It's fair to assume that if you're a Seal fan, you prefer your pop shot through with substance. Using that as a guiding principle, you'll want to glide right into Best: 1991-2004 where you will encounter, throughout two discs and 27 songs, scarcely a second of musical fluff. All the expected goosebump-raisers come on disc one--"Don't Cry" follows "Prayer for the Dying" follows "Kiss from a Rose" follows "Crazy"--and they're interspersed with deeper cuts from Seal IV such as "Get It Together" and "Loves Divine" as well as a couple of covers that, in a lesser vocalist's hands, might have been catastrophic. Seal plays it subtle and sweet and Burt Bacharach's "Walk on By," sidestepping any instinct to belt, and the help he gets from Mikey Dread on Echo & the Bunnymen's "Lips Like Sugar" settles the song into a snazzified reggae-pop celebration. (Also included is Seal's soaring cover of Steve Miller's "Fly Like an Eagle," which proved his prowess as a cover artist with its chart success). Though "best" collections aren't normally upheld for their surprise elements--nobody likes a package that challenges with armloads of new stuff--disc two pulls off a neat stunt. It's a complete acoustic album, again encompassing the major radio hits but stretching to include tracks like the impossibly tender "Touch" and the meltingly gorgeous "Colour." Their unplugged presentation, with the artist on guitar, sets an up-close-and-personal tone that suits Seal. More to the point, it suits his fans, who'll take all the intimacy with the singer-slash-heartthrob they can get. --Tammy La Gorce

Album Description

Multiplatinum selling, Grammy winning, critically acclaimed Seal unveils his first greatest hits collection with Seal Best 1991-2004. But there's even more-along with the single-CD edition, with original album versions of 12 of his hits and best-loved tracks plus a cover song newly recorded by Seal ("Walk on By"), a double-CD package adds a disc of newly recorded acoustic versions of nine of those cuts (and four others). For fans of the pop, dance, urban and adult contemporary, Seal Best 1991-2004 is the quintessential Seal experience.

Customer Reviews:

I love this music!.......2007-07-20

I'm usually buy only R&B, but I decided to try a different type of an artist. I love listening to Seal! His style is cool, unique and very sexy. Definately a Seal fan!

I love love love this guy! .......2007-03-16

This album is one I can play over and over and not get tired of. His music is fun, inspirational, romantic and just beautiful. Highly recommended for those who just want to relax and comtemplate things with a nice sound in background, or turned up loud, it makes you smile and want to dance.

Seal it with a Kiss.......2007-03-11

Nobody does it better. All of Seal's greatest hits in ONE CD. Does it get any better than that?

"Greatest Hits" album could have been "greater".......2007-03-08

I would consider myself among the top 31 (arbitrary number, of course) Seal fans in the known world, and this greatest hits album is dynamic because it's Seal, but could have been better with a few missing songs. "Newborn Friend" is a lesser known hit to those who may not be as well-versed in Seal, and it definitely should have been included. It's one of his finest works and a far cry from "Kiss from a Rose" or "Crazy", his two most well-known hits. Also, a track or two extra from "Human Beings" would have been nice. I'm not sure why Seal seems hell bent on ignoring this album, which I still prefer over Seal IV, for some reason. He doesn't even seem to perform off of it much in concert. I could have done without "Lips Like Sugar", too. It just seems like filler. For what it's worth, though, the acoustic album that comes with the special edition of the greatest hits disc is stellar and I enjoyed it quite a bit. Now how about Seal V?

essential seal.......2007-02-06

if you like Seal, this is a great compilation to add to your collection. always relaxing yet refreshing, I listen to this CD along with music by Sting, Sarah McLachlan, Phil Collins & Peter Gabriel for a nice afternoon of relaxation with my MMOs or RPGs like Sims2.

Excellent Value.......2007-06-08

This 2-disc CD from Seal is wonderful. I love having the choice between orchestrated and acoustic selections. I didn't know too much about Seal until I heard his Kiss From a Rose song. I was hooked. I bought the CD and suprise, I recognized every song on it! I just never knew who performed them until I bought the CD. If you're a Seal fan, you need this CD.

