COUNTRY GOSPEL AT ITS BEST
This is REAL Country Gospel at its BEST. The CD is absolutely fantastic. Song after song brings back fond memories of the Hee Haw television program. The music will lift your spirit and provides comfort for the troubles of the past as well as courage for the challenges of today. The richness and quality of the music was not "mixed" out in the studio. It is just like having Buck, Roy, Grandpa Jones and Kenny sitting on your front porch singing these songs just for you. If you like Country Music, Country Gospel or are a Hee Haw fan this is a MUST HAVE CD. You won't be sorry you made the purchase...I'm not!

Its a very good US debut!!!
The Backstreet Boys started out Europe,because they felt that the US were'nt ready them yet.! And when they released this CD it caused them to explode into the USA spawning 5 top 10 hit singles!!! This CD is a *GREAT* mix of pop and R&B however I hated the cover of PM Dawn's "Set adrift on memory bliss" its one of my fav songs and they murtilized it!!!But the rest of the CD is really good.! Beginning with the dancy song "We've got it going on" the first hit single in the US "Quit playing games with my heart","As long as you love me" my personal fav on the album very catchy and a cute song!!!,track five is "All I have to give" I *Love* this song its just a really GREAT song!!!, Track 7 is one of the BEST ballads of all time "I'll never break your heart" its so sweet and the harmonizing is amazing!!!,Also the tracks If you have the newer album version with "Everybody(Backstreets Back)" that's a *GREAT* dance track!!!,Get Down you're the one fore me: is a really good dancer too!!!,I *Love* the last track "If you want it to be good girl(get yourself a bad boy)" its pretty funny,catchy,sexy,and cute all at the same time!!!So go buy this album and the rest of BSB's album's cause they ALL rock the house!!!

Read My Review
I actually liked this cd! Even though almost everyone I know HATES the Backstreet Boys I actually think some of their material is actually good. This cd was better then Millenium though.

1.We've Got It Goin' On OK track, it sounds like Everybody(Backstreet's Back) 2.Quit Playin' Games(With My Heart) I liked this pop song. It's one of the reasons I bought this album.

3.As Long As You Love Me See Quit Playin' Games(With My Heart)

4.Everybody(Backstreet's Back) I loved this dance song. Though it sounds like We've Got It Goin' On, it's better. Catchy.

5.All I Have To Give Nice ballad.

6.Anywhere For You See All I Have To Give.

7.Hey Mr. DJ(Keep Playin' This Song) Nice dance track. Catchy.

8.I'll Never Break Your Heart See All I Have To Give and Anywhere For You.

9.Darlin' Didn't like it much.

10.Get Down(You're The One For Me) See Hey Mr. DJ(Keep Playin' This Song). I also liked Kevin Richardson's rapping.

11.Set Adrift On Memory Bliss

See Darlin'. Confusing.

12.If You Want It To Be Good Girl(Get Yourself A Bad Boy) See Hey Mr. DJ(Keep Playin' This Song).

Overall I really liked this cd except for Darlin' and Set Adrift On Memory Bliss. My favorite songs are Quit Playin' Games(With My Heart), As Long As You Love Me, Everybody(Backstreet's Back), All I Have To Give, Hey Mr. DJ(Keep Playin' This Song), I'll Never Break You're Heart, Get down(You're The One For Me), and If You Want It To Be Good Girl(Get Yourself A Bad Boy). I'd buy this iif I were you. I can't wait until the new Backstreet Boys album comes out in September. I'm going to buy that one too.

The Greatest CD Ever By The Greatest Group Ever
This is hands down the greatest album I have ever owned. I love 'N SYNC and I have loved Justin and JC since the Mickey Mouse Club. I am also proud to be a member of their fan club. I really hate how people compare them to the Backstreet Boys, because their styles are different. The worst is when people who haven't listened to their CD judge them. I mean, people seem to think that just because girls swoon over them, that they don't have any real talent, but they do. I speak from experience, because I went to a live show at Macy's in NYC on August 29 for my birthday which was the next day. They did NOT lip-sync, before anyone gets any ideas, and sounded great anyway, not to mention the fact that they looked amazing. For anyone who doesn't think that 'N SYNC is talented: Go to a concert and let them prove you wrong. Anyway, I hope that these guys are around for a long time because they are the genuine article. Peace, love, and stay 'N SYNC!

