Review #30: Promo Only: Dance Radio December 2007

Reviewed on 11.21.2007 (Review #30)


I have a feeling this CD iz gonna be good ‘cause I’m sick wit allergies. :( But I’m lookin’ forward!! I had to wait a day to post it ‘cause I didn’t have any computer to go to to put tha review up, but Happy 21st Birthday to my boy Jeff Jones! Now then, here goes my review for Promo Only Dance Radio December 2007, and at tha end, I’m gonna have, as a bonus, tha year end version of my rankings (which will be each No. 1 rated song from each CD from this year). Start Time: 8:39 PM


Disclaimer: I rate each song from 1.0 – 5.0; each rating iz my own opinion! I only please myself wit my ratings! I don’t care how lyrical you are, as long as it’s jammin’ enough for me to like it! I look for beats, then vocals, and then lyrics. To determine my favorites, I will differ tha 4.0 ratings. If a song gets at least a 4.0 rating from me, I love it already. If at least a 4.6 rating, I pretty much really love it, as it’s considered mindblowin’ when I hear it! Any song can earn up to a maximum of a 5.0 rating. Anything I type before “ >>> “ iz what I’m sayin’ before I listen to tha song; anything after I type “ >>> “ iz what I think of tha song while I’m listening to it.
 
© 2007 CD Review (Review #30) reviewed on 11.21.2007 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.


01. Santana Feat. Chad Kroeger “Into The Night (Tommie Sunshine Remix Radio Edit)”
Not expecting much (even tho it has content warning I guess ‘cause of CK – lead singer of Nickelback). :arrow: Nice intro, and sounding pretty good, so I give it a :tu. Nice different way of starting. :tu My Rating: 3.9

02. David Guetta Feat. Cozi “Baby When The Light”
Lemme hear tha difference between tha Album Version vs. tha Radio Edit again. :arrow: Intro sounds better than that slow on on tha AV. Different start, and not catching on too quick… Oh wow I guess this even sounds like “LDLMG (WA)”. This ain’t tha same I heard on iPR… My Rating: 3.8

03. September “Can’t Get Over (Radio Edit)”
Booo… Time for a current rating. :( Robbins should’ve signed a different September song! Reminds me of a theme I had in late July, and it reminds me of taking my driving lessons. Also reminds me of its flopping 1 spin at LC. My Current Rating: 3.8

04. Paul Van Dyk Feat. Rea Garvey “Let Go (Promo Only Radio Edit)”
It’s about time I have this now. Got a High AL for it. :arrow: For this I didn’t expect tha male vocals, but I’ll see what’s up. Reminding me of his 2003 stuff… A lot of music in this one. Nice lil’ late night music in my opinion. My Rating: 3.6

05. Mika “Relax (Take It Easy) (Tony Moran/Riggs Club Mix)”
Good to hear a club mix and all this shit combined into this song, so I’m looking forward! :arrow: Currently tha best out of all tha 5 songs so far. Great mix of production & vocals. :tu My Rating: 4.2

06. Spencer & Hill “Get It On (House Radio Edit)”
Hopefully this’ll sound good ‘cause I’ve been waiting to hear. High AL. :arrow: Good it’s not Intenso Project/Lisa Scott-Lee remake. :tu Sounds pretty good so far. Thumbs up. :tu My Rating: 3.9

07. Danielle Bollinger “Surrender Me (Original Radio)”
Really looking forward to re-hearing! Got a High AL! Let’s see if there’s that TM/WR music! :arrow: Yup, and now I’m starting to remember it easily. :tu I like how every DB song has a different producer/remixer. That’s watz good. :tu Real good sounding! :tu :clap: My Rating: 4.4

08. Seal “Amazing (Thin White Duke Edit)”
Actually I’m startin’ to feel it better now that it’s playin’ on all 3 of my dance sources. Kaskade still has some nice up-tempo music. I still think that’s a cheesy chorus in tha beginning. “Everyone says you’re amazing now that you’re clean!” Lol… My Rating: 3.2

