Summary: Hot Tracs!
Comment: Hot tracs, lots of energy. Reminds me of a CD I bought years ago in the early 1990's called "PULSE." But nothing equals Cascada's sweet-toned, dreamy voice. Buy this and you will not be disappointed!

Summary: Perfect Day
Comment: Another great album though I must admit not as good as the first but definitely worth buying if your a true Cascada fan. Props to the remake of Because the Night, truely grasps everything Natalie Merchant expressed in the original. Am looking forward to the next album.

Summary: Cascada's creative covers - US Edition
Comment: German group Cascada's second album goes back to what they're really good at - covering popular songs and transforming them into Eurodance hits. Being dance music, many of the tracks have similar driving beats, but this album WILL make you want to go clubbing, or at least jig(gle) around the house a little.
The first single is "What Hurts the Most", originally a country song sung by Mark Wills, and the second is the original "What Do You Want From Me?" Also look for the cover of "Because the Night" (Patti Smith), and "Runaway", "Perfect Day" and the ballad (yes, ballad) "Could It Be You?" which showcases the strong vocals of Natalie Horler.
This is the US edition of this album which has a different track list to the UK version. The songs "I Will Believe It", "SK8er Boi" (Avril Lavigne), "Just Like a Pill" (P!nk) and "Endless Summer" aren't included on this album, and the tracks "Faded", "Holiday" and "Dream On Dreamer" aren't on the UK version. Personally I'd go for the baker's dozen on the UK album.
Rated: 3.5 stars

Summary: Nearly as good as the first album
Comment: 3/23/08 - After being teased for months with Rascal Flatts' cover and 1st single "What Hurts The Most," Cascada (Natalie Horler + producers Yann "Yanou" Peifer and Manuel Reuter) unleashes their follow up to the wildly successful "Everytime We Touch" album. As of this writing, Cascada is the most successful German act worldwide right now and has enjoyed record breaking download figures and many awards since their debut.
The "typical Cascada sound" is an upbeat dance cut that opens with a mellow ballad-like segment kicking into a hard driving beat at 1st chorus interspersed with thick synth-driven transitions. While this formulaic approach does make for a consistent dance album, it tends to force the defining mark of the best tracks to be melody.
Standout songs sporting the typical Cascada sound are "Who Do You Think You Are" (not an M-People cover), the very catchy "Dream on Dreamer" and "Runaway," second single "What Do You Want From Me," and the aforementioned "What Hurts The Most," featuring some pleasant acoustic guitar woven into the mix. There are a couple of decent ballads ("Could it be You" & the Candlelight mix of "What Hurts The Most") thrown in for good measure. Interestingly, there are numerous import versions that include up to four additional (non-remix) titles that we don't get on this US edition.
But the most exciting thing for me as a dance music fan are a few tracks that vary slightly from the Cascada formula yet are still enjoyable dance songs. "Holiday" (a slower tempo, fun. girl-power number--and not a Madonna cover by the way), and "Faded" (with its more Ian Van Dahl or Da Buzz feel). My only complaint here is the done-to-death cover of Patti Smith's "Because The Night." Although not much new ground has been broken here, Perfect Day is a solid follow up that shouldn't disappoint Cascada fans coming back for more. See cascada-music.de for more info. --Kurt Kirton
