This was Aqua’s first album (not to be confused with their second Aquarius). This is definitely not as good as that one, but it’s still great, fun pop. Almost every tune does stick to the Barbie Girl/Doctor Jones/My Oh My formula, but they’re still great, and if you liked those songs you’ll like the rest, and standout tracks from that bunch (apart from those already mentioned) are Lollipop and Roses Are Red (which ironically were singles in certain parts of the world). The two songs that vary from the formula were singles too. Turn Back Time was taken from the Sliding Doors soundtrack, and it’s a brilliant mid-tempo song that deserved it’s number one position. Good Morning Sunshine, is another summery, mid-tempo brilliant track that unfortunately could only make number eighteen in December 1998. However, it’s still a fantastic song, and if you like Aqua, you’ll like this album.
