Here, a year after her sensational Metropolitan debut as Prokofiev's Natasha from War and Peace, comes the debut solo recital album of 30-something soprano Anna Netrebko. She hails from southern Russia, and her emergence from the life of a conservatory student has a touch of the Cinderella tale—the bit, that is, about being discovered by Gergiev mopping floors for the Kirov as a part-time job and making her way into the Kirov's ranks. Later she became a favorite at San Francisco Opera, trying on for size a swath of comic and dramatic roles. Opera Arias parades Netrebko's way through a spectrum of vocal styles and characters. This mesmerizing lyric soprano engages--at times thrillingly grips--the listener with an imagination far greater than the disc's title (couldn't someone have dreamt up a less ridiculously bland handle?), but most significantly leaves an impression that the enterprise here isn't merely about singing. Netrebko's Ilia and Donna Anna are flesh-and-blood characters in real situations, as Mozart wanted them to be. The results are a bit more uneven with her bel canto heroines, where the required balance between Netrebko's emotional identification, so obviously a forte, and the musical phrasing thereof is a delicate one. Her shading of Lucia's mood swings, vocal and emotional, isn't consistently compelling. On the other hand, Netrebko uncovers gemlike facets not just in Gounod's "Jewel Song" but particularly in her stunning, passionately realized and beautifully phrased Manon (even if her trills disappoint). A shame that samples of her Russian repertory are missing here, though Netrebko's "Song to the Moon" from Dvorak's Rusalka concentrates and sets a mood with enviable mastery. Netrebko's musical intelligence and theatrical savvy seem destined to ensure her a magnificent career, so it's no surprise that many fans are already clamoring for more than the tease of an aria collection. --Thomas May

Bright Star.......2007-07-13

If you like opera, if you like the lyric soprano, if the vocal range of the colortura causes goose bumps to rise, Anna Netrebko is a must. Roberta Peters, Beverly Sills, Anna Moffo, Joan Southerland, Maria Callas, she takes a back seat to none of them,she sits he front seat with the best of them and guess what? She is beautiful too.

Anna Netrebko: Opera Arias.......2007-03-29

Her voice takes my breath away, I fell in love with her.
I highly reccomend it.

First DGG album--very promising.......2007-02-01

Anna Netrebko has rapidly become a first tier star in opera. This album, her first at DGG, illustrates why some rate her so highly; it also illustrates some of the questions that some have raised about her. All in all, though, a very nice CD.

A few selections illustrate:

Mozart, Idomeneo, "Quando avran fine omai." She displays a rich and clean voice. There is a very attractive quality to her voice manifest in this work.

Mozart, Don Giovanni, "Crudele? Ah no, mio bene!...Non mi dir." This is Donna Anna's poignant aria, given her circumstances. Netrebko displays rich tones. This is a well sung cut. "Non mi dir" shows off some agility in her voice.

Donizetti, Lucia di Lammermoor. "Ancor non giunse!. . .Regnava nel silenzio. . .Quando rapito in estasi" Something of a disappointment. Coloratura is not her forte (and see her "Sempre Libera" CD for further confirmation). She clearly shows off a rich and lush voice. I think that she displays some characterization here that is compelling. She hits high notes cleanly. But her ornamentation is indifferent, and she appears unable to trill. I know, some say that that is irrelevant. But compare Beverly Sills' version of this work, with almost too many trills extraordinarily well sung and her florid technique, and this version simply pales.

Bellini, La Sonnambula. "Care compagna. . .Come per me sereno." Again, Netrebko displays a rich voice. She displays an agile voice and the ability to hit the high notes. Her rendition of "come per sereno" is spirited.

Gounod, Faust. "The Jewel Song." Very smooth singing; animated singing. But the technique does not measure up to Anna Moffo's version--let alone Joan Sutherland's.

Puccini, La Boheme. "Musetta's Waltz." Yikes! What a version. Brava Netrebko. Her darker voice is very well suited to this. The characterization of Musetta seems on the mark. A wonderful cut.

All in all, this shows the promise of Netrebko. It also indicates where her strengths are and where she does not do so well (coloratura work). However, this is a very nice introduction to her work and her art.

Remarkable!.......2006-11-02

Perhaps her voice is not as candid as some other sopranos, but her rendition of the score and interpretative expression make her and exquisite hearing pleasure. This recording shows a more matured artist capable of capturing the role dynamics and emotions.

