Customer Reviews

Songs that were learned and sung.... (2004-12-25)

A great band with an awful name. The material is worth a full 5 stars but we've kinda "been there done that" with their previous "best of" collection: Songs to Learn and Sing. Ballyhoo should have been a double CD collection to include missing tracks like "Puppet" and "Ocean Rain", not to mention some of their better remixes like "The Cutter". And Nick Hull needn't apologize for comparing them to Coldplay. Chris Martin is a self-admitted fan of Echo, and it definitely shows in Coldplay's second album. (Coldplay's b-side "Crests of Waves" is lyrically a sequel to Echo's "Ocean Rain" and stylistically classic Bunneymen). And let's not forget Coldplay's cover of "Lips Like Sugar".

That was cool (2003-10-03)

Don't know too much about that band but I used to listen a lot when I was a teenager.

His crooner voice is so awsome and music is cool (kind of gothic rock mixed with punk). Check out my favorites "Over the wall", "Killing moon" for the awsome voice or "Lips like Sugar".

Great intro to some great music... (2002-12-19)

I first heard "killing moon" in the movie "Donnie Darko" and I investigated a bit and found it and many other great tracks, by a precursor to bands like the flaming lips... Some songs remind me of coldplay. (I mean no insult, i'm a Canadian teenager who knows no better.) Anyway... good compilation to get you hooked before digging deeper. Get it and enjoy...
