If You are Interested in Hearing music with INCREDIBLE MELODIES, MUSIC HOOKS, and CRAZY BEATS then Immediately get this album.

This whole album is done in Dance Genre. If You listen to it, it sounds as if there are two different bands performing. That's because there are two differnet dance genres featured here.

Tracks 2,4,6, and 10 are more DANCE/POP oriented songs, and are very similar to VENGABOYS or AQUA music. Extremely CATCHY, FUN and DANCEABLE.

Now the other tracks are done in more Serious EURO-DANCE genre. They have SUPERB MELODIES, DRIVING BEATS, and POWERFUL FEMALE VOCALS. Tracks 3,5,11, and 12 all belong to this category. If You like MASTERBOY, LA BOUCHE, E-TYPE, BASIC ELEMENT or REAL MCCOY then you will LOVE these. These are the songs that I enjoyed THE MOST on this Album.

# 9 "Fantasy" is more of a TECHNO CLUB Song. Just Awesome.
# 8 "Push It" is a cover of Salt'n'Pepa's hit. These guys really did an Amazing Job Remixing this Great Hip Hop classic.

# 13 "I Gotta Know" is very Similar to the kind of Music ACE OF BASE did. Very Enjoyable Dance.

This is simply and Incredible DANCE/POP/TECHNO album. Solid Base's Writers and Producers are Very Talented Individuals.
Make sure to Check out SOLID BASE's other 3 albums. They are All GREAAAAT, some are even better that this one.

Enjoy.

This CD is really "gr8" !!! It's perhaps not the best euro-album of the world but it's so good ! As you can see, in the title of my review, it is not just classic eurodance. It has also some popdance, tracks "This Is How We Do It" & "Sha La Long", or pop "Come On Everybody", "Once You Pop", "Baila Bolero". But the rest of the album is great eurodance that you really can enjoy. "Set Me Free" (the best track !!!), "Colours Of Your Dreams" & "Stay With Me" are 3 great euro-tracks, these 3 are my favourites of the album. "Love" is slower but still great, it is also a great euro-track. "Fantasy" is more euro-techno, similar to the tracks of Technotronic's "Recall" album. "Push It" is a cover, more similar to popdance tracks but not really. Maybe "I Gotta Know" is not a really good track, but the rest of this album is great. Get it if you like euro and pop !! ;)

This cd is so awesome! I'm a huge fan of Aqua and Toybox. I bought the Daze album, but it was a little too cutesy. I tried Vengaboys, but it's kind of lacking in good sing-along lyrics. I'm a little critical of the "Sha La Long" song, since it's so much like Vengaboys' "Boom Boom Boom Boom"...but I think I actually like it better. This cd takes great beats like vengaboys and ads great voices like Ace of Base. For under [$$$], this cd is a GREAT deal too!

Sure their lyrics are cheesy. Unlike Aqua, Solid Base has great voices; they could sing (no offense to Aqua fans). This cd is great, along with their other two: Finally & The Take Off. This is one of the best Eurodance group I've ecountered. Great beats and very enjoyable music. MUST BUY!!

This is a Great Group they'v got Plantium in there Home country In Swedden and all over Europe. People If you Like Eurodance Music This is a very good album. Espically the Songs Colours Of your Dreams and Stay with me and Set Me Free. This is agood album it needed a LiL More Touch to be Perfect but still is a great Album so You Should buy it.

As I said in a previous review, Solid Base is one of the most consistent and most exhilerating groups to come out of Europe. Solid Base reinforces my opinion that the best dance music today comes out of Scandinavia - namely Sweden. With their newest album, "Express", this Swedish boy-girl duo turn out a fun and top-quality album that has a nearly-flawless line up of tracks. This is the one album that all Euro-Dance fans should add to their collection. There is something here for everyone. Most of the songs on this album follow the same recipe.....hot dance music with leade female vocalist and male rapper. As for the most exciting tracks here, my vote goes to THIS IS HOW WE DO IT(#2) which is the hot, well-known party song released as a single last year, SET ME FREE(#3), COME ON EVERYBODY(#4), COLOURS OF YOUR DREAM(#5), SHA LA LONG(#6), BAILA BOLERO(#10), STAY WITH ME(#11) which is, by far, my personal favorite, LOVE(#12) and I GOTTA KNOW(#13). BAILA BOLERO is the expected Latin-flavored track - does every Euro-group have to have that one Latin song on each of their albums?? LOVE is a nice surprise that only Solid Base could oull-off with their usual flair and energy. This song is a ballad/dance/hip-hop track that comes together as one of this group's finest efforts. Solid Base just can't seem to do any wrong.....this is, undoubtedly, one of the dance genres finest albums.

THIS ALBUM IS FUN, THIS GROUP IS GOOOOOOD! HOW THEY COME UP WITH
THESE LYRICS AND TUNES? I DON'T KNOW, BUT AMERICA NEEDS TO WAKE
UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE IN EUROPE AND GET SOME POINTERS! IF YOU GO TO ASIA, WHETHER IT BE IN KOREA, MALAYSIA OR THE PHILIPPINES THESE ARE THE TYPES OF MUSIC THAT YOU ARE GOING TO HEAR AND MORE.
IF YOU BUY THIS ALBUM, I PROMISE YOU WILL ENJOY 90% OF THE MUSIC
CONTAINED IN THIS CD. AND FOR THE PRICE, NOTHING CAN BEAT THAT FOR WHAT YOU'RE GETTING. I BET IF THEY STARTED PLAYING THE SONGS
IN THE AIR THIS CD WILL BE ALL SOLD OUT! ONE MORE THING, SWEDEN
IS JUST LOADED WITH EUROBEAT TALENT!!! GO SWEDEN!

I bought this album because I heard "Colours Of Your Dream" on Euro Trance Internet radio and assumed the rest of the album would bear some resemblence - it doesn't. This is the sort of music I go to great lengths to avoid here in the States.

It is a combination of sugary pop songs sung by Isabelle Heitmann layered with kiddie rap by Thomas Nordin. This music lacks any kind of depth and might be suitable for pre-teens or early teens.

I challenge any self respecting adult to listen to track six "Sha La Long" with "Boom Boom Boom Boom everybody lets have fun" repeated 50 times without seeking an immediate drink!

I give this album two stars for "Colours Of Your Dream" which would greatly benefit from a few solid DJ remixes.