P.S. If I could have given the album more stars, I would have.

Entertaining,Hip,Beautiful Ballads that reaches your soul...
I READ OVER THE REVIEWS OR COMMENTS PEOPLE HAD SENT AND I MUST SAY,SHAME ON THOSE WHO BELIEVE THAT N'SYNC'S CD SUCKED.THAT REALLY PROVES YOU HAVE NO EARS FOR MUSIC,I OWN NSYNC'S CD AND I LOVE THE WORDS, THE BEAT, EVERYTHING IS JUST PERFECT I ADMIT AT FIRST I WASN'T HOOKED BUT UNTIL I HEARD IT SEVERRAL TIMES AND BOUGHT THE CD I WAS SO IMPRESSED WITH THEIR BEAUTIFUL VOICES. AND FOR THOSE WHO SAY ITS ANOTHER WANNA BE BSB YOUR WRONG! NSYNC HAS MORE ENERGITIC SONGS AND FEW BALLADS COMPARED TO BSB (DONT GET ME WRONG I THINK BSB IS GOOD TOO)BUT NSYNC HAS A DIFF STYLE THEY CAN DANCE AWESOME,THERE ALL FINE, ESPECIALLY JUSTIN AND THEY ALL FIT SO EXCEPTIONALLY WHEN IT COMES TO THEIR VOICES.(AND FOR THE BOZZO WHO SAID THERE GAY!GET REAL!JUST BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE GIRLS IN THEIR VIDEO DOESN'T MEAN THERE GAY.THE REASON FOR THAT IS BECAUSE THE FANS(US GIRLS)ARE NOT INTERESTED IN THE STUPID GIRLS WE ARE INTERESTED IN THE GROUP)BUT N-E-WAYZ I REALLY RECOMMEND YOU GUYS THIS CD ALL THE SONGS ARE GOOOOOOD!(NOTE: MAKE SURE YOU HEAR IT SEVERAL TIMES THEN NSYNC WILL SINK TO YOU AND YOUR HEART).

I wish I had saved my money.
Buying THE HITS was the first time I had really listened to Garth Brooks, and after that I followed things closely. I liked "She's Every Woman" and "The Fever" when I heard them on the radio. So on November something 1995 I bought the BEATLES ANTHOLOGY VOL. 1 and GARTH BROOKS-FRESH HORSES. At least the Beatles ANTHOLOGY is interesting to listen to (after I started reading about them I listened to it more). FRESH HORSES has little on it to offer a listener. "The Old Stuff" might be fine if done in concert, but on album in a CD boombox its stale. I can not even sit through "Cowboys And Angels", I either have to skip the song, or turn off the CD. "The Fever" may not be Country, but it is a good song, especially on a painted set. "That Ol' Wind" and "Rollin" are fine. "The Change" makes me a little tired, but its still a fine effort. "The Beaches Of Cheyenne" is without a doubt, the BEST song on the album. "It's Midnight Cindarella" would be acceptable on a better album, but here it's another strike against an already dull record. "She's Every Woman" is a terrific song. After 66% dull, I don't think I gave "Ireland" a fair listen. I ended up giving this CD to my sister, to make room for more interesting albums. Fortunately, FRESH HORSES appears to be a one-time incident, SEVENS is much more fresh, energetic, and interesting. If you're looking for a good Garth Brooks album this isn't it.

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Garth Brooks is my all time favorite singer. I love ALL his work, but especially Fresh Horses. Many people (i have read) do not enjoy this cd. But i dont understand what there isn't to enjoy. I mean most of the songs on there, if not all, are REALLY good. My friends always want to borrow this cd, so i bought two, one for me and one for my friends to listen to. And if you think so what, well get this, ALL of my friends despise country music, but they LOVE this CD, and a couple others of Garth Brooks' cds. If you get the chance to buy, DONT HESITATE!! It is THE BEST!!! Hats off to you Garth!! :)

