The much-anticipated follow-up to their classic The Simpsons Sing the Blues and Songs in the Key of Springfield, The Yellow Album brings Bart, Lisa, Maggie, Marge, and Homer Simpson to a whole 'nother level of the game. Accompanied by a diverse selection of backup musicians (including George Clinton and the P-Funk All-Stars), the Simpsons take aim at a number of genres, from Bart's affection for rap ("Love?" and "The Ten Commandments of Bart"), Lisa's AOR duet with Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart for the Eurythmics cover "Sisters Are Doin' It for Themselves" to Homer's sensitive cover of Willie Nelson's "Funny How Time Slips Away" with Linda Ronstadt. Homer's range is limited. Bart's diction is spotty. But Apu (the Kwik-E-Mart proprietor) and the Squishees are the big surprise. Their cut, "Twenty-Four Hours a Day," is an embittered piece of working-class electro-funk that rivals the best in modern protest music (Springsteen, eat your heart out.) --Rob O'Connor

Customer Reviews

Unredeemed junk
I'm as big a Simpsons fan as anyone, but this is hideous.
There are four Simpons-derived albums on the market.
Two are comprised of excerpts from the TV show. Those are
both terrific 4-5 star albums. There is another album of
all original (not from the TV show) material, The Simpsons Sing
The Blues. That album was weak and a major disappointment, but
it did feature a few (and only a few) amusing moments.

This? The best moments on this CD are the bands of silence
that separate the tracks. How anyone thought this was worth
recording is beyond me. Why anyone spent money to release
and promote it is WAY beyond me. It isn't funny and the music
[stinks].

Even if you are a completist, you don't need this. Trust me:
I am a completist. I bought it and wish I hadn't. There is
NOTHING on this album that merits your time or money.

Disappointing at best...
As with many of these reviewers, I am a Simpsons fan... Some even call me obsessed, what with my collection of episodes on tape and all... Unfortunately, when I picked up the ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE CD, I was excited... Little did I know what PAIN I was in for... there are maybe two good songs on the CD... PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS EVEN IF YOU ARE A HUGE FAN OF THE SHOW!!!

I am shocked that something this bad was created
Any true fan of the Simpsons will not believe their ears when they hear this pile. This album is filled with sticky sweet love songs, and cheap sounding rap tunes. The thing that sucks the most is that it takes itself so seriously. What happened to all the sarcasam and satire the Simpsons are famous for?? This album feels out of place and VERY dated. Save your money and buy "Songs in the Key of Springfeild" which features very funny music and dialog from the actual show.
