5 out of 5 stars good memories for me and fun "new" songs for my children.......2007-06-27

We had ordered this for "The Dukes of Hazzard" theme song for our 4yr old and our whole family has fallen in love with the cd. It makes me want to share some of the old fun and simple shows with my children. I forgot about some of those shows. It brings back good memories for my husband and me and the songs are new and exciting for our children. It's a nice change from children's cd's, but our children still think it's fun. The sound quality is good and the songs included on the cd are a great mix. I would definately recommend this one.

5 out of 5 stars memories.......2007-02-22

5 out of 5 stars TV Theme Songs.......2007-01-13

This is a great CD for people who watch a lot of TV -especially TV LAND and reruns of old shows when shows had actual theme songs. I took the CD to work and everyone loved trying to figure out what show the songs were from.

3 out of 5 stars TV themes.......2006-07-05

Not all what I expected, not all of the tunes are the original recordings you remember as the TV themes.

5 out of 5 stars Deja Vu.......2006-02-17

Listening to these familiar themes as performed by the original artists certainly brings back wonderful memories! I was particularly pleased, not only with the quality of the pieces, but with the actual performances themselves, just as we remembered them!

Long derided by critics as unoriginal and uninspired, Saliva has gained popularity among legions of rock & roll fans eager to celebrate good times with a bottle of domestic beer at their sides and their fists thumping high, high in the air. Blood Stained Love Story seems unlikely to change critical minds--much of the album, including "Ladies and Gentlemen," "Never Gonna Change" and the unimaginatively titled "Twister" comes off like warmed-over '80s hair metal. While it's true that the record features blazing guitar leads and drumming that'll hasten the beats of the average rock-starved heart, it seems unlikely that it--or the band that created it--will make an entry into the pantheon of timeless rock & roll. Thoroughly disposable. --Jedd Beaudoin

Album Description

For gold-selling Memphis turbo-rockers Saliva, the past couple years of their decade-long career have brought an ocean swell of change. One or more members have had children, stopped drinking, ended longterm relationships, gotten married and/or left the group, and each instance has been accompanied by a new sense of clarity.

As a result, Saliva's fifth album Blood Stained Love Story resounds with a previously untapped level of passion, energy, sincerity and diversity, not to mention an undeniable melodicism that will endear the band to anyone that feels any sort of connection between reality and music.

"I think we've all been through a blood stained love story of one type or another," says frontman Josey Scott. "It's kind of a metaphor for how things can be a certain way for so long, and then within a day, they just change and you're on this whole other path."

Blood Stained Love Story is an album of growth, a realization that there are more important things in life than cover stories, photo shoots and big Hollywood parties. But while it may be more mature than Saliva's past efforts, it's no less turbulent.

5 out of 5 stars Recent discover of an instant classic.......2007-05-20

Every once in a while, a band releases a CD that is great from beginning to end. Saliva did that with "Blood Stained Love Story". Although my first experience with this band is on this CD alone, and I have not yet had the pleasure of experiencing their previous works, I am looking forward to enjoying their other efforts as well. I am not one of these people who expect a band to have a similar sound throughout their careers, to me that shows no artistic venture. So, when any band releases a new CD, I enjoy it for the fact that it is a new production. Whatever it is that they (Saliva) have done in the past will be enjoyed as the separate works of art they have produced for my listening pleasure. "Blood Stained Love Story" is a great introduction to Saliva's music for me, and I look forward to their future works as well.

4 out of 5 stars Saliva is back with a decent album.......2007-05-01

Two and a half years since thier last album (and worst) the boys from Memphis are back with a decent album. Better than their "Survival of the Sickest" (3 stars) but not as good as "Every 6 Seconds" or "Back into Your System" (both 4.5 stars). The main reason, to me anyway, is the growing amount of slower songs the groups puts out. Shorter than their other albums with only 10 songs, 1 is almost a classic, 1 I skip, 5 are good and the other 3 are ok. While it's a decent album and a good one for their fans, I prefer their earlier work more.

4 out of 5 stars Saliva flirts with power ballads and mainstream rock.......2007-04-26

THE BAND: Josey Scott (vocals), Wayne Swinny (guitars), Dave Novotny (bass), Paul Crosby (drums & percussion).

THE DISC: (2007) 10 tracks clocking in at approximately 40 minutes. Included with the disc is a 10-page booklet containing song titles/credits, song lyrics, one band photo and thank you's. All songs written by Saliva and producer Bob Marlette. Recorded at The Blue Room in Woodland Hills, CA. Label - Island Records.

