gefällt mir nicht
****
KNAPP GENÜGEND
*
Ganz klar eine 1!
****
geile trommeln - das macht den song aus!
**
Schrecklich. Trommeln retten die 2*.
****
Durchschnitt.
****
Wow, hier geht es aber hart zu. Bin allerdings auch nicht wirklich begeistert. Die Engländer von der ersten Single aus "Come With Us" schon eher: # 8 UK 2001.
**
überaus schwach...ich habe absolut nichts gegen afrikanische Trommel-Rhythmen oder exotische Songs...aber sehr wohl gegen einfalls- und liebloses Geduddel sowie penetrant nervige Sounds wie dem hier der Fall ist - 2*...soll das hier einen afrikanischen Fruchtbarkeitstanz darstellen oder steht das Verspeisen eines Menschen an?...
***
Es geht

Wie wahr, alles begann ja in Afrika....<br><br>....allein der Zauber des schwarzen Kontinents will sich<br>einem hier nicht so recht erschliessen.<br><br>2 - 3

▒ Dit aardige plaatje met véél tromgeroffel van de Britse danceformatie "Tom Rowlands en Ed Simons", alias "The Chemical Brothers" uit de nazomer van 2001, wist in Nederland niet de hitlijsten te halen ☺!!!

Peaked at #60 in Australia, 2001.<br><br>Features on JJJ Hottest 100 Volume 9.
*****
Tromgeroffel voor de Chemical Brothers.

... fast gut ...

Dynamic to an extent.
**
A dull, festering turd that goes on far too long.
**
schwach, langweilig, belanglos; etc.
**
...ich finde keine Argumente für mehr Punkte...
****
Okay, einer der sehr sperrigen Songs von ihnen. Weiß nicht ob man sich daran gewöhnen kann.

...schwach...

Was für ein wirrer Titel... Kannte ich bis anhin nicht. Nun, da ich ihn auf YouTube komplett hören konnte muss ich sagen, dass er mich enorm an Orbital erinnert. Man muss den Zugang finden. Das gelingt wahrscheinlich erst, nachdem man ein paar gewisse Substanzen intus hat. Nichtsdestotrotz interessant anzuhören.
**
Bei dem Song und mir stimmt die Chemie nicht
**
oje
*
Schwach!
******
Das gegenteil von schwach
***
Erinnert passender- und interessanterweise stellenweise leicht an den "Tribal Dance" von 2 Unlimited. Ansonsten ein eher unmelodiöses Werk, das etwas unmotiviert vor sich hin scheppert. Gute 3.
****
Ganz ok.
