Editorial Reviews

This listing is for a brand new POP HITS MONTHLY ROCK SEPTEMBER 2001 Karaoke CDG (PHMR0209).This top of the line CD comes sealed in a heavy plastic jewel case, plays the music without the lead vocals and displays the lyrics on a Karaoke CD&G player. This is a Multiplex CD which has the 8 songs without vocals as well as the same 8 songs with guide vocals to help the singer learn the song before singing it in public. These songs are not preformed by the original artists but they are probably one of the BEST re-creations available.<P>PHMR - 0209 <P>01 The Way- Red Hot Chili Peppers 10 <P>02 Where Are You Going- Dave Matthews Band 11 <P>03 Darkness, Darkness- Robert Plant 12 <P>04 Where Do We Go From Here- Filter 13 <P>05 Hate To Say I Told You So- Hives 14 <P>06 I Feel So- Boxcar Racer 15 <P>07 Secret Touch- Rush 16 <P>08 Fine Again- Seether 17 <P>09 Downfall- Trustcompany 18

3.0 out of 5 stars Trust Company "Downfall" is WAY OFF!, May 17, 2010

This review is from: PHMR-0209 POP HITS MONTHLY ROCK Karaoke CDG SEPTEMBER 2002 MULTIPLEX (Audio CD)

Usually Pop Hits Monthly is the best choice for rock karaoke, but this disc contains a major flaw that was pointed out by one of my singers recently: Track 9, Trust Company (aka TRUSTcompany) "Downfall", is unbelievably wrong and inaccurate and completely missing the chorus of the song! I was a bit skeptical when one of my karaoke singers pointed this out to me, but made a note of it to research later. I just looked up the song, and the single version and album version are identical, and just over 3 minutes long. The karaoke version on this CDG is 4:27! I compared the actual song to the karaoke version on this disc, and aside from the instrumental intro and parts of the first verse, it's not even close! I will be replacing it in my karaoke books with the Sound Choice version, which is quite good.

I do still feel this CDG is worth having. There are two songs on here where the karaoke versions are the best I've ever sang to: Track 1, Red Hot Chili Peppers "By The Way" and Track 8, Seether "Fine Again".

As for the rest of the disc, I'm not familiar with the songs enough to really make a judgment, but I can say I've never had any singer complain about them while I've been hosting karaoke. Pop Hits Monthly Rock/Rocker CDGs are usually versions of awesome quality, and I'm extremely curious how this karaoke version of "Downfall" got so far off. But buyer beware, if you're looking to buy this karaoke disc for that one song, look elsewhere. I did find a decent version elsewhere in my karaoke collection: Sound Choice. It's on Disc #3333, which is PowerPicks Pop/Rock Vol. 181.
