5 out of 5 stars Brilliant.......2003-11-13

Tiffany with Front Line Assembly on 'new years day'. That track is worth the purchase.

4 out of 5 stars Best U2 Tribute CD You Can Buy!!!!.......2003-09-27

If you like U2 and you like techno/punk, this album is for you. It's not a bunch of bands trying to imitate or sound just like the real thing. These artists have taken U2's songs and made them their own. They are all very different from the original, but close enough that you can still sing along. A must have for any serious U2 fan.

3 out of 5 stars Not too bad..........2002-03-01

I bought this because U2 is the best band on the planet ever. Period. And I enjoy hearing how other musicians interpret U2's songs. I gave it a 3 stars simply because they are great songs, but there are some on here that are [not so good]. The band that covers "With or Without You" should be taken... but only after being tortured with their song for a couple of days. Everything else is pretty good. I really enjoy "Numb" -- very [nice]. This is a great addition to the collection of any big U2 fan. If you enjoy tribute albums the same label that put out this album has Bauhaus and New Order tributes too. Both excellent and really live up to being called tributes.

3 out of 5 stars Points for originality.......2001-06-27

This CD would have been worse if the cover bands did nothing with the songs. Most of the songs would have sounded better, but then there would be no reason for this album to exist. It is worth listening to for the new takes on each song. But they are very difficult to listen to, especially for big U2 fans. After a while, though, they become tolerable, and you might even like a couple of the tracks as much or more than U2's versions. For me these are "Numb" and "October." In conclusion, U2 is better at playing their songs than these groups are, but if you are a big U2 fan, you might appreciate the originality of their covers.

1 out of 5 stars Much Worse Than The Real Thing...........2000-10-27

What in the world is going on? I had assumed that "Tribute" usually meant to pay homage to something - to celebrate it and bring to light it's worth. I'm a U2 fanatic, to say the least, and this record is..well, ...embarrasing. You know something's got to be wrong when you see artists like Tiffany and Die Krupps on the same record. Hmmmmm... something just doesn't smell right here.