A Great Elvis Live Collection
The Elvis-Live in Las Vegas box set is one of the single best collections of Elvis live recordings available. Even though the material on disc 3 and part of disc 4 has been previously released, it is very desirable to have, however, if you do not happen to own the Onstage or Burning Love or King of Rock 'n Roll box set albums that these songs are taken from. I also think these are included simply because these are excellent recordings, and good performances, and to me, would be essential to this box set. If you are looking for all previously unreleased performances, you will be mildly disappointed, but it is perfect to give as a gift to someone that has not heard any of Elvis' concert material in Las Vegas. The most disappointing track is "When the Snow is on the Roses", which everything has been done to clear up the sound, but it still sounds like it was recorded in a tunnel. The rest basically leaves nothing to be desired, and the sound is really good. The fourth CD is good to have, including four songs from Elvis' last appearance in Las Vegas from his two week stint in 1956, which contain some great performances, and are largely appreciated by anyone who hasn't heard Elvis live in the 50's. The rest of the tracks are from Elvis' later Vegas years, and are still very good, namely "My Boy", "My Baby Left Me", "America the Beautiful" and any version of "How Great Thou Art" is always welcome. A great box set, and even if some of it has been released before, you have to admit, it's still great music all the way around.

Elvis Live In Las Vegas Is Great, But Really Not Much New.
Most people do not take Elvis' Las Vegas years seriously. But Elvis took Las Vegas very seriously, and this is where he became a performer, and not just a novelty. This set of CDs(4 in all) shows that very clearly. Even if we don't really get anything new. We've heard all these songs before even if they are "unreleased". But Elvis performed these songs night after night and it is somewhat interesting to hear complete shows unedited. After the lengendary 1968 "comeback" TV special Elvis had the itch to perform live again. Vegas was the perfect place to return. People would come to him instead of having to set up a tour. And of course the test was, would they come. Well of course they did. In fact they came like never before or since. Which gave the Elvis camp the courage to go out on tour later. Elvis had a lot at stake in trying to prove to the world and himself that he could still cut the mustard in a musical world that had passed him by in the '60s. Well, CD 1 shows that he could still cut it, with a complete show from that all important 1969 engagement. This is a truly great disc! That's all I'll say. CD 2 has a complete show from Aug 1970. Again a fine show which shows Elvis' growth as a true showman.(But we just got the redone That's The Way It Is set last year) Cd 3 Has performances from Feb. 1970 & Feb. 1972. This is some what of a disapointment as all the songs have been previously released.(which is'nt bad if you don't have the other CDs)CD 4 starts off with 4 songs from his first Vegas appearance in 1956(in which he was considered a flop) and then there's a mixture of songs from the final years of Elvis' life, which are interesting if for that reason only. But they have found some gems here from '74&'75. One thing missing here is the dramatic 2001 Theme opening which would become Elvis trade mark. Leaving that out of this collection is like leaving the story of Adam & Eve out of the Bible. Elvis Vegas years were scattered with ups and downs, (mostly ups)and that is evident here on this collection. I've said it before and will say it again. Elvis even at his worst, is better than dozens of artists at their best. I was fortunate to see him many times and whenever I listen to these recordings it brings back great memories. The bottom line here though is that Elvis is gone, and we are not going to get anything new. Just rehashing of what we already know. Elvis is the greatest force in popular music, and no matter what, will never be equiled. If you've never heard Elvis live, or think Elvis Vegas years were a waste, get this set. You won't be sorry!

Definitive Elvis Live
Throughout the '70s', Elvis released several live albums that showcased his incomparable performing skills. This 4- cd boxed set captures him in Vegas, where he gave some of his best performances for the last 8 years of his life.

Disc 1 is from 1969, when Elvis began his long - running stint at the International. Here is where you'll find electrifying live versions of "Blue Suede Shoes", "Love Me Tender", "Hound Dog", "Jailhouse Rock", "Don't Be Cruel", and others. Similarly, his vocal performances shine on "In The Ghetto" and "Are You Lonesome Tonight" (dedicated to Mrs. Parker, the Colonel's wife who was recuperating from surgery). Also included are two monologues that are very interesting and at times very funny.