Good inspirational listening.......2007-03-08

If you like Seal's music, this is a definite "must have." I purchased it, because I didn't want all of his individual albums, yet wanted to be able to listen to his greatest hits and follow along. It's one of those CDs you pop in the car when you've had a stressful day, and after listening to a few songs, you are reenergized, revitalized, and uplifted.

Golden Collection.......2006-02-23

This is a great collection of his greatest hits. I have found that I enjoy listening to this album all the time. I hope you enjoy it like I do.

Frustrating.......2005-09-10

Best of albums are almost always a way for a record company to earn some quick bucks because the cost of producing them is practically nothing. In this case Warner Brothers adds a 2nd disk with new material, but for the price of a 2nd albumn. If you're a Seal fan you already have most of disk 1 so you'e paying a steep premium for everything else. That said, the 2nd disk is what is most disappointing. Yes, it's new versions of some great Seal songs and if you're a Seal fan you'll want them, but after comparing it to the truly accoustic Seal: The Accoustic Session, these versions seem barely "accoustic" at all. As has been the problem with some of Seal's later work, overproduction buries his talent in blanket of technically well-done, but marginally meaningful sound. What made Seal popular and famous is the passion and emotion of his voice. That should be front and center in an "accoustic" album. For whatever reasons Trevor Horn keeps complicating what should be simple and powerful.
At least get the version with the DVD audio. As I said, this release is technically well done and that's the best way to appreciate it.

Good Collection.......2005-08-21

If you're into Seal, I'd recommend this collection to ya'. It's well rounded and an easy listen.

Remarquable audio quality in 5.1.......2007-05-07

I have recently upgraded my hifi system with high end (expensive) audio components (speakers, amp, pre-amp, ...) and I am looking for the best recording available is DTS or Digital 5.1.
This Seal CD is remarkable in quality. One of the best sounding 5.1 recordings along with the latest Eagles.

There's nothing like Seal.......2007-01-15

This is a great collection to hight all the high points of his career. I still recommend some of the albums, because each collection is a work unto itself. However, if you are looking to get the core essentials, this compilation will work perfectly.

Amazing DVD-Audio !!.......2007-01-02

I bought this package to try out the DVD-Audio version in our Acura ELS Surround Sound System and it was AMAZING. I was skeptical of the car dealer hype, but the sound quality was unbelievable compared to the CD version. The DVD-Audio version is a masterpiece.

Excellent voice!.......2006-11-10

This guy can sing. I enjoyed all the songs of his that have been on the radio but the ones that weren't were kind of boring. The DVD that came with this package isn't worth the extra bucks plus they didn't include the "Kiss From a Rose" video.

Loved it !!.......2005-08-25

This is an incredible CD. I have never heard "Walk on by" in a better mix. Seal is at his best. It is cool how these songs can be rediscovered and gets to be so enjoyable. If you like Seal, you will certainly appreciate this CD. I have particularly liked "Touch" and "Colour". The acoustic versions are awesome

Nice Unmixed CD Full Of Hits.......2004-04-24

The first CD from the world's largest mainstream dance award ceremony, Dancestar Radio Hits 2004 features one floor-filler after another. 5,000 people attended 2003's award show in Miami, 800 million watched it on television worldwide, and Dancestar's licensing department seems all the stronger because of it. These are all big hits from the mainstream side of dance, there's no cheating there, but they are unmixed and almost all presented in their shorter "radio edits". If that doesn't matter to you, dig in. Plenty of the tracks appropriate pop tunes and turn them into giant anthems. Angel City cop a bit of Ready for the World's "Oh Sheila", LMC use U2's "With Or Without You" as a foundation, and Dannii Minogue takes the better part of Madonna's "Into the Groove". The influence of electro and electro-clash is strong with Benny Benassi, Tocadisco, and Ferry Corsten all adding some much needed grit to the collection. Punk Division's take on the White Stripe's "Seven Nation Army" and the Crystal Method's "Born Too Slow bring the disc to a rocking and stomping finish.

