1 out of 5 stars Not for fans of the music in the movie ... .......2007-07-21

Sure, maybe some of the songs in this collection were tacked on in edited forms into the closing credits, but the majority of the music in the film is not here. Great tracks by Rachid Taha (off his Made in Medina album) figure prominently through out and aren't here. Jasmine Tabatabai not only contributes a memorable song to the film, but can be seen performing it live in an early club scene. Also not on the cd.

If you like the darker, richer, exotic music of the film, pick up albums by Taha and Tabatabai.

If you like mediocre compilations of absolutely horrifying covers of once great songs (I actually got physically ill hearing the versions of Venus in Furs and Killing Moon) then maybe pick this up.

The one or two decent tracks (ok, one) like Collide's just aren't worth the buy in.

The art of soundtracking and film scoring has reached an all time low here.

5 out of 5 stars This album is way better than the film..........2007-02-03

Since the first review focused on what they didn't know about the bands, I'll point out some of the acts:

Tre Lux is Tina Root of Switchblade Symphony, one of the biggest Dark Wave bands of the 90's.

Shiny Toy Guns are huge right now, just played Leno a month ago.

Collide are one of the bigger bands of the goth/electro scene.

Bow Wow Wow...even the other reviewer knew who they are.

Sparklemotion had a hit on itunes from the Napoleon Dynamite Sountrack.

New Skin are a new English band produced by one of the guys who produced Depeche Mode and the Cure.

but whatever - the point is the album is really good - there's only one song I wasn't crazy about and for a soundtrack, that's saying a lot.

I can't say the same for the film...but oh well.

2 out of 5 stars Yet Another 80's Mostly Lame New Wave Cover Song Collection by Mostly Unknowns.......2007-01-28

I get the impression that cover song collections are quite the rage in Hollywood Movie circles when dealing with 'troubled' movie productions. It's cheap in that all the artists cannot command any upfront cash for their appearance. It smacks of indy-cred to get these artists, mostly electro-goth types, together. Too bad most of the cover versions are only mildly interesting. I also suspect that the soundtrack CD will be of more interest in a years time than the movie will...Why the producers of the film decided to so radically transform the book into a forced-copy of 'Underworld' escapes me, I guess filming for so cheap in Eastern Europe was the main reason. Too bad, I really enjoyed the book. Buy the book instead of buying this CD or watching the movie.

Except for Bow Wow Wow (glad to see they are struggling along still, but this IS DEFINITELY NOT their best work), almost all of these bands are probably unknown to 99.99% of the listening public. I have heard of Collide before this, kinda synthy darkwave band, very enjoyable, please go buy their other work ;) Almost of these songs lack the excitement and punch of the originals, why bother then making effort? I guess if I must, the first three songs are pleasant enough to listen to and I kind of like the Collide number as well...The rest can be safely deleted if you decide to convert these tracks to MP3s and just keep the aforementioned four tracks.

Bow Wow opens his fifth CD, The Price of Fame with a solemn interview clip in which the rapper/actor discusses "the mental breakdown dealing with the price of fame," thus setting the stage for a deeply emotive release. For a handful of tracks, he does exactly that, showing fans--and his competition-- just how refreshing that can be. The disc's first single, "Shortie Like Mine," featuring fellow teen heartthrob Chris Brown finds Bow Wow spitting rapid-fire rhymes and embedding lyrical skills with his especially melodic rap style. "Tell Me" combines those same talents mixed with surprisingly candid subject matter: a plea to get his ex to come back to him. As he implores "I'm a whole different individual now/everybody but you invisible now" to compelling back beats and samples (thanks to co-Executive Producer Jermaine Dupri), it feels like the pair could create a new genre: emo/electro/hip-hop. Dupri's amped-up hooks drive the disc, staying consistent while Bow Wow's identity oscillates between a lover and a wanna-be gangsta. Other songs worth noting are the hidden track, an R. Kelly duet dubbed "I'm a Flirt" and the cheeky "Damn Thing" featuring Da Brat. On the downside, a number of tunes contain far too much thug posturing: "Bet That," "4 Corners" (featuring Lil' Wayne) and the 50 Cent-inflected "On Fiya" are filled with clichéd car/money/thug lyrics, causing Bow Wow's uniqueness to get lost in the flow. --Denise Sheppard

3 out of 5 stars I like it but the edit has to go!.......2007-06-16

The CD is overall really good but its edited!!! His last album "Wanted" isn't edited at all he says "N****" plenty of times but on this every bloody word that is "innapropriate" is gone... Even Da*n... CMON!! UR MATURE NOW BOW WOW time to make an Explicit CD!!!

