© 2008 CD Review (Review #36) reviewed on 1.01.2008 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.
01. Cascada “What Hurts The Most (Radio Mix U.S.)”
This
iz tha BIGGEST dance song of 2008! I noticed at about :30 there’s no kick-in
beats (unlike tha one I have). Gotta luv tha change up style throughout tha
whole thing!! :tu :tu My Rating: 4.8
02.
Natasha Bedingfield “Love Like This (Johnny Vicious Radio Mix)”
Okay
(on tha nice side), it’s growin’ on me! Especially tha original! I still think
that Sean Kingston should be in it. I mean, most of tha time it’s rappers cut
off. He’s a singer… Not bad for a remix. :tu Yeah tha bridge (when it’s just
NB) sounds kinda dumb. SK’s part was better! My Rating: 3.7
03.
Freemasons Feat. Bailey Tzuke “Uninvited (Radio Edit)”
This
song ALWAYS has that fresh quality sound! FM NEVA give up on their style!! Boo
there’s a different interlude! :td :td That would be a deduction, but it’s a
flat rating due to tha hot music and vocal combination. My Rating: 4.0
04.
Linda O “Wherever You Are (Chris “The Greek” Panaghi Radio Mix)”
I
gots a High AL for this new joint. Let’s see how she can do wit a follow up. I
predict a remake, but I’ll laugh if it’s a Laava remake. >>> Kinda
long of an intro (but that’s okay), but it sounds pretty good. :tu My Rating: 3.9
05.
Bellatrax Feat. Sophia May “I Can’t Help Myself (Sunfreakz Radio Edit)”
MCD
added it not too long ago. Looks like they like it for a low rotation song. I
got a High AL on this. Hopefully it’s good enough for my playlist! >>>
Sounds good, and a pretty good chorus too. :tu Yeah this iz pretty bangin’.
Gotta feel it. :tu Looks like it’ll set tha bar a lil’ for 2008. :tu My Rating: 4.1
06.
Taylor Dayne “Beautiful (The RJ Radio Edit)”
I
predict a good follow up to tha “Featureless” song. This one’ll prolly do big
in tha dance scene. High AL!
>>> Not bad for a start. I thought it was goin’ to be better. Can it
gain some power? I saw a Scotty K Radio Edit somewhere. That’ll prolly do tha
job. There’s nothin’ really in this mix… At tha end of tha bridge, it sounds
like tha intro to Sean Kingston “Take You There”. That’s prolly what makes it a
lil’ better… My Rating: 3.6
07.
Astrid “Be Your Own Hero (Doug Emery Radio Edit)”
This
better be good. I hope for female vocals, but that might not happen. *Gulp*…
>>> Ooh I was correct about hoping for tha female vocals. Not bad for
a start. I’m feelin’ it, although tha beats should’ve been a lot faster. This
would’ve been good if tha song was fast. This might grow on me for tha future,
but for now, it’s good. Better than tha Taylor Dayne song. My Rating: 3.7
08.
The Cheetah Girls “Fuego (Ranny’s Radio Edit)”
Let’s
see… Disney style… What should I expect? Maybe it’ll be mind-blowing…
>>> Slow beats, but off to a good start. :tu Yeah this be soundin’
good. Nice comeback to tha CD! I like all them cities and shit. :tu Looks like
an unexpected club banger! :tu Enjoyin’ that chorus. Glad to see it was
unexpected (like I predicted). :tu My
Rating: 4.3
09.
Justin Timberlake & Beyoncé “Until The End Of Time (Mike Rizzo Radio Edit)”
This
song iz real slow for me, even tho it’s okay. MCD plays tha Johnny Vicious
& DJ Escape mix, but I bet’cha Mike Rizzo’s iz better. Let’s see a comeback
for Mike Rizzo! >>> I didn’t get to listen to tha JV/DJ E mix really,
but I can tell this one sounds a lil’ better. It’s still super-slow tho. My Rating: 3.4
10.
Tomi “BABYGETDOWN (Soundpusher Remix Radio Edit)”
*Gulp*
(Before checking tha title) What iz it again…? *Checks* Oh yeah! It’s a High
AL! I like that CAPITAL LETTERS TITLE ALL IN ONE WORD, lol! >>> Hopefully
it’s good… … … … Sounds like it’s goin’ to be cheesy or good… Sounds a lil’
like JT… Even tho this song’s a lil’ dirty, I don’t really see interest in it.
