Search - David Hasselhoff :: Sings America

Don't take this too seriously.

"I like this CD. You have to NOT take it seriously, though. To do so is silly. To like this album, one must have an appreciation for the obsurd. The singing is bad and the music is corny... but that's what makes this so much fun to listen to. I happen to believe that there's a place for really bad music. I'm a Gunther fan, and this ranks right up there with him on my top five favorite bad CD's of all time.

If you don't take this CD seriously, appreciate the obsurd, or are a Hasselhoff fan, then it's really worth buying. You'll have fun with it. I did.

Otherwise if you're not into wierd stuff, or aren't a Hasselhoff fan, don't waste your time."

Excellent Pop Melodic Tour of America, Thanks to the Hoff

"I greatly enjoyed Mr. Hasselhoff's personal selections -- and so will you. Although he is a good singer, his voice was slightly strained on the very low opening notes of "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling." The country-western dialect he used in several songs sounded natural. My favorite song (outside of "New York, New York") is first on the album -- City of New Orleans -- because I am a daily commuter on the Long Island Railroad!

The song lyrics in the booklet were helpful but out of sequence with the record. The accompanying photos were most attractive for obvious reasons; but one with a representation of an American Flag on a horse's head seemed inappropriate.

On the other hand, I enjoyed the inclusion of "America" from West Side Story as well as the "Knight Rider" theme. The Christmas music was a delightful bonus. Glad to have this edition in my collection."
