"Imagine, a whole album that sounds like your worst cell phone nightmare! Listening to this album in its entirety is like being trapped in a crowded room with everybody's cell phone going off, one at a time, for eternity, while having bamboo sticks pushed up under your fingernails.
As a gimmick album it's great fun, and some of the songs have hooks that will stick in your brain and have you humming them at inopportune moments. Be warned however, that only the brave or foolhardy will attempt to listen to the whole thing in one sitting.
The best track is the Brit-hit "Axel F", a totally loveable adaptation of the Harold Faltermeyer `80s instrumental classic, and the main reason for buying this album. Fortunately, you can also find it on Now Music 61, and get a much better package to go with it.
Other tracks that will stick in your earwax are perennial favorite "Popcorn"; dance number "Pump Up the Jam" (when last have you heard that one?); the perky "Pinocchio"; the "Dallas" theme; and of course the theme from "The Pink Panther".
Listen to it in bits when you're feeling down, and be prepared to either bounce madly around or throw your cell phone out of the window.

Crazy and bubbeling fun

"My 6 year old son started babbeling about afrog that said "ring ding ding" and I went "huh?". Then one day he started humming Axel F and I put on the original - much to his dismay "'tis isn't the right version mum!"
Now we're both hooked on the crazy frog hype. It's fun but hardly longlasting. The kids luv it and as parent's we get a rare opportunity to actually KNOW the songs our children like. I can highly recommend it."

"I first heard of the "Crazy Frog" on the internet in May 2005. Since then, I now have downloaded 100+ "Crazy Frog" files, ranging from wallpapers, animations, video clips and mp3's. I do not think the Crazy Frog is annoying, so I brought this CD. I also have the singles "Popcorn" and "Axel F" singles as well.
In my belief, if one buys a diversity of CD's like I do, there is a place for this CD. I own it now, and I like it lot! It is certainly not in my top 20 CD's I have ever brought, but is is far from the worst!
I own CD's ranging from Classical to Children's music, techno, trance, electronic, rock, pop, 1980's, Hip hop, commerical to 40, obscure stuff, golden oldies and everything in between!
