Pros: Dizzy, Slide
Cons: Many lyrics would be perfect for a suicide note
Summary: I really hate using the term sellout. It implies that an artist has given up his art in the name of more of the green stuff, and I don't think that's true in most cases. Bands need to change in order to survive the initial flash that comes after ...

Pros: Amazing melodies, deep heartfelt lyrics, and great musicianship
Cons: Although Goo Goo Dolls are great, their good songs are spread out.
Summary: Dizzy Up the Girl by the Goo Goo Dolls is an amazing album full of emotions that only everyone can relate to. When listening to this album, its best to put on a good pair of headphones, turn the music up fairly high, and just... ...

Pros: A couple inoffensive hit singles
Cons: Yawn
Summary: Outside the main campus center of my tiny private college, there stands a hideous, rusted-out metal sculpture that resembles a giant brown lollipop with spikes driven through it. It’s quite possibly the ugliest piece of artwork I’ve ever seen,...

Pros: Robby Takac is awesome!
Cons: What cons?
Summary: I ran right out to the store to buy this CD after finding out that the Goo Goo Dolls sang the magical song "Black Balloon". I really feel that every single song on this album is the strongest that it could possibly be. Vocalist Johnny Rzeznik leads in...

Pros: -Great Lyrics, -Great guitar tunes, -Great singing, Inspiring Lyrics, A Great CD...
Cons: Art has no cons
Summary: This CD has lots of brilliant music on it. When I came in to write a review on this CD, I saw that it had already earned a well deserved 4.5 stars. Many CDs have groups of songs that have similar beats, similar melodies, and boring, unimaginative lyrics....

Pros: Black Balloon, awesome songs that will blow you away
Cons: Robby Takac should sticked to bass on this one.
Summary: You know, as clichéd (I know, it’s probably spelled wrong) as this sounds, it isn’t often that a truly GREAT album comes out. An album that will touch your soul and capture your heart, and never let go ‘til the ending guitar on “Hate This Place.” You...

Pros: Great Sound, Displays their all around talent
Cons: People bash them for "changing" their style -- to me it's just growing!
Summary: This album is the Goo Goo Dolls' sixth album. The sounds on this album differ from their previous album, A Boy Named Goo. Throughout the years the band has gotten a lot of slack for changing their sound. Personally I think they are just expanding their...

Pros: Everything
Cons: No set style
Summary: Dizzy Up The Girl is a cd that has many many different types of songs. Slide is a great pop/rock song. It had enough strength to take the Goo's all the way to the top. Iris, in my opinion, is the best love song ever. I would buy this cd just to hear...

Pros: Great album all around!
Cons: Even I will admit that "Iris" got played WAY too much for it's own good.
Summary: After the "Superstar Carwash" album and a few tunes on one of the Nightmare on Elm St. soundtracks, these guys had me hooked. Dizzy Up the Girl is a great album. You have to have been living under a rock to not have heard "Iris"; a...

Cons: Iris
Summary: I bought this album because of Slide, a song I heard- I love that Song. Anyway, I LOVE Slide and Black Balloon- and HATE Slide- They are dumb songs. I like this album much better than any other by the Goo- Goo Dolls. One thing good about it is that...

Pros: Slide, Black Balloon and Iris are some of the best songs ever written
Cons: Not all songs are by John Rzeznik
Summary: John Rzeznik of the Goo Goo Dolls is a lyrical genius. His expressions of love, desire and passion are near perfection as he explains his intentions with brilliant romantic phrases and offers.
"Slide," is so good that listening to...
