good conversational russian
this cd wasnt quite what i was expecting. but i love it! im picking up an english accent AND russian!!

The most fun I've had with a language CD
First, to be realistic, it's a one-hour audio CD geared towards teaching some basic words and phrases. This program definitely wont take the place of actual language lessons, especially with a language such as Russian in which grammar is particularly important and tricky.
That said, I own several different Russian "listen while you drive" type programs, and this is the only one I have ever wanted to listen to over and over again. The background music is mellow and easy to get into. Also I really enjoy the somewhat flirty interaction between the two speakers! I've been taking private Russian lessons for a few months now, and listening to the Earworms CD is really helping to further solidify the language in my mind. I also think that a BIG part of learning a language (or anything, really) is to have fun with it, and the Earworms program is definitely FUN.
If you're going to buy a language CD, I highly recommend this one!

If I'd heard a sample of the music
...I'd NEVER had made the purchase!! I began learning Russian as a child using songs. So, I was very excited to find this product. But, the music (euro pop) is horrible and is a distraction. I had to force myself to listen through to the end.

excellent!
I never been good with learning languages. I hate the memorizing part of learning a language. This product is such a pleasant surprise in that it takes away all the pain. All you do is listen to the music and it sticks in your brain. I've listend to the product on my way to work for a couple of days and I already know much of the Russian phrases that are taught in the product. The only limitation is that you don't know how the words are spelled, so sometimes its difficult to tell exactly how the word is spoken. To advance in the language, ultimately, you will have to buy a real book to learn the grammer, etc. But its an excellent way to start. I can't wait for Volume 2 to come out.

Helpful for beginning vocabulary
Helpful for developing a little beginning vocabulary, but you'll be as lost as ever on grammar. Recommend if you are just starting your study of the Russian language. The music does seem to help you remember and there is a rudimentary guide so you can read along.
