Music reviews of Where's Neil When You Need Him?
Music Review: Only for Fanatics
Rating: 3 Stars
I enjoy 95% of Gaiman's work, so I thought a CD with songs inspired by his stories would be kind of cool to get. I was VERY wrong. I am not a dance music kind of person. This CD was mainly bad Euro-pop dance music, and very few of the tracks actually made me think back (with fond memories) to reading the story that inspired it. Like a fool, I bought the CD without listening to any of the 30 second snippets that Amazon (and other sites) often provide. Had I listened to the previews, I would not have purchased this (so it is my fault for not liking it). True die-hard, fanatics (like people who dress up as their favorite Sandman character) of Gaiman's work would no doubt add this to their collection, just for the sake of having it.
I give it 3 stars because, while it wasn't my cup of tea, I'm sure there are others out there that would like it.