Disc 2 is essnetially the same setlist as the one featured on "The That's The Way It Is" (the boxed set). But it was recorded on a different than that performance, and there are some welcome additions to the set. He gives a powerful reading of B.J. Thomas's "I Just Can't Help Believin'". Also included are strong cover versions of "Something", "You've Lost That Feelin'", and "Bridge Over Troubled Water", plus the expected hits that became all too prominent in Elvis's early shows.

Disc 3 is very good as well, its only flaw being that none of the tracks are previously unreleased. The first 15 tracks are from 1970's "On Stage". Among the highlights are "Let It Be Me", "Release Me", and his smash hit rendition of "The Wonder Of You" (# 9 in November of 1970). The rest of the tracks are from 1972, when Elvis was going through many problems with his marriage to Priscilla. That pain is documented in several of the songs featured here, such as "It's Over" and "You Gave Me A Mountain" (the latter became a highight in Elvis's mid - '70s' shows). But he also spices things up with rocking versions of "Hound Dog", "A Big Hunk O' Love" and "Little Sister"/Get Back". But the best tracks are the slower numbers, especially his stunning renditions of "The Impossible Dream" and "An American Trilogy".

Disc 4 begins in 1956. The first four tracks are from Elvis's first performance in Vegas. This was around the same time when Elvis was creating the controversy generated from his swiveling on "The Ed Sullivan Show" and "The Milton Berle Show", so his act didn't really go over well with the older crowd. But soon the set gets back on course by covering the 1974 - 1976 seasons. These are very interesting performances because performs his more recent material and some rarely heard songs from the late '50s and early '60s'. Of the former, he barnstorms his way through top - notch versions of "If You Talk In Your Sleep", "Help Me", and "Promised Land". Of the former. he revives "Tryin' To Get To You" (this song is really great live), "My Baby Left Me" and one true Elvis classic, a tender rendition of "It's Now Or Never". He also performs scorching versions of "Burning Love" and "Big Boss Man", plus he does good cover version of "Hawaiian Wedding Song" (another staple in his latter - day shows), "Green, Green Grass Of Home", and "You're The Reason I'm Living". The final 4 tracks are really done with emotion and panache that only The King could pull off. I remember almost crying when I heard how beatifully he pulled he did "And I Love You So". I was very surprised at the inclusion of "Just Pretend". It was never one of his most popular songs, and I was sure he never performed it after 1970. But this version, from December 1975, is even better than the one featured on disc 2. Elvis's voice is very strong on this number, and is heartugging. Next comes the highlight. "How Great Thou Art" features Elvis doing what he does best. Elvis always loved gospel music, and his appreciation for it is shown fully here on this great track. Closing the album (and the set) is a gorgeous rendition of "America The Beautiful" that thus ends the most wonderful compilation of Elvis live.

New Sound
When boy-bands such as *NSYNC and Backstreet Boys served out bubblegum on their first albums, O-Town is dishing out sex. Lyrics to "Every Six Seconds," "Sexiest Woman Alive," and "Take Me Under" are about a guy's "Liquid Dreams" fantasy; songs that are definitely anti- boyband. While tracks like "All or Nothing," "Baby I Would," and "All for Love" have a "Sensitive," family oriented sound-something fans loved on the Real World/Survivor hybrid "Making the Band."

Though all of the songs on this CD are exceptional, my absolute favorite would have to be "Love Should Be a Crime" with its classic rock feel and incredible lyrics. My other favorites include their first single "Liquid Dreams," the danceable "Every 6 Seconds," and Jacob Underwood's own "Take Me Under."

O-Town's first CD is bound to please a fan of any genre of music with their dirty pop/rock/love/ alternative/R&B blend of music. A definite buy for anyone, I give O-Town's debut album four stars out of five(I would have liked "Say, Say" and "See You Again" to be on this CD.)

Making of a Super Band
O-Town was alot more than I expected. I did catch a few of the episodes and I was rather impressed. The 5 guys based in Orlando are among the best I have heard. Most of the songs have a kickin sound. Ashley, Jacob, Trevor, Dan & Erik have great harmony together. The only downfall to the album, and its no biggy is that they don't write any of the tracks or play any of the instruments. Guess they are saving that for the next one! The album is inspired by some of the great influences of music today. (You can just tell from the sound). Most of the tracks are of a "let's have fun spirit", though the cd does slow down for a couple R&B style songs. I loved listening to ALL OR NOTHING, that song just grabs you by the heart, and doesn't let go. The album also has some great strings. I was happy to hear that. Most of the album was recorded at "Boyband Central" Trans-Continental. With Lou as Exec Prod. They know how to do it!

