4 out of 5 stars Like Much Of The 80s, Wretched Excess, But Still Fun.......2007-06-30

Most of the tracks on the first disc alone warrant purchasing it at the price offered...however, the second two discs could've been whittled-down to a few tracks that could've replaced some of the softer offerings on Disc One and it would've been one monster CD...still, the wheat can be burned from the chaff on one's mp3/I-Pod, I suppose.

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic!.......2007-05-14

Any 80's music lover will be happy to have this collection! The selection is perfect. I just love it.

5 out of 5 stars Very Good.......2007-01-12

Another 80's cd that I didn't let slip by. You will also love it, great value.

1 out of 5 stars What a Slow Bore!.......2007-01-11

Of this three disk set, I would say that maybe five songs were worth listening to and even remembered. The rest were slow and so boring. I don't even remember them form the eighties.
If you are looking for an eighties cd. DON"T buy this one. THERE HAS TO BE better ones out there than this one.

5 out of 5 stars We are thrilled!.......2007-01-04

This boxed set is the greatest! I am really enjoying all of it! Great songs.... I love 80's music and this is a great mix!

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars 80's music.......2007-07-16

I grew up in the 70's and 80's. I was nostalgic so I purchased this CD. It's okay.

5 out of 5 stars rare gems.......2007-07-03

This series is incredible! Vol 14 is one of my favorites.

I don't think you'll find Rubber Rodeo's "Anywhere with you" anywhere else - this is an amazing, under-rated song. Two other great rarities are Never Never by the Assembly and Every Word Means No by Let's Active.

Other don't-miss songs are Tenderness, One Night in Bangkok (Chess is touring around in summer 2007 - can you believe it?), Voices Carry, and Can't Get Enough of You Baby.

If you love the 80s & are on a limited budget (I only wish I could have the whole set!), this one and Vol 1 are the ones to get.

3 out of 5 stars Will The Real "One Night In Bangkok "Please Stand Up.......2006-12-23

Finally, one can have the original version of "One Night In Bangkok" on Volume 14 of this series. Murray Head wasn't smart enough to include it on his own greatest hits CD, so it's good that someone got it right. In addition, some other worthy offerings on this CD include "Close (to the edit) by Art Of Noise, Der Komimissar (After The Fire), "Imagination" by Belouis Some, and "Sunglasses At Night" by Corey Heart.

"True Men Don't Kill Coyotes" is an interesting inclusion as we get to hear the Red Hot Chili Peppers in their underground days. This is worth having if you're an 80's fan. Go get yourself a copy.

5 out of 5 stars Exactly what I thought it would be!.......2006-03-20

A great mix of hard to find music.

5 out of 5 stars Old School Skater.......2005-09-20

Damn, I havent even bought this CD but boy, talk about remeniscing, I think I spelled that right, hmm, I remmeber the skate board days, New Wave girlfreind, man.... great CD, there's nothing like 80's New Wave, or just 80's Rock, the music now? Shoot, its all over produced and bland, I 'd rather listen to daeth metal than the music now, well, I actually do.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Images from Heaven makes this a five star.......2007-06-20

The heart felt songs of the 80's are well captured in the Just Can't Get Enough series, they did a very good job of finding some of the more obscure songs of the 80's but unfortunately they spread them out to force you to buy the set. Yet still as far as the collection is concerned this is one of the best because of Peter Godwin's Images of Heaven. Play the song for yourself and you'll see why.

4 out of 5 stars not bad.......2005-03-06

If you grew up in the Eighties most of these songs will be familiar to you. Some of these are quite good ( Only You, Oblivious, Come Back and Stay ) and hold up nicely after repeated listening. Some do not, unfortunately. And for the record, the version of Our Lips Are Sealed here ( by the Fun Boy Three ) is NOT the original, as stated by the reviewer above. It was recorded after the Go-Gos did it ( although the lead singer of FBT - Terry Hall - co-wrote the song with Jane Weidlin of the Go-Go's). Overall, a fun nostalgia trip.

5 out of 5 stars This CD brings a smile to my face driving to work.......2007-05-30

TV themes these days aren't written with the same charm or character that they use to be, so I love this CD. Actually I have all 7 of the TV's Greatest Hit's CD's, and have them all loaded up in my car's CD changer. They sure put a smile on my face as I wade thru the frustrating traffic to and from work. If you're somewhere between 45 and 60yrs old, you should love the entire collection. (I'm 53)

4 out of 5 stars I love listening to TV........2005-12-05

First of all, these are ALL obviously the originals, I don't know how anyone could think they weren't. Secondly, if you're a TV addict, a child of the 80's, or just a pop-culture junkie, this is a must. It's 73 minutes of 65 TV theme songs, all for your nostalgic pleasure. Classics like "Three's Company", "Taxi", "Miami Vice", "Fat Albert", "Happy Days", "The Love Boat", and numerous others. There are a few shows sadly missing, but chances are they're on the other discs in the "TV" series, most of which are also this good. This also makes for a good game of "name that tune" with family or friends, or put in on during a party and listen to the conversation pick up. Overall, listening to TV is the best thing since watching it. Good luck finding it though.

