Not a boy band by any means!, August 17, 2005
I wanted to differentiate these guys from the 'boy band' label they seem to be getting. Their tour pairings are not indicative at all of what this band is about. Too bad they might get lumped into that group of 'artists'. On the other hand, if it means they will get exposure, then that part is good. Not many boy bands play their own instruments, writes most of the songs on their CD, went to The Berkley school of music, & have the backing of respected musicians from Kiss (Paul Stanley), Fountains of Wayne (Adam Schlesenger), & The Cars (Elliott Easton). I can't think of any in fact. To be clear, this is no boy band. These guys are a lighter version of Power Pop. Think Fountains of Wayne's song "Stacy's Mom" & you'll be right on the money to their sound. Think The Cars, think Rick Springfield, think Swirl 360, think The Tories, think The Posies & then add a little more sugar & you get The Click Five.
Seriously though, for those that like more bubbly happy tunes ala "Stacy's Mom", this is the CD for you. It's a CD packed full of HOOKS & more HOOKS with thick harmony & power chord guitar riffs (think Jesse's Girl by Rick Springfield) galore. Throw in original material, one cover, one Paul Stanley tune & two Adam Schlesinger tunes, and you have one catchy CD that is sure to please most harmony hungry power pop fans. Is this the next coming of The Beatles or the 90's Jellyfish? No, but it sure is a catchy collection of radio friendly tunes that'll have you singing in the shower and car. It's summer fun at it's best. Not very deep, but infecious & catchy doesn't need to be. These are fine musicians schooled at one of the best music schools in the country serving up sugary sweet tunes that have FUN written all over them.

The click5 is ~~awesome~~!, October 22, 2005
A Kid's Review
this CD is so awesome. ive been listening to it nonstop since it came out! the songs dont sound like backstreet boys or nysync at all- just listen to like "bye bye bye" (nsnyc) and then listen to "good day" (click5) or even a song with the title "Pop princess" (click5) and they dont sound alike at all
heres what i think of the songs (btw- im 16, not under 13)
1. Good Day- 5/5 this song is one of the best. it sounds kinda like "just the girl"
2. Just the Girl- 5/5 the song that made them famous! this is their first single and it was wrote by fountains of wayne.
3. Catch your Wave- 5/5 i guarantee you that the chorus will get stuck in your head! its addictive! i luv this song!
4. I'll take my chances- 2/5 slow song but it just doesnt go with the cd. i dont care for the lyrics. least fav song on the album
5. Friday Night- 4/5 good, but i dont like the constant repeating of the high pitched "its friday night" like 20 times each time the chorus comes around
6.Angel to you (devil to me)- 4/5 another good song but it doesnt have any meaning to it
7.Resign- 5/5 one of my favorites! its slower than "good day" but faster than "ill take my chances". it is a really sweet song. i love when Eric Dill, the lead singer, hits those high notes!
8. pop princess- 5/5 strangely addictive... but dont think its a bubblegum pop song due to the title, its not.
9. time machine- 4/5 i hate the beginning and it has really weird lyrics (i need to unwind in my time machine?) but i like the chorus while i dislike the lyrics. it gets stuck in my head
10. lies- 5/5 good song. i think its a remake. it sounds like a older song from the 80's. but i like it
11. Say goodbye- 5/5!!! my fav song! its slow but its so sweet.
overall- definately worth buying if you like pop. otherwise you'll complain about it being too poppy. enjoy!
