3.0 out of 5 stars Only good if you like covers, December 1, 2004

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Let's Hear It For The 80s Vol. 2 (Audio CD)

The music is pretty good, but these are all covers by faceless session vocalists. If you want the orginal hits you hear on the radio or the danceclub, boys, keep looking. The main lure is hot cover boy.

This review is from: Let's Hear It For The 80s Vol. 2 (Audio CD)

I went into these cd's knowing that they are all covers and I was impressed for the most part. Some of the vocals sound too much like the cover artist is trying to imitate the original group/artist. The key tracks are, "Save A Prayer," "The Sun Always Shines On TV," "Every Breath You Take," and "Doot, Doot." Those are my personal favorites, at least.

This review is from: Let's Hear It For The 80s Vol. 2 (Audio CD)

I recently bought the entire Let's Hear It... series, including all four volumes of Let's Hear It For The Boy, Let's Hear It For The 70s and both Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 of Let's Hear It For The 80s and I think these compilations are wonderful! I especially enjoy working out to this one. "I Heard A Rumour" and "I Know There's Something Going On" are excellent. Perfect for fans of 80s music. Highly recommended!
