"The Marvelous 3 is (heh, was - they went their separate ways awhile back) one of my absolute all time favorite bands. A friend of mine dragged me to their concert several years ago in Gainesville, FL. It was hands down the best concert I ever went to! I bought their CD after that and just fell in love. There are very few CDs that I can honestly say I like every track on it, this is one of the few! My favorite song is the first track, Little Head - the lyrics are hysterical! There is a good mix of fast/upbeat songs and slower ballads. Beautiful has to be one of the best love songs I've heard as well, the lyrics to that are really just heart-warming. The band is really sensational, I highly recommend. :)"

"Butch Walker is and forever will be my HERO! He has such stage presence and I keep hoping for that Press Release announcing that the Marvies are back together....Until then, I wear this CD OUT! It's as good if not better than "Hey Album!" and mixes the riffs that we all know and love from the Marvies with AWESOME lyrics.I'm a "child of the 80's hair bands" and this CD rocks your socks off. Definitely on my Top 5 list of CD's to listen to for the rest of my life.I'm a MARVIE forever...what can I say...."
Fun Rock n Roll - Pure And Simple

"First of all, I cut my teeth on classic rock/metal from the late 70's and through the 80's. This was recommended to me by Amazon - Thank You! This is without a doubt the best album I have purchased in years. It has great songs throughout - not just one or two good songs. The songs have great hooks and the lyrics are excellent; "Hell's not cold I know, 'cause I've been there for the last half hour or so, and the Devil says it never snows." There are too many great songs to mention; some are Cold As Hell, Grant Park, Get Over and Supernatural Blonde. As everyone says in other reviews - these guys should have been huge."
A crazy rock album for the new Century

"This ablum came out in late 2000. THis album should have caught fire, but it did only fair in the rock arena. I am completely suprised that it didn't burn up the airwaves more because its hard edge with great song lyrics and flavor of a more poppy punk. I think now of how Bowling for soup has taken off, and this should have done the same. But alas, the boys broke up after this effort, and of course Butch Walker (lead singer of Marvelous 3) has helped with the last 2 bowling for soup efforts resulting in a grammy nomination. The first five song on this album just kick tail, and the rest of the songs are great as well, but you get worn out by the first songs. Its an album that you could leave in the CD player for days (to lazy to change discs) and not care because it still rocks every time. So if you are a rock fan, and especially if you like Bowling for soup, then this album is for you. Crank it, good party tunes."
