I’m
back and even though this CD has been shipped real late, it’s here!!! :) And I
feel so bad delaying it an extra day. That’s ‘cause I had college ‘til 10:00 PM
yesterday and I was tired/I wanted to do this during tha late afternoon. But
now I’m here (got off at 4:00 PM) and ready for this! I feel real anticipated
for it!! Here goes tha long awaited review for Promo Only Dance Radio September 2008!! Start Time: 5:55 PM | Video
Game Playing: Blast Corps (for Nintendo 64) (on my computer)
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.

© 2008 CD Review (Review #113) reviewed on 9.04.2008 by FrankieThaLuckyDog.
01. Laurent Wolf Feat. Eric Carter “No Stress (Radio Edit)”
At
first I thought it was a girl (‘cause of tha “Lauren” in tha name) but no, it’s
a producer (Laurent Wolf) featuring (which PO
left out) a guy (Eric Carter). I would’ve liked tha song better if it was a
girl but it’s just okay. Tha only thing great about this song iz tha great
lyrics and somewhat good music. Due to tha topic of tha song, I think it’s
gonna be a REAL BIG song in tha dance world! My Current Rating: 3.7
02.
Cascada “Faded (Wideboys Electro Radio Edit)”
Oh
no a PO fuck up mix. :( Really, NOBODY should
remix Cascada UNLESS you can remix their songs FAST. I don’t like any of this
watered-down Cascadaness. Cascada = fast & tight to me. I like tha Wideboys
a lot but this mix ain’t nothin’. Tha original iz a lot better. Tha only thing
I go for iz tha “fit me in a perfect box” parts that come on a lot. Glad tha
original went pop and too bad MCD started it wit this f’d up mix. :td My Current Rating: Album Version: 4.4 | This Mix: 3.2
03.
LoveShy “Gotta Love For You (Radio Edit)”
Tha
1st newbie for me and I’m excited and anticipated… Gots AL on this
and whether or not it’s a cover to tha ‘90s song, I’m gonna try and feel this,
especially since it’s from Next Plateau! >>> It iz a cover and sounds
great. Tha girls on this sound nice and hot and that music iz bangin’! Great
way to cover a song (or should I say “dance vs. dance” one). My Rating: 4.4
04.
BenDJ Feat. Sushy “Me & Myself (Wolfgang Gartner Remix Edit)”
Wonder
what this’ll be like… >>> I like that beat so that’s a plus. It had a
great intro. Tha vocals are pretty good so far. I like tha words about tha
“jungle.” This doesn’t sound like anything out right now so you know what it
gets from me… a PLUS. :tu Surprised it’s No. 4 on this CD ‘cause tha more
“mainstream sounding” songs come first. My
Rating: 4.2
05.
Buzz Junkies Feat. Elesha Moses “If You Love Me (Thomas Gold Radio Edit)”
Heard
it on MCD and before I looked at tha ID, I thought it was Amanda Wilson singin’.
Saw on Perfect Beat that it’s a remake and I think it’s good. >>> I’m
glad I have my stereo loud right now ‘cause it makes tha review better. Tha
vocals are great and tha chorus iz tight, along wit that beat! My Rating: 3.9
06.
Tami Chynn Feat. Akon “Frozen (Ralphi Rosario Radio Edit)”
Heard
it on MCD also but iPR got it a month earlier. >>> This sounds like it
has a slightly different intro than MCD. It’s still hot though. Compared to
that one song she had in 2006 that was over tha Sean Paul “We Be Burnin’” beat,
this sounds a lot hotter and better! She even looks good too. :) And I can’t
agree wit that title right now ‘cause it was 96 degrees out today!! MCD doesn’t
have that Akon part on tha bridge. Go PO and
BOO to MCD! I like when Akon says tha “got you on ice” parts during tha chorus.
Real bangin’ music in this! My Rating: 4.0
07.
Natasha Bedingfield “Angel (Moto Blanco Radio Edit)”
Even
though it’s MB and their same beats, at least this iz long and faster (129 iz
fast for them, lol). Glad they got a remix for this song so fast. I like those
“A-N-G-E-L”s after tha chorus. Really feelin’ this remix a lot! My Rating: 4.0
08.
Fawni “Chasing Cars (LTMP Edit)”
I’m
really glad they chose this mix (that MCD plays a lot) over tha original (which
iz slow at 127 BPM). MCD really loves this song as when they first got it, it
was on AT LEAST 5 times that day!! And she’s a hottie! :) Gotta feel tha music
when tha chorus comes in and somethin’ about it that it’s just great! Glad MCD
just got that through their brain. :tu My
Current Rating: 4.3
09.
Jo De La Rosa “U Can’t Control Me (Jason Nevins Funkrok Radio Mix)”
Hopefully
tha consistentness doesn’t stop… This song only has 90 BPM… *GULP* Not really
havin’ tha AL for it even though tha AL points came up to 19
when I did tha preview… Statistics don’t prove it all tha time… >>> It’s
a girl… Wow how unexpected… That rockness in tha beat iz odd too. It’s good for
a pop song too. Wonder how it’ll do in tha mainstream/dance scene? I like it.
