 (6 Customer Reviews)
Lange's heavy-metal influence is evident here, with Adams serving up a fine approximation of an AC/DC song on "Hey Honey--I'm Packing You In," while "Thought I'd Died and Gone to Heaven" carries with it the unmistakable flavor of Def Leppard. But in general the emphasis, as always, is on hook-heavy rockers with catchy choruses like "Can't Stop This Thing We Started." Whereas on earlier records Adams had spiced up his songs with traces of social consciousness, this set is back squarely in love-and-lust territory.
Released 10 years after Adams's debut record, WAKING UP THE NEIGHBORS continues in the hard-rocking tradition of its predecessors, but there are some notable changes. Here, Robert "Mutt" Lange, producer of AC/DC and guiding hand behind a number of other successful hard rock acts, is now Adam's fulltime songwriting partner instead of Jim Vallance, who had co-written all of Adams's early hits. Many of the latter had a touch of heartland melancholy, but these songs are more concerned with the human heart. The love song "Everything I Do (I Do it for You)," featured in the movie ROBIN HOOD, was an enormous hit.

 One of his best albums
Bryan Adams comes through with another great album, this rates right up there with his Reckless album. Bryan Adams brings his hard hitting style to this album that really makes you want to turn up your stereo yet brings a softer side this his hit "Everything I do, I do it for you." If you like Bryan Adams I think you'll love this album.

Not One of His Best,But Very Good
Four years after his last studio recording,Bryan is back with Waking Up The Neighbors. This is a fifteen track album that contains the hits Can't Stop This Thing We Started,Do I Have To Say The words and Everything I do,I Do It For You. This is about five songs longer than his past albums,and for some,may be too much,but for those die hard Bryan fans,It may be just what the doctor ordered.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No His best album!!!
This album is a classic! Though it was a bit too long, songs like "Do I Have To Say The Words?", "Can't Stop This Thing We Started" and the all-time superb Bryan Adams power ballad "Everything I Do... I Do It For You", this album rocks! It's poppy and fancy! His best!
