Editorial Reviews

This compilation may not sport many well-known artists or quickly recognizable songs (with the exception of Fine Young Cannibals' "She Drives Me Crazy," Chad Fisher's straightforward cover of "Oye Como Va," and Eskimos of Love's take on Split Enz’s "I Got You"), but it contains enough interesting nuggets to make it worth looking into. Opening track "No Sleep 2nite" is a prime example. You may not have heard of Molly McQueen (unless you're a Britophile familiar with her former band, the short-lived Faders) but her song is a super-catchy, Motown-influenced stomper. (It's reprised at the end in a different mix.) Likewise, the Magic Numbers" "Love Is a Game" unfurls with a lazy grace and Teitur (a soft-spoken troubadour born in the remote Faroe Islands) offers the romantic ballad "One & Only." This CD doesn't have much in a stylistic or thematic sense, but it does have a few good, underexposed tunes. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

This review is from: My Super Ex-Girlfriend (Audio CD)

Each songs are really good but I don't understand why it's said that no sleep 2nite is sung by Molly MCqueen and not the Faders (is the band seperated?!).Anyway even if I already knew the song it was a nice way to start the compilation with (but the remix was a little unnecessary).Rachel Robinson's rescue me song is defenatly one of my favorites along with love is a game,one and only,lover come up,love love love and I got you.It was also fun to have two hits on the CD (a recent and an oldy),the joker and she drives me crazy.So if you are into romantic comedy soundtrack style,this one's made for you.Let's hope the movie is as good as it is.
