 Excellent September 7, 2008
I love 2 Unlimited. I had no knowledge of them during the 90s, they were not on Chicago radio. Chgo radio had good dance/trance/rave on B96 until 1993 or so, then for some reason, they stopped playing. Not until 1998, a college radio station featured hot dance music, which morphed into Energy radio in 2001...then they went off the air! Arrghh!!
I found 2Unlimited through Amazon, featured on the Jock Jams collections. So many things in life, I wonder, why didn't I know about this sooner??...and I was not a hermit or living in a cave.
I play 2 Unlimited all the time now. Hope they reunite so we can see them again.

"Get Ready for This" is 2 Unlimited's first album. This contains there first two worldwide hits "Get Ready for This" and the even satisfying "Twilight Zone". The other tracks of the album are just as fabulous as the hits. This groups' music is strictly recommended to electronic dance fans. This is techno music at its best, Anita and Ray are excellent musicians. I also recommend: Acen-"75 Minuites", Amber-"This Is Your Night", Bananarama-"Ultra Violet", Crystal Waters-"Crystal Waters", Culture Beat-"Inside Out", Kristine W,-"Land of the Living", Madonna-"Ray of Light", Madison Avenue-"Polyester Embassy", Real McCoy-"Hey Now", Traci Lords-"1,000 Fires", and Rozalla-"Everybody's Free", "Look No Further"& "Don't Go Lose It Baby".

When I am at the gym I try to locate this CD and pop it in. It really makes an hour of cardiovascular work seem like a walk in the park!!

Hello, it's me again! The same reviewer as before, who gave his other review the summarry title, "Really, I would Give It 2 1/2 Stars If I could." Well, I'm back, reviewing the same cd again, because there are 2 things that I forgot to put in my last review.There are 2 things I didn't put in my last review that I feel neccessarry to add in and tell you about. First of all, I said that I was from Bombay, India when I wrote my other review. Well, the truth is that I'm not Indian at all. I'm actually, totally American. I just travel around the world a lot. I'm currently in the Netherlands, the home of 2 Unlimited's fan club right now. Second of all and more importantly for this review, I feel it extreemly neccessarry to tell you that despite what I said in my last review, I only meant SOME of the songs were bad. Not every song on it is bad. There are some good ones. (My favorites of which are the orchestral mix of, "Get Ready For This," and, "Contrast.") It's just that SOME of the songs are bad. Well, that's all! You can read from me next in my review for "Hits Unlimited," the album that's tons better than this one! I will be writing a review on that soon! Until then, "ta, ta!"
really, i would give it 2 1/2 stars if i could. December 29, 1998

ever since i first heard the orchestrational mix of "get ready for this," i've always been deeply obsessed with it. when my cousin let me borrow "hits unlimited," the cd that had the vocal version of the song, i found out that the song had a version with words. and the rest of the cd was perfect, too, for me. i liked the cd so much that my cousin got me one for myself on my birthday. then one day when i was looking around in a music store, i found this cd. it had both versions of "get ready for this" on it, plus other songs that were on the other cd, so i bought it. now, after having it for a little while, my conclusion is this: this cd is okay, as far as music, how most lyrics go, and some lyrics are concerned. i mean, most of the music is great! i think most of this is some of the best dance and dj music there is, and i wanna thank and complament the geniuses who wrote it! Most of the music on this cd is perfect, and i give it five stars, and i like the way most of the lyrics go, too. but the lyrics are different. they're the reason why i'm giving this cd 2 stars. some of them aren't good or appropriate, especially the f-word in "workaholic." i mean, i like most of them, don't get me wrong.-but i don't like all of them. i give this cd 2 stars, but i would've given it 2 1/2 stars because most of the music on this cd is so good, but, including and because of some of the lyrics, the whole cd doesn't deserve any rank higher, but they don't let you give 1/2-stars, so i'm giving it a plain 2 stars instead because the whole cd isn't bad, but because of some of the lyrics, isn't good, either.
