the car, it was described by my passenger as hot.

no title.......2007-07-09

The awkward, unattractive scream at the beginning of Dimension sums up the quality of this CD.
There may be a few good moments on the disc, but I agree with the dissenting reviews in that this album does injustice to many well-respected, pioneering acts and is not up to par with other music in this genre.

If Mother gets stuck in your head, buy that song from iTunes and resist the temptation to buy the whole album.

Led Zeppelin returns?.......2007-07-03

I love classic rock, and was highly impressed when I heard these guys. They remind me of Led Zeppelin. Now, I know no one can be Led Zeppelin, but these guys are pretty good for these modern times.

Amazon.com

Another multi-gazillion-dollar Hollywood franchise, another chapter in the remarkable career of John Williams. Though he's already been responsible for scoring some of the most overwhelmingly successful film series of all time, in tackling the second installment of the Harry Potter saga, Williams once again proves why his name is held in such high regard in scoring circles. While he utilizes the themes he established in Sorcerer's Stone, Williams's restless inventiveness still manages to cast this chapter in a fresh new musical light. Since many of the cues here are action or atmospheric-oriented, and thus lacking in need for strong melodic hooks, the veteran composer's mastery of orchestral color--and no small amount of stylistic reinvention--infuses the proceedings with a sense of wholeness and a surprising maturity that's a key element in conjuring up the film's crucial suspension of disbelief. Harry Potter may be but a fictional wizard, but John Williams proves yet again he's the real thing. --Jerry McCulley

A must have..........2007-07-30

This is a must have for any REAL HP fan.....had to have it! Along w/ the other ones available :)

Harry Potter.......2006-02-25

If you liked the movie, you will LOVE the sound track. I listen to it at work all day and the music takes you back to the wonderful sites in the movie.

Very inspiring and relaxing at the same time. I have ALL the sound tracks to ALL the movies, this one has the longest of the Harry Potter Themes ... "Harry's Wonderous World" Takes you right back into the movie.

Highly suggested for ANY Harry Potter fan, young or old.

A Nice Improvement Over The First One.......2006-01-07

Even though I found the score for "Harry Potter And The Sorcerer's Stone" a bit disappointing, John Williams manages to outdo himself with the second Harry Potter installmemt. It's funny that William Ross is credited as arranger and conductor, but that doesn't matter: this one has made an improvement over the score of the first movie.
The prologue presents an interesting arrangement of two important Harry Potter themes (Hedwig's theme and the wondrous world music). There are two themes that are a real knockout: one is 'Fawkes The Phoenix', which is extremely magical and wonderful; and the other one is 'The Chamber Of Secrets', with its malevolent flair and mysterious mood. The theme for Gilderoy Lockhart is very entertaining, and the one for Dobby is kind of childlike at best, very nice. The action music is also a nice treat, as shown in tracks like 'The Flying Car', 'The Spiders', 'Cornish Pixies', and 'Dueling The Basilisk'.
In general, this is a fine album, with a great performance by the London Symphony Orchestra. John Williams is definitely a master of the fantastic genre, and his music for this sequel fares better than the original.

Another Enchanting & Memorable Soundtrack by John Williams.......2005-11-01

The much-anticipated film sequel to the 2001 "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" was a delight. The 2002 film version of J.K. Rowling's second book, "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets", began with Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) actually having a real bedroom and no longer living beneath the stairs of the home belong to his Aunt Petunia (Fiona Shaw), Uncle Vernon (Richard Griffiths) and his cousin Dudley (Harry Melling). Uncle Vernon warned Harry to not make any noise or be seen while he, Petunia and Dudley entertained some very important people; but a mysterious house elf named Dobby (voice of Toby Jones) unexpectedly appeared in Harry's bedroom. Dobby warned Harry to not return to Hogwarts that year because something horrible was going to happen, but wouldn't tell Harry what it would be. He did tell Harry, however, that he was responble for taking the letters that Harry's friends Ron Weasley (Rupert Grint) and Hermione Granger (Emma Watson) had sent to him during their summer break from their first year at Hogwarts. To punish himself for revealing too much information to Harry, Dobby began to hit his head against various objects, then ran from Harry's bedroom to create havoc if Harry didn't agree to not return to Hogwarts. Harry, of course, refuses, and gets into trouble for Dobby's actions; but is rescued from the Dursley's home by Ron and two of his brothers in their father's flying car. Thus began Harry's first experience at the Weasley's home before returning to Hogwarts for his second year: a year in which many terrible things began to happen.