Not all that bad
1) Intro: Come to the party - Just talking about the party. 5/5

2) Aaron's Party - You'll hear yourself say this song sucks, and then a week later, catch ur self cleaning the house and singing it. Catchy, yet crappy. 3/5

3) I Want Candy - The original sucked, and so does this one. Besides, it's a girls song! 1/5

4) Bounce - I like this song because I can hear Aaron singing in it. 5/5

5) My Internet Girl - Aaron is singing yet again. I don't get the lyrics, but he sounds alot like his brother (Nick Carter) in this one. 5/5

6) That's How I Beat Shaq - It's like they thought of the title before the songs and clumped together some words to make his cd have 12 tracks. 1/5

7) The Clapping Song - This is not handjive, or kindergarten, what the hell? 1/5

8) Iko Iko - Yet another old skool song that Aaron stole and remade worst then the first. 1/5

9) Real Good Time - Sounds a little like Bounce. 3/5

10) Tell Me What U Want - A sorta slow song, but he doesn't really sing as good as his other songs. 4/5

11) Girl You Shine - Pretty good, sounds like a song somebody would sing for the apollo. 5/5

12) Big Bad Shiney Beat Box - Interludes suck. 1/5

Aaron Carter Rocks!
I don't get why 3 QUARTERS of these reviews say that Aaron Carter is a dumb punk who sings bad.I think those people are just jealous. I borrowed this CD from a friend and I would rate it 15 stars if I could. I liked all of the songs on this CD.These are the songs.(* = one of my favorites)

Aaron's Party- It's about when Aaron gets grounded for throwing a party at his house when his parents aren't home *

I Want Candy- A Remake but it's okay

Bounce- I love this song!!! It's when Aaron plays basketball 1 on 1 with this tall guy *

My Internet Girl- This one is when Aaron emails his girlfriend

That's How I Beat Shaq- This one is funny!! One the music video it acually shows Shaq crying! *

The Clapping Song- This one is okay, but it's always in my head

Iko Iko- This one is okay but not as good as the others

Real Good Time- The beginning of this one is funny! *

Tell Me What You Want- This one is okay

Girl You Shine- This one is really sweet. *

swedish pop on the charts
Teen Spirit reveals a new face of a-teens. After the huge success of "Abba Generation", their debut album, a-teens is back for more, showing they can do more than abba covers. The original idea of bringing abba songs back, with a modern beat, was good, but their fans noticed a-teens had to perform their own songs to have a solid career.

This second CD is great because all their songs are original, but at the same time the band manages to keep abba spirit alive. Some of the new songs are very similar to N'SYNC, Britney and BSB ("That's what (it's all about), Rockin'), but it is not only a repetition of these popular singer/bands. A-Teens has its own swedish style and it makes them great on stage.

The whole album is good, specially "halfway round the world", "..to the music" and "upside down". I also love "morning light", which reminds me a lot of another great sweden band, Ace of Base (just compare!).

If you like swedish pop, this is a MUST-HAVE CD for you.

Pop at it's best!
I didn't care for the A Teens first album only because if I wanted to hear Abba tunes I would just listen to my Abba Cd, not that it was bad it's just I prefered the real thing. So I was very surprised at how much I loved this album. It is fantastic pop at it's best. Filled with fun, funky, uptempo tracks this album is a must have for all fans of pop music. Great tracks like Bouncing of the Ceiling and Halfway Round the World will certainly get you dancing and songs like Sugar Rush and Fire Fly will keep you smiling as the group slows things down a bit. All have pleasent voices and they have a ton of energy. Few albums can pull off the feat of having every song be enjoyable. This is one of them and I commend these guys for staying true to their age and putting out a really fun, funky, and catchy album that everyone will love. With that said, it's time these guys started getting some recognition in radio.
