Textlich auf jeden Fall eher unkreativ (die meisten Songs bestehen eigentlich nur aus dem Songtitel). Fand ich jetzt eher langweilig im Ganzen.
I just wanna hear a good beat and this album does not deliver. Zoo-Wa.
The wind is more interesting to listen to than that.
Ugh.... Dee-Lite are one of those shitty 90's electronic disco pop bands that were so popular at the time. They are best known for the song Groove Is In The Heart, which was a certified banger. The rest of this album pales in comparison though, and one good song does not a good album make. The album cover looks like something The Wiggles would put out. Thank fuck that albums done. It had good beat, but no one in the band had any talent whatsoever. The beat was maintained by a drum machine, and it was the best member of the band. What a painful listening experience. I want that 48 minutes of my life back. The early 90's was a shitty time for pop/dance music. Disco had died....leave it dead ffs! Favourite songs: Groove Is In The Heart Least favourite songs: Deee-Lite Theme... And others.... This whole album kind of ran together into a rave fueled mess. 1/5
Groove is by far the best song. Some are sort of ok, some are outright bad.
Well that sucked. This album had a lot of the things I hate in music. It was stupid, the lyrics were dumb and naïve, they had no depth, it was all just love and smile more and flower power. Musically it was buns as well. It was all just electronic crap with equally bad and worthless lyrics over top of it. I hated this. That felt good to get out of my system.
Poppy dance crap. Not for me.
love the vibe but not for me, every song sounds the same, album cover is funny
Obviously aware of these guys due to 'Groove is in the Heart.' Not a huge fan, let's see if the whole album can change my mind in anyway... Honestly I try not to judge albums on the artwork, because there are some awesome albums with boring/weird artwork, but this stuff is pure 90s pop nonsense so it doesn't look good from the jump. The intro was some weird attempt at hype-hop. The second song is literally called 'Good Beat' and it sounds like a Good Vibrations attempt. It's incredibly repetitive and not very good. Terrible weird 'zcat' with zoo-ahs throughout the outro. This song is terrible and it's way too fucking long. This is torture. Not a huge fan. Nothing else on this album is really grabbing me, either. The song 'What is Love?' is a weird, long, boring nothingness of synth farts. I literally laughed out loud at the weird 'It's Limited' lyric in the title track. Some bad rapping in this song. Gosh this is genuinely bad. I just read that Hancock was involved in this album and it almost makes me lose a bit of respect for him, that's how much I dislike this. The only good part of this album is Q-Tip's verse on 'Groove is in the Heart' 1/5
Groove is in the heart is a banger, the rest is incredibly forgettable.
1/5. Album does didn’t do anything for me. They really believe this album is one of the top 1000 of all time? I find that hard to believe.
Funk pop mash-up. Didn't find a single track on this album that I liked. A definite 1 star.
sounds like some digshitty dance-pop, lowest possible level of musicianship. blegh stealing from another reviewer: deee-lete this shit Significant 30/83 Liked 14/83 Added 4/83 NNN previous REM-Document also NNN
This album feels so phoned in. The instrumentals feel cheap and the performances sound aimless. I hate fun.
So this album has a song on it. It was a rump shaker with all the ladies back in the day. But what else is there? Sort of a one hit wonder album with the title track literally being the worst-- absolutely dismal sound and lyrics.
Not my style of music but not too bad...until the song with audio of someone eating chips. Terrible. 1 star
Sweet Jesus, this could not make the top 10,000 albums. Moondance to this. Sublime to the ridiculous
Terrible. Couldn’t listen to it at all.
Disliked greatly. Especially the song that ends with the dude breathing and eating chips and chuckling. Screw that. Please give me a good album next.
We don't need a clique To make our clock tick Our clique is the world The world is our clique ... do I need to say more Not even Q-Tip could salvage this record
The first real rough listen since I started this endeavor, pretty clear why they were a one hit wonder.
about what you'd expect from cover art like this. Their one hit was a fun song but I could get by without ever listening to deee lite.
piss
nope
an overall boring album. i get that its important for the world of dance music and getting it to the main stream but god its so boring.
Buiten "Groove is in the heart", vooral kut, 1.5
🤢
Shiii-ite
One great nostalgic song, the rest was very meh.
Why?
Really inane.
This was way worse than I remember it being.
Bad, no good
What is love is the only good track
Kolejna desperacka potyczna z lista, tym razem World Clique, ktory jest debiutanckim albumem grupy tworzacej szeroko pojeta muzyke taneczna Deee-Lite, jesli sadzilem ze wczoraj bylo grane na jedno kopyto, to dzisiaj zostalo to podniesione do potegi, bo dencingowo przy wykorzystaniu synthow, bo sami dje w bendzie, Super DJ Dimitry, Jungle DJ Towa Towa i The Lady Miss Kier Kirby, wiec wyjasnia to troche tytul ich debiutanckiej plyty, chociaz pani Kirby bardziej od spiewania jest w tym przypadku, ale moze cos tam kreci jeszcze na boku jakims dzikim synthem, jesli krazek mogl byc popularny w swoich czasach, czyli wczesnych latach 90, tak zestarzal sie slabo i jedynie jeden utwor zostal tam jakims klasykiem, mianowicie groove is in the heart, ktory ficzuruje Q-Tipa na majku, wiec jedynie ten utwor byl czegokolwiek warty, pozostala czesc tych 48 minut, to prawdziwe syntezatorowe meczarnie z gatunku house
Not for me.
Not for me.
Well, now I absolutely know why Deee-Lite is a one-hit-wonder... I did not get anything out of this album at all. It sounded pretty generic throughout, and the repetitive lyrics and vocal style really got irritating as I went through it. Ironically, this is the first album I have listened to on my nice headphones (I’m home for Thanksgiving break); however, it did not enhance or save the experience. This is the first entry I’ve gotten where I didn’t want to finish it, but I am determined and have decided to listen to every album fully. The only bright spot for me was their hit, Groove is in the Heart, but only for one reason: I had never heard the Q-Tip rap verse before which is awesome as always (huge fan of verses from “the Abstract”). Outside of that moment, it was overall the strongest song on the record, but the repetitiveness also ended up bringing it down a notch for me. 1.5/5. The weakest album I have heard so far on this list.
This album was the most 90s thing I’ve ever heard and it was not enjoyable at except for the one-hit wonder groove in the heart. Every song is both boring and annoying with lame production and okay singing until you reach groove is in the heart and there’s finally a catchy baseline. Without that one song this album would be completely irredeemable. Fav song: groove is in the heart
Hier was echt helemaal niks aan.
Nice drum break on first track Not keen on 4/4 beats and singing with piano Don't like the singing over dance music Slower tracks better I could do without listening to Groove Is In The Heart ever again

No
I think it's funk - but the annoying one
