classic cd.......2007-03-11

One of Benny Mordones better cds, with his biggest hit INTO THE NIGHT. Also on this cd is the song TOO YOUNG, This cd has a little bite. This cd is worth getting.

ahhhhhhh...memories............2006-02-01

I will admit to a bias where Benny Mardones is concerned. I am originally from Syracuse, NY, and from 1980-1984 no one, and I mean no one, could sell out any venue in town faster than Benny. To grow up in Syracuse at that time and not know who Benny Mardones was is akin to not knowing Springsteen since Born in the USA. Benny was most definately the biggest fish in our pond then.
This album was mandatory. No, it was more important than that. It was life or death. We all knew every song, and most of us still do. I know I will never sing Hold Me Down the way I did as a teenager (not that I sang that song great then, but I tried), and I will never again be that teenager looking at the stage as he croons Into The Night. The memories are still there.
Musically, this album rocks a lot harder than Into the Night would suggest. Hold Me Down is just boundless energy, Shes So Frech is deliberate but heavy, and the rest of the album is just fun and rock n roll.
Now if they would only re-release Too Much To Lose........

A One Hit Wonder -- Twice.......2005-07-11

This one hit wonder from Maryland got a total of 30 minutes of fame. The first round came when "Into the Night" climbed to #11 on the US singles chart in the autumn of 1980. Nearly nine years later a second set of 15 minutes rolled his way when the same version became a hit all over again peaking at #20 in the summer of 1989. (An attempt by Mardones to cash in on this second chance be rerecording the song failed when that version did not chart).

The song can be something of a guilty pleasure if you don't pay too much attention to it. It kind of sounds like either a third rate Springsteen knockoff, or an actually halfway decent Meat Loaf tune (not that such an animal exists, mind you). That almost surreal cross turns out to be the song's undoing though, as it causes you to pay closer attention at which point you realize it is about a grown man lusting, and rather openly I might add, over a 16 year old girl and you end up with major case of the creeps.

A Rockin' Good Listen!.......1999-12-12

Benny Mardones really rocks! On fast tunes, ballads, whatever. Every song on 'Never Run Never Hide' is excellent; I can't choose a favourite but obviously 'Into The Night' is a classic. 'Hold Me Down' and 'Hey Baby' are close contenders but really they ALL tie for top place. Brilliant drums by Sandy Gennaro too! Check it out or miss out.......

There'll Never Be Good-Bye (The Theme Of Metropolis)

Amazon.com

A dazzling and atypical musical score is the perfect tone for the gorgeous visuals of this anime film. Toshiyuki Honda's Dixieland jazz-influenced music is a daring counter to the futuristic vision of the three-tiered, near-robotic society. The title track is reminiscent of Woody Allen's theme for his futuristic film Sleeper. Half of Honda's score uses more characteristic orchestrations for several of the films' action scenes and the love theme ("Sympathy," which is later reorchestrated in the so-so end-credit song "There'll Never Be Good-Bye"). This is one of the indispensable anime soundtracks, and wonderful listening for even the non-anime fan. One demerit for the CD not containing Ray Charles's "I Can't Stop Loving You." The song beautifully counterpoints the explosive conclusion and is a vital part of the whole music score. --Doug Thomas

Album Description

The future of robots and humans . . . as predicted by Osamu Tezuka.

Based on the classic comic by legendary illustrator Osamu Tezuka, Metropolis has been brought to the screen by two of the most respected figures in Japanese animation today (Katsuhiro Otomo and Rintaro).

Metropolis is a futuristic story of the ageless class struggle, not amongst humans, but between humans and the humanoid, set in a futuristic city at the height of its civilization. Spectacularly rendered in its visual style, it combines the best in Japanese animation with the latest in digital technology.

The original soundtrack is composed by Toshiyuki Honda and the music blends the New Orleans & Dixie style jazz with classical music.

Fantastic.......2005-10-01

This CD is perfect for any of those out there who loved the movie "Metropolis" like i did. The soundtrack is wonderful giving in to that '30s type jazzy feel that goes along with the whole private detective era and the fast techno type music to give it that futuristic feel. Great combination of both. This CD is a fantastic buy.

For people who loved the movie and jazz fans alike.......2004-04-05

There are two different types of tracks in this CD: there are those that sound like a movie soundtrack (in other words, you might need to have seen the movie to get the picture), and there are tracks that are downright great jazz. I played this at my home, and my father was tapping his feet to the opening theme.

This jazz is not the "smooth jazz" you hear in book stores. This is the kind of jazz you can imagine played at night clubs during the 30's, with musicians gathering together to play simply for the sake of music. From the opening "Metropolis" to the whacky "El Bombero" and the drumming "Run" this is music you can simply enjoy. If you haven't seen the movie, but you like jazz or the blues, then by all means buy this CD. Except for "St. James Infirmary" this is all original music, and the people who worked on it are gods of music themselves.

Buy it, pop it in, listen, and let the music take you over.

WONDERFUL AND STRANGE.......2003-06-25

THis is a superb soundtrack for a neat movie. The movie is loosely based on the 1926 sci-fi Metropolis (but with less of a moral point) and is supposedly some kind of breakthrough in anime cartoons. The music is strange because it is all American - jazz, ragtime, etc, but done by Japanese musicans and very authentic. Cool as heck!

like the JAZZ.......2003-06-02

I love the jazz its great i saw the movie in theaters 3 times and i have it and watched it like 4 times. its so like jazzY honda did a great job composing it. Ilove it.Its a masterpeice get it NOW!. p.s the movie yeah parents cautioned violince some things not mature for kids

Nice!.......2002-05-17

This is a very nice album. I loved the music while watching the movie. I finally got it when I was in the CD store last night. I wish they could include "I can't stop loving you", and improve the recording a bit. Overall a very very nice album with mixed type of music.

I recommand it wholeheartly.