Another brilliant album

1 out of 5 stars What a thief! "Outta My System" track is a stolen instrumental from French rapper Passi.......2007-03-20

What a damn thief Bow Wow is!
The song "Outta My System" is a stolen instrumental from French rapper Passi's track "79 a 97."
Don't believe me? Need proof?
Just listen to the track "79 a 97" on Passi's album titled "Les Tentations"....that's all you need to hear to find out the truth.
It's disgraceful and disgusting to see this Bow Wow guy having to steal and copy someone else's work just to make a quick buck.
I hope this review will begin to spread word about what a fraud this little punk is.
A disgrace!

4 out of 5 stars A good collection for the passive Bow Wow Wow fan........2006-11-09

Like a ton of only people, I only really knew of the early 80's band Bow Wow Wow was in the form of their smash cover of the 60's song "I Want Candy". Also, like a lot of males growing up in the 80's, I remember their hot jailbait female singer who was only 16 when her and her bandmates made the video for I Want Candy. The fact that they almost always had her fully nude on a lot of their album covers/singles didn't hurt either. ;)

In fact, check out almost any 80's pop collection of any sort and it's bound to have I Want Candy on there.

But this band was highly influential to a lot of musicians. Musicians as diverse as Gwen Stefani (No Doubt), Larry "Ler" Lalonde (Primus) and Flea (Red Hot Chili Peppers) have mentioned about how profound of an effect this band had on them in the early days.

To be honest, though, Bow Wow Wow has always been kind of an easier band to fully appreciate than to actually like.

Which brings me to this recent Bow Wow Wow compilation done by VH1 classic and Sony. Is this the most thourough compilation of their material? Not by a long shot. Also, at only 45 minutes in length, they could've put a lot more on here. If someone is a hardcore fan, they'll probably go after the 30 dollar 2 disc anthology that was only released in the UK.

But for a more passive fan or someone just wanting to hear what they were about beyond their one hit in the states "I Want Candy", this is ideal listening.

You get 14 tracks with most of them being taken from their actual album I Want Candy.

Compared to some of the other "We Are the 80's" compilations, thie remastering job done here isn't quite as stellar. But it still sounds better than the original versions. I just wish that the same time and care had been put into mastering these tracks. Compare this to the Scandal WLT80's compilation and from a sonic angle it comes up short.

Bow Wow Wow's sound is really hard to describe and really needs to be heard and properly absorbed to get what they were doing. Jungle rhythms permeate most of the proceedings in terms of the tribal percussions heard throughout. The bass player is absolutely phenomenal. The guitarist's style would heavily influence bands like early Chili Peppers stuff.

And the female singer's vocals are playful, sexy and full of innuendo. It might make someone feeling so guilty due to she was only 15 or 16 when she cut most of these tracks, but hey, when I was growing up in the early 80's and was only 8 or 9, she was one of the hottest women around.

While purists will bemoan the lack of many tracks, this does work perfectly fine as an overview of their material and sound. A lot of people won't like it as a lot of the tracks don't follow the normal verse/chorus/verse/chorus/solo style of songwriting. It's kind of more of a funky, poppy, jungle rhythm type of stream of consciousness type of songs.

Some of the tracks do tend to run together, so I'm having to knock 1 star off of my ranking.

5 out of 5 stars I Want Bow Wow Wow.......2006-08-02

I could NOT be more excited about this CD being released with my favorite song of all time: I Want Candy!!! This CD is going into permanent rotation in my CD player starting today. Of course along with the rest of the We Are the 80s collection. =)

5 out of 5 stars Do You Wanna Hold Me? Great Bow Wow Wow Set.......2006-07-23

Bow Wow Wow are also one of the select few artists in the new VH-1 Classic "We Are The 80s" CD collection. Bow Wow Wow-We Are The 80's arrives in stores on July 18th. The CD includes 14 songs from Bow Wow Wow including their biggest hits "I Want Candy," "Baby, Oh No," and "C30, C60, C90."

