Customer Reviews
WOW
I agree with Ben, i originally heard this band on the OC, so i checked the album out and..wow...i'm so glad i did! ROONEY are my favourite!!!
Every single song is different, but they all have the same sort of feel good factor. They make me wanna get up and dance!
My favourite tracks include..
Blueside - Has a catchy little beat, the drums are constant in rhythm. The song in general is really indie, and i can definately imagine at a concert, people moshin to it. Yet it's not that heavy.
If it were up to me - I love this song. I love how there are so many different catchy bits, especially the chorus. This song is a really happy tune, and makes you feel good!
I'm a terrible person - One from the OC. I love it. I love driving to this song, i get really in to it and start singing really loudly. The lyrics are about a bad situation, and there seems to be no regret, however i still feel really good listening to it.
Daisy Duke - This tune is a bit slower than the others, it seems more sort of fountains of wayne style. This song is really indie. I love the chorus so much, i think it's the most catchy song on the album. "you don't know me so welllll, i think you know that now"
Popstars - My favourite song, partly because it's from the OC. I just love the beat, it's quite a melancholic song actually, but none the less it's great. I find this song kinda relaxing actually, and along with the rest of the songs, it's so catchy. Especially the beginning.
I'm Shakin' - This song must be the most popular/famous song. And theres no suprises there. It's a really catchy tune, and the beat is great!..it's really uplifting. If you're in a bad mood, put this song on cos' by the end of it you won't be able to help smiling and doing a little jig!
All in all the whole album is brilliant..there isn't one song i dislike...i could sit for ages and say how brilliant they are.. i don't think i've ever found an album where EVERY song is brilliant. It's SO worth buying! definately car material, and bedroom material..and even cooking material if thats what u want!
Wow
Wow! This album rocks. I originally heard of Rooney through The OC, and then looked into their album - it rocks! I can't wait for their next one. Buy it!
Rooney are the best
I first heard of Rooney on the channel 4 morning sunday show, Popworld where they performed Shakin' and I was instantly hooked.This song is catchy and when I went to the USA I bought the album.Since then I have never had them off my CD player!The songs are all catchy and everyone can sing along to the great lyrics.There is not one song I dont listen to on the album as they are all great.If you can buy it