As John William's wonderfully enchanting and memorable music helped to set the mood for the 2001 film "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", his modified music for the 2002 film "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" was equally wonderful in setting its even darker mood. This was exemplified with musical arrangements such as "Knockturn Alley", "Meeting Aragog" and "Dueling The Basilisk". There were also some fun musical arrangements used such as "Gilderoy Lockhart ", "The Flying Car", "Cornish Pixies", "Reunion Of Friends" and the closing credits with the score entitled "Harry's Wondrous World". Though veteran composer John Williams did not receive an Oscar nomination for his work in "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" as he had a year earlier for "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", he did win the BMI Film Music Award from the BMI Film & TV Awards for this film's soundtrack.

Overall, I rate the wonderful soundtrack for the 2002 film of "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" with a resounding 5 out of 5 stars and highly recommend it. I also highly recommend the soundtracks for the 2001 "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" and the 2004 "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban". I can't wait to hear what composer John Williams has written for the upcoming release of the 2005 film "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire".

great no matter how you look at it.......2005-07-25

This soundtrack is beautiful and wonderful to listen to whether you've watched the movie or not. Every song has a mood of its own and will absolutely sweep you off your feet!

This cd is a great addition to any soundtrack collection not only becuase of the brilliant John Williams but becuase of the essence of the pieces. Most songs can stand alone especially Fawkes the Phoenix. It's also fascinating to listen for the themes from the first movie that are sometimes not so subtlely incorporated into the music. The character themes are also very believable and worth listening to especially if you didn't pay too close attention to the movie.

Another thing I've noticed about this soundtrack is that, unlike many others I own, this one is very easy to listen to all the way through without being bombarded with random battle themes and overdone effect songs. Really a great cd for anyone!

Amazon.com

In the path of enormously popular collections of number one singles by Elvis and the Beatles comes this crammed (seconds shy of the 80-minute mark) disc from another pop-culture icon, Diana Ross & the Supremes. 14 Diana Ross/Supremes tracks appear in some of their most vivid sound ever, while the post-Ross Supremes get their due with "Stoned Love." Ross' Hollywood years make for the weakest music here ("Touch Me in the Morning," "Endless Love"), but disco smashes "Upside Down," "I'm Coming Out," and "The Boss" prove as smart, canny, and enduring as Supremes 45s like "You Keep Me Hangin' On" and "Reflections." The contemporary, yet already dated, remix of "Hangin' On" at album's end suggests, in fact, that Ross might make one more dance-floor comeback if paired with the right behind-the-scenes team. Basement Jaxx, anyone? --Rickey Wright

Revisiting the 60's in Style!.......2007-07-12

This music defines my happy days living in Austin, TX while attending The University! The Supreme sounds ROCKED the halls of my Dorm and accompanied me on many of my hiking journeys up and down the Hike and Bike Trail. Diana's soft sexy voice played in the background many dark evenings while my boyfriend (now husband) and I "got busy" in the back seat of his Chevy Convertible up on Lookout Mountain! Good times!

Great songs with a great sound.......2007-05-19

I really enjoyed the song quality on this CD. It has all of my favorite Supreme & Diana hits like - Come See About Me, Touch Me In The Morning & Im Coming Out.

I love Cd's that you can put on and just let play whether at home, in the car, or in the background when company is over.

If you like the Supremes and Diana this is one of the best variety of songs available.