Faithful Bow Wow Wow fans know that lead singer Annabella Lwin was only fifteen years old when the group recorded their debut album. According to the liner notes Annabella's mother attempted to ban the release of the groups first album See Jungle! See Jungle! Go Join Your Gang, Yeah, All Over! Go Ape Crazy! due to the fact that Annabella appeared on the cover in the nude. Annabella was discovered by former Sex Pistols manager Malcolm McClaren who was looking for a new singer for a new band. Matthew Ashman, Leigh Gorman, and Dave Barbarossa, who were former members of Adam and the Ants rounded out the group that would become Bow Wow Wow.

McClaren was integral to the early days of Bow Wow Wow, but he stopped working with the group after their first album. Bow Wow Wow toured the United States for much of the early 80's. Sadly, group member Matthew Ashman passed away in 1995 due to diabetes.

Adrian Young, best known for being the drummer in No Doubt toured with the band in 2004. The CD, Bow Wow Wow-We Are The 80's includes a very well written history of Bow Wow Wow. The liner notes were written by Randy Haecker, Director of Media Relations for Sony BMG Legacy. He has been writing about pop culture since the early 80s.

The songs on the set sound great. The biggest hits, "C-30," "Do You Wanna Hold Me?" and "I Want Candy" are here. It would have been nice if they fit a few more songs on the set since most of their songs are short.

3 out of 5 stars Growing Up too fast!.......2006-06-01

Since day one, I have come to like Bow Wow and I'd have to admit he is the one reason I have drawn away from the Backstreet Boys. Anyway Wanted is an album that I have doubts about. I enjoy the songs on it for the most part and feel that he has matured, however I at times feel that Bow Wow tries a lil' too hard to let listeners know that he has grown up. I love Bow Wow but in my opinion he doesn't have to use the "N" word for listeners to know that he has grown up. Also listenin' to cuts such as "Do You" and "Freshazimiz" you can tell that he is full of himself. As a fan though, I would have to say that this album is pretty good, however I don't think that he has to try to display a thug image in order to grow.

Amazon.com

Only punk rock entrepreneur Malcolm McClaren would think of putting a 15-year-old Burmese temptress (Annabella Lwin) in a wisp of a loin cloth in front of a bunch of guys with painted faces, all beating on drums. Bow Wow Wow, another of his projects after the Sex Pistols, was a celebration of all things tribal. Songs like "Golly Golly Go Buddy!" and "TV Savage" were percussive enough to rattle everything in the cupboards with Annabella's sing-song vocals barely, if not enthusiastically, carrying the melodies. There was a great deal borrowed from primitive chants, and "Prince of Darkness" and "Chihuahua" both sounded as if the band was conjuring up some voodoo spirits. "I Want Candy," Bow Wow Wow's biggest hit, reverberated with a big hollow body guitar lead and again drums, drums, and more drums. By the time of "Candy" and "Louis Quatorze" Annabella's vocals were starting to mature past the yelps, and she finally sounded as if she could catch her breath. Her solo turn, "Fever" had Lwin fully in control of her sensuality, and her version of the classic is as strong as any. When assembled en masse, Bow Wow Wow's Best of suggests the band was more than just a McClaren footnote, being contenders in their own right. --Steve Gdula

Bow Wow Wow is not a Household Name, They Charted Once in the USA with "I want Candy" (Top 50), and released only 3 Proper Albums...Their Sound is Tribal, the Lead Singer Annabella often Yelps to Percussive Drumming and throbbing Bass, The Mixture yields Many Great Tunes, but it can take getting used to, as it did for Me, I was not a Fan untill much listening...If You don't know a lot of the Group's Songs, I suggest listening to as many 30 second Samples as possible to get a feeling of whether this stuff is digestible...Most of the Songs here are first-rate, I particularly Love "TV Savage", "Golly Golly Go Buddy!" and "Louis Qatorze", along with Annabella's Solo Turn "Fever"....If You want to explore further, I suggest the CD "Girl Bites Dog: Your Compact Disc Pet" to round out Your Collection, it includes more Gems, such as "Sexy Effiel Tower" (Where 14 Year-Old Annabella Pants Orgasmically...and more authentically than Donna Summer)and "Radio G String", as well as 3 Cuts from this CD in different versions; But begin here, and don't go further unless You Adore this CD....

5 out of 5 stars Actually...the band *is* "the Ants" :).......2005-09-25

...and not a "rip off" thereof. Adam "Ant" left the band...the band (Adam and the Ants) and their manager found a new singer, and a new direction, in Myant Myant Aye...er, Anabella Lwin.

