Wow,that is pretty much all I can say after listening to this CD.The songwriting on here is absolutely amazing.In fact I came real close to giving this a 5 star review (which I very rarely give) it really is that good.
Bryan Adams has the perfect voice for good time rock and roll,you won't find any show offs in this band either,every instrument fits the songs perfectly as does Adams' voice
The CD starts off strong with 'Is Your Mama Gonna Miss Ya' and just stays strong throughout,sure there are some hits that you've heard over and over like 'Do I Have To Say The Words' and (everything I do) I Do It For You,and Can't Stop This Thing We Started,but I honestly believe it is the songs that didn't get as much airplay that make this a 'must have' CD...I truly can't recommend this highly enough...the lyrics are cleaver and it's obvious thought went into them,my favorite song on here is 'There Will Never Be Another Tonight' but really every song is a classic and deserves a good listen...I can't end this review without mentioning the producer 'Robert John Mutt Lange' who definitely put his touch on this CD (he was the genius behind 'Highway to hell' and 'pyromania' not to mention most of the 'shania twain albums' in fact on most of the songs here you can almost hear Def Leppard doing these songs,no the music isn't nearly as heavy as Def Leppard but the vocal style of Bryan Adams sounds very very close to Joe Elliot of Def Leppard...this CD ROCKS!!!
The Upside - Every single song,the production is top notch,and the band and Bryan himself know how to play perfectly to a song rather then show off,the songwriting is the real star here,Bryan Adams is a master and most anyone in the industry could learn a thing or two from him
The Downside - There really isn't any,if I would have one small comment it would be that at 15 songs the CD does run a bit long but with songs this good you don't really feel bored,most other artists if they were to release 15 songs it would put you to sleep,but Bryan pulls it off
The Bottom Line - If you love good time music,stuff that you can dance to and smile this is for you...I recommend it very highly...run out and buy this,especially at this price you won't regret it..donutman says so!!!

This album is one of the all time classics, and when you listen to it you will see why, almost every song is awsome. Mutt Langue, hot off producing Def Leppard's Hysteria, took the Def Leppard sound he helped create and mixed it with Bryan Adams to create a studio album that Adams has not come anywhere near too since quality wise, pitty really.

This has to be along with 1984's Reckless, one of Bryan Adams'
best albums. This album includes the super smash hit single of
1991 Everything i do i do it for you, still to this day one of
the most popular love songs ever written. But this also has some
great rockers too, such as Can't stop this thing we started,There will never be another tonight, Hey honey,im packing
you in and All i want is you. This was the last great album by
B.A. after this his songwriting and music started going downhill
and he has never been able to recapture the magic from this golden timeframe.

WAKING UP THE NEIGHBOURS is the last great album that Bryan Adams did until ROOM SERVICE. It sounds a lot like Def Leppard (he used that band's producer, "Mutt" Lange, for this one), but somewhat earthier. This album contains plenty of great rockers, but also increases his ballad quotient. His next couple of albums would turn him into a fairly faceless adult contemporary artist, but here he was still good for some great field-day-ready rockers.

Before I mention the other songs from this album, my favorite song on here is "Thought I'd Died and Gone To Heaven." It is such a strong record with the bridges and the hanging-with-the-fellows big chorus of woooohhh, wooooooooooodhhhhhhhh. It is one of Bryan Adams' best songs to date and it should have gone higher than No. 13 on the charts in spring 1992. But this album is full of big rockers, solid rhythms, and unique songwriting. I like Do I Have to Say the Words more than the overplayed "Everything I Do (I Do It For You)". Everything's kind of LOUD for a power ballad, but that sappiness is all too obvious on that one. I also like "Can't Stop This Thing We Started", "There'll Never Be Another Tonight" and the big closer, "Don't Drop That Bomb On Me." Three crank-it-to-11 rockers that still sound strong today! Bryan really got better as an artist with this album!