Chill by the pool.......2005-04-23

This is a nice compilation to compliment the Hotel Es Vive Ibiza. Hed Kandi has taken on the job of compiling the songs and Mark Doyle does a good job. The album is a mix of BEACH HOUSE and WINTER CHILL in terms of sound. 26 tracks in all spread out over 2 discs. Highlights include "Why" by Therese, "Shade of Summer" by Cathi Ogden and Dead Stereo, Kaskade's "Let You Go", Fac 15 feat Cathi Ogden "Blue Skies", Kings of Tomorrow feat Haze "Dreams", and many more. Overall a nice album to chill out and relax to.

DISAPPOINTED.......2004-10-05

this was my first hed kandi purchase and i must say it wasnt what i expected. i was looking for some good downtempo/funky/souful stuff but this is just generic chillout music with shallow vocals.

i may give another hed kandi title a shot, but this one was very blah. save your cash, folks.

Customer Reviews:

Good Annual! .......2006-08-18

The Annual 2004 is really good (better than the 2005, IMO) Right from the start you get into action with the EuroDance/Trance of Disc 1...From "Love Me Right" all the way to Steve Muranos "Passion" the disc has an exceptional flow of good songs...then it kinda loosens but not drastically...

Disc 2 is great as well...Milk & Sugar's "Let the Sun Shine" starts the party and the disc keeps up the good flow of songs pretty much untilt the end of the compilation...

ofcourse some great songs are missing (IMO) like Paul van Dyk's "Nothing But You" and Tiesto's "Traffic"...and others...but this Annual is still pretty strong.

I'm Lovin' It.......2004-11-17

I bought this 3 CD set when I was in Scotland in January, and I has not come out of my CD rotation yet! The sheer volume of songs here has something for everyone's ear. I also purchased Clubber's Guide 2004 & 21st Century Disco, both of which I recommend. If you are looking for something similar to this set, but a little more compressed, go with the Clubber's Guide 2004 set - it has a lot of the same songs.

Good effort........2004-08-16

I'm a bit of a newbie when it comes to Ministry of Sound releases, I only have 10 of their compilations - But this is one of the best of them, especially for someone new. The main reason I buy comps is to have the 'best' songs, so I can discover new artists then buy their own albums/singles. The highlights are Junior Jack's 'Da Hype' (Although it's the dub version with no lyrics - I highly recommend that single in addition - the singer is no other than Robert Smith of The Cure...) 'Cry Little Sister' by the Lost Brothers, 'Lonliness' and 'Wilderness' are also great tracks. 'Deepest Blue' is a highlight of disc 2, and disc 3 is made entirely of material from older annuals - Sort of a cash-in, but if you can get this set cheap enough, it's a cool bonus. However, Even in the limited amount of MOS CDs I have, there's alot of duplicates... But if you're just starting out, this is a great choice. However, if I was able to notice alot of recycled material, I'm sure people that have been buying these compilations for years will be even more annoyed. Other than that, though, this is a good mix - Highly recommended.

Awesome CD for people who like Dance.......2004-06-16

I've been impressed with the things MOS have put out. Granted this is not exactly the best album I have recieved from them, it's pretty damn good! If you like a good dance CD to add to your collection I would say this is a good start.

The annual. 15th april 2004........2004-04-16

This is my type of music, it as a bit of everything on it all the remixes beats and rhythmns. If you are into that sort of music then buy this cd.

Certain music-critic cliches bear repeating, and in the case of Daddy a Go-Go, the one about audible fun--the idea that you can actually hear how much a band is enjoying making its music--applies. A lot. This is retro-throwback-goofball-jangly guitar rock reduced to its rowdy good-time elements, and there is not a single track (assuming you are not too tethered to respectability to blaze down the road blaring kiddie music) you won't love. Standouts on Mojo, the fourth in a line of consistently groove-worthy A Go-Go records, include the Radio Disney spoof "Radio Dizzy" (sample lyric: "We'll change our names to Avril Lasagna/Or Broccoli Spears if you'll play our songs, yeah") and leadoff track "I Don't Wanna Go to School Today," a Ramones-inspired hoot-and-howler that proves that while Papa may have a brand new bag, Daddy is off-the-charts hip, too. -Tammy La Gorce

Album Description

"Mojo a Go Go - Real Rock for Kids" is on Amazon.com's Ten Best Kids CD's of 2004 List, and is a 2004 Parents Choice Award Winner.

