I'm only going to review the additional stuff that you get on the Ultra Violet Edition over the original "The Dream" If you want to see a review of "The Dream" you can check it out as I've already reviewed it. Ultra Violet adds a bonus disk with 5 additional tracks, 3 of which are brand new (well sort of, 'Call Me' has been purchasable for sometime now) Call Me, Sailing Away, & Dying Star. Sailing Away and Dying star are more 'ballads' but are incredible in that they really show how versatile her voice can be. Also you get videos of a few acoustic versions of their songs from "The Dream" along with a Metal Couture concert video. The videos alone I think are worth the repurchase they're quite lengthy (which is a good thing I think) and really show how she sounds without being 'enhanced' by the studio. It also shows that perhaps she doesn't sound quite like the CD will make you believe, however her voice still is entrancing kind of like how a fallen angel would sound if I was ever to hear one sing. All and all its worth the purchase even if you have "The Dream" heck I have both editions of "The Dream" and got the MP3's of Call Me, Sailing Away & Dying star.

It's great to finally have the b-sides Sailing Away and A Dying Star on the bonus CD. These two songs are excellent and showcases the bands diverse styles plus Maria's beautiful vocals. This also contains the radio edit of Forever and a instrumental version of Call Me, which is their brand new single. The enhanced part contains the Forever video and 2 full acoustic performances which are pretty cool too. However, I wish they had released those on dvd instead of a video file. The bonus cd is attatched to the slipcase which houses the original 'The Dream' cd. Overall, if you liked 'The Dream', you'll love this reissue.

I would recomend this one for anybody. It is such a great album. I liked this one so much. I bought everything they have put out there to buy

Ok, I really need to start with my one MAJOR disappointment- The Forever music video, Metal Couture MTV2 Performance, and the Acoustic Performance at EMG Studios ARE ON VIDEO FILES!!!! It's kinda why I got the Ultra Violet Edition. My computer is kinda messed up, so I've been unable to watch them. Why do that to the fans??? (I wish Amazon.com would've noted that on it's product description.) Great cds. Maria has an amazing voice. I love the re-make of Blondie's Call Me (not really a fan of any instrumentals- but they're ok). I do wish there was more of Maria screaming on this cd, she has an amazing voice. To me this cd seems a little more mellow than the rest- maybe due to the lack of screaming?? IDK. Century Media Records (record company) SHOULD have put the 5 bonus songs on the main cd & put the video & performances on a dvd. I give whomever made THAT decision, 1/8 star. I give the cds 3 1/2-4 stars, video FILES 1/4 star (not what's on the files); would've been 4 1/2-5 stars overall.

Where is the video that is supposed to accompany this album?

This is the first time I've heard this group...WOW! This old hippie is blown away...

...now I want to SEE them perform, as promised. Is the video hidden somewhere? How do I get it?

Five stars for the music...minus one star for the video not being here.
