Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

It's hard to believe that this contest has been running for nearly 50 years. It may be viewed as tongue in cheek pop music but The Eurovision Song Contest has survived all the jokes and jibes to become the longest running television show in history. Twenty three countries are participating in 2001's event, held in Copenhagen and all the national entries are featured here in their entirety.

As always there is a wealth of different genres all with a common thread, an un-definable ingredient making each sound similar to the last in one way or another. The quintessential Eurovision sound is no more apparent than on the single-syllable intro of Arnis Mednis' "Too Much" which morphs from Euro-pop to heavy rock then into what could be likened to early Steps. There are some commercial house tunes like "Energy" by Nusa Derenda and the UK entry "No Dream Impossible" by Lindsay Dracass. David Civera's Spanish entry, "Dole que la quiero" has the makings of a lambada-style summer smash hit but the stand-out track is Skamp's "You Got style" which sounds funky like a female Prince with an upbeat catchy chorus. --David Trueman

5.0 out of 5 stars Super!, 7 May 2001
This is a brilliant compilation, and I think that this is a great idea to place all of the Eurovision songs on general release. This year is no exception, with high impact, fast beat songs from the Uk, Slovenia, and ABBA-esque entries from Greece and Sweden. A nice mixture of ballads compliment the CD well (from France and the Netherlands). All-in-all, a great mixture and variety of songs, definitley an Album must for all Eurovision fans, and possibly even non-eurovision fans. Who said ALL of the music in Eurovision was bad?

5.0 out of 5 stars This isn't just Euro-pop, it's a multicultural phenomenon, 21 May 2001
By A Customer
Just check out Lithuania's fine effort, and tell me Eurovision is dead. I'm not even gay, and I loved the contest. Russia chipped in wiht a strange number, reminiscent of an iron curtain Placebo, while Denmark's cheesy lovefest almost stole the glory from Estonia. And the UKs entry was almost remarkably awful. A must have for eurovision followers, and those with a strong sense of irony alike.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the greatest ESC's in a long time., 7 May 2001
By A Customer
This year, Eurovision continues to move towards mainstream. Of the 23 tracks on the CD, 90% of them are great songs, and many have become hits in their respective countries. There's a nice mix of styles. Netherlands, Norway, France, Germany... have great ballads sung by very good singers. There's also a bit of retro feeling with Iceland, Estonia and Croatia going back in the past for something new. There's also a few very Eurovision songs, like Poland, Slovenia and UK, the latter two being tipped as favorites to win. Spain and Malta bring two very good Latin-style songs, while Greece and Bosnia introduce a bit of ethno feel. A very good CD and a very good Eurovision indeed. Order the CD, you won't regret it.
