FantasticNovember 30, 2008 Theresa Wagner(Charleston, SC) I really loved this Cd. It is worth getting just to hear some awesome versions of pop songs. I grew up on alot of these songs but have recently gotten into punk and so I thought it was awesome!! I think my favorite is the cover Baby One More Time.
my favorite cdDecember 29, 2007 K. Cowart(Dallas, ga United States) I love 90s music and lame pop from the early 2000s, and I also love classic punk. This combination of the new so-called-punk with my good ol' pop junk music is wonderful. This is my favorite CD.

The reason why the singer on Element 101's cover of "I'm Like A Bird" sounds like a girl is because it is a girl. They had/have (not sure if they're still recording) a female lead singer through most of their career. This CD is decent at best.
Not the best but still goodDecember 30, 2005 Ally 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I bought this cd since I l-o-v-e-d Punk Goes 80's. While there are some good songs on here (Bye,Bye,Bye ; The Way You Love Me; I Want It That Way), there are some that are just plain laughable. For example, the cover of ...Baby One More Time is just.. horrendous. And, Student Rick's Heaven Is A Place On Earth is just funny (the lead singer cannot hit those high notes). Also, the cover of I'm Like A Bird is... confusing. The lead singer sounds kinda like a girl. By NO means are ANY of the bands on this cd "punk". Seriously. Rufio is screamo/emo and so is the Starting Line, and both of those are the closest things to punk on the cd. It's still a great cd, though. It's just not as fantasmically awesome as Punk Goes 80's. (Get that instead!!! =))
Great cd!December 1, 2005 Kairi Sparrow(USA) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I got a burned copy from my brother a few years ago and thought it was just a cd he had put together, then I found out it was a real cd! I think it's really funny because the people singing put their own twist on the songs. It's pretty funny to listen to. I enjoy it.