Yes, her voice is not as lyric as you might expect, and some roles may sound a little big heavy (sometimes maybe bordering verismo), but definitively at stated before hearing her is a gloriuos pleasure, almost as good as looking at her.

Beautiful voice, beautiful girl.......2005-11-22

When I heard Anna Netrebko singing Quando Men Vo I was stunned by a voice of stunning purity, great power and sheer beauty. The best Musetta I've heard! Her Song to the moon is stunning and I love her Bel Canto! Anna Netrebko has a very bright future ahead of her. Her Mozart is top class!

I love this song! I've never really listened to John Legend before this but his soulful voice really captures you! It's such a soothing song that so naughty at the same time. lol. The first time I heard this song they were playing it on the Eric & Kathy show on Chicago's WTMX 101.9 The Mix for their Two Strangers and a Wedding Social Experiment. They played it during the wedding reception and he is just as good live as he is on this CD....if not better! That's a hard quality to find in artists now-a-days.

Customer Reviews:

These guys are on their way!!!!!!.......2006-08-12

Out of California comes a band Called Hypnogaja. Out Burn Magazine calls them "Entralling, first rate modern rock." & The Denver Post says "Pushes Boundries" also MTV has Picked Up their Video called "They Don't Care".

Below Sunset" is a great album for many reasons. It takes the listener on a journey - a trip that transcends the boundaries of the rock genre without alienating anyone seeking music that has appeal. The melodies, lyrics and performances all work together to create a tapestry that is consistently satisfying throughout all of the songs.

Hypnogaja is able to connect with the listener on a level that is far beyond that which many bands are ever able to achieve, without the air of pretentiousness that usually surrounds such high brow artistry. Thus, "Below Sunset" works on a plane that is both larger than life while still capturing an incredible sense of intimacy.

Rockers like "They Don't Care," "Misery," "Normal On The Outside," "Scorned" and "Put Your Hate On Me" all have an epic quality that urgently encompasses aggression, passion and frailty. Textured compostions such as "Looking Glass" and "Silver Star" showcase ShyBoy's sterling vocal abilities. And in softer moments such as the beautifully arranged "Wash It All Away," and the stunning piano ballad "Quiet," one is shown the true breadth of Hypnogaja's abilities. A highly recommended listening experience.

This album is amazing. I haven't stopped listening to it since I bought it. There are so many songs that I absolutely love, that speak to my soul. The vocals are breathtaking, so full of power, emotion and different colors. The fluid, theatric quality of the arrangements really supports the intelligent lyrics. Aggressive. Melodic. Dramatic. Moody. Breathtaking.

I purchased this album and at first was dissapointed a bit. But as I listened to it it really grew on me, the first three songs are excellent but the real jewell is song 9-trully a great song...........these guys are good, hopefully they will get the recognition they deserve

NEGATIVE FIVE stars would be a better rating.......2004-02-20

Sadly, Brad Roberts has laid another rotten egg with this boring , uninspired drivel.
The first two Dummies albums were works of genus (Ghosts that Haunt Me and God Shuffled his feet)
Brad has either run out of ideas or motivation as every work since has been a collection of monotonous droning.
He needs to get back to his roots or give it up.

No, this is a FIVE star CD.......2003-10-18

this is a welcome refreshing outing by CTD. I really enjoy the freshness to it. many folks have noted that it sounds like they didn't spend too much time editing these songs.. and I agree. They really sound garage bar like but wonderful none the less.

I think that the fans of CTD will enjoy this recording due to the fact that the bass rattling baratone of Brad Roberts is back, after a hiatus on GYAH.

The songs do have a Chris Issack meets the Eagles type of sound, but not really. All CTD's here.

Have ye fun.
**************************
Update...

I had originally bought this CD a couple weeks ago. I listened to it and reviewed it. I oringally gave it four stars. but after two good solid weeks of listening to this CD, I really think it is outstanding and deserving of a 5 star rating. I have not taken this CD out of my stereo in quite some time... and if I do, it is to play the new Elvis Costello 'North' CD. They rotate. both are great.

Dummies' best album, a real mood piece........2003-08-05

With this album, the latest work from the Crash Test Dummies (barring the rehashed Christmas album Jingle All The Way), megalomaniac (read: Brad owns the band name, but Brad's band is NOT the actual Crash Test Dummies on this album... however, since a few of them appeared on the tour, it was renamed as a CTD album during production) singer Brad Roberts may have constructed the ultimate concept album for one of two situations, the first being hanging out, or driving in, the rain (as contemplated in "On And On"). The second is proposed in "Buzzing Flies": the days when you're sitting on your arse in 100+ degree heat and lamenting your life. Therefore, the whole album has become a soundtrack to my life, as I find myself in both situations frequently. Here are some highlights.