5 out of 5 stars Original Versions.......2004-08-23

Sixty five original versions of television theme songs. It is so good to find original versions of these songs as most of these type of albums you buy contain versions sung by some unknown non original artist or played by an orchestra without the lyrics and this fact is never mentioned on the outside of the CD cover with the purchaser only finding out they have been ripped off when they get home. Rest assured this sensational album contains nothing but original versions as you heard when you watched the show on TV.

Of course some shows updated their theme songs over the years so some songs on here may be slightly different to what you remember if you tuned in a couple of seasons in.
The Muppet Show and The Smurfs are two which later versions of exist but it is good to hear and own the initial series versions anyway. There is an official Muppet Show soundtrack with the later version on it if you really want it. I am yet to come across the later Smurf one however.

With 65 TV shows covered you really can't go wrong with this collection. Sure there are some great 70's & 80's songs from shows not included, but other shows would have had to be left off for them to be put on here and everyone has different taste. I don't know how old this CD is, I found it in a second hand music store but hopefully if there isn't already a sequel the makers will bring one out with shows like Astro Boy, Married With Children, Chips, Dukes of Hazard, Secret Valley, Round the Twist, Fraggle Rock and other classics. Also a 90's version with shows like Seinfeld, Friends, Malcolm in the Middle, Law and Order, X-Files and so on would be great.

I love listening to theme songs, I don't really know why, but the fact remains that this would be the greatest collection of theme songs on the one CD that I have ever come across. Usually you have to buy whole soundtrack albums to get just one song and the other songs on the album are nothing but fillers. This CD is a must have for any collector of theme songs, just buy it!

5 out of 5 stars This CD is Cool Beans.......2004-07-31

I'm 13 and I first heard this cd in the car with my sister. we listend to The Jeffersons and All in the Family themes the most. I bought the cd a week later and Im listening to it as i wright this review.

5 out of 5 stars Going Back In Time In A Great Way.......2004-01-10

A friend had this CD while we went on a long driving trip. Listening to this over the many miles was a great brain teaser, and stumped us for many of them. We could see the opening credits and scenes we remembered, but had so much fun trying to remembering these. We laughed like crazy when we figured them out, laughing with a long trip down memory lane. We will certainly buy the other versions for other trips. Great to share with people who can also relate to these shows.

5 out of 5 stars WORTH TWICE THE ASKING PRICE.......2000-10-03

Worth twice the asking price just for Nik Kershaw's Wouldn't It Be Good!! Rest of the tracks are "vintage" 80s' also. The whole Just Can't Get Enough series is a must for 80s' music fans. Absolutely no clunkers!!!

3 out of 5 stars Gotta have if you're an 80's fan!.......1999-09-14

Got a good mix of old favorites (Relax, Cruel Summer) and some not-so-easy-to-find gems like Whisper To A Scream. I love this cd!

4 out of 5 stars best singular '80s compilation out there.......1999-09-02

While this compilation manages to have unappealing tracks ("Girls", "Free Nelson Mandela"), there are some really nice songs on here. "Hold Me Now" and "Cruel Summer" are really great songs to commute to, and "The Stand" is a powerful and anthemic delight. "Wouldn't It Be Good" is delectable and "Whisper to a Scream" is a rare gem. This is a must buy for anyone wanting an '80s compilation that doesn't contain the usual hackneyed "hitsapalooza". I even liked "Hero Takes a Fall" and I never knew I could like a Bangles song!

5 out of 5 stars Easily the best!.......1999-07-04

Songs like Nik Kershaw's "Wouldn't it Be Good" and The Special AKA's "Nelson Mandela" make this easily the best volume in this 15 volume series. Nik Kershaw fans beware: An edited version of "Wouldn't it Be Good" appears here.

Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars Just Can't Get Enough..........2007-02-04

Folks, I only bought this CD for "Send Me An Angel" by Real Life. That's one of my favorite songs from the 80's. The rest of the CD outside of "99 Luft Balloons" by Nena is passable. Five stars for the Group 'Real Life'!! Three stars for the disc overall.

3 out of 5 stars Angel Delivered!.......2006-02-25

I bought this CD because it has the original 1983 version of Real Life's "Send Me An Angel" which I couldn't find anywhere else.

As for the rest of it, this CD is a decent 80's collection. However, I'd suggest starting off any 80's library with the 5 volumes of "Living In Oblivion" and then building up from there.