COMMENTS: A lot has happened since this band formed in '96 in Memphis, TN. From a nice beginning in the alternative/nu-metal/post-grunge category in the late 90's, to a more calm and slick, well produced rock album in 2007. Saliva no longer belongs with the nu-metal acts like Korn, P.O.D., Mudvayne, Papa Roach, and Linkin Park. Instead, they can join the likes of Nickelback, Creed, Puddle Of Mudd, Buckcherry and Staind. Not necessarily a bad thing - just depends on your individual tastes. Fans that heralded their older albums as their best material will no doubt cry SELL OUT on "Blood Stained Love Story". I, for one, was not a huge fan of their first (major) album, "Every Six Seconds" (2001). I've never been a nu-metal fan, so most of this disc went right by me. "Back Into Your System" (2002) still may be their most complete album to date... and even in '07, it's still my favorite of theirs... balancing post grunge, hard rock, and minimizing the rap (not to mention one of their best songs in their catalog, "Superstar II"). Saliva's 3rd album "Survival Of The Sickest" (2004) is a good album, but the writing was on the wall - and you could see the band was leaning toward mainstream rock - almost no rap or nu-metal feel, and the emergence of the rock power ballad(s). And that brings us to "Blood Stained Love Story". Two immediate hits with "Ladies And Gentleman (reaching #1 on the US Mainstream Rock chart) and "Broken Sunday" (reaching #34). To be honest, when I heard first heard "Ladies And Gentlemen", it really caught my attention because I thought it was a new song from Doug Pinnick and King's X. Both these songs are worthy of being overplayed - wonderful melodies and crunchy guitars. I predict the next hit might well be the first ballad on the album, "Never Gonna Change". Other highlights include the hard rocking "King Of The Stereo", the mid tempo rocker "One More Chance", and the heaviest tune on the disc, "Black Sheep". Perhaps a few too many rock ballads here ("Going Under", "Starting Over" and "Here With You" to name a few more), but over all a very listenable album. This is the 1st Saliva album where I don't find myself skipping tracks. Side note: I never really gave Saliva much credit in the beginning. But, hearing their music on several Playstation-2 games, on ESPN Sportscenter, several movie soundtracks (Spiderman, Daredevil, Fast & Furious, Talladega Nights, etc), having the song "Ladies And Gentleman" used for several professional sports team pregame warm-ups, and recently opening for Aerosmith and Kiss - I'm convinced Saliva has made a name for themselves [...]. Good album, though not what I was expecting - in a good way (4+ stars).

3 out of 5 stars A Good Album.......But Could Be A lot Better!!!!.......2007-04-11

I will admit I've been a Saliva fan since "Every Six Seconds" first came out, But I've also wondered why they can't seem to make another record as good as that one. As good as 2002's "Back Into Your System" was it never came close, in fact it included the first of their songs that I got very tired of hearing (Always) and the second (Rest In Pieces)...Even though they are both great songs. Fast forward to 2004 and we got "Survival Of The Sickest" an album that was a step forward, but still not great. It had kind of a cool southern rock feel to it at times. Which isn't a bad thing, but it still didn't feel like a genuine Saliva record to me.

So, When I first heard that "Blood Stained Love Story" was coming out in January, I got really excited. I figured maybe this was what I had been waiting for, a return to form. However, when I heard the album I was once again disapointed. It starts out okay....with the first single "Ladies And Gentleman" and "Broken Sunday"....Then it takes a wierd turn downward with "Never Gonna Change" which sounds like it could have easily been done by Clay Aiken or any of the other American Idol contestants. It's a slow song that sounds like a drum machine behind it, instead of Paul Crosby. But, I made myself listen further and It improves slightly with "King Of The Stereo" perhaps the only song that sounds like a saliva song on the whole disc. "One More Chance" and "Going Under" are both pretty descent songs, but when I listened to "Twister" I remember thinking, What the hell happened? It has to be the worst track on here, it's a very experimental song that I have yet to explain. It is however the records closer that is the most impressive, "Here With You" could very well be the nicest, most heart-felt thing this band has written. In one part he sings "I will come to you in a dream my friend, To love you when I'm gone". Overall this album is okay....But not great. This band could have done a whole lot better and I'm still hoping that the next album will be. On average, I wouldn't recommend this whole album to anyone, just the last song. If you want to hear Saliva at their best...I recommend the debut album, with that one you can't go wrong.

2 out of 5 stars Copycats should be their name.......2007-04-07

Every song on this CD sounds as though these guys sat down and listened to other bands and then tweeked the tune a little. The second song on the CD sounds like Animals from Nickelback. If you know who Galactic Cowboys are then you'll recognize Ladies And Gentlemen etc... The best song might be Blacksheep but every song on here got copyed from someone.