I say give it a try & sing along ... I did.

Diana Ross & the Supremes.......2007-05-15

If you want the best of Diana and The Supremes, this is the cd for you! It has all of the #1's from the group and Diana's solo career during the 70's. It is fantastic!

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!!!.......2007-05-06

If you love the Diana Ross music, you have to buy this cd!!! this is the best effort to compilate all the Diana's career in only one disc, and the quality of the songs (all they are remastered in stereo) is incredible!! but the best is that all the No. 1 singles from the supremes and Diana's solo single No. 1 hits are in this colection and wooow!! 24 songs !!!!; from the first hits like WHERE DID OUR LOVE GO, BABY LOVE, STOP! IN THE NAME OF LOVE and CAN'T HURRY LOVE to memorable songs like ENDLESS LOVE (with Lionel Richie), DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOU GOING TO and UPSIDE DOWN (pure disco), if you think, you can realize that you have songs from the early 60's to the late 80's IN ONLY ONE COMPILATION!!!; THEN I RECOMMEND THIS CD TO EVERYBODY!!

One advertising: some versions of this cd have the inclussion of Diana's song CHAIN REACTION (the latin-american versions like the Mexican and Argentina ones have this song), but the US version doesn't iclude this great song, unfortunately.

Fresh Versions Of Old Favorites.......2007-04-14

I bought this disc recently to add to my Supremes collection because I already knew it would sound fantastic... and it does. The remastering of these classic tracks make them sound better and more vibrant than any previously released collection. But here's the real kicker: most of these tracks appear in versions that are different than have ever been heard before!!

Hardcore Supremes fans will listen to these tracks and immediately feel a shock of revelation that they are not the same old versions that have been on compilation after compilation. Most of these tracks are newly remixed for stronger bass, more stereo separation, and now have extended endings. "Stop In The Name Of Love" for example, goes on beyond it's original fade, so that you can hear the backing track fade out while the girls keep singing until they finish cold, with one final "Stop!". "You Keep Me Hangin' On " has a longer second chorus, as well as a previously unheard cold ending. And the new mix of "Reflections" is a real eye opener, with softer psychedelic sound effects synched up from the originally released version, and an ending that continues on WAY beyond the original fade out point, with an additional coda and cold ending ( not to mention an originally deleted backing vocal in the bridge of the song )! Not every track is that radically different, but most do go on slightly longer than before, and the remastering and remixing makes them sound better than ever.

Even if you own any of the previous Supremes compilations, this collection is a must, for the alternate versions of these songs, and the much improved sound quality.

Great Idea That Misses The Mark And WAY OVERPRICED.......2007-07-31

This was a CD I had ordered without the least bit of hesitation, After hearing it I had wished I had had a chance to sample. This is a great idea,
remix one of the most popular bands of all time. However the project comes up short. Grant it that there are a few good tracks, the rest fall short of grabbing the dancefloor. You Can't Hurry Love And I'm Coming are decent dance tracks, the remix of Ain't No Mountain was to say the least DISSAPOINTING. Just a drawn out intro that never really goes anywhere. Oh Well I guess if you're a Supremes Fan you''ll buy this just for the pure novelty of the disc, my advice look for a used price that will save you $10 or $15.

Diana and The Supremes Are Never Leaving !!! .......2007-07-28

I bought this cd because i not only love them, but wanted to hear the mixes which i always buy from other artists. I LOVED them all! I would have to say that if this would've been a US release, I could so see the music company promoting the Remixed album with Stop In The Name Of Love.
First there was Marilyn Monroe Mixes from Japan, Now Diana Ross and Supremes. What next, Elvis Presley !!!