The School Library Journal calls it "A great album for families to enjoy together. The coolest dads in the world score another hit with their fourth album of kid-friendly rock and roll. From their covers of cool classics like "Snoopy vs. the Red Baron" and "Linus and Lucy" to original songs like "I Don't Wanna Go to School," "Don't Blame the Weatherman," and "Do the Chores," these high-energy tunes combine humor and toe-tapping beats that will have kids and parents alike out of their seats."

Please check out Daddy a Go Go's 3 other CD's here at Amazon.com:

1) Cool Songs for Cool Kids, for ages 2-5, was named One of the Top Ten Best Kids CD's of 1999 by Amazon.com, and called "...a hip family classic" by FamilyFun Magazine.

2) Monkey In The Middle, for ages 4-7, won a Parents Choice Award and was also named One of the Top Ten Kids Best CD's of the Year in 2000 by Amazon.com. Also won Best Recording for Older Kids Award by Childrens Music Web, the only such awards voted on by Kids.

3) Big Rock Rooster - for ages 3-10. 2002. The Tulsa World says: "these are songs for kids with brains," while the Minneapolis Star Tribune wrote "Playing everything but drums, John Boydston shows he's as much in touch with his and your kids as he is with patented '60s guitar hooks...this CD is a righteous followup to his first two discs. Daddy a Go Go proves again that he's one of kids-music's rockin'-est rulers." Features 12 Originals like "Get Off The Computer" and "I Wanna Be An Action Hero" plus covers of a couple of obscure classics like "Hello Muddah, Hello Faddah" and "Come On Get Happy," theme from the Partridge Family TV show, and "Rag Mop."

A great way to keep your kids entertained on car trips.......2005-08-23

Any parent who regularly carts their kids around in the family minivan or SUV knows that keeping your offspring occupied prevents WWIII from breaking out in your vehicle. To that end, I'm always on the lookout for music that caters to kids without numbing the mind of anyone over 10. That's why I was so excited to find the excellent music of Daddy a Go Go. I find myself listening to his music even without my kids in the car. And that's a high compliment from someone who spent much of her youth in clubs and concert halls taking in live music and at the listening stations in records stores soaking up the latest releases. Can't wait for his next CD! Also check out his other discs: Cool Songs for Cook Kids, Monkey in the Middle, and Big Rock Rooster!

Daddy a Go Go is back on track!.......2005-08-23

After the disappointment of *Big Rock Rooster*, the third Daddy a Go Go album, I was hesitant to buy *Mojo a Go Go* when it was released. I was finally able to find a library copy to borrow, and was very happy to discover that Daddy a Go Go's fourth album is more on par with their first two releases (*Cool Songs for Cool Kids* and *Monkey in the Middle*, which my husband, 23 month-old son, and I love).

What other children's musicians mix surf guitar, Yiddish, and clever lyirics? Besides Ralph's World, not many! Memorable tracks on the CD include the Ramones-esqe "I Don't Wanna Go to School Today"; the Yiddish-smattered "Of Mice and Mensch"; covers of "Linus and Lucy" and "Snoopy vs. the Red Baron"; the pun-filled "Don't Blame the Weatherman"; and the rollicking "The Git Down Towns."

The only song we don't care for is the cheesey tweenish track, "Radio Dizzy" (which seems to have recycled the melody from the instrumental "Radio Wah Wah" on *Big Rock Rooster*). However, it's sure to appeal to older kids, with its references to tween pop culture.

Daddy a Go Go's surf guitar sound has an undertone of southern rock to it, so if you're not a fan of southern rock (as I am not), you may not care for John Boydston's brand of children's music. However, this CD has enough surf rock, creative and amusing lyrics, and cool instrumentals to make most parents and kids happy.