Great vocals (she must be hot)! My
Rating: 4.0
10.
Jamie Jo “U Turn Me On (Maurice Joshua Nu Soul Radio Edit)”
Hope
this iz a girl too but tha mix loses my AL
‘cause I don’t really like tha “nu soul” mixes/I think they’re just decent.
Let’s see… >>> Yeah tha beat iz too plain/soulish but it gives me a
feel to give it a chance. Tha vocals are pretty good and tha chorus iz not bad.
I’ll give credit to this song/mix. My
Rating: 3.8
½time: It’s a very good start so
far. I expect there to be just as good at tha end!!
11.
Flanders “Behind (Callea Radio Mix)”
Oh
I forgot this was coming up!!! Lots of AL
for this song!! Hope it’s as good as “By My Side”!! >>> I love tha
beginning so far wit that slow intro/slow verse and now I hear tha beat towards
tha 1:00 mark. Pretty hot so far! Lookin’ forward to hearin’ what’s next! I’m
now LOVIN’ that slow part again!! This iz a start to tha 2nd ½ right
here!! Hope it does get tha recognition as “By My Side” did! Two different
songs and this one iz just too good! :) My
Rating: 4.7
12.
Kreesha Turner “Don’t Call Me Baby (Bimbo Jones Radio Edit)”
It’s
signed to Capitol Music Group, tha same label as Katy Perry, Kylie Minogue and
some pop artists. Took a quick listen on YT and it sounds like tha original had
some BPM/sounded dance. This could be more of a comeback for Dance music in tha
mainstream maybe (look @ Katy Perry’s new song, “Hot N Cold”. Nice 132 BPM
song)! And no, it’s not a cover up to Madison Avenue so we’ll see what tha
Bimbo dudes did to this! >>> Glad it’s got a REAL NICE beat in tha
beginning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEAH!!!! I’m feelin’ it and it’s a pretty cool song so
thumbs up. Nice hook too and (of course) that beat! I don’t even have to need
to rehear tha original now that I know that this iz REAL HOT!! My Rating: 4.6
13.
Lindsay Lohan “Bossy (Mike Rizzo Funk Generation Radio Mix)”
A
lil’ oldie… Had tha original in May (exclusively). MCH was all over tha
original and now it’s gone. Nobody plays… I guess it’s now time for it to go
into tha dance world wit this remix. Liked tha original a lot so hopefully a
great remix! >>> Great intro (didn’t quite sound like him at first).
Great comeback for Lindsay too (too bad it didn’t get too much exposure in tha
pop world as MCH only had). Oh yeah and Ne-Yo did a good job writing this song.
Great remix again! Wow tha 2nd ½ of this CD ain’t bullshittin’ right
now!! Great shit! My Rating: 4.3
14.
Alex Gaudino Feat. Shena “Watch Out (Radio Edit)”
I
know this an oldie in tha UK
but now in tha US,
Ultra has this so we’ll see what happens… Been dying to hear it and tha 2 of
them should do REAL GOOD on this song!! High AL!! >>> Really likin’ tha
beginning and that sample (whatever it iz; “Feel Better” used tha same one)!
:tu Yeah I KNEW she was “guilty” of makin’ ANOTHER HOT SONG!!! Really love
tha music and those “WATCH OUT!!!”s! :tu :tu Late or not, fuck it! It’s tight!!
My Rating: 4.8
15.
Mark Brown Feat. Sarah Cracknell “The Journey Continues (Vocal Radio Edit)”
REAL
GLAD they put this on here… But what’s tha label? This CD lists it as “Promo
Only” on their site (LOL). MCD and MCE got different mixes but this original
version iz tha real deal! Remember that HUGE “Lightning Strikes Twice” song by
Saint Etienne I loved and played to death 2 years ago? Well, Sarah Cracknell iz
tha lead singer of Saint Etienne so I had to have AL when I first heard it and it’s hot!
*Listens while writes* Great vocals, music and that NICE chorus wit tha “rain
came down” parts. Really feelin’ it (even though tha title doesn’t appear in
tha song). Really feelin’ that title though! Hopefully people get on this
original version (like iPR or someone else) ‘cause it’s what matters here! Nice
ending too to end a song! My Current
Rating: 4.4
*Grabs
dinner and prepares for tha moment I’ve been waiting for… No. 16!!!!!!!!!!!!!*
16.
Paradise “See The Light (Radio Edit)”
Got
my bets on this song right here!!! HUGE 141 BPM (and Thrive/ThriveDance on tha
signing so that’s different for them) and I got tha AL points for this!! It had tha same as tha AL I had for “Goodnight Tonight” by DJ Scotty K &
Knockhopper (20 AL
points) so that’s REAL BIG right there!! EXTREME amount of AL for this one! Don’t care if it’s remake
or not!!! >>> Sounds like Celine Dion in tha beginning. What will
happen? I hear a lil’ Cascada music here!! That chorus iz REAL good and tha
part after that was REAL TIGHT!! Wow this iz on some HOT SHIT!!! My Rating: 4.8
17.