:td I don’t think tha title should’ve been in CAPITAL LETTERS IN ONE WORD. If
that was tha case, there should’ve been some SCREAMIN’! My Rating: 2.4
½time: There hasn’t been too
many great songs… A bunch of them came out average… Hopefully my hopes are
correct for tha South Side Crew song!!
11.
Felix Da Housecat “Like Something 4 Porno! (Album Version)”
Unlike
that last song, this iz a GOOD cheesy song! It’s funny to me in a way, but I
like it. Lololololololol! Lmao! LMFAO! I miss tha good ol’ dayz at my college
when my boyz would watch all porn, and I’d be checkin’ it out. Damn, why’d tha
3rd semester have to be such a FUCKIN’ FUCK-UP? I never expected
this song to get on this CD! :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl My Rating: 4.0
12.
Lexter “Freedom To Love (Radio Edit)”
I
Know No. 13 iz big, so this prolly ain’t, so I guess this can pass, but lemme
peep it out anyway… >>> Yeah didn’t expect too much. Sounds like Latin
type of vocals… :( It even sounds like Bob Sinclar produced it… Which reminds
me this must be a song Ultra signed right… Figures… Wow tha beginning of tha
chorus iz way too cheesy for me… My
Rating: 2.8
13.
E-Type “True Believer (Radio Edit)”
I
already know this song, but it blows damn near EVERY one of these songs away!
Faraway! I feel like this was randomly put on this CD just to make me real
happy. Nobody’s gonna probably play this ‘cause they don’t know what REAL
BANGIN’ dance music iz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This song has such BANGIN’ music and
BANGIN’ vocals! It first reminded me/was big wit me when I had beef wit this
dude at college. It was like tha one thing that was on my mind everytime I
played this song, but fuck that shit. It’s 2008. Time to give this song a new
life, and I’m re-playing it now that it made PO!
:tu :tu :tu Oh yeah I always wanted this song to be on one of these CDs and now
it iz! :tu :tu My Rating: 4.9
14.
Ultra Feat. Chris Willis “Give It All You Got (Bimbo Jones Radio Mix)”
This
another banger! No more “Naté” for Ultra! Feelin’ tha BJ music on this one more
than most of tha other mixes they do. Gotta feel that music especially at tha
end of tha bridge when it does all that shit it does. Really tight! :tu :tu My Rating: 4.2
15.
South Side Crew “Free Falling (Radio Mix)”
It’s
statistically my Highest AL (along wit Linda O), but this one I got a lot of AL for. Will it be a new
style @ 128 BPM? I hope it sounds REAL good like tha previous 2 songs! 1…2…3…VERY HIGH AL!!!!!!!! Oh yeah I predict a remake of Tom Petty’s
“Free Fallin’”. >>> Nice for a start. And yeah, of course, just like
wit “Cold As Ice”, I guessed correctly wit tha remake. I like how I hear those
SSC sounds throughout tha whole song. I guess you can say best 128 BPM song for
this CD. Not only iz this “Free Falling”, but how odd; for tha August 2004
POSSD, Track No. 15 was Kat People “Free Falling” (which IMO was a lot better…
I had to say that). And I almost thought “Free Falling” was gonna come on MCD
as a “rare song”. That would’ve been REALLY weird (tha rare song right now iz
Joe T. Vannelli “Prelude” - How sad that that’s a rare song, and “Guilty” (which
was tha song that played just before that in heavy rotation still), somethin’
that’s from tha same CD (PODR7/07), iz still playin’…). Tha other 2 SSC songs
did okay, but hopefully if this gets out there, it gets more shine I hope. My Rating: 4.1
16.
DJ Antoine “This Time (Klaas U.S.
