Review - Amazon.com
Let's make a sweeping, highly subjective generalization: Americans make the best rock & roll in the world (the Stones notwithstanding), and the Europeans have a lock on fizzy, upbeat, fuchsia-colored dance-pop. Think of Aqua, ABBA, Pet Shop Boys, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Erasure, and now, Lasgo. The Belgian trio follows a long line of studio-friendly outfits that stretch basic pop melodies and lyrics over a disco framework like so much Lycra. Anchored by male and female vocals, Lasgo trade in incessantly stoked electro-beats; songs like "Something" and "Alone" (both included on Some Things) recall that fabulous scene in Trainspotting when Diane and Renton fall hopelessly into the groove--and each other--under pulsing neon. Almost cartoonishly bright, Some Things is hopelessly, relentlessly up. Saturday night just got a new soundtrack. --Kim Hughes

- Belgium rocks.

Lasgo - incase you haven't heard of them, they are a three piece group from Belgium featuring Peter Lutz (who has done numerous dance remixes, Dave McCullen, and 19-year-old Evi Goffen. This album seriously rocks. Evi has such an amazing voice, especially for being so young, and Peter and Dave tie it all together with some really fantastic dance songs that get your booty shakin'! If you like other Eurodance groups such as Ace of Base (The Sign era), Milk Inc., DJ Encore f/Engelina, and Sylver among others- you will love this album. Some of the best tracks are "Follow You", "Searching", "Pray", "Something" and "Feelings". Another great track is "Cry" which is sung by David (he also sings "I Dont Belong 2 U" on the album). Overall a great CD, perfect to just put on and groove to. I can't wait to hear more stuff from Lasgo!

- Belgians Create Another EuroTrance/Pop Masterpiece.

"Something" is a TERRIFIC song from a Belgian trio called Lasgo. It is a Very powerful Dance/Trance song with Amazingly Beautiful Female Vocals. Music and melodies of ALL Lasgo songs are so POWERFUL, that they make me want to grow wings and fly. Simply Incredible Stuff.

This album is mainly DANCE/TRANCE/TECHNO music with beautiful melodies and Angelic female Vocals. There is a lot of energy and catchy melody in this album. There are no bad songs, and you can listen to the whole CD and FULLY enjoy every single track.

Female Vocals and Great Melodies give each of their songs a POP/RADIO FRIENDLY feel. There is a SLOW POP BALLAD (Cry). This is a true Pop Ballad TO DIE FOR. STUNNING MELODY with MALE VOCALS. "Searching" is another slower, very beautiful song.

If you like music by MILK INC, DJ ENCORE,RIMINI PROJECT, SYLVER, FRAGMA, or IAN VAN DAHL then this album is a MUST HAVE for you.

I also think that if you enjoy listening to music with very Beautiful melodies and vocals (like CELINE DION or something similar), then you definitely should check out Lasgo's Album. Fans of ROXETTE's music should like this album too.

Also fans of Old School Eurodance (LA BOUCHE, REAL MCCOY, MASTERBOY) should also enjoy Lasgo's music.

Support this Very Talented Trio from Belgium and buy LASGO'S FULL LENGTH ALBUM called "SOME THINGS". Tell your friends about them too. In my oppinion this is the best album to come out in 2002. I promise, you will LOVE LASGO's Beautiful Sound. Enjoy.

- perfect

everyone plays to death a new cd that they really love and soon might get sick of it. Well.. i've had this cd for about a year( i bought the belgian version first) and i have to tell you, i have played it to death. i listen to it every day.i have one for my office and one for the car.but i love it. Dance music changes its flavor and style over the years, and trance seems to be the thing right now. but this is the most solid cd i've ever bought by a dance band. you hear something new with every listen. the lyrics are top notch, so is the music and complete production."something" deserves all the success it is getting. i just hope it doesnt take away from the rest of the album, as far as radio goes. the stand out tracks are: the whole cd. "blue"-gives me goosebumps everytime i hear it.What a build up! vocally and musically (...for me and you...). "alone" is the "i will survive" of vocal trance.and "I Wonder" should be the next single. The ballad, "Searching" is just gorgeous. you have to hear it to beleive its coming from a dance act. Some of my guy friends who hate dance music have actually bought this cd after hearing it from me. they say its "different" and they love it. i can go on forever but i wont. just buy it. its worth every penny. this is gonna be the sleeper hit of the year in america. Dance acts traditionally don't put out such solid full length cd's. this is a masterpiece.

- Best dance CD i own

up until i bought this cd, there has never been a time when i bought a cd and pressed the "repeat" button on EVERY track. when i bought lasgo's album "somethings", this all changed.

literally every song on this cd is a masterpiece. there's always one or 2 "filler" tracks on a cd, but i sincerely cannot say this about "somethings". every song is radio worthy. if you thought the single "something" was hot, then youve GOT to hear the rest of this cd!! there are no words to describe it. in my opinion, "i dont belong to u" is the best song on the whole cd and blows "something" away. i dont understand why this wasnt the first song released, but im still waiting.

if you like house-y dance stuff and if you enjoyed "something", then what are you waiting for? go get this cd!! you wont be disappointed!!

- Shivers With Trance

Lasgo is a group from belgium that is part of the trance genre, the main singer a female vocalist dominates this album completely and she will amaze you with the great songs she performs. Starting things off with the mysterious "Something" then the bittersweet "Blue" it's about broken heart, and "Alone" which have an overall theme of broken hearts and sadness, the songs however are touching and sound great as you can almost see the passion with which the singer expressed in the songs. The only weakness with this album is that many of the songs lack good beats and layers of synths; you'll just start thinking that they could've added more to compliment the songs. Overall though this is an excellent cd and you should have it in your collection if you like trance songs.
