Advantages: Great fun
Disadvantages: It takes two

...Have you ever wondered what's in a kiss? Oscar Wilde said, "A kiss may ruin a human life," which may seem a bit harsh. Kissing is, after all, a sign of affection between people. However, much more is hidden behind this simple, everyday act than many people realise. It's hard to ascertain how kissing started. One possibility is that it developed from the primitive method of weaning babies. Mothers would chew food and then transfer it to their infants, mouth to mouth. This died out relatively recently in remote parts of Europe but can still be found in less developed parts of the world. Primitive man believed that the air he breathed possessed magical power. As air is needed to sustain life, this wasn't unreasonable. However, kissing was seen as a sacred act in which the souls of a man and a woman became joined. Even today... Read review

Advantages: There's a surprising number of views on this...
Disadvantages: I think some of them are getting carried away!

...Do you like kissing? Do you like kissing better than snogging? Do you sometimes find that kissing is more sexual and more erotic somehow than, hummm, let me see, well SEX?? My dear dear friends you are not alone. From the very first century man has been waxing lyrical about that most extravagant and exciting of pastimes. I don’t meaning a kiss “to make it better”, or an air-kiss on both cheeks to say hello. Oh no. I mean KISSING kissing. I thought it would be fun to see if it is possible to determine just how many kisses are enough kisses! Any thoughts? Maybe one hundred pecks one after the other in a perpetual motion of repeated pastiche of affection? Perhaps long deep slow kisses are more your thing where the world stops revolving and all that is left is the single kiss. Or yet again perhaps to BE kissed, on the nape... Read review

Disadvantages: --

...1. In sign of love or friendship: to kiss someone because one likes it, simply. 2. For the physical contact with the other: as preliminary or in the street, he is allowed to kiss everywhere and for all! 3. In manner of white flag: what of better than a kiss to make up? 4. For the strength of the gesture: the biggest transfer of energy that either. 5. By taste: to savor the balm to lips of your lover or to taste there again... 6. For a "salute, goodbye": to kiss gives to the arrivals and the departures a small something more cordial. 7. As a thanks: a beautiful gesture that is worth the word well! 8. By enchantment: to awaken the princess in you, or to transform the toad, who runs you after, in beautiful charming prince. 9. By politeness: to other times, the kiss on the hand was current thing. The men kissed the hand... Read review

...Don’t you just love a good kiss and cuddle? The more passionate the better! You can feel your lips quivering as you move in, tilting your head to avoid the collision of noses. Your eyes close, the muscles in your neck tense, you feel your heart rate increase as the salivary glands go into overdrive, moistening your mouth, tongue and lips. In just a second or two your body has prepared you for one of the most stimulating and sensual experiences known to man. The kiss is an important part of human interaction. When we were children and plagued by countless accidents, when our fingers had been burned or our knees grazed, what did mum do? She kissed our pains away. When we’ve finally managed to conquer our times tables, or learned to spell that difficult word, some will give us a pat on the back, but mother will be more likely... Read review

Advantages: A bit of insight
Disadvantages: Its navel gazing

...Just a warning all! This is navel gazing of the worst kind possible. Rates do not matter at all. However comment if you want to. What is a kiss? Is it just part of the mating process or is there something more to it? A kiss can mean so much or so little it is quite horrific! The word has been written about so much by people far better at writing than me, but I am writing to try and validate it. Primarily to clear up some issues in my own life on a kisses meaning. I have always felt a kiss to be something very personal, even though I am a very tactile person. To kiss a person is the closest kind of contact you can have with someone. It is an expression of the strongest emotions a human being can ever have. It can be done for many reasons. As a part of foreplay, an expression of deep love or of great sorrow. Over the years it has... Read review

Advantages: All the best tracks from the summer.
Disadvantages: A couple of dull tracks, that I haven't heard before.

...Kiss Clublife Summer 2000 is an excellent album which features trance, house and uk garage music. All of the best from the summer! There are 2 cds both with 20 tracks on. In my opinion, the best tracks are Darude-Sandstorm, Trevor and simon-hands up and DJ luck and MC Neat. feat JJ-Masterblaster 2000. If you are a follower of dance music you will like all of the tracks but they are my favourites. There is also a good 23 page booklet on clubbing abroad. I love this album and it hasn't stopped playing since I brought it.... Read review

...This is a double album from 'Friday night kiss' - so as you'd expect, it's packed with pumping club choones. This is the best of house music from 1999. It contains 36 tracks including: 'You don't know me' - Armand Van Heldon featuring Duane Harden, 'You should be....' - Blockster, 'Gym and Tonic' - Spacedust, 'Insomnia' - Faithless, 'Praise you' - Fatboy Slim and 'Straight from the Heart' - Doolally. Personally, I like about half the album, as a lot of it's not really upbeat enough Buy it if... you like dancing round your bedroom!... Read review

Advantages: great colour, lasts a long time
Disadvantages: just a little too pricy but definatly worth it.

...Clinique "Air kiss" lip gloss is one of the best products that I can recommend. It is a bit pricy at about £12.00 but it is really worth it. The colour is a sparkly pink shine and it lasts for ages (unless you have your boyfriend trying to kiss you with it on cause then it comes off quite quickly.) It can go on top of normal lipstick as a sealer for a night time look or on its own for a natural look. All in all is it an excellent product.... Read review

Advantages: Remixes and re-recordings
Disadvantages: Old material

...This was Kiss' first compilation LP (not including The Originals) na dwas released due to the members having some time off from touring and also to help them sit down and write songs for their solo albums. There is one re-recording - Strutter '78 - with the rest being taken directly from the previous albums. Some songs were given a slight remix or have their endings changed, such as Detroit Rock City having a sudden stop instead of crashing car noises. In its original vinyl form, it was first released as a double LP in a very glitzy silver (platinum?) double sleeve. The CD however does not have this, but does manage to have all tracks confined to one disc. Not the best compilation Kiss have done, but bad by any means.... Read review

Advantages: a few good songs
Disadvantages: many poor songs

...I got Kiss - "House Nation" after seeing it TV advertised. This CD has all the house songs that were around at the time it was made in late 1999. The problem with this is that although it includes the good house songs that were on the radio at this time, it does not include good house songs that were a bit older and does include mediocre songs that were at the time to fill up the CD. Highlights are: Armand Van Helden's "You don't know me" Doolally "Straight from the heart" Da Click "Good Rhymes" Faithless "Insomnia" Although it does have a handful of good songs on it, a lot of them are fill in songs and I would only advise you to buy this if you like house music a lot or haven't got any similar dance + house compilations....