    A string quartet rendering of "A Love Supreme"? Even as John Coltrane's beloved work gets revived in various formats--Branford Marsalis performed and recorded with his quartet, Wynton Marsalis with the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra, and singer Kurt Elling set a section of it to words--it may seem a stretch as a classical crossover. But unlike the Kronos Quartet, which came a cropper with its unswinging treatments of Bill Evans and Thelonious Monk, the Turtle Island Quartet is steeped in a jazz sensibility. While the enveloping spiritual intensity of "A Love Supreme" may elude it, the San Francisco-based group grabs the listener with its dark undertones, probing lines, rough hewn textures and airy counter melodies. Of the other Coltrane classics included on the CD, the ballad "Naima" stands out with its gorgeous blend of tones and colors and "Countdown" is given a brisk, percussive workout. Jazz fans will find new pathways into "A Love Supreme" while the classical set will find a gateway to one of jazz's enduring achievements. --Lloyd Sachs

    5 out of 5 stars Gems between the much-played hits.......2007-01-06

    Let me preface by saying that I rate according to how satisfied I have been since discovering or re-discovering music that I buy, or, know enough to have a decent opinion from earlier experience with it. If you think you MAY like a band or cd, gotten onto Amazon (which is primo) and listened to the samples for the cd, then you know pretty much what you're in for. Reviews help alot, though. But, reviewers who blast a cd or band for personal, almost political reasons don't help those of us debating to buy based on what we like to hear. Just had to get that out to let you know I'm sincere when I say... this cd is full of really great Scorpions songs. Really great songs period. Sure, many were played over and over on radio, but for good reason. I love the Scorp's, and I appreciate "Big City Nights" as much as anyone, but I've heard it a million times. It's the gems in between that seal the deal on this one. "Coming Home" for instance. Song samples do this one no justice because of how it cuts loose later. "Same Thrill", "As Soon as the Good Times Roll", and the timeless anti-war "Crossfire" are really, really good. I saw these guys 3 times back in the 80' in Chicago. Fun, energetic, loud, powerful tunes; a great stage show every time. The rest of their earlier stuff is exceptional as well. This one, "Animal Magnetism", and "Lovedrive" are essential for those of us who like, or love, the Scorpions.

    5 out of 5 stars Their Biggest Sting.......2006-12-22

    George Orwell was wrong. 1984 was the year of the Scorpion. The German quintet exploded into superstardom with the release of "Love At First Sting". The album featured three songs that made the Billboard Top 100, and the album itself peaked at number 6 on the Billboard album chart. The phenomenal success of the album sparked an 18-month world tour, which then fueled their second live recording, `World Wide Live'. A small aside: in the summer of 1984, as a 23 year-old music industry professional I had the good fortune to gain access to the Scorpions' sound check in Winnipeg, Canada, where I stood next to the mixing console, shoulder to shoulder with then little-known rock icons John Bongiovi and Richard Sambora, enjoying a fantastic half-hour experience.

    There isn't a bad track on this album. From the pure metal of "Coming Home" to the staccato drumbeat in the anti-war "Crossfire", this album has all the melody, metal, and meat that Scorpions fans have come to expect. There is a reason that this was their greatest commercial success - it's a great album, not just as a period piece, but as a wonderful piece of work that has ably stood the test of time.

    A small piece of trivia: although Francis Buchholtz is credited for playing on the album, and in fact toured with the band following the album's release, and is in the cover photo, it was Dio bassist Jimmy Bain who did the bass parts while recording the album.

    2 out of 5 stars Good Music, Bad Print.......2006-11-07

    I am an old Scorpions fan, and always considered "Love At Firts Sting" one of their best albums of latter era. Actually, it's their last album with some original ideas, just like "Flick Of The Switch" was for AC/DC.

    I purchased this album when I started replacing my dust gathering collection of tape records made in 80's and early 90's, finally having decided to get some quality sound of my old idols. How great was my disappointment wheh I have heard this CD! The quality is quite similair to what I had on my old tape - low record level, high frequencies are not audible. In short - you've got nothing of Mattias Jabs and Rudy Schenker guitars, quite a little of Klaus Meine voice, which was good back then.

    I've heard Scorpions live this summer on private concert in Moscow: they performed mostly the songs from this album, and even given all those years passed, they sounded better.

    5 out of 5 stars And I thought they couldn't top Blackout.......2006-07-06

    Well... they did. I read somewhere that the Scorps were in the Glam Metal genre. That's ridiculous. They're straight up hard rock. If you're not familiar with Rudolf Schenker's brother Michael, you must check out UFO. Why they aren't more popular, I'll never know. If you're looking for a guitar hero, check out Michael Schenker's guitarwork on the live version of Rock Bottom.

