What gets annoying is when Eiffel 65 attempts to make good lyrics, this just becomes a pointless try to add substance to something that really, well doesn’t need it. Like a cheesy 80’s horror flick, these songs have no substance what-so-ever but they are just such good dance tracks. The producers/writers have an amazing talent of manufacturing some of the greatest pop crap I have ever heard. The lyrics remain terribly stupid, but amazingly catchy. The good tracks on the other hand just make you want to dance, Dub in Life despite its awful title houses one of the greatest snyth hooks on the album. Songs like Too Much of Heaven are about slightly mature topics, for example money dependence but it is (nearly) impossible to take anyone singing Yeahah over the cheesiest piano line in history seriously. The same beat is essentially rehashed another 13 times with a different piano line and progressively stupider lyrics. I’m going to tell you right here right now, they are a painful listening experience. The rest is a mix of good dance music and absolute poo. This song being the epitome of a good European dance-pop track sets quite a high standard for… Is it hard to fathom why I liked this song enough to buy the CD? No, not really I liked Pokemon for god sakes. While the vocals (God knows who created them) aren’t great they totally fit the song. I’m Blue Da Ba Dee da ba di, If I was green I would die, If I was green I would die-ie. Soaring synthesizers, a fairly cool bass line and a great piano loop set over a pulsing dance beat house the vocals that everyone knows (From the radio, MTV or even your school dance ). And it begins with…Īs far as pop music goes, this is really a great song. In this review I will document my listening to experience.

All I cared was that I could sing along to it and dance.įast forward nearly a decade to 2006, its time for me to clean out the closet and re-listen to my first ever CD, Eiffel 65’s one and only Europop.

Blue was a truly fun tune, granted it was hardly musical genius but what 1st or 2nd grader cares about chord progressions and complex use of metaphors. Honestly it doesn’t surprise me that I bought it. For me, this trip was down Eiffel 65 lane, for I had bought the oddly named foreign dance acts CD, Europop solely for the massive hit Blue (Da Ba Dee). And it’s a fun trip down memory lane to go back and listen to what you once hailed worthy enough to buy. Everyone remembers the first few CDs they bought.