Just wanted to clear that "rip off/stolen" thing up...and add that I listen to this record often...C30,C60,C90 Go!...relevant for our times, even tho a lot of people don't know what a C30/60/90 even is anymore :)

5 out of 5 stars I hate nostalgia, but..........2003-06-09

This record conjures up fond memories and at the same time is proof-positive that Bow Wow Wow was way before its time. I just love "Where's My Snake" and "Chihuahua" which were hard to find in the 80's (at least for me), and it is nice to have a compilation like this that presents the true essence of this original, fun band. Great, great fun!!

3 out of 5 stars Get the import!.......2003-05-30

Bow Wow Wow have some great tunes, but my favorites are all on the IMPORT The Best of Bow Wow Wow, not this domestic version. The import has the original versions, which I prefer. The tracks on the domestic CD are overproduced and play like "extended disco versions".

5 out of 5 stars I haven't listened to this stuff since the 80's...........2001-03-27

...I must say it's nice to come back to after hearing the dreck that's out nowadays. The drums & bass on this CD are far above what you hear these days. The bass player is very funky in a non-overkill-slapping way (e.g. Flea). He's sort of a cross between Rocco Prestia (Tower of Power) with a little bit of Mark King (another Brit, from Level 42) thrown in. Very rhythmic stuff and more power to them in pulling it off in a post-punk/new-wave pop era & style. One thing the CD lacks is the naughty song "Sexy Eiffel Tower" which is sort of the 80's version of a Donna Summer album (a lot of heavy breathing). But overall this is an excellent CD for the money for an underrated and hard-to-find band.

5 out of 5 stars This album is tight.......2006-02-25

Viper the one who said that this album is wack needs to stop hatin he's just mad because bow wow's accomplished more than he ever will he said the same thing about Doggy Bag. He needs to stop hatin on Bow wow because the 11 tracks that he made was hot and it's a really good start for a 13 year old. If he got so much mouth why dont he come out with a C.D. and let us critic it. I bet he wont like what we have to say about it.



Oh yeah I forgot to say G-unit aint even all that

5 out of 5 stars This is what I'm talkin about.......2006-01-19

This CD is a classic Bow Wow CD. This is very 1st CD before he became Bow Wow. There's a lot of hot tracks on this album like "Playboy", "Bounce With Me" and "Bow Wow (That's My Name)". Yo but there's a lot of guest appearance like Snoop Dogg, R.O.C., Jermaine Dupri, Da Brat, Xscape and Jagged Edge. Lil' Bow Wow was 12 years old when he came out with this CD. This is probably the best out of all his other albums he came out with.

5 out of 5 stars And we thought Romeo sucked(and he does)........2005-12-22

Just read the title.Pause, take a minute,meditate and think long and hard about what's just been said.Then you should get the picture.

1 out of 5 stars Beware of this album.......2005-12-12

Bow Wow sucks, he's horrible and always will be. He has bubblegum watered down lyrics, stupid content, juvenile topics, and absolutely no talent what so ever. If your 10 or over and you listen to this, I pitty you. Go get some Eminem, G-Unit, Dipset, Snoop Dogg ect. Not this watered down crud, there is so much better rap out there than this crap.

5 out of 5 stars Bow Wow.......Nerd/Thug you decide.............2005-11-16

Bow...Wow is trying to be something he's not.His blend of r/b/rap dont mix and he just cant draw the line between nerd and thug.Its like drawing an line between cats and dogs,they dont mix.Or apples and oranges they dont mix either.And Bow -Wow and rap definetly dont mix either!

Album Description

Johnny "Guitar" Watson was adept at keeping current, so it's ironic that by the time of this 1994 album, released after a decade's layoff, he was soaking up the sounds of Prince, who had of course been deeply influenced by Watson himself. Bow Wow spawned two R&B charting singles, but Watson's death soon afterwards marked the end of a still-vital music career.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars one of his best.......2006-10-24

Johnny Guitar Watson's last (and one of his best) albums. Released in 1994, right before he died onstage during a concert in Yokohama, Japan, of a heart attack. This CD runs the gamut from funk, soul, and blues, and is one of the best albums Johnny made from beginning to end. The recent copy I purchased contains two additional unreleased songs, which makes it all that much sweeter for me. Everybody I have played this for loves this CD. I can never get enough of this guy.

