Haddaway was born in Trinidad, spend time in the US, and began his career in Germany. He’s been recording albums since 1993, and has had a few world wide hits during his long stretch as a recording artist. In America, Haddaway is remembered for one thing, and one thing only. “What is love / Baby, don’t hurt me / don’t hurt me / No more”. A single monster single driven by an infectious and unstoppable beat and synth line. Haddaway never had any other American success. He’s hardly needed any other. It reached #11 in the US, then became a hit again when Chris Kattan and Will Ferrell used it as the theme for their “Roxbury” characters on SNL and the film A Night At The Roxbury. It became a hit again in 2009. And that’s all the Haddaway any American needs to know. And that will do just fine.
The album Haddaway is actually the American re-release of his debut album, The Album. It’s as predictable as they come. Track after track repeats the formula of “What Is Love”: very upbeat, bright synths, basically mindless dance music. Even a version of Bob Marley’s “Stir It Up” does little to show any kind of variety at all. The track list here is different from the album the rest of the world got, but it doesn’t matter much. Haddaway was a one trick pony, and he only had one song that would stick in your head for any period of time. On the plus side, you pretty much can’t be sad when you’re listening to Haddaway, and that head bop that starts with “What Is Love” only stops when the album does. This is absolute music to shake your stuff to, and it won’t make you think at all. If that’s what you’re in the mood for, then Haddaway is for you. Otherwise…listen to “What Is Love” and put it away. That’s about all there is here. [First added to this chart: 11/16/2017]