The title track opens, featuring a "we're rolling now" intro. It appears they didn't spend a lot of time on some of these tracks in the mixing and editing process. However, these sort of little studio insights give us a real, dare I say, insight to the album itself, and Brad Roberts' mind as well, if you're bold enough to go there. This title track is traditional Dummies with a new country sound, a very minimalist and low-key sound. Ellen Reid delivers an excellent backup vocal performance, as always.

Track 2 and second single "On And On" is a simple little number with a catchy melody and one of Roberts' more vibrant lyrical/sonic performances on the album. This is about as loud as it's going to get. Third single and only video "The Day We Never Met" has very clever lyrics about actually falling in love with someone who really doesn't exist. It features an extended piece of music from Brad's Band at the end, which balances the lyrics nicely. One of the nicer pieces of music on the album.

"Let It Feel Like Something Else" and "Little Secret" are two countrified tracks that could have come off of Give Yourself A Hand, with their keyboard leads and bassier sound. However, they're still rooted in twang, so don't get your hopes up if you want more GYAH.

"Buzzin' Flies", my personal favorite, features Brad singing over a minimalist guitar line, some drums, and a squeaky old transistor radio. These are some of the best lyrics in the band's catalog IMO. However, it sounds a lot like "On And On" and the next track "Yer Devil Ways", which is again slow and has a rainy-driving feel.

First single "Every Morning" is nearly as catchy as "On And On", but from hearing this song on the radio a lot when the album came out, I don't listen to it very often. Has a verse about masturbation, which is the ultimate topic to prove Brad Roberts' megalomania.

If you like the sixth album, Jingle All The Way, you'll like "Never Comin' Back". Featuring Ellen Reid and a big bright organ front and center, Brad Roberts jumps in with an excellent vocal and content that juxtaposes nicely against the far-too-upbeat organ line. The band has always been famous for pulling such tricks.

"Shoot 'Em Up..." is the climax of the record, and one of my favorites. I recommend that readers go and download this song to get at the essence of the album before you buy it. A typical Brad Roberts number. Nothing like it: "I shot an ol' bottle with my favorite gun just last night/
It shattered and the sound made me feel like the king I am". It doesn't get much better than this. Crack open a beer with Brad, sit back, and watch the stars shine. Get them devil women out of yer town. Drive your car faster than you should through a late afternoon rainshower. Get a hangover the next day and try to take your mind off it by sitting out in the sun.

But you won't be able to exploit any of these moments till you buy the Crash Test Dummies' best album.

What are you talking about?!.......2003-04-03

This is an incredible album - great lyrics, excellent guitar breaks, another new Dummies sound - a melancholy 'Southern feel that works great, and is a sharp contrast to the funky hard rock of Give Yourself A Hand. Ellen Reid's harmonies are as beautiful as ever, and hear me now you - BRAD ROBERTS IS STILL AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE CRASH TEST DUMMIES LEAD SINGER. A reviewer 'helpfully pointed out' that CTD had a new lead singer who tried to sound like the old one. Yep, looks like him too. And has the same name! Hey! Wait a second....could it be..? Why not check your cd sleeves before you make absurd claims like that.

Popylupyshoopy.......2002-06-24

This new CTD album, or should I say Brad Roberts album, is decent. Not as bad as the messy and shallow (yet strangely intriguing) Give Yourself a Hand, but nowhere near as rich and emotionally charged as the first 3 CTD albums (all classics, especially A Worm's Life). My problem with the new Dummies image is. . .WHERE ARE ALL THE STORIES??? The earlier albums always contained Brad's quirky tales about household appliances, Biblical figures, garbage, scabs, ducks, pulling teeth, etc. I'm all for groups reinventing themselves, but these songs are just too cynical and commonplace to warrant multiple listenings.