09. Bob Sinclar Feat. Steve Edwards “Together (Radio Edit)”
I waited patiently to hear it. I think it sounds like “W, HO (COTS)”. :arrow: Lol @ that intro. Sounds like somethin’ I’d hear in an Urban song “we’re back!” I dunno… compared to my High AL’s for this CD, this iz sounding cheesy… Feelin’ tha music tho. My Rating: 3.5

10. Holmes Ives Feat. Avalon Frost “8 Letters (Starkillers Dirty Girl Radio Mix)”
For some reason I have a High AL (better be good!!), and for tha first time on PODR, Mr. Nick Terranova (a.k.a. Starkillers) remixed a song. Even tho he doesn’t like me, I still look forward to hearing what he’s got! :arrow: Nice start. I can see me liking it, but it’s sounding a lil’ weird… That “ah heard” lol… My Rating: 3.6
EDIT: Starkillers “didn’t like me” in January 2007 when I told him he got an award from me for his “Discoteka” song. He didn’t think my awards were real… Now, as of 2014, we’re following each other on Twitter, so it’s all good, now.

Halftime: Fuck a “weak” ½ time update! It’s time for tha Henri song!!

11. Henri “Push The Button (Dave Audé Original Radio)”
Statistically tha HIGHEST AL, and I kept having dreams about reviewing/listening to it!! VERY HIGH AL!! :arrow: Looking forward, especially now that I have a cherry cough drop in my mouth! :P By tha listening to it, why would this be dirty? Oh I see “sexy ass”. Yeah! :D I like tha different vocals. :tu My Rating: 4.1

12. Blue Man Group “Canta Conmigo (Funky Junction Spanish Radio Mix)”
Let’s see what’s new wit tha BMG… :arrow: Nice intro. Hopefully I’m looking forward. Really feelin’ tha music. It had strength during tha 1st verse! :tu There wasn’t much of that strong music during tha 2nd verse. :( Who would’ve guessed… This song got a better FL for me than Henri’s. :shock: My Rating: 4.3

13. Cam Tyler “Feels Like Heaven (Radio Edit)”
I HOPE this iz female vocals!! :arrow: I was *correct*. :tu This sounds like something I would like. :) I’m not sure if I remember, but if this iz tha song wit Family Tree as its label, then it’s from September’s import label. :tu :tu My Rating: 4.5

14. Enur Feat. Natasja “Calabria 2007”
Shit I’ve been having A LOT of fun wit this song right here! Today I kept showing Lil’ Frankie’s friends tha video, and messin’ around wit tha pitch in tha voice, and it was hella funny. I don’t know tha words, but it’s tha BIGGEST dance song of 2007! I actually know where tha words are (will find a link later), but yeah, “Calabria 2007” has it goin’ on!!! R.I.P. Natasja tho. I think she died in a car accident, and it was on June 24, 2007! :( WHY DO PEOPLE NEED TO DIE? IT’S NOT CALLED 4!!! :( :( :( What should I rate this? My Rating: 4.3

15. Henrik B Feat. Terri B “Soul Heaven (Fonzerelli Remix)”
WTF tha CD iz now taking a nose dive!! :( :( Screw this MCD song wit its annoying vocals! Hopefully this brings good luck to No. 16! Shit those vocals don’t stop!! :mad: :mad: We didn’t need another “heaven” song after No. 13! My Rating: 2.3

16. DJ Russ Harris Feat. Jiga “Unsealed (Josh Harris Radio Edit)”
Oh no JH on ANOTHER CD… After hearing “Melting”, I wanna hear him again tho. High AL. What will tha follow-up sound like? :arrow: Off to a pretty good start. :tu I don’t have much to say, but I like that there’s a lil’ rap towards tha end. :tu My Rating: 4.1

17. Avalon Superstar Feat. Rita Campbell “So Alive (Original Radio Edit)”
MCD already on it. Let’s see this follow-up: :arrow: Nice intro. :tu It does sound like “All My Love” wit tha music formation. I still like it tho, and it turns out to be a good dance song. My Rating: 4.0

18. Inez “Stronger (Jody Den Broeder Radio Edit)”
Oh noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo… I can bet you anything this iz tha Party 105 mix! :arrow: Yes it iz. :rofl :rofl I’ll prolly play it a lot, but it’s a bad remix. :td Tha Weekend Wonderz Edit iz so much better. It at least has a melody to it. My Rating: 3.5

