Victor Toledo Said: Hassle the Hoff! ( May. 14th 2010 )
I really enjoy David's music. He is wonderful at making my cats hide under the bed and my wife leave the house. I can spend hours of solitude enjoying Airwolf and Knight Rider while absorbing the musical waves of Hasselhoff. My favorite songs are "La Isla Bonita" (which he demonstrates his vocal range), "No Way To Be In Love" (although the Knight Rider series episode version of Let It Be Me is far superior) and "Our First Night Together" - He Rocks!
David does for music what Dolemite, Ted V. Mikels and Godfrey Ho did for the video screen. He is a true genius!
Sid the Elf Said: You Don't Hassle the Hoff ( Nov. 28th 2009 )
Just when we thought Seagal's Songs from the Crystal Cave aka Songs from the Burger King Drive Thru was insanely hilarious we stumbled across Baywatch legend David Hasselhoff's greatest hits. Even more perplexing then the fact that there are more then 100 reviews is the fact that he's got enough music to fill a "greatest hits" cd. The only way possible people are giving this one 5 stars is either because they're like us and rating it high just for laughs, or they are extremely self medicated and have no access to any other music other then Michael Bolton. His cover of Secret Agent Man will surely send the great Johnny Rivers into a state of disbelief to the point where he can never write another song out of fear the Hoff will destroy another masteriece. So yet again we have found another great stocking stuffer for your worst enemy or drunk uncle to wish them a Merry Christmas in the worst way possible. Our only suggestion would be to change the cover from that glamor shot to the picture of his wasted attempt at polishing off a cheeseburger.
Adam Clark Said: Like Fire from The Gods... ( Nov. 24th 2009 )
My first exposure to this magnificent album came in the summer of '03 while I was cruising local record stores for Peabo Bryson records. Near the checkout stand was a box labeled "free to good home", and inside I found Mr. Hasselhoff's wondrous collection. I was stunned: who in their right mind could give something like this away? How dare they discount the personal tastes of 50,000,000 German people? I laid my Peabos down alongside some Jujubes, and asked the clerk if it was a mistake.
"No mistake, dude" he said, his multiple piercings jingling like Christmas. "The boss found that old crap in the back and tossed it up front. Can't sell it, so knock yourself out."
"Old crap"? I thought. Philistine. Still, my elation at the good fortune I was having kept my rage in check, and after I paid, I drove back in my Vespa to the apartment I shared with my aging mother and went to my room. I sat on the edge of my bed with the collection, munching Jujubes and staring mesmerized at the album cover. Something about the look on his face - that all-knowing smirk - hinted at unfathomable mysteries that were no doubt contained within.
It was then that I heard his voice:
"Go on, 'Hot Shot City'", he said. "It will take you on the ride of your life."
Never one to ignore the voices in my head, I put the cd into my portable player and selected the track. What I heard was electric revelation: David's soaring voice blazed through my perceptions like Prometheus bringing fire down from Mt. Olympus. Tears streamed from my eyes and I nodded along, knowing that it was for this knowledge that I had been born. Yes, it was particularly good. Soon, I was dancing in my underpants to "Do The Limbo Dance", frightening the cats and causing my mother to curse at me and turn the volume up on "The Price is Right." I have never felt so free, before or since.
Please, do yourself a favor and buy this album. It would be a bargain at twice the price, though I was lucky enough to get it for free.
NeuroSplicer Said: HASSY HAS ONLY BEST SONGS - THESE ARE SIMPLY THE BESTER! ( May. 23rd 2009 )
For years the music industry has been shamelessly promoting semi-talented artists (such as U2 and Bruce Springsteen) in an effort to inexplicably hold back once-in-a-century phenomena like David Hasselhoff. Not any more!
This album is the penultimate of trans-genre hits: ranging from YANNI's yawns to ANTHRAX headbangings, David's music will touch you no matter how you keep your hair and what color clothes you favor.
Moreover, clinical studies have shown that students who were listening to Hassy's tunes while doing math scored significantly higher than Hassy-free controls. Are you to deny your children the extra advantage?
A true classic for all ages!

William Daigle Said: The Majesty of Hasselhoff saved my marriage! ( May. 16th 2009 )
5 days ago I listened to this CD for the first time and I've been in euphoria since. After finding out that he died I went to the local elementary school, acquired a small boy, and sacrificed him to hades in hopes of bringing him back to make another CD. My neighbor doesn't like Hasselhoff though and she called the police, I got arrested and my dog died after drinking the pool water since I couldn't clean it. David Hasselshlop saved my soul however.
