5.0 out of 5 stars Scorps at their finest..., November 26, 2001

By	Michael J Harrington (Phoenix, Arizona USA) - See all my reviews

This CD was what was to become a victim of rock of the 80's - excess, loud, and all that great stuff. Regardless, the Scorps delivered a powerhouse bunch of rock tunes as well as some classic 'slow' stuff that wasn't just rock ballad stuff ("Winds of Change").

Can the icons of metal change? Well, I would say that this CD proves it. Scorps, after so many years of 'powerhouse rock' stuff, as well as classic rock ballads, something had to swing - and here you have it with 'Crazy World'. There is underlying tone to most of the tunes here, as you can tell that they are ready to rock, but ready for some new forms of it - take their follow up CD's as an example...

Either way, the bottom line is that this is one of the best Scorps CD's there is - period. What they did after this or before is really not relevant - what matters is how you get into this CD for what it is - and it rocks, period.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE BEST ALBUM OF ALL TIME, February 25, 2001

By	Drew Danen (Down here in the styx of Wisconsin) - See all my reviews

This album shows how good hard rock can get with high flying amazing solos and great lyrical work and i dicovered this while staying up all night one saturday night in the summer of 1999. (12:00AM)It was gonna be another one of my late night being alone and rockin out sort of nights and I had chose one album to rock out to and i picked Crazy World. Now when i started listening to it the sound of it hit me like a ton of bricks and i ended up listening to it 6 times during to period of 12:00AM - 5:00AM, never really wearing out my likeing to it but sort of memorizing every word that Klause was singing.(5:00AM) I saw the sun was creeping up on the horizon through the living room window and at the time I was listening to "Send Me An Angel" and at that very moment me opening my eyes and seeing the sun and listening to that song at the same time created a feeling so powerful that i bursted into tears. With every good album i listen to i compare it to crazy world and no album comes close to the power to this great album had on me.

By	G. Jobin - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

"Crazy World" is without the shadow of a doubt a classic rock/metal album that deserves to be recognize for what it is. Possibly to date their very best album.