    I bought this album in 1992, freshman year in college. I was blown away by the force and depth of the music. 15 years later, unlike so much other music from my teens, this album still rocks. RIP Andrew Wood. You gave the world your gift and then you were consumed by it.

    5 out of 5 stars Unexpected........2006-12-14

    When I bought this album I was a huge Pearl Jam, and had heard of Mother Love Bone in the past and knew a very little about them. Knowing they were the precursor to groups like Soundgarden and Pearl Jam, I bought it ona whim. I was pleasantly suprised to find something that sounded completely different than what I expected. With Andrew Wood's amazing glam rock vocals, Gossard and Ament's free range song writing, and an altogether kick in the balls sound, it's worth however much you're going to spend.

    5 out of 5 stars Mother Love Bone.......2006-11-10

    Andrew Woods was a brilliant pianist and awesome singer. Mostly 80's sounding "Hair Band", which is excellent. Two songs off the chain; are, "Man of Golden Words", and "Chloe Dancer/Crown of Thorns". Overall; this is an excellent CD with a very distinct sound. One of a kind.

    Although I still have a greater love of things later (Pearl Jam), MLB are the clear inspiration. Andrew's lyrics coupled with Stone's riffs and Jeff's bass are what you can only describe as beautiful melodic rock.
    If you love Jeff Buckley's sense of melody / ultimate beauty, and Freddie's sense of dash then you will love this. I will always state that I love listening to PJ/Nirvana/Reef/Live/Just Ginger/RHCP/Billy Joel/Radiohead more, but MLB will always somehow find its way to the top of my playlist through sheer quality and beauty of music.
    Make no mistake, Andy Wood could have made MLB the Led Zep of our time. Awesome, what a boy: like Jeff and Kurt, let us just be thankful for what there was from him.

    Amazon.com essential recording

    After fumbling around with producer-from-hell Steve Albini on Rid of Me (1993) and signing with U2 manager Paul McGuinness, Polly Jean Harvey is ready to live up to her lethal early promise at last. With its growling bass tones, "Meet Ze Monsta" sets the stage early on as Harvey explores her feminine psyche with an intensity and raw power unheard since Patti Smith's heyday. Unlike the terminally inconsistent Smith, however, Harvey plots a brilliant course through slippery laments ("Working for the Man"), corrosive testifying ("Long Snake Moan"), and fuzz-toned menace ("Down by the Water"). Skeptics who think Harvey can't outgrow her art-punk base are advised to cue up the flamenco-inflected, string-caressed "Send His Love to Me." --Jeff Bateman

    5 out of 5 stars Perfection........2007-05-17

    By far this is my favorite album of all time. It contains all of the elements I love in music: gut wrenching blues, edgy guitars, beautiful lyrics, raw passion, a conceptual idea, and PJ Harvey. It is both dramatic and sleek at the same time - to me it is produced to perfection. All of the songs fit perfectly together to aid in the design. PJ's performace is simply astounding: a force. Like any gifted artist, she has a clear, unabashed viewpoint. I can see how some may be thrown off by the album; it may not be easy to stomach - especially with today's trend in music. But for me, I was instantly and utterly in love. Perhaps you either love it or hate it (I regard this as a compliment!). But I think everyone should give it a listen.

    4 out of 5 stars Something For Anyone to Love.......2006-11-04

    The Amazon clips here do not do this album justice. For years, I rejected the thought of buying this album because the parts of the songs I heard here failed to interest me. Then one day, I heard "Down By The Water" on the radio, and I knew I just had to try it. None of the other songs, much to my disappointment, were much like "Down By The Water," but most (I don't care for the strident "Send His Love To Me" or the prosaic "C'Mon Billy") were charming in different ways. "To Bring You My Love" is a bluesy track that sounds like what Fiona Apple was going for on her second album, "Meet Ze Monsta" sounds at once tough and bouncy, "Teclo" is haunting and lovely, and "The Dancer" is just plain fascination with its flamenco touches. If any of this sounds appealing, you should buy this before "good sense" changes your mind...

    5 out of 5 stars A dark and ambient masterpiece.......2006-05-29

    TO BRING YOU MY LOVE was PJ Harvey's third release and honestly I didn't know what to make of the album at first. I had heard that the band had split up and she was going it alone, with help from producer Flood (!). In a way I was prepared for a different sounding PJ Harvey but looking back I guess I had no idea HOW different. I had just come off quite a high with her first two albums, the excellent RID OF ME and the beautiful debut DRY. When I first caught sight of the cover I thought, "Waaahhh!" It looks like our dear lil Polly is all growns up, and quite the force to be reckoned with, fierce in that red dress.

