Reviews Customer Reviews for Halfway Between The Gutter And The Stars      Don't Expect Hip Hop & You'll Be Fine...      Rating:      Reading all these reviews, you've got a whole buncha people bashing on this CD because it's a dance album. Well, to all you that don't know Norman Cook, AKA Fatboy Slim is in fact a dance artist who produces dance music, don't go into this album expecting anything different. Mr. Cook is a genious and his singles time & time again are proven not only to be sucessful, but also timeless(aside from the tracks that the top 40 radio DJs get ahold of and cram down our throats a zillion times until we never wanna hear 'em again... Thanks for that by the way, you're doing the world a great service). As far as not understanding "Star 69",; what is there to understand. "Star 69" was made for one reason & one reason only, to make you shake your butt. If you're looking for meaning in music, go listen to Yanni, or Enya, or Celine Dion, only listen to Fatboy if you wanna boogie to the MFin' oogie. As far as the guy bashin' "Bird Of Prey", it's Jim Morrison dude; what more do you need. For those of you who don't know musicians outside of the Backseat Boys, Jim's the lead singer from The Doors, & one of the few truely brilliant musicians of ours any other generation... ever. Basically I'll put it like this, don't bash on the man because you're to sheltered to understand good music unless it's played for you twice every hour on the hour on the radio or MTV. Cook's music'll be around alot longer than any one of your 1 hit wonder's out there. Just because Norman makes his own music, & not from some mold given to him by some slimey record executive doesn't mean his music is bad. If you don't get it fine, but don't bash on something just because you're to shallow or close minded to understand. Open your ears and give it a shot, your brain will thank you.     Customer Reviews for Halfway Between The Gutter And The Stars Cd      The best fatboy slim!      Rating:      I reckon this is the BEST fatboy slim cd, mainly because it has weapon of choice!
