Rooney Bonus Track!, January 5, 2004
This review is from: Rooney (Audio CD)
Personally I don't own this, but I have the Regular version on CD and I downloaded the other two songs. They are wonderful! Rooney is a great band with a hint of 70's, weezer and 'nu' rock.
The songs are original, the music can vary from Headbanging to toe-tapping. Its a wonderful track and I recamend it for people who are into rock, alternative popular [ex: Matchbox 20, No Doubt, All American Rejects], and anything in between.
1. Blueside - You start out with some great guitar and soon comes in some great voice. Very good for Partys! I love the anger the singer gets out in this one. 5/5 *****
2. Stay Away - I didn't like this much in the begining but what can I say? It grew on me. I like its uptown retro style! 3/5 ***
3. If It Were Up To Me - Def. one of my favrioutes on the track, it starts out slow and gets louder. The lyrics are funny and they really paint a comedy in your mind. 4/5 ****
4. Terrible Person - Same situation as above, its hilarious and wickidily devious. 4/5 ****
5. Pop Stars - Popstars brings out the worst of popstars, but the best of Rooney. Clever, and well thought out it tells the true story of the "unsophisticated money machines" with a loud rock and roll attitude. 5/5 *****
6. Shakin - I can't tell what the songs about but.. it sure is a great song to dance to. "I'm sh-sh-shakin" is a great hit. 4/5 ****
7. Daisy Duke - My favrioute song on the CD. It tells a kinky story of a secret affair. Beautiful and mastered by the powerful chords of 'nu' rock, this up beat piece of heaven rocks my world. 6/5 ******
8. Sorry Sorry - A sweet romantic flick, with a twist of electric guitars. 4/5 ****
9. That Girl Has Love - A sweet remorse of a girl that takes her own life, and the singer grieves through this. 5/5 *****
10. Simply Because - Short, unless you listen carefully because if you arn't you might miss it. But very good all the same! 3.5/5 ***.*
11. Losing All Control - I love the ending. Its a great song that reminds me of the beatles. 4/5 ****
12. Floor (Bonus Track) - From the first couple notes you are addicted. An ex-boyfriend talking about how he never loved her, its a party hit. ***** 5/5
13. Makes Some Noise (Bonus Track) - Three words: I love it. 5/5 *****
I hope you buy it! Thanks for reading!

Listening for the second time and I already love it!, February 26, 2004
This review is from: Rooney (Audio CD)
I had heard about Rooney before but what really got me listening to them was their apperance on The OC. I liked I'm Shakin' and decided to add their CD to my wish list. My friend sent it to me as a Valentine's Day gift and just arrived today and I love it! Their tunes are hard to describe, but they're not too heavy on the guitar, and their voices sound good when they sing together. If you like All American Rejects and/or Weezer then I suggest Rooney.
