WOW 1999

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
The newest in the Wow series of contemporary Christian music is as slick-sounding and solid as its successful predecessors. The two-disc set begins with a solid alterna-anthem (DC Talk's plaintively overwrought but super-catchy "Into Jesus") and ends with a kiss (Fernando Ortega's inspiring, Nashville-tinged "Lord of the Eternity"). The compilation's 33 tracks really do run the gamut: the polished, pure pop of Avalon and Point of Grace; Christian swing music; the atmospheric, spiritual sounds of Maire Brennan and Jaci Velasquez; the spirited belting of rocker Jennifer Knapp; a dance-pop act from the U.K.; the veteran confessional singer-songwriter folk of Amy Grant; Christian ska; and the late Rich Mullins's moving, visionary gospel-folk. CCM stalwarts and newcomers alike will be pleased by this release. --Mike McGonigal --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.

Best WoW CD up to that Time!.......2005-04-08

I have been a big customer of this CD series. I have bought every one of them from 1996-2005. The first few CDs in the series were not that great, because they would have a few contemporary christian songs and then they had a whole bus load of the crummy Gospel music. However, the WoW 1999 was the first year where they really said o.k. lets lose the gospel and stick to the contemporary rock/pop/alternative/rap Christian music. This set includes Third Days wonderful song "Agnus Dei" originally recorded by Michael W. Smith, Third Day takes it into a new genre Rock. Then there is The W's The Devil is Bad a hip swing tune about the temptation of the devil in our lives. Then we have one of the first appearances of Nichole Nordeman and Jeniffer Knapp.

To tell you the truth, if the company who puts out this series had not put this album out, I would not have bought another WoW CD simply because Gospel is not my kind of Music. However, because this CD was released I have continued buying into this franchise and I have been very pleased with every album since. Thank you for reading my review!

One of the Better Wow's.......2005-03-03

This is one of the best Wow's ever made. It is such a random compilation that it actually works. There were some great bands back then. Three of my favorites Christian Artists, Smalltown Poets, Newsboys, and dc Talk all make an appearance on this stellar album.

A Great WOW for your collection.......2004-03-07

The only reason this album doesn't get 4 stars, is the inclusion of a few songs that I didn't feel mixed well into the collection. Namely, "His Cheeseburger." Don't get me wrong, the Veggietales are great, but the song on its own doesn't make much sense without the video.

However, the album is terrific regardless. It features one song that I am surprised didn't get more airplay "Strollin' on the Water". A very unique sound, that really resonates the longing to take those leaps of faith with Christ. To be fearless for God.

The Best of The WOW Ever.......2002-08-23

This is by far the number one WOW cd of all times. Its got some of the best bands ever on it, like the Newsboys,DC Talk(Before they broke up), Smalltown Poets, Jars of Clay, and Supertones. What a combination! The WOW cds are a great alternative to burning cds. Why do you burn cds? so that you can get all of your favorite songs on one cd. WOW allready has most of my favorite songs on it. So I can legally listen to them. What a great idea!

GREAT First tape............2001-07-24

I absolutly love the first tape/c.d. in this set, the songs are well aranged to compliment and contrast each other. It's uplifting to listen to, and I never hit the skip button. However....the second tape, I don't like at all, and never even listen to anymore, I don't think the songs sound good together, and I just don't think they're as good as the first tape. But, in the end, I'd have to say that the first tape is worth paying for the full set.

Great album!.......2007-03-07

Well worth the money. I am so happy I purchased this one. I love the variety of artists on the album. And, the songs are really uplifting.

When will we sing the new song.......2002-08-27

I like this song, especially the halleluiah part, I feel very blessed singing, our group are trying to sing it during our outreach programme, but we are trying to find the lyrics of the song so we could sing it, we love the halleluiah part as it makes us feel very close to God, my big sister bought the cd but it doesnot have the words. so even though we dont know all the words we love and enjoy singing it.

It Rocks!!! Bow Down to the Indians..............2001-06-25

Hey, to all you out there! The second I heard this CD I wanted it. I was listening to it while at my dad's house. It has a great spiritual feeling. It made me want to get up and Jingle dance. This CD made me even more want to get involved with my culture and social activities. I rate it a 5***** record.

Gathering of the Nations.......2001-03-12

I was fortunate enough to attend the Gathering of the Nations in Albuquerque in 1999 while on vacation. I went to a dance festival and was mesmerized by the powerful culture of the Native American cultures in attendance: their drums, singing, and dancing. As soon as I heard this CD was out, I bought it to forever remember going to one of the dances. Though it is not the same from the CD player as it was live, this CD stills embodies a lot of the festivities that week. If you are not really into Native American culture it might not be something worth picking up; however, if you like powwow music this CD is definitely a good buy. IThe only problem is that some of the meaning of the songs is lost on me, as I am a casual observer of the music and culture. If you like the CD, go to the festival in April.