19. Pleasure Center “You’ve Got It All Wrong (Original Radio Edit)”
Lol @ all these “Original Radio Edit”s. :rofl I have a lot of AL for this, and I’m very uncomfortable right now wit a few things (my ass iz killin’ me, I’m fuckin’ up too many times in Donkey Kong 64 that I’m playing on my computer, and my nose/throat iz just terrible!!). Pleasure Center help cure my pains!! :arrow: Nice start. Should be good. This one came out good (prolly tha best out of all my High ALs so far). :tu My Rating: 4.6

20. Rockell “You Keep Me Hanging On (Radio Edit)”
Looks like PC iz making tha end of tha CD look good, so High AL for Rockell’s new one. Looking forward to hear her on this remake! :arrow: Nice beginning. Tha 132 music during tha 1st verse sounds kinda dry a lil’… It sounds cool tho. I’m likin’ tha music that’s not in tha verses. My Rating: 4.4

21. Cascada “Last Christmas (Radio Edit)”
Great ending, and just like wit tha 2004 PODR/SS’s, great end song for tha year! Let’s hear this 130 Cascadaness! :arrow: Sounding real good, and it sounds faster than 130. There’s always, OUTTA NOWHERE, a different / new Christmas song every year, and this one did it for this year! :tu And this wound up becoming tha best song on tha CD… This iz tha first time that it was tha last song! My Rating: 4.7

Overall: End Time: 10:32 PM. I thought this CD could’ve been better… A bunch of them songs needed a lil’ more strength… Not as good as tha last CD.


Songs/Mixes I Predict Will Make It To My Sources:
01, 02 (that version), 05, 07 (I hope since “TIB” didn’t), 08, 13, 20, and 21.

Songs/Mixes Already On My Sources:
03 (well it was; it’ll prolly re-enter), 04, 06, 09, 14, 15, 17, and 18.

And as promised, tha YEAR END rankings. These were tha songs that I ranked my No. 1 for each PODR CD for 2007. However, their original ratings won’t really effect this Top 12. I will have ADJUSTED CURRENT rankings, how I still feel about tha songs now:

Top 12 “No. 1 Rated” PODR Songs Of 2007:

12.       Judy Torres “I Don’t (Radio Edit)” Current Rating: 3.7
11.        Edun “Put ‘Em Up (Radio Edit)” Current Rating: 3.8
10.       Galaxy 68 Feat. Kate Lesing “Neverland (Radio Edit)” Current Rating: 3.9
09.       Undercover Divas Feat. Sam “Big Area (Radio Edit)” Current Rating: 4.0
08.       Soulshaker Feat. CeCe Peniston “Shame Shame Shame (Bass Monkeys Radio Edit)” Current Rating: 4.5
07.       Anavi w/Jere McAlister “Mustapha (Lenny Bertoldo Radio Edit)” Current Rating: 4.6
06.       Novelle “Save Me (The Rescued Mix (Harry Legg/KC Styles))” Current Rating: 4.7
05.       Cascada “Last Christmas (Radio Edit)” Current Rating: 4.7
04.       Drea “Free (De Lorean Radio Edit)” Current Rating: 4.7
03.       Sylvia Tosun “Head Over Heels (Warren Rigg Radio Mix)” Current Rating: 4.8
02.       DJ Russ Harris Feat. Tiffanie “Dance With Me (Klubjumpers Radio)” Current Rating: 4.9

It was VERY hard deciding which out of tha top 2 should get tha No. 1 spot, but I think it’s official: No. 1 actually broke a record for most plays in one day (it was like 53 I think), and it was very strong wit me. I remember one of tha first times I played it while I PICKed it, I was SHAKING… I had a SHAKING moment due to how EXCITING it was playing it, so here it goes: My No. 1 “No. 1 Rated” PODR song for 2007!!!!!!!!!!!!!:

01.       Leana “Embrace Me (Soulseekerz Radio Edit)” Current Rating: 5.0

Either way, “Dance With Me” wins for tha HIGHEST FL for 2007 wit a 5.0 rating. For Cascada & Sylvia Tosun, they never had any airplay wit me yet, so that’s why their current ratings didn’t change.
