"Being a dance teacher, college (student) dance club guru and a living promotion for the local gym, this album is great for those who like "remix" type songs and definite pulses in the beat of "8" to jam to. My intention for buying this CD was for "Forever Young." I heard another remix of it and wanted to find as many versions as possible - this one is just as excellent. It starts out slowly and then slides into the core of the dance floor tune it is!!! The lyrics are uplifting! Right away the album starts out with "Craving Your Love" a good song to get you moving. "Too Young For Promises" has a childhood inspiration to it backed up by steady bass, quick beats and a catchy chorus. "You Make Me Happy" is a fun warm-up, "Everything", "Let Me Take You Away", "Never Say Goodbye" and "I Never Needed" all pick up the pace, great for loud car stereo roadtrips or cardio kick boxing!! "Music is My Life" isn't as power-packed as the other tracks, but it's still good. "Do They Know It's Christmas?" is a bass-synthesizer remix of the original. It's catchy/perfect for a winter evening of ten cups egg-nog and too many cookies while rocking around the Christmas tree. It's nice for those who like alternative routes than the slow-jam carols. I highly recommend this tune. Tracks: 1,6,10,13 and 16 are short interludes the segue into the next song. They're decent and fit perfectly with the following track and theme of the CD. They catch you off guard at first, not something you'd probably expect, but that's what makes this entire CD just an all around album intended for dancing feet and non-stop inspirational jamming. Roll down those car windows and get movin'!"
