A Must Have- Even Just For Sexy Boy(s)

"If you saw any of the promos last year for Showcase's viewing of Queer as Folk, there was just no way to get the song out of your mind. More than the promise of uncensored, or 'gay life, straight up," or even the sight of these hot guys getting down in club, it was the ethereal voice breathing 'sexy boy' and that pulsating beat. Even if you were so foolish as to never tune in to the series, that melody was in your mind forever.If you missed the series- which was a huge hit in Britain and then in Canada- or were turned off by the recent pathetic American attempt at a watered-down and mainstreamed remake, you'll still be captivated by the music of this album. True, it's dance tracks, and those have never been my thing; but whether the hypnotic 'sexy boy' or the bouncy tapping of the theme, it has the kind of tunes that creep into you in a way you just can't resist. And then you hum them for days.Of course, for those of us who were enthralled by the series, it makes us remember all these fascinating and wonderful people in insane situations, and then you'll have twice the smile on your face. You're bopping to a good tune, and remembering good friends, who were just as irresistible. The only thing better than owning this album will be buying the DVD of the series, which they better hurry up and release..."

"I thought I was buying the 2 CD set, so was rather disappointed when I received the one with only 1 CD.
The 2 CD set includes the track, Hold That Sucker Down, probably the best track on the set. Without this song to listen to, I find the single CD rather a waste of money."

"It's Fab Baby! If you like 80's Eurobeat you'll love this album. It's the ultimate in good time music. You can't help but feel good listening to tracks like The Key The Secret by Urban Cookie Collective or Uh La La La by Alexia. I listen to it in my car on the way to work and it makes me feel like I can accomplish anything. For an instant dose of "Dancing Queen Juice" buy this album."