Credible Metalcore? What is This, 1999?.......2007-06-30

Sounding like what 'Bless the Martyr and Kiss the Child' would have if Stephen O'Mally was twisting the knobs (well, minus a good bit of the breakdowns) or perhaps if Botch came from the swamps of Louisiana, 'I Don't Care Where I Go When I Die' is as dense and noncommercial as metalcore gets. Though they have a bit in common with the rest of the Blackmarket Activities roster (Animosity, Ed Gein, From a Second Story Window) - the heavier, more intelligent riffs, not-too-clean-but-just-right production, and vocals that have a tendency to dabble in the more death realm - Gaza stands quite far above their aforementioned - if not utterly mediocre - peers. Perhaps it is the more sludge oriented sound complimented by the scattered Kurt Ballou-esque progressive parts (see the end of "Hospital Fat Bags"), maybe it's the Hydra Head circa 2001 guitar sound? The idea of keeping the sounds a bit more on the midpaced side, not relying on all out speed every moment to keep things interesting (not at all sure why the term "grindcore" is thrown around so much, this record has absolutely nothing to do with the genre)? It could even be the fact that the vocals are strongly reminiscent of, ex-Norma Jean / current The Chariot frontman, Josh Scogin at his strongest. Whatever the reason, this is one of those records that should appeal to both the record buying masses as well as the jaded metalhead who would like something a tad different. At the very least, it beats the living hell out of recent releases by Job for a Cowboy, Ion Dissonace, and their ilk. A worthy listen.

wow.......2007-05-14

hands down, the best band i've listened to this year. sludge/technical/grind/doom. often a wall of noise that punches you right in the gut from the hellish title track, I Don't Care Where I Go When I Die, to the crushing finish of Hospital Fat Bags, and the piercing emotion that explodes from tracks such as Slutmaker. It's absolutely the best. on top of that the layout of the booklet is looks like one of lucifer's art projects. Brutal band, check 'em out. SEE THEM LIVE.

My plants are dying...my cat is trying to eat my soul .......2007-05-08

A goat on the cover. I'm sold. I'm so easy. But this is not. Gaza is Dis-ease music. A+ for the flippant album title, especially considering they are from Utah. (Which I shall steer clear of, thanks Gaza!) The early eighteenth century term "Diabolus in Musica" (the devil in music) certainly lends credence to the whole abominable atmosphere of this ugly chunk of eeeeevil. Exploding in your ears at the outset in bursts of serrated tritones and detuned disharmony, this is probably the most genuinely frightening album I have heard since Today is The Day released Sadness Will Prevail. Death metal is probably a little too timid of an identifier for this band. I usually joke around with playing death metal or what scream you around my very sensitive and lady-like woman, but I know better with this album.

This music nourishes nightmares. Even the breakdowns sound like the harbingers of Gog and Magog; the two guitarists torturing ill shrieks from callously tapped fingers and twisted chords, the drummer trying to beat his kit into pulp, and the screamer making his point clear, even if most of it is incomprehensible, except for the track "Gristle" a stop start roaring.."Pray it's malignant!" God I hope not! Its all very unnatural and hopeless. The only times of respite away from the the ear clawing screams of anguish, or the monstrously dissonant dual guitar scraping and slashing is when they slow down for a doom crawl, not really bringing the succor. I Don't Care Where I Go When I Die is overwhelming to say the least, and if you haven't been immersed in grind and filth for years, this is probably about as appealing as drinking the oily after-film from the bottom of a bucket of fish guts.

That said, this is for those who find that very thing delicious. The musicianship of all players is refreshing in their quest to find new permutations of bad and worse. The drummer thrashes his kit in constructing and deconstring cascades, off-timing his snares to create a jarring effect that settles in nicely with the rest of the cacaphony. Being that I am a guitarist, it is rather exciting to hear two guitarist make excellent use of a variety of intermediate to expert techniques, especially their multiple fingered chord tapping, and slides of evil and misdirection. As far as the vocalist is concerned, he needs to take a step back and really ask himself, is it that bad? I mean it must be. There is nothing in this record that would give you a conclusion otherwise. his lyrics are funny and disturbing, evoking images of rot and licentiousness in a world with no pity and less light. He also aims a few jabs at emo fans and apparently hardcore too. Not sure what its all about, I am out of the loop, but I am sure the kids kow what's what. The bassist is buried a bit in the mix, but maybe because he's tuned to like Z sharp or something.

