5.0 out of 5 stars PLAY = ONE OF THE BEST GIRL BANDS EVER!!, April 23, 2003

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Play (Mini Album) (Audio CD)

I can't Play this album enough!! Play are obviously very talent girls, their music is the best!! Here's my review of the album:

I'm gonna Make You Love Me (Featuring Chris Trousdale of Dream Street) - A very catchy song!! Faye's vocals are especially great in this song but the whole of Play (and Chris) do a great cover of this song!

Us Against The World - This song is incredibly cute!! All about friendship!! Very danceable and popish!! Love this song!!

Cinderella - Very catchy song about independance!! The girls do a great version of this song.

Hopelessly Devoted - A cover from Grease (originally sung by Olivia Newton-John) Play take this song and give it a pop theme! They do a really good cover of this song!! I LOVE listening to this song!

Is It Love? - A slow song where Anna sings a lot. She doesn't sing that much on the album and this song shows how she can do well when she's given this chance to sing!! This song is very good!!

I Don't Get Down Like That - Great beat to this song!! Enjoyable to listen to and puts a message across at the same time!! Great song!!

Disco Hippie - Very good song to dance to at a party!! Cute and put you in the dance type of mood!! Listen to it and dance away with your friends!!

I would recommend this album to Play fans, pop lovers, basically people who like to listen to good music!! The only downside to this album is it only has 7 tracks!! I LOVE this album!! Faye, Anais, Anna and Rosie are talented and awesome and... I could go on forever!! If you haven't already bought it then go do so!! Right now!! You'll love it!!

4.0 out of 5 stars This CD was really great!, July 25, 2002

By 

Sara (Houghton, MI USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Play (Mini Album) (Audio CD)

PLAY is a multi-tlented group and I think that this album and everything they've done in previous years proves it.
'Hopelessly Devoted' was my least favorite song on this album just because, the way they do it makes it sound too.....happy, I guess. Olivia Newton-John's way better on that song.
With 'I'm Gonna Make You Love Me', I think Faye's voice was even better then it is on other songs, and Chris Trousdale was perfect for the part.
I got sick of 'Us Against the World' very very quickly. It's a great song, but it gets annoying after awhile.
'Disco Hippie' is very cool. I like the 'Ooh-Sha-la-la's that they had in that song.
'Is It Love' is a slow song that I'm taking to my school dance next year and I'm going to dance it with my best friend who happens to be a guy.
'Cinderella' is a great song, too, and it was by far my favorite song on the album. I love the way they sing it. It's amazing.
'I Don't Get Down Like That' sounds like it was written about a guy at my school who a lot of my friends went out with and then dumped him really quick. It's a perfect song if you just wanna boogie down some night! :)
Faye and Anais are obviously the lead singers(Faye more than Anais), and I don't think Anna sang lead at all! I don't know if she does on any of their songs that aren't on the album but still, she should sing lead on at least one song!
All being considered, this is an amazing album and I can't wait for PLAY's next one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Gotta PLAY it over again, December 6, 2003

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Play (Mini Album) (Audio CD)

This album may not be as good as "Replay", but at least it has some good song. Here is my rating"

1.I'm Gonna Make You Love Me: 3/5 This song is kind of slow, but sometimes when you listen to it too much, it gets boring.

2.Us Against The World: 5/5 This is my favorite song. The music and lyrics are so beautiful. It is about how friends always come first, even if there is a cute boy. I just love the line "Whenever you're near/There is no fear/ It just feels like there's nothing I can do/ You make me feel strong/Cause it's here with you that I belong."

3.Cinderella: 5/5 This is my second favorite song. I like this song better than The Cheetah Girls. Their music is so low and really slow. While Play is really loud and fast. The Cheetah Girls just sound like that they are not even trying. Play is really trying and that is what make it better. It is about how the girls can take care of themselves and that we don't need any boys to save us. I just love the line "I can slave my own dragon/I can dream my own dream/My knight in shining armor is me." and "I'll be there just as strong as he will be there for me."

4.Hopelessly Devoted: 4/5 This song goes from slow to fast.

5.Is It Love: 4/5 This song also goes from slow to fast.

6.I Don't Get Down Like That: 3/5 This song is not really that good.

7.Disco Hippie: 3/5 This song is really a hip hop kind of song.
