"This may be one of the biggest scams perpetrated on music fans since Milli Vanilli.Billed as a "tribute" disc by "various artists," one might reasonably expect to hear Goo songs performed by an assortment some of today's better pop/rock/alternative artists. WRONG!All 12 tracks are performed by some cover band called "Soft," and there is no way the consumer would know this until you buy the CD, break open the packaging and read the fine print indicating that "Soft" consists of such less-than-household names as Don Flamende, Neil Withersworth, Bugsy Greenberg and Harry Caine.There is no external mention of "Soft," just fluffy prose about the Goos and a reference to these "never before heard versions sure to elicit a strong reaction."You want my strong reaction? It ...! This is an absolute crock!"
Please contribute $10.98 to a charity instead!!!

"This is BY FAR the WORST rendition of the Goo Goo dolls i have EVER heard. I am a real GooGooHead, and i'm sure my dog could sing better than these hoodlums (if i had a tonedeaf dog)! Please keep your hands in your pockets and pass on this one.... another reviewer said that it was a "touching tribute". he was partially right, i was nearly in tears just after listening to the samples!!! if you're a GGD fan i IMPLORE you to skip this album!"
Holy Moly!

"This has to be a joke! I can not fathom how anyone would want to slaughter good music like that. These samples are HORRIFYING!
Please, just go buy a copy or a second copy of the real thing."
A DISGRACE!!!

"The only reason I gave this one star is because there was no zero star rating. I am a serious Goo Goo Dolls fan and this is the worst possible tribute CD that could have ever been made!!!! I know for a fact I could have done a better job! They should have the tribute CD done over!!!"
