Advantages: A good mix of songs Disadvantages: Doesnt help you get through the housework
...A cd thats a couple of years old now but still fun to listen to.
I mean this cd says its meant to help you through the housework but I personally dont think it really does,if anything it distracts you,because you just start singing along to all the great tracks this album has to offer, you get caught up in the music and completely lose track of what you were doing - maybe a good thing in a way :-)
Housework vol 1 is a double album that has some cracking songs that you just dont seem to hear on the radio anymore such as The Beach Boys - Help Me Rhonda and Don McLeans - American Pie.
The songs on this album just make you feel good and really help to lift your spirits,but I honestly think its marketed wrong,this is a feel good album for anyone just not people doing the housework.I dont think the title of the album really represents...

Advantages: Good rhythms to do the housework to, some excellent songs Disadvantages: Some songs will appeal to some and not to others.
...had heard previously and many of which were favourites when I was younger. There are some definite 80s classics in there. Most of the songs have very catchy beats that get you moving and you can't stop singing along. Housework is definetly not one of my favourite pastimes but listening to this CD makes it more enjoyable and helps pass the time. I would recommend it if you like to listen to music while you work or just want a CD of some great songs to listen to at anytime.
Cost
----------
£12.99 from Amazon, I think it's a good price for a double CD with some amazing songs.
The Songs
------------------
I think there is a song for every household task so here goes, after this your house will be gleaming and you will have burned off a few calories dancing and singing while you work.

Advantages: Fantastic variety of genres to cover Chage & Aska's amazing legacy Disadvantages: Some lyrics aren't directly or loosely translated from the originals
..., albeit in English which isn't his best language. Always been a personal favourite of mine.
Track 10) Marianne Faithfull - Lies
The original to this, "Lies", or "Uso" sung by Chage, is one of the most emotive songs they've produced. There is a real sense of loneliness and sadness caused by a lover, but at the end shows that life isn't so bad.
Unfortunately Marianne Faithfull just sounds bitter as if she's out for revenge. The music is somewhat close to the original, but in my opinion was ruined by MF's vocals and poor translation of the lyrics.
Track 11) Wendy Matthews - Walk
The best cover by another artist on this track for Chage & Aska. Wendy Matthews put across an almost very good translation for Chage & Aska's "Walk". Really nice to listen to
Overall, a good album. Chage & Aska and Wendy Matthews were the highlights...
