5.0 out of 5 stars Waiting in my dreams !, August 2, 2001

Great 80's band/amazing 'best of' collection/ blah blah blah. note TRACK 12: 'Waiting in my dreams' is AWESOME and previously only available as a bootleg demo from the album PULL. The Chorus is very hooky. A true gem and nearly lost treasure. The mix of this song is top notch. The bridge is very cool too with lots of stock M-1 pitch bend panflutes and a huge gated/room early 90s kick and snare. Plenty of text book Mr Mr chants like 'whoaa-ohh' also to enjoy on this rare track.

OK, I'll admit it. The only song I remember hearing by Mr. Mister is their wonderful single, "Broken Wings." But now I have this collection and I'll say emphatically that far from being a one-song group, they have a breadth of style and a depth of harmonic and melodic skills that let them come up with this bunch of songs that'll make you tap your fingers, rock your head, or maybe even dance. These songs will certainly make you smile, help relieve your cares and lift your spirits. Dare I say it, this music will make you feel good. It's got a relentless surge of optimism and romance, and a heck of a good beat. This is a gifted group, and their music is a treasure.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Good!, August 25, 2002

By A Customer

Clearly, Mr.Mister was trying to sound like and be the American version of the Police.{Note,"Control" from "Go On".} If you ask me, I think that they were a pretty good band who were trying to be popular. I saw them as a warm up act for Don Henley in the Eighties, and they were just great! I think that "Go on" could have and would have been better if the single hadn't been "Something real [inside me/inside you." Their second album,"Welcome to the Real World," was definetly the best. Just buy that, because it had all the best hits. In general, Mr.Mister was one of those bands that was good, but didn't get too much publicity.