    Gone are the days of the raw Albini produced sounds, this album has got a major blues vibe to it. I had heard the single "Down by the Water" and seen the video but yet I still wasn't prepared for this record. I wasn't prepared to fall in love with another PJ album, especially one that's such a departure from her beloved earlier works. But of course I did fall in love again and I think this album is her strongest work to date, both in songwriting and in use of instruments. Polly explores a darker range of topics with her lyrics this time around, especially in reference of a religious nature. Plenty of guitar, lush organs and standout vocals make for this dark, dense record. The ten tracks will take you on an intense musical journey and stretch your imagination, leaving you in awe of the complex yet spare sounds and its brutal melodrama will bring you to your knees.

    We start off with the title track, "To Bring You My Love." This song to me is the only song reminisce of ROM on the record. It's a bit raw but in a moody kind of way. As soon as you hear Polly's voice you'll immediately sense this is a powerful song. What I love throughout this record is the usage of her vocals, clear and urgent, Polly's singing is impeccable.

    "Meet Ze Monsta" is a crazy restless song. It's all over the place, I imagine a very strong woman trying to fight a "big black monsoon" but of course she loses and eventually gives in to suicide to "meet ze monstra." Over a quarrel with her lover. Alls fair in love and war.

    "Working For The Man" is a strange, strange song. In a good way. It is very sinister, PJ's somber vocals very effective in lending to the eerie effect of the song. I think this song is about a psychotic serial killer who preys on women and insists he's doing well because he's "working for the man." You know, HIM.

    "C'mon Billy" is bluesy folk rock at its best. I love the acoustic guitar, the emotion the strings bring out of me and the desperate yearning of PJ's voice here. A very heartfelt plea from a very desperate woman for the father of her son to return and lay with her on golden cornfields for days on end.

    "Teclo" is stranger still. I read in a magazine that PJ said Teclo is someone's name. I would've never guessed. Hearing this song makes me conjure images of angels, halos and God. I dunno why.

    "Long Snake Moan" is awesome! I swear this song helps me curb my road rage. I shout along to the lyrics and instantly feel better, it's like a stress reliever of a song. This song makes me feel powerful and important because I can work voodoo and make mere mortals and even "God above, All drunk on my love..."

    "Down By The Water" is the single off the album and one that actually did well on the charts, I think. It's a very catchy song, with the heavy steady keyboards, playful bells and the malevolent chorus, "Little fish, big fish swimming in the water/Come back here man gimme my daughter."

    My favorite song on this album has got to be the very dark, "I Think I'm A Mother." Reason being, well, frankly I just don't understand the freakin' song and I long to find out! I'm fascinated with this song, from the slow opening of the guitar and the building of the drums to the nonchalant-ness of her voice as she sings something about wanting to have an abortion because she despises the mother-in-law. Wait, what?! I know, hence the fascination.

    "Send His Love To Me" is very similar to "C'mon Billy" in that it's very folksy. A very heartfelt, beautiful song.

    "The Dancer" is without a doubt the most passionate song I've ever heard. I dare anyone to come up with a more beautiful, soulful song! The swaying of the strings, the gut-wrenching
    wails of her voice and the killer lyrics just leaves me begging for more:

    He came riding fast like a phoenix side a fire flame
    He came dressed in black with a cross bearing my name
    He came bathed in light and the splendor and glory
    I can't believe what the Lord has finally sent me
    He said "Dance for me, fanciulla gentil"
    He said "Laugh for awhile, I can make your heart feel"
    He said "Fly with me, touch the face of the true God"
    And then he cried with joy at the depth of my love...

    Oh Lord, how that song kills me. And what a lovely way to end an epic of an album. At first I wasn't sure how to feel about the album but a listen is all it took for me to be very impressed indeed. 5 stars all the way.

    3 out of 5 stars "Let me ride on his grace for awhile...".......2006-05-03

    PJ Harvey's third release, To Bring you My Love is a middle of the road album for me. It's more produced, which is fine by me, never really cared either way, more romantic, and her voice is at its strongest here but I don't love all the tracks. Standout tracks include: To bring you my love, Come on Billy, Teclo, The Dancer, Down by the Water, and the gorgeous Send his Love to Me. The rest of the tracks are weird and plain. PJ is one skinny woman, does she ever eat? I prefer Dry, Is this Desire?, and Stories from the city.... better. This album is considered her masterpiece and it's good, but it's not great.

    3 out of 5 stars Haunting Femininity.......2006-04-18

    3 1/2 stars

    About half of these songs truly carve out a niche in your head with their immersive, overpowering qualities, while the other half seems to sort of cruise on autopilot..All in all, this is considered by many Polly Jean's seminal work, and it is for good reason..Songs like To Bring You My Love, Teclo, and The Dancer show Harvey at her most vulnerable, and most beautiful, qualities that this woman brings to the table better then most of her peers ever could.

