3.0 out of 5 stars okay effort., January 13, 2000

This review is from: Get Fired Up (Audio CD)

i first became aware of fgd in the early 90's with a track called "reach for me". the group was actually called "funky green dogs from outer space" at the time and their sound was fresh and live. when i saw that they had a full-length album, i snapped it up immediately - i was thrilled to find it. however, i wasn't thrilled, but not exactly disappointed by the album when i first listened to it. it just did not contain songs with the same drive and energy as their earlier works. admittedly over time, the cd has grown on me and makes good background music, but i don't ever select it as a "warm-up" cd for getting me in the mood for dancing and it is far from being a favourite.

4.0 out of 5 stars Dont hate on this album!, January 19, 2004

There are more hot tunes than not on this album! All the haters of this album were the very ones shakin their a** all night long on the dance floor whenever they played it in the club. The very ones who can sing "Fired Up" and "The Way" and even "So Good" word for word. Ok, I admit the lyrics aren't that difficult to learn after listening for 45 seconds of play but still! They're catchy!! Hot beats! As far as composition the interlude tracks made no sense to me, however this album still gets me moving. The tribal sounds are still as fresh today on this album as they were back in the mid 90's when it released. And Pamela Williams vocals are strong and evoke a feeling of freedom and empowerment from within on every track. I feel that this is definately a upbead, feelgood cd worth having in your collection.

2.0 out of 5 stars These Green Dogs are'nt funky enough!, August 24, 1998

This Cd was a real disapointment after I heard good things about the two dj's that comprise the funky green dogs. I was expecting something original and off the wall. This Cd is a collection of R&B songs not groundbreaking dance music. It was just not funky enough for me.