Japan DJ Mixers Know how to make you Dance!!!!

re invented.......2007-07-25

I love these mixes. I have previously bought remixes of Diana's both made in the States and in England but they merely put a revamped beat behind the groove. These Japanese remixes totally change the concept of Diana and the Supremes. The new version Of I'm still waiting is my favourite. Also deeper beats on Upside Down and the Boss have absolute excitement for me. I think we should give credit where it is due. These modern Japanese producers have made the songs sound so new and I can easily imagine them being dropped into a set at nightclubs and dance parties.

NOT EVEN FOR TRUE FANS!.......2007-07-25

the remixes are gawd awful. was hoping for some sort of dance remixes which have heard in clubs. however, the songs on this cd sound as if someone was just tinkering with some electronic equipment and decided that could be called "remixes". this is NOT worth purchasing - trust me. and I am a B I G both diana ross and the supremes fan.

Progressive Japanese Remixes Capture the Flavor of the Originals.......2007-07-25

This is a great package of remixes. The new versions are longer, deeper, and more challenging than the "safe" American remixes we get here. Some of these guys took the girls' voices way out there and came back winners. There's hard dance music, melodic "disco" type songs, and a couple of experimental sounding mixes that I hope will grow on me. The Fantastic Plastic Machine remix of Ain't No Mountain... is exciting and fun. Man, I'd love to be on a dancefloor with this song playing full blast. I'm Still Waiting is given a shuffling beat with sweet strings. All in all, you'll hear the Supremes voices sounding just as contemporary in these remixes as any of the current divas out there, and that's just wonderful. Touch Me In the Morning gets a down and dirty, fast tempo remix complete with an audience cheering. Diana's voice doesn't sound distorted at all as she asks if we know where we're going to as the music POUNDS behind her. I hope Diana Ross listens to this and gets a warm feeling knowing that a whole new generation will be discovering her voice. I'm old enough to have seen her performing with the Supremes on Ed Sullivan, and this collection respected us older listeners and gave me lots of listening pleasure.

Timeless Grace & Style.......2007-06-27

This CD is the BOSS. Reminds me of a time when you can listen, dance to it and not be embarassed if you are in mixed company. Simply the best!

The Definitive Collection.......2007-06-01

I recently purchased this product. It arrived in about a week. The CD was in excellent condition. Still in shrink wrap. There were no scratches on the cd. I have been enjoying listening to it every since I received it. I will definitely purchase again.

Classic DIANA ROSS and More!!.......2007-05-14

This is truly a spectacular DIANA ROSS collection! Not only does it contain her classic #1 hits as a sensational solo artist. It also features many of the dynamic songs from her RCA years, in additon to a newly released bonus track "What A Diff'rence A Day Makes." PLUS GORGEOUS (and rarely seen) photographs, with an informative essay booklet included!! Personally I have FIVE copies of this album in my collection.

Diana Ross Definitive Collection.......2007-03-13

it is wonderful, and I received it so promptly! I very much appreciated it, and sure brought back lots of memories!

The Boss.......2007-03-08

I purchased this CD because I heard the song "The Boss" and it brought
back memories from High School, plus I remembered seeing her on American
Bandstand. I miss that show. All those shows are gone. Can we please
get that on DVD! That song has a message of getting control of your life.
It was a celebration song of victory. She demonstrated that on American
Bandstand. The song "Muscles" was a favorite as well, I had a boyfriend
in H.S. and we have a talent show where all the football players have their shirts off and flexed there muscles off that song. "Just Good Memories!"

The title is a bit of a misnomer: The Supremes are anthologized in more comprehensive fashion on Motown's three-volume Greatest Hits series, while this package is denser, and has a higher hit-per-track ratio. But if you'd rather pick up one collection than three, and if you want a good, thorough skimming of cream from the group's catalog, this is the better choice. All of the familiar songs are here, with no major omissions--and they're packed in with a liberal helping of second-magnitude hits. For a collection that samples only the extreme top end of the Supremes' output, there's Every Great No. 1 Hit, also on Motown. It's missing a lot, but it delivers exactly what it promises. --Gavin McNett

It's About the Music.......2007-06-27

Diana Ross and The Supremes were the leading girl group at Berry Gordy's Motown Records during the 1960's and 70's. Furthermore, they were a leading group among all girl groups of the 1960's; you've only got to count their hits to know that. But recently, with the Broadway stage and movie success of "Dreamgirls," and its non-Motown, non-original sound track, many of us may be more familiar with the backstory than the group's music.

