Editorial Review:
Shhh ...Don't Tell offers edgy new characters with 12 skits and seven hilarious new songs - definitely Parental Advisory material - from today's most popular movie comedy star Shhh ...Don't Tell is Sandler's fifth album, after two double platinums and two golds. Shhh ...Don't Tell Screw that, this is funny stuff - tell everybody!
Description of Shhh...Don't Tell:
Given his turn into kinder, gentler movie roles, longtime fans of former SNL star Sandler's pubescent potty humor should welcome this long-overdue collection of sketches and musical parodies. "Low-brow" doesn't quite do the album's relentlessly puerile, if impressively loopy, bent justice; with an orbit that rarely strays much below mid-thigh or above the beltline, it's arguably the most crotch-centric album of the comedian's career. While at least one of the recurring characters (clueless octogenarian daredevil Mr. Pibb) quickly wears thin, bits like "Wolfman" and "Calling Home" triumph by pushing familial dysfunction to surreal extremes--and then some. While none quite match the charming insouciance of "The Chanukah Song," the musical numbers here are often the main attraction, from the mock Brit-punk self-love anthem "The Amazing Willy Wanker" and "The Mayor of Pussytown" (a hip-hop boast-fest to underendowment of every stripe) to "Stan the Man," Sandler's bittersweet ode to his late father. Longtime collaborator Alan Covert is again featured, as are cameos by fellow SNL alums Molly Shannon, David Spade, and Rob Schneider, whose chemistry with Sandler provides some of the album's most sublime silliness. --Jerry McCulley
Shhh...Don't Tell Reviews:
Perfect album 
2008-03-06 - I has cost a little getting this album because in spain not sell it, but it is one of the best works of Adam Sandler. I am very fan of him and I am delighted to have succeeded.
I am also very happy for the delivery of service that has AMAZON and continue buying there.
Sorry for my english!

2007-01-11 - this is his newest gig and it is just as good as the other ones
3 and a half stars 
2006-06-22 - I wish amazon would allow you to give half stars, because this album is better than a three but not quite a four. The stuff that works is really funny, but unfortunately the stuff that doesn't work really stinks. Rob Schneider is hilarious in "Whore! Where are you!" playing a wanna be tough guy (of undefined ethnicity) who is actually a p-whipped wuss. You may have heard "Gay Robot" which is amusing in a crude, semi-homophobic way. "Sid & Alex" is funny because of the delivery and the sheer peculiarity of it. As far as the songs go, "The Mayor of Pussytown" is a hilarious send up of gangsta rap with a twist, and "Secret" is funny for its absurdly inane chorus. However, much of the rest of the album is uninspired and only mildly amusing, and strangely enough most of the funniest moments come from contributing players and not Sandler himself. If you're a big fan of Sandler's comedy then don't hesitate to pick this up, but "caveat emptor" to all others.
Some good, some terrible 
2006-01-29 - I can't stand Adam Sandler's movies but his albums have always been consistently funny. This is the most inconsistently funny album he's ever produced. A few of the laugh out loud skits include "Gay Robot", "Sid and Alex" and "Calling Home"; the charcters in the latter skit seem to be all played by Sandler and his voices and lines are gut-bustingly funny. And "Gay Robot" is just plain hilarious. Of course, this has its fair share of singing from Sandler and "Secret" is, by far, the funniest. Unfortunately, most of the rest of these skits are so tired and boring that you have to wonder if Sandler hasn't hit a wall as far as his album creativity goes. "Wolfman" is SO painfully unfunny that you just end up squirming uncomfortably waiting for something remotely amusing to materialize. And the Pibb skits, his latest recurring character, are just dumb and flat. Some skits even reach the realm of irritating such as "Creepin' On The Mayor" which involves a character hiding in a garbage can from people who want to beat him up. That's it. Wow, that's funny.
You're better off focusing on just five or six tracks and ditching the rest (Sid and Alex, Gay Robot, Secret, Boss and the Secretary, Mule Session, Newlyweds-Sleepyheads, and Calling Home should do it for you).
Oh, and a quick response to all of the people who are obsessed with this album being "dirty". Have you people been asleep for the past 13 years?? That's what makes a Sandler album is his filthy and lewd talk! Sandler's funniest bits are the dirty ones and it's always been that way!
Inexcusible 
2005-09-13 - This is garbage, any way you sniff it. I was a big fan of his earlier CDs but if you're looking for laughs here there are only about three of them. This CD reminds me of Adam Sandler's movie career in regards to how his movies are getting continually worse. This, however, ups the ante; there are no redeeming qualities about this CD at all. I can't be emphatic enough to potential buyers: don't. It's very, very bad. It's the culmination of his tired humour, which seems to get worse as the years go by, combined with clearly very little effort put in here. I'd be surprised if he spent more than a lazy week completing it from start to end.
