Movie Reviews of Hanson - Underneath Acoustic LiveMovie Review: Hanson rocks . . . really. Summary: 5 Stars
It's going to be an uphill battle trying to convince other people that Hanson really and truly--and literally--rocks. But if anything can do it, it's definitely this DVD. I got interested in the band when I saw the Penny and Me video--how can you not be after seeing Tay? I bought this DVD when I saw it was being sold, and after watching I became a 100% fan.
The band itself is superb. These guys have talent in spades. I can't think of another band with such raw talent. They get up on stage, just the three of them and their instruments, and they play their hearts out. Every note is precisely where it's supposed to be. Muscially, this is a phenominal concert. Firstly, the vocals are heartfelt. I will admit that it takes some effort to understand what the lyrics are. But when you figure it out, you're always pleasantly surprised. The instrumentals are fabulous as well. I think the boys are particularly crisp on the piano. Zac's playing on "The Walk" is almost other-worldly. Tay keeps you hooked until the very end on all the other piano riffs, including I Will Come to You and With You in Your Dreams. Isaac's guitar playing is crisp and clean and is precisely where it needs to be.
The video itself is beautiful--the boys/men don't hurt, of course. The angeles really play to the music and to the atmosphere of the crowd. Watch out or you'll find yourself mesmerized. There is also a great behind the scene clip and a trailor for an upcoming documentary on the brothers.
In this concert, the boys cover three songs--Teach Your Children by Crosby Stills and Nash, Aint no Sunshine by Bill Withers, and Rip it Up by Little Richard--and they each get a solo. My Special attention should be paid to The Walk, Rock n Roll Razorblade, With you in Your Dreams, I Will Come to You, and Teach Your Children. The Walk is Zac's solo and his voice is angelic as he sings the heartfelt ballad. Rock n' Roll Razorblade directly precedes The Walk, and is its polar opposite. This is a rock song through and through, making any sane person tap their foot or clap their hands or even jump up and down. The boys' maturity is showcased on reworked versions of their older ballads, I Will Come to You and With You in Your Dreams--a very touching song told from the perspective of the dearly departed. If their talents shines anywhere, it is on Teach Your Children, a cover. Their harmonies are impeccable.
If you aren't a Hanson fan, then watch this DVD and you will be.
