This is one of those records crafted purely to dance around to and have a great time with. "We're Going to Ibiza" has to be one of the catchiest dance-pop songs of the late '90s; luckily the rest of the Vengaboys' greatest-hits collection provides similarly hedonistic, gloriously vapid pleasures. The Vengaboys' sound is what might happen if one were to throw Ace of Base, Stardust, and Miami Sound Machine into a blender and press the Purée button. The group (two women and two men) may look like a Saturday morning Spice Girls-meets-the-Village People cartoon, but their sound is not quite as campy as they look; it's all about fun--nothing more, nothing less. --Mike McGonigal

3.0 out of 5 stars So when do we get another album?, July 25, 2004

I still listen to this 5 years later because it's just got great tunes to dance to. I usually listen to it in the kitchen on our CD stereo while cleaning and I have noticed lately that they even use one of the songs on a KFC commerical, so when playing it at a party recently, people kept saying, oh my god thats the KFC song even though the song has been out for a while.
I sure would like a followup but I am guessing they maybe arent together anymore.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kinda Party, Kinda not (Mostly party), November 15, 2000

This album is better than I expected. I thought every song would be like the Vengabus, and I was WAAAAAAY off. Of course, the Vengabus is the best song on the CD, but a lot of the others rock too. Boom Boom Boom Boom is a great song that is a REAL dance tune. Up and Down is a great song when you listen to it. It could even be used as a workout song. Ho Ho Vengaboys is incredibly catchy. We're Going To Ibiza is my second favorite song on the CD. I wasn't too fond of To Brazil, but it's what you like. Vengababes From Outer Space is ccol too. The last few songs are boring, but I haven't had the patience to listen to those. The first 5 songs are what will pull you in. You'll love this CD if you like to listen to quick music or LOVE dancing! Get it NOW!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A straight-up party disc- nothing more, nothing less, October 17, 2000

Many people consider the Vengaboys, one of the hottest dance acts to emerge from Europe in recent years, as an untalented and lame outift who work alongside computers and synthesizers and sing really badly to really bad songs. I defenitely prefer to differ. Their debut cd, the Gold-certified THE PARTY ALBUM! (released as UP AND DOWN in the rest of the world) has helped opened up the doors for more European dance acts to explode succcessfuly onto the US charts. Featuring the Top 40 smash "We Like to Party!", the Vengaboys are nothing but pure fun and pure energy...

We Like to Party! : This was the Vengaboy's first explosive hit, and with its recognizable synth-line and great chorus, it's easy to undestand why this became one of the biggest dance hits of 1999. Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom! : The perfect club song! At my high school's recent homecoming dance, they played this song (along with "We Like to Party!") and let me tell you the energy on the dance floor was HOT!

Up and Down : A #1 smash on the Billboard Dance chart, "Up And Down" was the single that got Europe's attention and helped make Vengaboys one of the biggest dance acts around.

So don't go looking for the most critically acclaimed album of the year or a Grammy-winner for this cd. Buy this cd if you're looking for great party music and great fun- you won't be disappointed.