    4 out of 5 stars EZ listening from EJ.......2007-07-04

    Calling this "Love Songs" is something of a misnomer. I would be hard pressed to call "Daniel" or "Candle In The Wind" love songs as much as they are romantic ballads. But as a collection of Adult Contemporary hits from Elton John, this is a good greatest hits. Elton and Bernie Taupin were always masters of popcraft, and when they took aim at a ballad, they were often the best of their time.

    "Love Songs," released by MCA just before Elton switched labels to Island Records, covers material from 1970 ("Your Song") to 1985 ("Blessed"). There were two so-so new songs, and also the hits from "The Lion King." (Saving you from buying the lackluster soundtrack.) What "Love Songs" doesn't do is present the full spectrum of Elton; instead of "Saturday Night's Alright For Fighting," you get "Blue Eyes." If all you want is Elton's pleasantries, this will do fine. Otherwise, I'd suggest "Rocket Man: Number Ones," "Elton John - Greatest Hits 1970-2002" or even "To Be Continued...."

    5 out of 5 stars So much more than mindless muzak--BRAVO, ELTON JOHN !!!.......2007-06-04

    This CD of just a few of Elton John's love ballads gives us a collection of some of the very best love songs of all time. When Elton sings these songs, you listen--and you listen closely, too, because only Elton could deliver these rich and stunning numbers with a flair all his own.

    The CD track set begins with "Can You Feel The Love Tonight;" this ballad is from the soundtrack to the movie The Lion King. Elton's voice is rich, warm and full of masculine sensitivity. Elton's piano playing leaves nothing to be desired; and the lush musical arrangement features a sublime backup chorus, too. "The One" celebrates the joy Elton feels when he has found the perfect lover for him; again the musical arrangement glistens like gold. The overall effect of both "Can You Feel The Love Tonight" and "The One" produces a heavenly effect that I rarely enjoy from any singer. Great!

    Then there's the classic Elton John ballad, "Daniel." "Daniel" gives Elton the opportunity to sing about the sadness he feels when his man has left him. The percussion enhances the beauty of this number; and Elton's voice is in top form here as it is throughout the CD. "Someone Saved My Life Tonight" changes gears as Elton now sings about how relieved he feels to realize--before it's too late--that his love affair will never bring him true happiness. The lyrics reflect great judgment and Elton's voice exudes a type of sensitivity that showcases his remarkable talent.

    "Your Song" is probably my favorite love ballad on his CD; the straightforward lyrics require no interpretation and Elton sings this straight from the bottom of his heart. The musical arrangement stuns you with its beauty; and the piano and strings are well used in the musical arrangement. "Your Song" always moves me deeply.

    Other golden nuggets on this album include the marvelous live duet Elton does with George Michael entitled "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me" and the sublime "Blue Eyes" which deals with the sadness Elton's woman feels when he needs to go away from her for a while. "Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word" explores the heartbreak Elton feels as he realizes a love he wants so badly will never exist. There is a live recording of "Candle In The Wind," too; this song deals with misunderstanding other people using Marilyn Monroe as an example. Excellent!

    "You Can Make History (Young Again)" stuns me with its beauty; and the CD ends fittingly with "Circle Of Life" from the movie entitled The Lion King. "Circle Of Life" provides the album with an especially strong ending.

    The liner notes give you the lyrics and the song credits; and the cover picture of Elton is excellent, too.

    Elton John possesses the ability to take words and music, fuse them together, give them a special injection of passion as only he can and finally perform these ballads with great panache and pure elegance. Elton blesses us with his artistry; and I can only hope that if we're lucky Elton will continue to perform for many years to come.

    A nice collection of Elton John's love songs. Great for Valentines Day or a nice gift fo your sweetheart.

    4 out of 5 stars Fans can never be objective..........2006-05-06

    From the OBJECTIVE reviewer...a great overview it isn't, but as a concept album it is great...plus both of the new songs are really good especially "You Can Make History" and for those two reasons worth the 4 stars.

    4 out of 5 stars I really like this CD but..........2005-12-19

    I bought this CD as a Valentine's Day gift for my wife (another reviewer also mentions that as a good idea). It is a great collection of Elton John material that we both really enjoy, BUT as some other reviewers have pointed out, it is not completely filled with love songs. I would have left off "Circle of Life" (although I like the song) in favor of "I Guess That's Why They Call It the Blues." Also, I didn't realize when I bought it that the CD includes the live George Michael version of "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me" instead of Elton's original studio version, which I would have preferred. As a result, I find myself almost always skipping this track.