Radio Edit)”
I
think they spelled “Klass” wrong (they put “Klaas”) (EDIT: Nope, “Klaas” iz right). Either way, this shittin’ thing can
go… MCD just premiered a new song Michael
Mind “Ride Like The Wind” and it’s a Klaas remix. It sounded nearly tha
same, but I think that song iz better than this. I don’t like tha chorus in
this… What a terrible No. 16 song! I think sometimes if it’s not No. 16, it’s
either No. 15 or No. 17 that’s good. This case it’s No. 15. It’s mixed better
than tha Remix Radio Edit I have. I think they flipped tha music parts after
tha chorus from my RRE that I have. My
Rating: 2.1
17.
Hardrox “Feel The Hard Rock (Up To No Good) (Promo Only Clean Edit Radio Edit)”
Lol
@ tha 2 “Edits”. Can we get Janet Jackson over here to say “edit” for us? Lol
just playin’. I’m guessin’ dirty song No. 3 for this CD. And Nervous Records iz
in charge of this. They’ll prolly come through wit a good song. Oh yeah this iz
tha 2nd song (Song No. 17 no less) that I’m listening to for tha 1st
time @ 1:17 AM (Darnell birthday time) (1st song was “I’m Not
Featuring You”). >>> This iz gonna be odd. Uh oh… It sounds like
Gabriel & Dresden + Cedric Gervais music combination. How odd… This song iz
so weird. I like all those “shut up”s. :rofl My Rating: 3.8
18.
Jill Criscuolo “Insane (Masi & Mello Club Radio Mix)”
She’s
been on PO before, but maybe this one’ll do
good on a first listen. BTW, her last name might be tha same last name as my (I
think) 3rd grade teacher. :tu >>> Not bad for a start. I
hope I get to like it better… A lil’ odd on tha chorus (which iz like most of
them on here), but tha music sounds pretty good. I think I be feelin’ tha
verses tho. At least that’s a saver. Hope to feel it more in tha future ‘cause
it’s tryin’ to try and grow on me by every second. :tu My Rating: 3.8
19.
Gioia “Your Love Is Lifting Me (Higher & Higher) (Josh Harris Radio Edit)”
I
HOPE this comeback from former Expose member Gioia can keep tha CD fresh. High AL (might be tha last
one for this CD). >>> Looks like tha music sounds pretty good. Then
again, I dunno. Something sounds wrong wit this… I hate to say this, but I
think this iz tha problem: tha vocals are gettin’ repetitive, and it feels like
non-stop or somethin’. :( Those 3 songs from her last album “Expose This” from
2004 were a lot better than this. My
Rating: 3.5
20.
Annie Lennox “Sing (Moto Blanco Radio Edit)”
Oh
no… :td :td :td :td :td Just when I thought there would be some life… I don’t
expect a comeback from this either!! Very Low AL! >>> Reminds me of a Gospel
remix or somethin’. Tha music iz no less different a lil’ for MB, but nah, not
good enough for me. :td 2nd verse sounds a lot like Madonna… That
almost caught my attention, lol. My
Rating: 2.8
21.
David Guetta Feat. Cozi “Baby When The Light (U.K. Radio Edit)”
THIS
AIN’T NO “Goodnight Tonight”!!! BOOOOOOOOO!!!! All these songs gave me a
headache just now. :( :( :cry: Let’s see this remix… >>> Oh tha same
intro threw me off bad, but THIS was tha ORIGINAL one iPR played (and they said
they didn’t change their version; maybe I heard wrong ‘cause tha intro)! I
really like tha combo on this (from tha Album Version and tha Radio Edit). Nice
combo! :tu I was originally gonna rate it low, but due to tha unexpected combo,
I gotta give it a nice rating. My
Rating: 4.0
Overall: End Time: 1:46 AM. Wow it
took me almost 2.5 hours to do this… This CD was bad. I can’t believe it. It
didn’t even look good. Hell, it makes December 2007’s look MUCH better! I HOPE
February comes through wit some BANGERS, especially FAST ones!

Wow 9 songs had a 4.0 rating or higher… Wow… I thought there were like 4 or 5,
but 9? Anyway, :clap goes to The Cheetah Girls for having tha best new song I
never heard before. Not too many new songs up wit tha ratings unfortunately. :(
:( :( BIG UPS to “True Believer” and “What Hurts The Most” for MURDERING all
those other songs. Nothin’ beats FAST songs!! :tu :tu :tu
