For You And Me - Popol Vuh

Advantages: It ends.
Disadvantages: It begins.

...AHHHHHH!! "You Drive Me Crazy", yes congratulations Britney, the song for a lot of people is true when they sing it. You do drive me crazy..but not in a good way!! Poppy, cheesy, over the top, "oh I'm so attitudey" Miss Britney Spears well and truly does my head in. Her "seductive" let's see how far I can bend over this chair without falling out of my top annoys me beyond thought, her bopping around, cutesy little voice aggravates me and the non stop tossing of the head, batting of the eyelashes, and swaying of the hips is enough to drive any sane person crazy!! Why on earth is she allowed to continue??

The cover of the CD is white and has 3 small pictures showing mothers with their children and the title in purple letters above and then in silver lettering it says that there are 40 uplifting songs on the CD's. The back cover contains the track list for both CD's and also the production info. Inside the CD there is a small booklet which again contains the track lists and the artists. CD 1 There are 20 songs on the first CD which is a silver colour. The songs and my opinion on them are:- 1.
