  Dizzy Up the Girl - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dizzy Up the Girl is an album by Goo Goo Dolls, released in 1998 on Warner Bros.
"Dizzy" was released as a single, peaking at #9 on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks chart on January 5, 1999.
This was originally written for the soundtrack of the 1998 film City of Angels, but it was later included on Dizzy Up the Girl.

 Ralphy's CD Reviews: The Goo Goo Dolls - CD Dizzy up the girl
Songs like "Slide", "Dizzy", "All eyes on me", "Hate this place", "Broadway" and ofcourse "Iris" are up-tempo beauties and slower songs like "Acoustic #3" and "Black balloon" are also thoroughly enjoyable and even the rougher Takac-songs have a certain edge to them.
It sounds rougher around the edges than "Dizzy up the girl", but I don't really see a drastic change in style between then and now.
"Dizzy up the girl" sounds poppier, but "Superstar Carwash" isn't a heavy alternative or punk record either.

Gutterflower is alnother amazing Goo album, but doesn't quite come up to the standard of Dizzy up the girl.
Dizzy Up The Girl is a very listenable album from a band which should receive more accolade that they're given.
There are a couple of reasonable songs: Dizzy, Slide and Black Balloon but in the context of the album they sound too similar to the rest of the fare.

What makes Dizzy up the Girl so special is that it doesn't just have that new sound that is what really made Goo Goo Dolls super-popular (first hinted at in A Boy Named Goo, but not fully realized yet), but that they also put all the great songs together into a nearly perfect album.
Dizzy: A very hard rocking riff leads us off and then the chorus comes in which arguably has my favorite guitar riff John has written.
My 3 favorite songs are Dizzy Up The Girl, what a great fast paced song that keeps you moving through the whole song, Slide and Iris, which is my favorite song on the whole Cd.

 Dizzy Up The Girl | The Onion - America's Finest News Source
It's easy to get mixed up; the band sounds so much like late-period Replacements, you'd think it came from the same scene, if not the same womb.
Dominated by jangly guitars and bloated, shimmery choruses, albums like A Boy Named Goo (with its smash ballad, "Name") and the new Dizzy Up The Girl (with its smash ballad, "Iris," from the City Of Angels soundtrack) are stocked from beginning to end with catchy radio singles.
But there's enough anthemic polish on Dizzy Up The Girl to keep it consistently suitable for long-term car-radio airplay.

 CD Review-The Goo Goo Dolls, "Dizzy Up The Girl"
But I digress, because we are here to talk about 1998's "Dizzy Up The Girl".
Most of the songs on "Dizzy Up The Girl" are laden with pop sensibility and catchy (but respectable) hooks.
The Dolls' radio-ready route seems to be nothing more than the natural progression of the band (see Aerosmith since 1989 for a similar and equally-appealing progression) - and that's a decent alibi for a band gone pop.

 Goo Goo Dolls: Dizzy Up The Girl: Pitchfork Record Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
So it would be a disservice to Pitchfork readers everywhere to simply state that all existing copies of Dizzy Up The Girl should be buried under a nice fresh steaming mound of bat guano.
Yeah, I admit it, I admire the Goo Goo Dolls for surviving ten years on a modicum of ability (and indeed, I sort of expected them to hit it big a lot sooner), but that doesn't necessarily mean I have to like their albums.
So Dizzy Up The Girl is little more than a mismatched procession of hamhanded hooks, with John "Bon Jovi" Rzeznik putting as much grungy soul into his vocals as he possibly can.

 Rough Edge: Goo Goo Dolls CD Reviews
Opener's "Dizzy," "Slide" and "Broadway" are all really enjoyable and serve to make you realize just how good this band can be when given room to breathe.
Picking up where "Broadway" left off is "Black Balloon." Vocalist Johnny Rzeznik begins to hit his full potential with this song.
His delivery on stand-out songs such as the short but sweet "Acoustic #3" and lead single from the City Of Angels soundtrack "Iris" is just stunning.

 Future Shop: Music: Rock: Goo Goo Dolls - Dizzy Up The Girl
On first hearing, the Goo Goo Dolls sound like the Replacements' distant cousins, full of trashy rock bravado tempered by intelligent, often tender lyricism and a penchant for combining ringing acoustic guitars with dirtier sounds for a rich sonic stew.
In fact, DIZZY UP THE GIRL finds the Dolls moving further away from the Replacements sound than ever before, with a definite '90s influence to the proceedings.
The youthful, energetic spirit that makes DIZZY UP THE GIRL an exciting bit of rock & roll is matched at every step by a world-weariness that gives the jangly alt-rock tunes an air of maturity.

Could you whisper in my ear The things you wanna feel I'd give ya anythin' To feel it comin' Do you wake up on your own?
And I'll do anythin' you ever dreamed to be complete Little pieces of the nothin' that fall Oh May Put your arms around me What you feel is what you are And what you are is beautiful Oh May Do you wanna get married, or run away?
Baby's fl balloon makes her fly I almost fell into that hole in your life And you're not thinking 'bout tomorrow 'Cause you were the same as me But on your knees A thousand other boys could never reach you How could I have been the one?
