Free Music Notes for Best of

Free Music Review: 5,6,7,8...Bye. Bye? Is that it, then?
Hit: 5 Stars

Hearing the original version of "One For Sorrow" instead of the U.S. edit that was on the Step One album, well, it isn't that different. It just lacks the opening blast of positive pop that permeates throughout the album. The backbeat is mellower compared to the other version, but it's still listenable.

With most of the hits concentrated from Step One (8), and Buzz (2), one from their first album, and 2 new songs, the compilation is tight. The nod to old school disco of "Stomp," the country-stepping "5,6,7,8," the 80's-Kylie bop of "Deeper Shade Of Blue," and the Jessica Simpson-ish or Britneyesque "It's The Way You Make Me Feel" are just a few of the hits concentrated in this collection.

Of the new songs, they cover the Bee Gees again with "Chain Reaction" and it doesn't disappoint. "Words Are Not Enough" is a mid-paced number that's a pleasant finisher to the album.

Well, they didn't get in trouble like Smoke Bowl 7 and they quit before they started hating each other like the Beatles or Spice Girls, so give them some credit for going out early. Bye guys, and thanks for the music.