    If you need a moment to remember the slower times, a time when love songs held a hint of mystery and kept you coming back for more. If you're looking to put your feet up and just relax into some great memories or create new ones. This CD will definitely do it all for you, especially if you are a fan of Barry White and the Love Unlimited Orchestra. What a masterful mix of sounds.

    If you're trying to put a little fire in your relationship and need to set a mood with good music, here's the music to play.

    IT'S A SHAME THAT THIS GIRL GROUP NEVER RECEIVED THE RECOGNITION THEY VERY WELL DESERVED AND THAT THEY NEVER MADE IT TO THE TOP OF THE CHARTS.
    THESE THREE WOMEN ARE GLAMOROUS, STUNNING, AND HAVE THE VOICES AND TALENT THAT COULD KNOCK A SKYSCRAPER DOWN. THIS CD IS AN AWESOME ONE AND ALL THE TRACKS ARE GOOD FROM START TO END. IN MY OPINION, IT'S WORTH OWNING. MY PERSONAL FAVORITE TRACK IS NUMBER 3. I CAN HEAR IT OVER AND OVER AND NEVER GET TIRED OF IT. I MAKE A POINT TO LISTEN TO IT EVERYDAY.

    5 out of 5 stars The Supremes of the 70's!!.......2005-06-22

    The first minute and five seconds of the opening cut, "Under The Influence of Love" sound like a great lost Blaxploitation soundtrack cut. It's all high hat cymbals and wah-wah guitar and swelling strings. Then, on come three female singers with huge afros and tight,perfect harmony, sounding like a more soulful version of The Supremes. Brilliant, luscious vocals and a girl group groove straight out of Phil Spector guides you to heaven on "It May Be Winter Outside, But In My Heart It's Spring". Barry White wrote or co-wrote and produced everything on here and even married one of the girls(Glodean). His influence is writ large upon the production, but the girls have their own musical persona. "I Belong To You" was their big R&B number one and "Walking In The Rain With The One I Love" is a gorgeous rewrite of The Ronettes "Walking In The Rain", complete with rain effects and a phone call from Barry in full basso profundo lover man mode. This is sweet, sensual music that sounds better than ever and there are 17 very strong hits on here.

    Of all the 70s great girl groups around at the time (First Choice, Three Degrees, Sister Sledge) this one is my favorite. I could listen to "Under The Influence Of...Love Unlimited" all day. Which brings up a point, why is it out of print? Anyway, powerful vocals by Glodean and the Girls...

    What is Young Love?

    "Los Angeles good times tequila rock bands Austin day cruiser van smoke machines tour trafalgar Hollywood oakwoods why are dudes wearing makeup everyone knows everyone Brooklyn night clubs whiskey white suits bright lights Miami island cutting rugs London finishing the record"

    "That's the last two or three years of my life, with a bit of childhood thrown in," says Dan Keyes, frontman and musical tour de force behind Young Love. Not only does that word collage work as a history of the group, but it also serves as a good primer on the band's sound, which can only be described as "now, but different."

    Hi! I''m from spain, and I have met Young love because my brother like this tipe of music. the first song that i hear from Young love was Too young too fight it, i love this hit!! but discotech is better. well, bye and sorry, my english is too bad!! LorENa

    4 out of 5 stars disliked it at first...and then LOVED it .......2007-03-29

    "Discotech" and "Find a New Way", the more danceable songs, were my favorites. My second favorites were "Closer to You", "Close you eyes" and some other more acoustically clean songs. Mr. Keyes does his best work on the acoustic numbers. However, songs like "Take it or Leave it" and "Tell Me", had to grow on me (although, the song "Give Up" still feels like overkill). This album is great, considering that many genres ( r&b, alternative, dance/electronica, indie...) are covered on it--which is pretty impressive. If you want something that is a little bit of everything, Too Young to Fight It is your best bet.

    5 out of 5 stars incredible!!!!!!!!!.......2007-03-17

    you know i try to find a new band to add to my list once a year and the beginning of this year sucked but then about three weeks ago i was browsing new releases and i saw young love and i thought what is this. and then i sampled it and 30 minutes later i owned it. i completly love this band the whole vibe of the music is unlike anything ive heard in a while. they are by far the best ive heard this year. i love the song "too young to fight it" it has such an upbeat feel i just gotta dance to it and i must say the lyrics rock ! so if you dont by any other cd buy this one its completly worth the money.

    5 out of 5 stars Great Dance Album.......2007-03-02

    I first heard of Young Love from the MTV show Dancelife and like the opening song. When I saw it in the music store I took a risk and bought it. I am so glad I did because its truly amazing. Its has songs that you can really dance to. What makes this CD different from others is that the lyrics are great and gives the songs a back bone. If you want a great dance album look no further. YOUNG LOVE-TOO YOUNG TO FIGHT IT IS A MUST HAVE.