If you're interested in other children's musicians who rock, try Ralph's World (our favorite is the 2nd album, *At the Bottom of the Sea*); Brady Rymer (especially *I Found It!*); Yosi (*Under a Big Bright Yellow Umbrella*); They Might Be Giants (*No!* and *Here Come the ABCs*); and Elizabeth Mitchell (*You Are My Flower* and *You Are My Sunshine*, for a retro Sun Studios sound).

groove &substance,.......2005-03-20

i'v seen the band last summer ,live in detroit,it was the music i allways wanted to get,but couldn't find, its funky , it has dub in it, did i say africa?,this is the band that made me love african music,this is my generation,{i'm 26}where drum&bass,dancehall,hiphop,and africa,are all coming together,positive,the bass player{yossi fine}is amazing,i'v never seen anybody playes like that,if i could recomend a cd to start up your morning,"WEST NILE FUNK"is it

'Feel the bass in your body' - and boy, do you........2004-08-30

The former bassist for David Bowie, Lou Reed and Ngegocello wants you to 'feel the bass in your body' - and boy, do you: WEST NILE FUNK is modern African-rooted drum and bass at its hardest - joined by Ghanian musicians and an African tinge which remains more European Afro-funk than actual African.
This is the band's second full-length release and is meant for modern world dance floors - and for people who think most world funk is too light on the beat or too soft on African.
It would be even more fitting to view this band live, when dancers are added - but as WEST NILE FUNK is only a cd, take it on the tempo alone: it takes the fast dancing of general African music, erases the hiphop elements which don't fit, and turns up the amp and volume a notch.
WEST NILE FUNK is everything west of the Nile, from West Africa to Caribbean influences: it's not as beefed-up bass as modern drum n bass listeners are used to, but it makes up for the tone down in a complexity most drum and bass dance collections lack.
Not recommended for sit-down listening: WEST NILE FUNK is dance floor beat at its best.

How good of a representation is this?.......2004-12-02

Ok, so I haven't bought this album - and odds are, I won't. So, you might be asking yourself why I'm writing a negative review. Well, two of my favorite artists are Ryan Adams and Wilco. I have the albums the two songs here are from, and these are two of the weakest songs on each album. So, while I love hearing great new music, I'm wondering how good of a sampling I'm really getting from the other artists also. I'm very disapointed with the songs they chose from the artists I know, so I'll skip this in the fear that the other artists are also misrepresented.

A good mix.......2004-11-19

Ok, so here's the rundown of Mtv2's Short List Prize album.

The Shortlist, for those who don't know, is a way of awarding those who aren't doing as well as they should. All of the artists on this CD were HEAVILY considered for the prize, which consisted of, I believe, $50k. They were judged on live performances by a panel of celebrity judges (Norah Jones, John Mayer, among others) and a winner was selected.

However, what we have here is a pretty good representation of the music YOU are not hearing.

Now, Franz Ferdinand and The Killers are doing a bit better, but just about everyone else is just another name you don't know. Nellie McKay, for instance, is one of THE most talented artists to be produced in a good long time. Her album is a saucy mix of blues, jazz, rock, and rap. If you have any expectations of her song, "David", drop them. You're wrong. Also featured on the album is Jem, a strikingly talented Brit who's past lies in the deep beats of Drum N' Bass. Her debut album is like Dido with a dark side. The song on this album is one of her best offerings. TV on the Radio is a very interesting mix of hip hop and rock that you just have to hear to believe. Loretta Lynn, can you believe she's on here?, is represented with a song off her album which was produced by White Stripes' Jack White. I wasn't expecting much when hearing this song, but I was *very* pleased with it. Jack White's production made is crunchy and raw, while keeping her voice and message categorized as "Country".

There's loads to love here, and I highly recommend this to anyone who hates to commit to buying artists' albums. Get this, and be happy living blissfully in indecision.

First timer is hooked.......2004-10-25

I owe my older brother for introducing me to Zero 7 and Thievery Corporation. But this Summer 2004 Chillout blew me away and put me on a mission to find chilling tunes and inspiring mixes.

Disk 2 starts off dreamy with SubSub, and picks it up from there with funky, interesting tracks, seamlessly mixed together. BRS 'Lovin Me' is great, but all are good - hit play and call a few friends. Probably will be your fave of the two, initially.

Disk 1 turned me off at first, mostly due to the melancholy Michael Andrews "Mad World" - a Tears for Fears cover. A little more unusual mix, and a rapidly changing mood for a few tracks, but the latter tracks on Disc 1 are great. The Sofa Surfers, and tunes like 'Try Me' and 'Jam for the Ladies' converted me. Got to get a couple more MOS Chillout disks and am glad to have been exposed to these other artists!
