"I have just received Smile's newest album and it has exceeded all my expectations(after reading the other review...I was a bit shaky)Smile.dk still brings you their signature cuteness with their album. Smile.dk is the best thing for rough days..trust me.Domo Domo Domo-Smile's first single for "Golden Sky" an incredible pop song with a Japanese chorus!Golden Sky-Most likely Smile's next single. Smile brings back their infamous "ai ai ai" with this track. Great beat and awesome lyricsCome Chameleon-I swear the first three tracks are instant hits. This song fills Smile's animal(butterflies,dragonflies, and now chameleons)Great beat(like all Smile songs)Ding Ding Dong-The great beats continue to happen with "Ding Ding Dong" Faster paced then the aforementioned.This Is The Time(Eoo Eoo)-The pace of the album finally slows down with this song. Nice tropical like sound. Moderate tempoDon't Believe Your Leaving-The tempo picks up yet again with this title. Nice pick up from "This is the Time"First Time Lovers-Beat is very much like "Don't Believe Your Leaving" except this has lyrics sorta like "Petit Love"(see: Smile Paradise)I'll Be There-Moderate tempo. Same cutesy sound you expect from Smile.dkSmile-Tropical sound returns with this title. Nice sound after hearing the same beat over and overMaybe-The slow song for this album(yes every smile album has a "slow song")Great song and lyrics. Definitely one of the best Smile songs I have ever heard. Hopefully it will be a single.Tokyo-The special Japanese only track! What a track this is. The dance track for the album. Could easily go into a Dance Dance Revolution mix! A great way to end an already incredible album!!This is by far one of Smile's best work! I can now see why this was delayed so many times, to perfect it! Although not as good as "Future Girls," "Golden Sky" is lightyears ahead of Smile's first album "Butterfly." I encourage all dance/europop fans to try this album out NOW!!KEEP SMILING!! =)"

"Smile continues to sing beautifully with their newest album, and Robert Uhlmann, who produced their past CDs and wrote many of their songs, is still at it and has composed some fantastic songs. In my opinion, the two Japanese bonus tracks "Domo Domo Domo" and "Tokyo" are two of the best songs on the CD, although the other songs are also very catchy.



1. Domo Domo Domo - When I first heard Domo Domo Domo I was immediately attached. It has a great, fun beat, and the chorus is irrisistably catchy (sung in Japanese). Translated, 'Domo' means 'Please' so, in English, the title of this song is 'Please Please Please'. 10/10



2. Golden Sky - Smile.dk bring back their famous "ai ai ai" with this song. Like all of their music, this is a great dance song. If you like 'Butterfly' you will like this. 10/10



3. Come Chameleon - When I first heard this song I really didn't like it. However, after a few listens it grew on me. The tune is quite different to their other songs (probably because somebody unknown wrote it), but likeable nevertheless. I will rate this 9/10 because it really isn't as good as their others.



4. Ding Ding Dong - I thought the lyrics to this song was really quite weird ('ding ding dong, there's a ringing for me, it's a magical mystery melody'). When I play the CD, I usually skip this song as it can get rather boring (and there is much better ones near the end!). It seems like a bit of a filler, but is still not bad. 8/10



5. This Is The Time (Eoo Eoo) - Great song. This one grew on me. Great music and singing. I love the echoing "Eoo" thoughout the song. Very catchy. 10/10



6. Don't Believe You're Leaving - This song sounds surprisingly like Abba (but a bit more, well, 'technical'). Great use of sound effects, and a very grasping chorus. 10/10



7. First Time Lovers - Excellent sound effects throughout the song, with a kind of 'choppy' tune at the beginning which is certainly 'unique'. This is also rather "Abbary", and is very likeable. 10/10



8. I'll Be There - This is my favourite song on the CD. It has a very memorable chorus which is very catchy. The song is overall very bouncy and fun to listen to. Excellent singing by both girls. 11/10



9. Smile - I was interested to see how this song would sound, since it is basically advertised in their own name. Although this track isn't as strong as some of the other songs, it does have a good tune. It grew on me and will probably grow on you too. 9/10



10. Maybe - Here's a nice slow song with lovely tunes and singing. 8/10



11. Tokyo (Japanese Track) - I loe the start to this song, and the chorus is also really catchy. It has a kind of Japanese sound (which is imaginable considering its called Tokyo). This is another one of my favourites. 10/10"

"Since there's no track list I thought I'd review the whole CD track by track.



1. Domo Domo Domo - A good beaty song with the chorus in Japanese, which is good or bad depending on whether u understand Japanese.



2. Golden Sky - Another Japanese sounding upbeat song about "flying to the Golden Sky" with the one you love.



3. Come Chameleon - Sounds more like europop mixed with Japanese beats, and has a good chorus.



4. Ding Ding Dong - Definitely euro beats here, like the two part harmony in the chorus.



5. This is the Time - Slower than some of the others, but still has a beat and more of a Caribbean feel.



6. Don't Believe You're Leaving - One of the best songs on the album I think. It sounds a bit like a Steps song.



7. First Time Lovers - The title pretty much describes what the lyrics are about. Has a nice beat, but weaker than most of the other songs.



8. I'll Be There - Great beaty pop music with nice lyrics "If you really need me, I'll Be There" etc.



9. Smile - Similar sound to I'll Be There.



10. Maybe - The only slow song on the album, sounds like a slow Roxette song. Has a soft, melodic chorus like Counting On You (From Future Girls).



11. Tokyo - My favourite song on here. It has a more uptempo beat than the other Japanese sounding songs on here. Would be a good song for DDR.



Overall this album has fewer catchy melodies than the Smile.dk's other 3 and some of the songs sound too similar. The best songs are: Domo Domo Domo, Golden Sky, Come Chameleon, Don't Believe You're Leaving, and Tokyo."
