Good Music.......2007-04-24

The vocals on this album are great. I still love all of the songs. "Why you treat me so bad" is a good song- the use of the sample for "I got five on it" by Luniz is why I like that sound.

Good job!

Club Music........2006-07-24

Lots of unremarkable Club music on the album with one very notable exception - Lean on Me. The album is worth buying just for this rendition.

Club Nouveau.......2006-05-12

Lean On Me gets the credit for putting this band upon the map legitimately with previous hits like rumors and their followup being Jealousy. Personally, I prefer Situation #9 as my favorite of the album with Why You Treat Me So Bad a close second.

The only missing for not a perfect 5 star is that only 8 tracks available. No other album comes close to equally their sound at the time of its initial release. Now if only that had made a video....

Life Experiences.......2005-10-30

Life, Love & Pain are the three elements found within this eight song release from Club Nouveau. Produced & written by Jay King, Thomas McElroy & Denzil Foster (two of which contributed to En Vogue's fame) constructed timeless material for any generation to enjoy. "Jealousy" starts off by the rumors being spread and confronting bad talk and lies. Used in a hip-hop / rap sample, "Why You Treat Me So Bad" has the formula of a classic ballad. The remake of the Bill Withers' hit "Lean On Me", the Club made it faster and as stated by the vocals "...we be jammin', we be jammin'..." As another life situation approaches, it seems hard to deal with some and easier with others. "Situation #9" would fall on a scale of 1-10 an eight or nine. Thinking of someone constantly would hence the title, "Heavy On My Mind". The subtle piano and slow drum track created a dark atmosphere for the ballad "Let Me Go" as the woman in the group takes the lead. "Pump It Up (Reprise)" is the instrumental from "Lean On Me" with words and chants to pump the crowd.

Whoa!! This album brings things back.. Past and Present.......2004-12-03

I had forgotten how major this album was in the 80's.. I mean the entire album is relevant to today's current events and that is truly the mark of a great album when it can withstand the test of time. Why you treat me so bad? Heavy on my mind, Situation #9, Jealousy, Let me go.. Unfortunately some songs may hit close to home but hey such is life, love and pain..
