LOADED WITH HITS [2 CD Set]

26 Replies

TRACKLIST:

Loaded With Hits, released in 2000, was a fund-raising music CD where a portion of the profits went to support the T. J. Martell Foundation for for Leukemia, Cancer, and AIDS Research. I might quibble about how many of these songs are really “hits” but there’s certainly a variety of different musical styles on these two CDs. I’m a big fan of Sarah McLachan’s “Building a Mystery.” “Save Tonight” was a hit for Eagle-Eye Cherry. And we might see Lisa Loeb singing “I Do” in a future GEICO commercial. How many of these “hits” do you recognize? Any favorites? GRADE: B

    Hmmmm, not a collection that has much going for it. Most of the artists had bigger hits elsewhere. I do like “The Freshmen” and “C’est La Vie,” but other than that, not much grabs me.

        I also realized that the song titled “C’est La Vie” on this CD is NOT the song by the same title by Robbie Neville. I like Neville’s song, but I’d never heard (until five minutes ago) the song by B*witched—and that’s just as well because it’s awful.

    I recognize some of the “artists” names, but none I’ve ever listened to intentionally. No songs I’ve heard at all or, if I have, I don’t remember them. This is a new low, even for compilations.

    Nothing much here for me. A lot of boy band crap and artists aimed at the same audience. A few people I detest such as Celine Dion. A few artists I like but don’t recognize the songs-Tori Amos and Blondie. I would find better use of this disc as a frisbee. D-.

    I could hang it in my trees to prevent robins from building nests. I have My Fair Lady out there now and this could replace it. I have nothing against birds but the trees are ten feet from my house and the robins keep banging into my windows.

      Patti, I just knocked down a bird’s nest that was blocking one of our downspouts. We have a lot of birds here, too. And sometimes, we get those crazy birds that keep trying to fly through our windows!

    R. Kelly? Will Smith? The Spice Girls?

    Very hard pass. No, do not know any of the songs, nor would I consider listening to this. I do like the Lisa Loeb commercial, however,

    “Maria” is a pretty good post-comeback/reformation song from Blondie, but no, it’s not their best work…but this was pretty clearly What Was On The Shelf for the fundraising purposes.
