WOW !! This CD amazes me !! I LOVE IT !!! It's a must have for everyone who likes eurodance !! NO ONE will regret it. Fun Factory is definately one of the best eurodance bands ! Why not review everything and rate it ?

1. Celebration : A euro-reggae track, quite catchy, enjoyable and danceable. (3.5/5)
2. Don't Go Away : Similar to the previous track. I also can say that it's even better !! You'll like it, sure. (4/5)
3. Doh Wah Diddy : A great cover !!! A dance song. I haven't listened to the original, but I really enjoy this cover !! Similar to "Shimmy Shake" by 740 Boyz, I don't know how to call this but I like it very much ! (4.5/5)
4. I Wanna Be With U : Similar to "Don't Go Away" and "Celebration". Same thing : catchy euro-reggae track. (4/5)
5. I Love You : A ballad. This word means everything : horrible, slow, boring. Should never have been on this CD, and should never have been released as a single. (0/5)
6. Pain : After a horrible track, here comes a GREAT track !! Fast dance song, very good melody. Great, I LOVE IT ! (5/5)
7. Close To You : Without a doubt THE BEST TRACK ON THIS CD !!! Another great dance song, maybe you know it. This is the Trouble Mix, which is MUCH MUCH better than the radio mix. I LOVE IT TOO ! (5+/5)
8. Oh Yeah Yeah : This is maybe euro-reggae, but it has a dance beat. It's the best euro-reggae track on this CD. Very good !! (4.5/5)
9. Prove Your Love : GREAT !!! Another great dance song by this band. I LOVE IT, it's fast, amazing, what more can I say ? (5/5)
10. Love Of My Life : Nice euro-reggae track. Similar to "Don't Go Away", you'll like it if you like the other euro-reggae tracks on this CD. (4/5)
11. Groove Me : Another great dance song. It's one of their first singles, and I really enjoy this one ! This track is perhaps not the best of the CD, but it has much energy and it's excellent. (5/5)
12. Take Your Chance : A nice dance track, it's not my favourite but very good and enjoyable. (4.5/5)
13. Fun Factory's Theme : This is what we can call "eurotechno". It's not really dance, it's instrumental. It's quite enjoyable. (4/5)
14. We Are The World : The last track, similar to "Take Your Chance" : nice dance track that you will enjoy surely. (4.5/5)

Overall a great CD that you will enjoy if you like Eurodance, and also euro-reggae. It's worth the buy, give it a try !!!

I like Fun Factory mainly because they combine rap, singing, and techno music all into one. This is a great combination for dance music fans. People who like this album should buy 2 Unlimited, Vengaboys, and La Bouche.

This is a very nice collection of the best songs by this German Dance/Pop group, that I used to listen to a lot in the 90's. I think they only released 2 albums in the 90's, before putting this Greatest Hits collection, so it contains most of the songs form both of their albums.

Lyrics are very Simplistic, but whatever the lyrics miss, Melody Hooks compensate for. And melody hooks are Amazing, very Catchy tunes. I used to listen to them a lot in the mid 90's and still enjoy a listen (they had some of the best music back then), it all brings back many memories.

The songs have a female Singer with a Powerful Voice (Marie Annet), and great Rappers (Tony D and Smooth T). The Musical Genius/Composers behind this project were Toni Cottura and Bulent Aris. By the way, Aris and Cottura wrote a song for Backstreet Boys called "Get Down (You're the one for Me)" and Smooth T of Fun Factory was a guest rapper on that song (it was featured on BSB's first US album). Fun Factory also performed with BSB in Germany, before BSB hit it big in USA.

Aris/Cottura wrote all the songs on this Album, except the Horrible Cover "Doh Wah Diddy Diddy". This song is Horrible, and Fun Factory's cover did not help it. IMO Bad Choice of a Cover.

All other songs are Great and Original compositions . They range between:

Fast Eurodance/Techno with Male rap and Female Vocals (These are my Favorites):

"Pain" - Very Fast track, very catchy
"Take Your Chance" - Great Fast track, LOVE IT!!!
"Close to You" - Very Romantic and Fast EuroDance song. LOVE IT!
"Prove Your Love" - a Great Fast, Galloping, and Uplifting Song
"Groove Me" - also very fast and Energetic, with Hooky Melody
"We are the World" - Can't help but move to this.
"Fun Factory's theme" - an Instrumental EuroTechno track, Nice

Now there are also some nice Pop/Reggae songs, they are Dance, but Not very Fast. All Very catchy. These are:

"Celebration"
"I Wanna B with You"
"Love of My Life"
"Don't Go Away"
"Oh Yeah Yeah"

Now the CD also has One Beautiful Love Ballad, Very Slow, and very Romantic. It's called "I Love You", it has a Great Chorus, and a Slow Male Rap. Great Great Great song.

This is a Great CD to have if you like Dance, Techno, or Quality and Clean Rap music (Awesome Rap here). Or if you simply want to listen to Catchy and Upbeat Pop songs. whatever you like, this CD will definitely touch you in some way or other.

Thank You Very Much, and I hope you Enjoy this CD, and have Fun :)

..."I Wanna B With U" is a very fun song you can dance to. I love that they had Marie-Anett as the main vocals of the song. Rod D., Smooth T, and Steve along with Marie-Anett make a great combination when it comes to great dance music.

Their music is the bomb!I like Fun Factory because their music cheers me up.My favorite song is Oh Yeah Yeah .

I think this c.d.is very good,but my question how come i'm the only guy writing this?Am i the only guy that likes this c.d. or what huh?

Although you can find various original/remixed Fun Factory cuts on every serious dance/d.j. compilation from the mid-90s, this compilation cuts through the hassle and gives the buyer exactly what he/she is looking for.

"Close To You", "Pain", "I Wanna Dance With U" became their main staples, and anybody who loves the days of anthemic techno gone by will need to own these as well as Real McCoy's "Another Night" album.
