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

Most or all of her songs on this album and the last one are cover songs. Cascada needs more original songs. I don't know if her voice is as nice as it sounds on the CD since everything is wholly produced. Cascada tends to fit the mainstream beauty queen of overly used produced techno pop music that is great sounding, but very unoriginal to the point of superficialness. Most of the remakes do not stand out besides What Hurts the Most, which provides a good beat and melody for a different version to a great song. There is a lot of becoming promise for Cascada if the record companies let her, but it is probably more about the $$$$.
I like this kind of music, and Cascada has made some pretty good songs, but other than one or two songs on this album, I don't really care much for it. I got the CD and pretty much stopped listening to it after the first week. Should have spent more time to a find a better Cascada album.
Perfect day to... dance! This new Cascada album is for lovers of fast beat happy dance it has many great euro dance songs with lots of energy. Just think techno 90's buzz with happy dreamy vocals. A great cd album to get if you like uplifting dance!
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!