This record collection can remedy that situation. Among its 20 tracks, I count 14 songs that were big, reasonably rocking hits, Motown style, before the studio started going for a softer style that better suited the emerging solo star Diana Ross's slender voice. Holland-Dozier-Holland surely knew how to write rocking songs; the studio had a celebrated, tight backing band, and The Supremes could deliver. Listen to "Come See About Me," one of their earliest hits, and hear those girls belt it out. Or try "Back In My Arms Again," "Love Is Like an Itching in My Heart,""Stop! In the Name of Love." Any one of their 14 original hits: these girls were not peddling bubblegum.

The backstory doesn't explain their great success: it's about the music...

The best!!.......2007-01-05

Good quality and great selection!!! This is Diana Ross and the Supremes. What could be better?

Damn, these girls could SING!.......2006-07-26

The Supremes (or Diana Ross & the Supremes, whatever you wanna call 'em) had two very important things today's R&B stars lack: the undeniable songwriting power of Holland/Dozier/Holland is one. For another, they had SOUL!!! If you're tired of the cut-and-dry, emotionless "soul" (read: rap) music from Mariah Carey & friends, give this one a spin! Good songs... where can I start? At the beginning, I suppose... When the Lovelight Starts Shining Through His Eyes, Where Did Our Love Go?, Baby Love, Come See About Me, Back in My Arms Again (the latter five all #1's), I Hear a Symphony, You Can't Hurry Love (their best song in my mind), You Keep Me Hangin' On, Love Child, I'm Livin' In Shame, I'm Gonna Make You Love Me (with the Temps, a winning combo in my mind!) and the beautiful Someday We'll Be Together. And there's only one bad track over the course of 25 (yes, I'm actually admitting there is a bad song here. I deserve whatever flames I may be given) is the seriously dated No Matter What Sign You Are. Buy it, buy it, BUY IT!!!

Not entirely Supreme.......2006-01-20

OK, what you hear are all hits, but there are more hits than on this CD. And plenty of other CD-sets to pick from. But I don't want more than one CD you say. Well, then pick the #1 Supreme hits CD. With a better track-listing an far better sound quality than this one. So you have to pay a bit more; you'll be dissapointed if you buy this one and then listen to the #1 CD.

And are you really sure you don't want to hear the gems that are finally discovered on the Supremes Box set?

Awesome songs, bad audio.......2005-03-20

No sense repeating the extensive reviews regarding how influential and entertaining this music is. It's truly astounding, and the music is brilliant.

However...

In remastering these recordings, the audio engineers have apparently done what I always call a "boost and compress," which reduces dynamic range, increases overall apparent loudness, and often increases distortion. Back in the 60's, the tendency was to mix songs with vocals much louder than the accompanying music, and with very little deep bass. Nowadays the tendency is right the opposite, with electronically generated deep bass notes, and vocals barely peeking over the music. To give the Supremes a more modern sound, they seem to have compressed these tracks to bring up the music, especially the bass. The result is distorted and unnatural vocals, and compressed dynamic range, especially on the older songs. It's really a shame.

If you can't tell the difference between mp3's and CDs, you won't care. If you're an audiophile, you'll be disappointed.