5 out of 5 stars Worth the money for "Just Got Lucky" and "Emotion".......2003-12-03

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.

5 out of 5 stars VERY Shiny.......2002-09-23

It automatically gets 5 stars just for including Haysi Fantayzee! It never leaves my carousel, except maybe for a trip on the subway in my discman.

4 out of 5 stars Another Cool Collection from Rhino !.......2001-08-23

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.

Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars Pretty good 80s compilation.......2002-04-16

I'd rate this in the average to above-average category as far as compilations of 80s music go. There are some good songs here, but not enough new wave/modern rock/synth-pop (insert adjective here) for my personal taste.

For example, although I like Belinda Carlisle's "Heaven is a Place on Earth," I wouldn't pair it with some of these other songs and artists, once example being Men Without Hats. Speaking of them, I was disappointed to discover that the version of "Safety Dance" is the short version, which does not include the best part, where the ethereal woman's voice echoes out "S-A-F-E-T-Y dance."

In summation, however, I do not regret buying this CD, because it has enough songs I like to make it worth the investment. (I was especially happy that they included "Axel F" by Harold Faltermeyer, because that is quite hard to find!)

5 out of 5 stars Excellent selection!.......1999-08-26

This is an 80's cd that I always love to find. Numerous music selections that have been my favorites for years. I should buy another copy because I am wearing this one out.

4 out of 5 stars ALL TIFFANY FANS BUY THIS CD!!.......2007-06-06

This is the first Amazon review that I have written. I felt compelled to do so after reading the other "not so favorable" review. Tiffany's vocals are great. Sometimes the instrumentation or production quality is not the best, but ultimately this a great cd for any Tiffany fan to add to their collection. My favs are the new versions of "I Think We're Alone Now", and "Could've Been". Also, Tiffany does a great job of covering the following tracks: "Voices Carry" and "Forever Young". And I am a big fan the originals by Til Tuesday and Alphaville. In addition, I am not a big fan of Cher's, yet Tiffany's version of "The Beat Goes On" is funky and fun. The Shania Twain (not a fan of hers either) cover of "You've Got A Way", which closes the cd, is breathtaking and touching. So give Tiffany a chance. While you are at it go purchase her new cd "Just Me" released today June 5th, 2007!

1 out of 5 stars BUYER BEWARE.......2007-04-23

For those true Tiffany fans out there beware of this album. Don't be like me and let your curousity get the better of you with this album. It is Tiffany, it just isnt Tiffany at her best. It sounds like something that was essentially thrown together in the matter of two days. The background music sounds like music that one might sing along to at a Karaoke bar. I was sadly dissapointed when I unwrapped the cd and popped it in and began to listen to it. In my opinion the only decent song on here is I think we're alone now. Even though there are some old songs on this album they have been re-recorded and are far far far worse than one would ever expect to hear. The quality of this album is something that I might expect to hear at a concert. The cover art is something to laugh at. It looks like something someone did in print shop or some other cheap computer program. Apparently the theme with this album is goddy balloons, because they are everywhere on the jacket and disc. It hurts me to have to write a review like this for Tiffany, but I just have to do it. I wonder if she really had anything to do with the making of this album. If so it is honestly her WORST work yet. My advice to those considering buying this is to download the songs to save their money with this.

    5 out of 5 stars Detroit Radio 80's classics!!.......2005-07-21

    I ordered this CD used & what a bargain!! Almost every song takes me right back to the tunes that had radio play in Detroit in the 80's - 89X! I don't think you'll be sorry with this one.

    5 out of 5 stars Another excellent disc in the NWHOT80's series.......2004-10-26

    I tend to judge these discs not by the number of instantly familiar tracks that they have, but rather by the number of great songs that you heard once or twice and could never manage to track down anywhere else. Of the big hits, only the Human League's "(Keep Feeling) Fascination" actively nauseates, but this is only a minor criticism. The rest of the songs make for an overall enjoyable listen, with The Jam's "Beat Surrender", The Plimsoul's "A Million Miles Away" and A Flock Of Seagulls "Wishing" all combining to push the collection over the top and out of the realm of the ordinary. (Extra points because the Jam and the Plimsouls songs are truly excellent and as far as I'm concerned were truly lost.)

    4 out of 5 stars Not for Beginners.......2000-08-11

    Volume 10 in this complete and unprecedented New Wave series certainly lives up to the standards of the rest of the albums. It includes several more well known songs (Our House--a standard in any 80s compilation), as well as many more 80s tunes less universally known (Putin' on the Ritz, etc). For fans of the New Wave series and New Wave music in general, this CD is a valuable addition to your collection. However, if you are only looking for the standards in 80s music and the best of New Wave, I would suggest you shop around first to see if there are any better New Wave CDs with more of the classic hits you want.
