Unbelievable February 9, 2004 joe (St. Louis) 14 out of 16 found this review helpful
This album is--from the bizarre "see my misdirected somber appearance at the wise age of 8-15" cover photo to the actual content of the disc--an embarassment of immense proportions to the recording, music, and academic industries, as well as to the collective cultural health of the globe. The Back Street Boys are bad enough on their own--to hear them "interpreted" by one of the most prestigious a capella ensembles in history is to be stripped of one's dignity. And I'm just talking about the listener. The members of the administrative team (there's no point in blaming the singers who probably understood the shame in providing their exquisite voices to this disaster but were powerless to plead otherwise) that greenlighted this project should be hanging their heads low enough that even the most inflexible of humans is not deprived the opportunity of delivering a swift kick to the skull of at least one of these idiots.
wow - THAT was something! October 31, 2005 BoxerLuv (Woodstock,IL) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I got this as a gift because my friend saw a holiday cd with Vienna Boys Choir at my house. My advice:listen to the music previews before you buy the cd. It's too freaky for me. Good Luck.
What horrid crap! October 28, 2005 Lan D (Houston, TX United States) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
My God! I think I'm going to die. If you are sick and ailing stay away from this album; it will kill you, put you right over. If you're healthy it'll make you so ill you'll want to die. Such beautiful voices in the service of such dreadful material. Lord, help us!!
Not their style March 30, 2006 P. Pratt (pittsburgh, pa) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I was expecting something a lot better. One can't fault the choir for the recording. The fault lies with the director, arranger, and producer. The instrumental accompaniment over shadowed the boys singing. The arrangements of each song was too similar, and the boys sounded too restrained for this style. Pop is not the musical style of the Vienna Boys Choir. They need to stick what they do best - classical and sacred music.
A must-have for wretched-cover fans like me September 18, 2003 Paul Schleuse (NYC & Binghamton, NY) 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
Trashy, kitschy, and horrible... and I love it. While the boys arguably do a better job with that dreadful Titanic song than Celine Dion, the real standouts here are the cringe-worthy covers of "Burning Down the House" and "Get Down." The faceless euro-pop arrangements only add to the utter oddness of the album--it's like the perverse antithesis of the Langley Schools Music Project.
