Worth the money for "Just Got Lucky" and "Emotion" December 3, 2003
5 out of 6 found this review helpful
Volume 11 of the New Wave Dance Hits series is an excellent collection of great 80's rock mixing some of the biggest new wave hits with other lesser known but still strong tracks. The tracks "99 Luftballons", "True", "Talking In Your Sleep", and "One Thing Leads To Another" were all Top 5 singles in the early 80's. Of these tracks, only "One Thing..." has stood the test of time as it still gets regular airplay on modern rock radio. As with many of the albums in this series, it's the lesser known tracks that truly stand out. Some of these include the driving "In A Big Country", the moody "Send Me An Angel", the excellent pop of "Black Coffee In Bed", and the hyperactive track "The Fanatic." But the best tracks here, and the reason to pick up this album, are the tracks "Just Got Lucky", quite simply an excellent pop song that should have made JoBoxers huge, and "Emotion", a track by DFX2 which sounds reminiscent of Greg Kihn Band but is more danceable with its killer bass line. Other solid tracks include "Change", "Jukebox (Don't Put Another Dime)", and "Shiny Shiny." The rest of the album is pretty decent too. A great compliation. Highly recommended.

I first bought this cd just for Big Country and Nena, but I found myself enjoying Tears for Fears and The fixx and and Joe Boxer and some other songs that I didn't know I new until i heard it on the Cd. I jock 80's music though so i appreciate any music from that era. good cd overall
Another Cool Collection from Rhino ! August 23, 2001

Another strong collection in Rhino's New Wave Hits series. Great stuff like Jo Boxers' "Just Got Lucky" and the super cool "Fanactic" by Felony. Add some classic cuts from Squeeze, The Fixx and Big Country and it all adds up to a very worthy collection. Overall, great fun stuff from a time when music was catchy, clever and optimistic. If you grew up in the 80's, chances are you'll dig this CD as well as the others in this great series.
some good "hard to find " songs in here! December 23, 1998

i have a lot of "various artists" cd's, but this is one of my favorites. it has one of my favorite songs of all time on it("president am i"). that song, (as well as a few others on it,"jukebox","the fanatic","shiny shiny") are hard to find on cd. this collection of songs takes me back everytime i play it. the best vol. of the series in my opinion. give it a try!