5 out of 5 stars Bow Wow Wow's best release.......2004-04-03

This is the music that comes to mind when I think new wave; fast beats with a punk undertone, high energy and fun. It's on my list of top 50 albums of all time (bear in mind I'm a huge new wave fan). I can play this entire album without skipping any tracks. If you like this one, you should also try When the Going Gets Tough by Bow Wow Wow.

4 out of 5 stars seductive.......2007-03-31

Seriously, this soundtrack is exactly what the movie needed, and frankly should have been. The music is seductive, driving, pounding, creepy and thrilling. Its electronica, in the giorgio morodor mode. In fact harold faltermeyer, who wrote the music was giorgio's writing partner. The non instrumentals were catchy though not radio friendly, but today, at 4am driving to work on a long commute, i was captivated again, after 22 years! every note is where it should be. i finally got this on cd - as i wore out the vinyl. If you are a fan of pulsating electronica of the 80's, then i recommend tracking down this cd - mine came from denmark with remastering and remixes - and its as clear as anything moby or bt wish they could come up with -

5 out of 5 stars Thief Of Hearts Soundtrack.......2005-10-30

Thief Of Hearts Soundtrack is really cool. I have seen 2 different editions to this rare and out of print soundtrack. The original and a digitally remastered version with extra tracks. I own the original version and Highly recommend it. The music is very calm, relaxing and uplifting.

Album Description

When the Going Gets Tough The Tough Get Going is a well-polished, well-executed effort that holds some surprises mainly in the fact that there is more diversity than prior Bow Wow Wow records. Producer Mike Chapman (Blondie & Pat Benatar) adds a gloss to the ballads Lonesome Tonight and the dreamy Love Me, with Annabella Lwin toning down her usual frantic delivery. The Man Mountain sounds like an old, folk song. And, there's also the straight-ahead, playful pop that you'd expect from the band on the ultra-hooky single Do You Wanna Hold Me and Tommy Tucker, which begins as a nursery rhyme and concludes with a quasi-football chant. Reissue of their 1983 album featuring the hit 'Do You Wanna Hold Me' & the original cover art. 12 tracks.

5 out of 5 stars A desert island treasure!!.......2004-08-18

Truly one of the most over looked "New Wave" bands from the 80's. Founder Malcolm McLaren was so ahead of his time and Bow Wow Wow was just that.
Just having seen them live in San Diego on their "Reunion" tour they were incredible. I had much more respect for them as Annabella sounded and looked better than ever. Adrian from "No Doubt" joined them on drums for the tour and he had every drum beat down to perfection.
This CD is a must for any 80's alternative lover. BWW has so many influences and such a special sound with the surf guitar and tribal drumbeats. From "Hey, Buddy" to "Man Mountain" as all the tracks here are excellent listening for any music mood.
We met Annabella back stage and she is trying to get her website going and get on a new record label, look for some new material very soon from her and the band. I like all their CDs but this would be the first one to buy if you are a first time listener.

5 Stars all the way!!!

5 out of 5 stars The Tough Got Going.......2001-05-02

They fired MM went out on their own and did their best album. Then they broke up. Oh well, the songs on this album are all pure energy. Bararrosa's unique drums and LeRoy and Mathew's strings deliver that unique BWW sound. "Do You Want to Hold Me" will get the deadest party going. There are the usual BWW sex (wink wink) songs like "Aphrodisiac", but there are also some silly bits with "Ricke Dee" and "Roustabout." As a result the album is wide ranging yet always distintly BWW feast. In all cuts Anabella comes off at her best, sounding more like Terri Gunn of Berlin than a 16/17 year old. This is a must for any fan of the early New Wave scene that grew out of punk, with some real talent to boot.

5 out of 5 stars unjustly obscure due to widespread ignorance.......1999-08-27

Bow Wow Wow seem to most an early eighties new wave band that if you want a recording by, get the "Best Of." WRONG! Along with the I Want Candy cd this is essential. Brutal drum rhythms back Matthew Ashman's stinging guitarwork; and the bass of Leigh Gorman (the best relatively unknown bassist around) speeds up and down the fretboard funking and popping his way to utopia. Annabella sounds sexy and fun throughout the disc and sings with a sexual attitude that belies her age. Believe me, if you even have the slightest inkling of buying a BWW disc, get this one first.
