(4 out of 5 stars)

"Let me first state that i have ranked this album 4 stars....4 stars for the "stand up" track, and zero for the rest of the album....i dont know why you would by this album other than for the stand up " track!!!and what a track it is. the rest can be played at your kids party as long as they are under 10 years of age!



if you are a football nut, and took holidays just to sit up at 11pm, 1am 3am and 5am (basically live noctural), to watch the socceroos, etc, you would have felt the spine tingling "stand up" anthem blared after each match was completed. This track by the italian love song maestro patrizio buanne is the only good song on this album and is well worth the money just to have this rendition in your collection.

There are some other moments such as a remix of whitney houston's i wanna dance with somebody and a remix of the old naughty by nature hit hip hob hooray but like 99% of all remixes not done by the original artists they done live up to the bill.

All in all young kids will love the album and not go for the "stand up" track (cause its an old traditional track), as it is aimed at them, however as i said the rendition of "Stand up" is that good, that classic, that overwhelming and will remain in the hearts of all football nuts like myself especially bringing back memories of the after match pictures of Tim Cahill and john aloisi as they took the socceroos to where they had never been to before.

What a track!!! 4 stars for the track 0 stars for the rest of the album"