On its self-titled 2002 debut, OK Go nailed the two things every decent power-pop band needs--deadly looks and deadly hooks--to deliver the knock-out hit "Get Over It." Its follow up, produced by Tore Johansson (Franz Ferdinand, the Cardigans) and recorded in Malmöö, Sweden, offers more of the same. Much more. The Chicago quartet can't seem to move through its record collection fast enough, piling on the Beach Boys harmonies, Cars synthesizer squelches and Queen-inspired fanfare on breakneck songs like "Here It Goes Again" and "Crash The Party." Without any pauses for breath or quiet contemplation, it's frankly almost too much to take in one sitting. Then again, it can't be easy trying to cram the entire history of pop in just under an hour. --Aidin Vaziri

Customer Reviews:

Smart and Sharp, oh yes!.......2007-07-24

Slick, savvy and smart, the second album from Ok Go is that kind of super clever power pop that either drives you crazy with joy of works your last nerve. When it works (like fellow mid-westerners Cheap Trick, whom OK Go often recalls), it's like a Pez Dispenser firing on automatic. When it doesn't, well, it all just comes off as calculated image aping.

"Oh No" straddles the two camps pretty well. They remind me a lot of Cheap Trick and the undervalued Urge Overkill, with new wave snap thrown in for good measure (like Weezer or The Cars -- or even The Killers -- at their poppiest). Like many others, I was drawn in my the band's videos, shot on a shoestring -- or a treadmill -- and then plastered on the likes of YouTube. Thing is, once the goofiness of the choreography wore off, "Here It Goes Again" was embedded in my brain. I decided to take the plunge and buy "Oh No," and I have no regrets.

The guys in Ok Go know their rock history. There's a little snippets of psychedelia ("The House Wins"), cynically sharp Elvis Costello bites ("A Million Ways") and the irresistible candy coated pop of "Here It Goes" and "Do What You Want." The latter really has the imprint of producer Tore Johannson (Franz Ferdinand); all jangle jagged guitar and dancebeat. The album's only downside is that sometimes the songs just come off as too derivative; like Fountains of Wayne or They Might Be Giants, Ok Go sometimes get too clever for their own good. Tacking over 30 minutes of room noise as a 14th track doesn't impress me much, either. "Oh No" is so ebuellent that you can forgive a lot of the carbon-copy, but if they can substitute some of that for carbonation, Ok Go may achieve the greatness that "Oh No" and parts of the debut hinted at. I am more than happy to keep hitting repeat every time this CD gets to "Here It Goes Again." I don't even need the video anymore.

Love it!.......2007-07-11

From start to finish, first song to last, you just want to roll the windows down in the car, turn the volume up, and sing along and do that chair dance move you do in the car!

More than just the treadmill song.......2007-07-09

This album contains more than just the treadmill song. It's full of rock-awesome with a bunch of catchy songs you didn't know existed until you hear them. It's a pleasantly surprising album loaded with their funky fun sound that makes you wanna dance.

the treadmill dance.......2007-06-25

I loved the cd soo much. Although the treadmill dance is awesome, the songs ok go sings really ARE great music. Every track was unique and fun. It is worth every penny to buy it.

3-1/2 stars -- Moving forward.......2007-05-31

I remember last year I kept trying to watch the top 20 countdown on VH1, but I always kept tuning in toward the end of the show when they were doing a recap of videos 20 through 2. One video I kept seeing on there was OK Go's "Here It Goes Again", and I kept asking, "Who the hell is OK Go?" After I finally caught the innovative video, I eventually came to the conclusion that the song only became a hit (albeit for one week) because of the video; nobody would really care about the band otherwise. But their second album Oh No is actually quite impressive.

Scooter McGavin hit the nail on the head with his review (although I'm rating it three-and-a-half stars). But when I sat down and really paid attention to "Here It Goes Again", I decided that the song isn't disposable after all. In fact, the whole first half of the album contains the strongest selections, like "Do What You Want", "It's a Disaster" and "Invincible". Moreover, if tracks 1-7 were released on an EP or something, I could easily rate it five stars.

That said, it's a shame that some of the selections on the remainder of the album aren't as enthralling. "Maybe, This Time" is boring, "Crash the Party" didn't do anything for me, and "Television, Television" really isn't much more than a throwaway song. But Oh No still has enough good tunes to warrant a purchase. If you like Weezer, you should like this.

