Fun Fun Fun
This is another FUN creation from the group! What a great job. Each song is sing-along-able. YEAH!!!!!!!!!!

Unique Band closes one door opens another
Bouncing off the satellites - I was introduced to the bees in the 1970's when Rock Lobster was televised on "Saturday Night Live" - "quirky" was my only thought. 7 or 8 years later I'm in L.A. and KROQ is playing songs from Bouncing off the Satellites, WOW! One of the best CD's to make it to air. I've owned this on tape, CD and MP3 for 25 odd years, it wears well. If you like the Bees, you like these. Much can be said of the personnel, the tragedies and the lack of touring, but one thing stands clear - These are witty, smart and melodic tunes full of energy and pretty much unlike anything anybody else has ever done. These are quintessential B52 songs, more polished, but still holding the heart of the band from its origins as a house party band. Simple songs, told well, they entertain and leave the listener wanting more.

This music will outlive us all as well it should, songs from an imaginary future still waiting to be lived.

Buy it, everyone should own this album, it should be a law!!! chill out and enjoy it with cocktails, close friends and family pets.

AH THE 80'S
This is my favorite album from the B's.
"She brakes for Rainbows" "Girl from Ipanema she goes to Greenland" "Summer of Love" "Roam"
I was the only African American girl singing the lyrics of the B 52's in my old neighhborhood.I wouldn't trade discovering the B 52's for anything in the world.
