| Good for a specific audience | 2009-01-10 | 4 / 5 |
| | If your a fan of the top-40 hits of the band, stick with Vol 1. If you've liked the band since "Superstar Carwash" and before, or are maybe tired of hearing Iris on the radio, give this disc a spin. Its not the rest of the radio-friendly hits. Its somewhat redundant to "Ego, Opinion, Art & Commerce," but American Girl, Million Miles Away and the Red Rocks video make it worth adding to the collection. |
| Videos missing on the DVD | 2008-12-04 | 4 / 5 |
| I bought this album, the songs included might not be so good but DVD was really worth having. But I got a bit disappointed because there are videos missing: Before it's too late, Give a little bit. Those videos must have been included. I appreciate to have the first Goo's videos, but I would have loved to have ALL videos.
Besides, is there a video of Big Machine? If there is, i would have loved to have it too.
The video concert is really cool, I like it more than the 2004 Buffalo's concert. |
| Average music, great video collection | 2008-09-10 | 3 / 5 |
| Goo Goo Dolls released most of their hits on "Greatest Hits: Vol. 1," leaving the not quite so great hits for "Vol. 2," with some 80s cover songs and a demo of "Iris." The collection of videos on disc two is incredible, but after a while, I got tired of all the Goo Goo.
Don't get me wrong, I love the Goo Goo Dolls. Even if radio stations don't play their really great hits ("Black Balloon") as much as they really should, the Goo Goo Dolls are a very good pop rock band. However, if anyone can imagine how nauseated they were with hearing "Iris" twenty million times on the station, they have yet to listen to the overdose of dramatic pop on "Vol. 2." All the Goo Goo Dolls' videos are on disc two, so everyone can now get their daily music video fix of John Rzeznik with this double-disc album.
And if that wasn't enough, the Goo Goo Dolls even added a video of five songs from their concert at Red Rocks, Colorado. And they also snuck in a performance of "Slide" in there as well. This is an excellent collection of goodies and treats from the band.
But be warned, do not try to listen to all the videos in one day. Believe me, I tried, and by the end, I didn't want to hear anymore of those pop hooks again.
But the Goo Goo Dolls are still a very good band. One especially good reason to get this album is for the obscure song from the "Batman and Robin" soundtrack, "Lazy Eye." This is the Goo Goo Dolls at their best, with the loudest and edgiest performance that would even make Billy Corgan proud.
And the Goo Goo Dolls play some great smashing punk renditions of 80s songs, such as "Slave Girl" by the Lime Spiders and "Don't Change" by INXS.
So even though I got tired of it, the Goo Goo Dolls' fans will snatch this collection from music stores (or ) immediately. And I just can't resist watching the video of "Black Balloon" over and over again. |
| Greatest Hits Vol. 11 ? | 2008-08-31 | 5 / 5 |
| This is a collection of unreleased,demos,B-sides,soundtracks, and fan favorites.
This Collection is great. Unlike volume 1 which is just their top 40 hits. It has tracks from all their releases. "Torn Apart", "No Way Out", "I'm Awake Now" and "String of Lies" are my goo songs on this record.
Their version of Tom Petty's "American Girl" is great too.
Then you got the DVD which has all their music videos and a live performance.
Since the Goo Goo Dolls are past their prime they should focus on reissuing and remastering their old records, since their first 3 records have bad sound and all almost impossible to find. |
| History of the Goos music with Amazing DVD tracks | 2008-08-29 | 5 / 5 |
| | This CD/DVD is a must have collection for all Goo fans! The CD has great rarities, including the demo version of Iris, giving the opportunity to hear the transformation of the song from first recording to the monster hit version. This is a chance to hear the history of the Goo Goo Dolls and to take a listen back through time. The DVD has all the music videos, as well as some live performances from Red Rocks last year, and is again an opportunity to view the musical transformation of one of Americas best loved bands. Awesome is the best way to describe this CD/DVD collection. Buy it, you won't be disappointed. |