I am pretty sure there is some riffage that may have been copped from Mr. Austin, but they tune down so low that the transposition renders said theft unrecognizable. And thats ok, because really, there is nothing new under the sun, and I believe it when Gaza proclaims they don't care where they go when they die.

a musician's perspective.......2007-04-12

this is the heaviest thing since Mare, which is quite an accomplishment. they have the same f'ed up melodic sense that makes it intensely emotional. except they grind it. which is awesome. even more awesome is the fact that they occasionally let the melody slowly impale you. (the end of 'hospital fat bags' for example)

there are also a few lyrics the really stand out for me: 'dumber than a bag of hatebreed fans' is pretty great to hear.

the highlight of the album for me, though, is a very satisfying expression of disgust for our "culture" which climaxes with a VERY ironic "seacrest out." i think it's in 'hell crown.' anyway, it's amazing.

IF YOU ARE DISGUSTED BY THIS CULTURE'S BANALITY, HYPOCRISY, AND COMPLACENCY, BUY THIS RECORD. or just do it because it's genuinely, beautifully, creatively heavy.

CRAZY................................2006-10-07

coming from someone who loves grind and extreme music in all forms,
this is by far the best, most brutal, pissed off emotional release I have heard in a long time (since there ep "east"). the vocals are sick the riffs are insane and the experimental element is unreal. and the songs are long also, esp. for a grind album, they average from 4 mins. to over 6 mins long. overall one of the best extreme metal releases of the year.

Baby I Do Care.........2006-08-29

I bought this CD just because of the song "Baby I don't care" which I really like. However, to my surprise other songs in this cds are equally good as well.
Price of this cd is also reasonable. A must have for those who only know Transvision Vamp because of their hit song "Baby I don't care". You'll definitely love all the songs..A recommended buy.

Best of a Good Lot.......2006-04-28

The format may be bubblegum, but the arrangements, musicianship and even the lyrics are generally brilliant. The selection of tracks here is astute, including all the band's biggest hits. But if you liked this collection, you probably should have bought all their regular albums instead, because it's basically all this good. (Or nearly.) Best thing about this Best Of is the price... some of their original albums seem to be insanely expensive.

Wandy Vamp.......2005-10-20

Da li se secate Transvision Vamp? Da li mozete da ih zaboravite?
Tesko! Za samo tri godine postojanja od 1988 do 1991 bend je pruzio i vise nego sto je prosecni slusalac mogao da prihvati. Kompilaciju otvara singl I Want Your Love uz seksipilni glas Wendy James, a onda se hitovi samo redjaju jedan za drugim bez predaha. Velicanstveno.
Pravi dokument da legende ostaju legende.
Idealni poklonici PopArt koji su uspeli za samo tri godine da naprave kult i mit.
Ako ste ih ikada culi, znate vec da im je tesko odoleti.

aesthetic nihilism.......2004-06-16

this music is so vacuous it almost breaks you heart, but it sounds so F-ing good. "baby I dont care" is one of the most nihilistic bubble gum songs of the 1980's.

hey sister moon..........2002-11-20

transvision vamp is a band i remember, but never really heard during their peak. mostly i remember them from reading the british music teen rag smash hits'...american version. after hearing about them on a kylie minogue message board, i decided to give them a shot. i came across this best of release and i must say i was pleasantly surprised.

Another absolutely fabulous listening experience. Ron Raines' voice is truly sensational, and you will be captivated by his renditions.

So in Love With Broadway.......2005-10-12

Ah,yes, Ron Raines expresses his love of Broadway music with a beautiful baritone voice which possesses all of the passion of a great lover! A magnificent performance throughout the CD. A must for every true lover of Broadway music. It rates a Ten Star on a five star scale!!

beautiful album.......2005-04-23

Ron Raines does a fabulous job singing broadway songs. His voice is truly fantastic. He has a perfect voice for broadway songs and ballads. I think the song selection he chose is really wonderful and a great variety from different musicals. His first album was fantastic and so is this one. I'd highly recommend both albums. His voice is truly wonderful and a beautiful experience to listen to.

Ron Raines Continues His Beautiful singing.......2005-04-01

This is the second in Ron Raines series of Broadway Classics. It is just as beautiful as his first one. Close your eyes when you listen to him and you will believe that you are in a theater. You won't be disappointed if you like Broadway! The more I listen to Ron Raines sing, the better I like him. I hope he will make a new CD soon. He sings the songs that men sing in the original Broadway shows. It is great! This singer should be in everyone who likes music's collection

The essence of a great entertainer catpured........2004-05-03

Liberace was a great showman and entertainer. This double CD is the best record of his classic act and demonstrates what Liberace was all about. Although recorded in 1954 the sound quality is fine and many of the elements from that period remained part of Liberace's act over more than 30 years. Interestingly - he was not yet using "I'll Be Seeing You" as his exit music. If there is anything you like about Liberace - get this CD.
NB Amazon (on 2/5/04) was only listing the tracks on the second CD.

