Don't Get Me Wrong, But...

"I was noticing that quite a few reviewers and fans of this popular 80's Euro dance group wonder why an American label has not picked them up or distributed their music stateside. Four words. Stiff competition & younger audience. For those of us who grew up listening to the likes of groups like Bad Boys Blue in the 80's have had to make room,unfortunatley, to the more "hipper" younger groups like N'Sync and Back Street Boys.this is what teens and younger kids want (at least most of them). Unless BBB was to go alternative or rock, they would get lost in the shuffle here in the U.S.Just like another popular female music Euro artist named Sandra, unforntunately there's no more room or younger audience demand for this music anymore;It comes down to the almighty American marketing dollar and question, "Are European artists likely to be more succesful and cover a larger area around the world (profit and artistic-wise in Europe and Asia) or just in the U.S.A? This compilation displays the best of the best by Bad Boys Best for the mid to late 80's and nothing more. Without insulting my fellow Americans, let's just say the global European/Asian market covers more territory with regards to foreign countries having a more relaxed mind on artistry and not so much focus on the mighty dollar..."

"This is an excellant CD with a nice music for dance. It contains best songs like 'Pretty Young Girl' from 'Hot Girls Bad Boys' and other songs are also very nice."
