"This Album RULES! I used to think it was crap before I listend to the whole sample. Then, my Dad bought it for me. It may not be
as great as Hampsterdance: The Album, but i think it is great.
Most pop singers sing about X rated stuff, but not this band.
Most bands have one style, but the Hampsters sing Dance, Pop,and
Country music. Great CD! Buy it. youl Like it!"
Hampsters are similiar to the chipmunks

The Happiest Album EVER!!!

"It's been exactly 3 years ago since I bought this happy album. Most of the songs are upbeat and make you want to dance. Other songs like "It's A Hampster Night" and "I'm Feelin' Happy" are in the Country music genre. All 11 tracks made me smile and I know you can count on Hampton, Hado, Dixie, and Fuzzy Neville to make you happy like me.
I heard about Happy Times Ten in a commercial on Radio Disney in 2003. The music was so much fun, and I think that Hampton and the Hampsters might be better than Alvin and the Chipmunks. The thing is, unlike the Chipmunks, the Hampsters don't have a TV show. The Hampsters even made me think of a show I saw on Cartoon Network at that time, Hamtaro. I'll bet the Ham-Hams would start dancing when they hear this music.
Here's what I think of each of their songs.
Sing A Simple Song: Ah yes, I'll never forget the very first time I heard that happy song. Just like "The Hampster Dance," it really gets you up and dancing. I first heard "Sing A Simple Song" on Radio Disney in November 2002.
Hi Ho Let Your Rhythm Flow: This is what I would say the fastest song in beat. It will make you want to, as they say in the song, "Swing your body high and low."
Get Happy: This is the happiest song of all! It really, really made me smile a lot when I heard it. I'll bet it will make you real happy too when you play this track. I loved it when Fuzzy said things in the song like, "Don't just sit there feeling sad." If ever you're feeling sad or down, play this happy song! It'll cheer you right back up.
Life Is Good: This is the slowest song of all on this album. Even though it had a slow beat, it had a really good message. Hado says that there are "... wonderful new things to discover" every day. It's true - I'll never forget the day I discovered Happy Times Ten. And yes, life is great now that I have Hampton and the Hampsters in my CD collection. I hope you'll feel the same way too when you hear their music.
Everybody Knows (That A Hampster Can't Sing): What a funny story! I loved that Country style of music in that song. I really like the way the Hampsters sing. Who would have thought that hampsters could sing so well.
In The Groove: It really gets you, well, in the groove! What else can you expect from a song that can make you get into the beat.
Do Ya Do Ya: I would have to say that this is the most danciest song of all! I can't control myself when I hear it! It really gets you movin'! You can really work up a sweat with this song as you exercise to it, along with most of the others on this CD. Hampster Dancin' to these tunes is a really great workout, so "Do ya do ya wanna dance?" Get up and boogie to this song!
I'm Feelin' Happy: This is one of the very first songs I ever heard from this album. As I was playing the audio samples on the web from the album before I bought it, I thought this song would be fun to listen to. And you know what? it sure was! I loved the feeling and the melody.
It's A Hampster Night: You will want to hampster dance country style to this tune. Turns out, Dixie is the Hampster that sings all the Country tunes on the album.
It's A Wonderful World: What a catchy tune! After you've heard the whole album, just remember that Hampton and the Hampsters will be with you wherever you go. They'll make your dreams come true when you think of them.
Hampsterdance (Dancin' With Hampton Remix): This bonus track sounds like the original "Hampster Dance Song," only with a different melody in the instrumental area. Also, there were new lyrics like this one: "Take two steps forward, hands up! Then shake it all about. Take two steps back, hands up! Then jump and shout..."
Also included on this CD is a totally cool music video of "Sing A Simple Song." Just load the CD in your computer and you'll be dancin' along with the Hampsters like crazy! The animation was really wild as I saw their video.
For each song and the music video, I give each a 10. Therefore, the entire album gets an overall Happy Times 10! What a perfect score for a perfectly happy album! Hampton and the Hampsters is a must-have group for the whole family to enjoy for dance parties or just for having fun. And I really hope that someday in the future Hampton, Hado, Dixie, and Fuzzy will have their very own TV show which features their happy music.
So, what are you waiting for? Get happy with Happy Times Ten!!! Also, don't forget to visit their web site for more hampsterific fun."