This soundtrack offers a pretty standard mix of new songs, old chestnuts, and excerpts from the score (here by John Debney). On the new tip, Joss Stone and Patti LaBelle engage in an overheated battle of the divas on CD opener "Stir It Up," a bouncy piece of fluff that sounds more like Aretha Franklin circa "Freeway of Love" than classic soul. Other originals include Barenaked Ladies' "One Little Slip" (this movie's answer to Counting Crows' "Accidentally in Love" from Shrek 2) and the Cheetah Girls' peppy-but-bland cover of "Shake Your Tail Feather." But the real highlights are the songs performed by the movie's vocal cast, which includes Joan Cusack, Garry Marshall, Zach Braff, Steve Zahn, and Amy Sedaris. Their group cover of Elton John and Kiki Dee's "Don¹t Go Breaking My Heart," for instance, sounds as if half of them were drunk in the recording studio (and this is meant as a compliment.) Braff's a cappella version of "We Are the Champions" is smashing and Cusack and Zahn's take on the Spice Girls' "Wannabe" is completely demented. The kids will laugh; their parents will laugh even harder for completely different reasons. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

my little one loves Chicken Little.......2007-04-05

My husband bought the Chicken Little movie for our 3 year old (mostly to get us OFF the Cars movie that we all have memorized) and he fell in love with it! He likes to act out the scenes and loves the music. He loves this CD at night when he's going to bed. We all have to dance to One Little Slip (he knows all the words) and then we have to "shake our tail feathers" before he jumps in bed every night! I enjoy the cd too, so it's good for everyone!

this is a great kids cd!!.......2007-03-24

My daughter absolutely loves this cd. I could not find it anywhere until i looked on amazon, so thank you amazon!!

Great soundtrack for the children, especially if they liked the movie!.......2007-03-14

My son loved the movie Chicken Little, so we decided to purchase this for him to listen to on his discman. He loves the soundtrack as much as the movie, which made it an awesome investment(especially since the soundtrack has many good singers that aren't too hard on the ears for the adult crowdes either). My son was very happy with this item, and so was I.

Her favorite gift..........2006-12-23

I bought the CD to accompany the movie. My four year old watches the movie everyday. When I gave her the CD, after listening to it nightly, she takes it to bed with her everynight where I have to pry it out of her hands after she falls off to sleep. I don't get it, but she does...so it's worth what I paid for it.

This is a great soundtrack from a variety of different artists. If your child loved the movie you will absolutely love this CD!!!

Donnie Darko.......2007-07-03

I was drawn to buy this CD because of hearing Michael's arrangement and Gary Jules rendition of "Mad World" which was originally recorded by Tears for Fears way back when. I glad I did. The music was written as the underscore for a Science Fiction movie by the same name and now I really want to see this film. The music is other worldly, ethereal and strange in a good way!

just wanted "mad world".......2007-01-09

loved the mad world track from the Gears of War video game. was hoping the rest of the album was as cool, but it is all instrumentals. a little disappointing, i must admit.

Gary Jules' remake of this great past favorite (Mad World) is superb! The accompanying tracks on this album are not my style, but I didn't buy this for the other tracks. For that I feel this score is quite impressive.

Liked only one cut.......2007-01-04

I bought this CD for the song "Mad World". Unfortunately it was the only one I liked, but I've spent more money on dumber things.

Atmospheric and all-around cool........2006-06-05

Michael Andrews is one of today's best composers. His score for the little-known sci-fi flick "Cypher" was brilliant, and although his music in Donnie Darko is never quite as good (after all, DD was one of his first real scoring jobs), it is a somber, weird, sometimes beautiful album.
Andrews uses many bizarre non-musical instruments and female vocals to great effect, and creates an ambient, sad world that works regardless of your having seen the film.
His song "Mad World" is one of the saddest and most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
The disk isn't very long--just a little over thirty-seven minutes as I recall. But definitely recommended.