Saving Jane “Supergirl (Too Kool Chris Hands Up Radio Edit)”
Shouldn’t
that be “too” in tha mix name (‘cause too = a lot)? But this’ll prolly be better
than Jason Nevins’s mix (which was just okay). Hope it’s a HOT 140 BPM mix and
not a garbage one!! >>> Ooh cool a weird beat intro so far… What’s
gonna happen? I like this, but it ain’t close to that “See The Light” song that
just was on here. I don’t think any dance stations are gonna play this. I think
MCH gon get this. Cool mix. My Rating: 4.2
18.
Jerry Ropero Feat. Cozi “The Storm (Inpetto Remix Edit)”
*Starts
singin’ and thinks of MCD* “I need a miracle, I need a miracle… And you’re
hearin’ what I say…” My God, they fuckin’ loved that Fragma 2008 remix. But
now, we got this HOT title wit Cozi singin’ it (could be 3rd banger
from her?) wit Inpetto on tha mix so this should be real interesting! Got my
high AL right
now waiting! >>> Tha intro iz tight and I’m glad to hear Inpetto
remixin’ other shit than “Toca’s Miracle” and that chorus was HOT and tha beat
after it iz REAL HOT!!! Sounds like an Adam K & Soha or deadmau5 effect!!
:tu GREAT vocals and I LOVE how tha song ended wit tha word “embrace.” HOT
SHIT!! My Rating: 4.5
19.
Katy Perry “I Kissed A Girl (Jason Nevins Original Radio Edit)”
*Sigh*
More old shit… *Waits to hear Georgie Porgie’s song FINALLY* Had this remix in
June (so did iPR) but mines was only 134 BPM and this iz 139 BPM. They couldn’t
throw her new song, “Hot N Cold”, on here (they had to do an “oldie”)? There’s
a commercial on MTV Hits promoting a “Totally Dance 2008” CD featuring a lot of
Rap/R&B/Pop songs that are upbeat and then tha 1st song that
comes on iz this remix so that’s a good look. Anyway, I fuckin’ loved this song
so much and my 4 year old brother Dylan started singin’ it (1st song
he eva sung) so lemme hear where these extra 5 BPMs are coming from…
>>> LOL @ tha music. It sounds like MCE music and it’s different… This
izn’t tha same mix I had… My mix was better (and it was from Jason Nevins too,
lol; his “Rock The Club” mix). It sounds good though. MCE should get it ‘cause
it sounds like one of their 2003 rare songs. They don’t really get a pop
artist’s remix anyway so this’ll prolly be somethin’ no one iz gonna play. My Rating: 4.3
20.
Eric Prydz Presents Pryda “Pjanoo (Radio Edit)”
ANOTHER
oldie?? LOL!! This CD iz mixed wit REAL HOT shit along wit OLDIES!! I had this
in April ‘cause Party 105 was IC’ing it as a PICK. I played it ONLY in May and
now all of a sudden, Party 105 put it on their playlist. Originally on Eric
Prydz’s Pryda label and now on Ultra. And PO
left out tha “Presents Pryda” part ‘cause that’s what I saw when I found this
song. Anyway, good electronic trance wit a “pjanoo” (lol). Tha RE I have was 40
seconds longer around so we’ll see what happened wit this RE. >>> Tha
intro I had started wit tha “pjanoo” and this one had a different start but
still was good. This RE sounds great, especially since all tha music kicks in
‘cause wit tha one I had, it took like a minute and 15 seconds. Sounds a lot
better than tha RE I had. Good job Ultra for signin’ and for this song havin’
some life now! My Rating: 4.3
21.
Georgie Porgie “Can You Feel That Sound (Josh Harris’ Radio Mix)”
Finally
up to this song!! After they collaborated on “I Believe”, I know I wanna hear a
new Georgie Porgie song, especially since JH iz remixin’ it again! Very high AL!! >>> YES
GOOD SHIT RIGHT HERE!!! Great way to end tha CD!! At least GP ain’t afraid to
sing tha song (and not have a DJ featuring him). Tha beat iz real hot and tha
chorus iz tight too! I actually like this a lot better than “I Believe” and I’m
glad JH was tha one that was special enough to remix this! Great shit!! My Rating: 4.6
Overall: End Time: 7:52 PM. WHAT
AN UNBELIEVABLE CD!!! WOW that whole 2nd ½ was ALL SONGS I loevd wit
at least a 4.0 rating or higher!!!!!!! Only 1 bullshit song on this CD (tha
“Faded” remix; they should’ve had tha original on here)!! I think this was
statistically tha highest rated CD (especially on averge) I’ve had on PO CDs so
far! I knew this was gonna be a classic and just delaying it made it better!!
Last year’s September CD was REAL HOT and this iz just as HOT, only more
mainstreamish but still REAL HOT!!
