    One of the best albums of the Chipmunks' first renaissance. Great covers of excellent songs, and Bagdasarian Jr.'s voice work is on point, with a mixed tone that is 100% Chipmunks, but a tone that is pleasant to even an adult ear. Take a Chance on Me is particularly good.

      sounds great when slowed down mainly bette Davis eyes, Jesse's girl, whip it, and heartbreaker