    The last album with the original lineup (unless you count the 1998 reunion Psycho Circus), Love Gun contains a few missteps (such as the reworking of the classic "Then He Kissed Me") but is mostly packed to the gills with the good, fun, trashy rock & roll that made Kiss legendary. One frequently overlooked high point is the song "Almost Human," which strikes a positively creepy note. Then there's Ace Frehley's first stint on lead vocals with "Shock Me," the un-PC but affectionate "Plaster Caster," and the well-known title track. True, there's no equivalent to "Rock & Roll All Night" (the obvious attempt falls flat), but that doesn't stop this from being not only classic Kiss, but classic 1970s rock. -- Genevieve Williams

    5 out of 5 stars More of KISS in their Prime!!!.......2007-05-30

    Like a sister to "Rock and Roll Over" - "Love Gun" offers more blistering live in the studio rock. To me, the highlight here has to be "Shock Me" and not just because it's the first song Ace sings, but because of that SOLO! It's one of his best solos ever! But "Love Gun" "Christine Sixteen" "Got Love for Sale" and "I Stole Your Love" are all Kiss classics! One of Peter's best songs, "Hooligan" - which is even better live is found here. This album really showcases each of the four members very well. I know they started really battling each other at this point, but the music didn't suffer (yet). The only other thing I have to say is why oh why have they never played "Almost Human" live? That songs absolutley rips!!!

    5 out of 5 stars it's kiss.......2006-10-24

    Kiss have an album with 3 good songs and the rest filler?No way !your kidding ? Alive and Alive II albums were so cool because you could hear all the explosions of the pyrotechniques,The live albums should have come with a pack of firecrackers .It probably did well for the retail sales of firecrackers .i wonder if there ever were kiss firecrackers . if not i bet they tried.

    3 out of 5 stars End of an era.......2006-09-14

    While I can appreciate Kiss's return to their hard rock roots, this is not a steady effort. Rock N Roll Over, which preceded this album, is far superior. Kiss made the decision to return to making basic hard rock music in 1976 after the dissapointing and confusing "Destroyer". "Rock N Roll Over" was a success. It had the quality songs similar to the first three albums but it had better production quality. Kiss tried to continue the formula with Love Gun but with a few notable exceptions, the songs just weren't there.

    3 out of 5 stars The Kiss Brand Grows Stale.......2006-08-07

    It's hard to believe almost thirty years has passed since "Love Gun" was released. Thirty years! This is when Kiss was at its pinnacle of popularity. They'd come close, but never again would they scale the heights of success they had achieved at this point.

    This has never been one of my favorite Kiss CDs, although it is notable for two reasons. First, it was Ace Frehley's lead vocal debut ("Shock Me"), and the last album in which the four members directly participated. And it was when Kiss was arguably at the peak of their popularity.

    There are some true gems here ("Christeen Sixteen," "Plaster Caster," and "I Stole Your Love"), but the dull and insipid stuff tends to dominate ("And Then She Kissed Me"?). I even found the song "Love Gun" to be a bit of a drag. And being eight years-old at he time of it's release, Paul Stanley's subtlety wasn't lost on me.

    So what did I find to be the problem with this album? It seemed like filler to me. And from what I've read, the band had burned out to the point where tensions ran high between members, and they almost called it quits. If not for the solo album idea, this might have been their last album.

    "Christeen Sixteeen" is one of my all time Kiss favorites. And while the lyrics to "Plaster Caster" are definitely goofy, the sound still sounds damn good after all these years! "I Stole Your Love" is not one of their better songs, but in relation to the other songs on the album, it's pretty good. I agree with a previous reviewer in that the live version is much better.

    Has age dulled my love for this album? Perhaps. It definitely was a step backwards form its predecessors -- "Destroyer" and "Rock and Roll Over." It just sounds lazy. "Tomorrow and Tonight" is second rate at best, while "And Then She Kissed Me" seems odd and out of place. It's the Kiss brand name that saves this album. Had another band released this, it probably would have been forgotten.

    Looking for a place to start with Kiss? This wouldn't be the right album to begin your journey. I'd recommend "Destroyer" or "Rock and Roll Over." Better yet, one of the countless greatest hits collections to give you a well rounded picture. But as far as individual albums go -- this one doens't rank very high with me.

    3 out of 5 stars filler.......2006-07-03

    This album is ok, but was filled with filler material such as Then she...., Hooligan, Got love for sale and tomorrow and tonight. Thats 40% filler. That along with really weak production (probably rushed at the time) equalls 60% ok review.. aka 3 stars... Not one of their better albums.