Beyond all description..........2006-09-19

As a boy, I heard so many hyperbolic references to the legendary Enrico Caruso that I chose to purchase a remastered copy of his "Greatest Hits" when I first began to acquire recordings as a young man. Soon after, I discovered Pavarotti and my life was changed by his music. Caruso ended up in the Goodwill Store. I am convinced that in 500 years, should the earth cool again and the Muslim hoards abate, the civilized world will still tell tales of the greatest tenor. I have often found myself grumpy when searching for recordings of Pavarotti because of the inconsistent fidelity of the recordings. That search for the definitive Pavarotti recordings, regarding both content and fidelity, has ended with the release of this extraordinary collection. Worth it's weight in gold, the Puccinni Volume (#5) alone is enough to send someone like me into hyperspace. I am astounded by the beauty and power of these performances. I will always remember the day, not long ago, when a NPR commentator glibly mentioned between the weather and the night's playlist the terrible words, "Luciano Pavarotti has announced that he is retiring from Opera." I felt as if something indescribably beautiful was fading from the world. Of course, beauty in all of its earthly forms is fleeting at best, but these discs contain a reflection of it that will surely bolster any soul.

An Absolute Must-Have for Any Pavarotti Fan.......2004-01-09

...and that certainly goes without saying. My one tiny little problem with it is that his recordings of "Santa Lucia" and "Caruso" are not on this incredible box-set. Even though I have those recordings on other CDs, I still think those are very important pieces to include on this set (assuming that this set of Pavi hits would be the only compilation that that any fan of this phenomenal tenor would have). He is probably my biggest idol, and he deserves to have been one of the biggest opera stars in history.

Wonderful!!!!.......2002-11-07

This Pavarotti set; The Pavarotti Edition; is a wonderful collection of Arias and songs that cover Luciano's great career. Pavarotti is THE Voice of the 20th Century and this set does him justice. It includes 10 CDs with over 750 minutes of music; Includes Music from All of His roles; has a beautiful 76 page full color booklet; Has a wonderful write up; and includes a bonus CD of Pavarotti's fist album, a 45, from 1964, which has never been released on CD before this set. Every Song is hear, This SET is a must have for every Pavarotti Fan.

All I wanna say is this single is below par.......2007-03-09

If you ever wondered why this song seems so familiar, you might want to check out John Lennon's "Give Peace a Chance."
Sure, Michael added a tough, driving beat vs. John's guitar strumming and hand clapping, but the song's similarity probably isn't a coincidence.
John: All we are saying, is give peace a chance
Mike: All I wanna say is they don't care about us
You decide. It's by far one of Michael's least imaginative tracks. Sorry all, when you're the King of Pop,
your standards should be higher. In my book, this one doesn't cut it.

This single pisses me off!.......2007-02-10

Why in the hell are Love II Infinity and Track Masters remixes radio edits? I thought the purpose of a Maxi single was for long versions. This single focuses more on the Hip-Hop genre with all the Hip-Hop remixes but those who like club mixes get screwed for their money.

One plus side for this pathetic excuse for a Maxi cd single is that there is the Frankie Knuckles remix for Rock With You in all it's 7:45 of glory! The Hani remix for Earth Song is halved. That sucker clocks in at over 14 minutes long.

Grrrrrrrrr!

Love the samples..........2005-09-27

The samples for this CD is pretty good.. But they should try to get in the middle part of Earth Song. All you could hear was the intro music.. Which takes forever................. -.-

Prefect!.......2004-02-25

Micheal Jackson gives the fans what they really want and that is a slaming singles cd. My favorite tracks are track 1 then Track 2 because it's just a really good ass remix. Track 3 and track 8 track 8 is the earth song and I think that song really is a great song and I am glad he put it on the album but it a remix and that makes it all the better. Thanks Mike!

They Don't Care About Us, But I Care About This Single!.......2003-03-06

Awesome. Purely awesome. This is one of MJ's best songs! It has beautiful beats. It's great!

The remixes range from god-like to average. Not a bad track on here, though. The Dallas Main Mix and the L-to-I's mixes are the best mixes on here, in my opinion. Plus, the additional 2 remixes included (of Rock With You + Earth Song) are remarkable!

A definite must!
