10 Years Of Madhouse - Kerri Chandler

Advantages: Ronan Keating's hits all in the one place
Disadvantages: none

...Ok I was listening to this earlier so I thought I would put it all down in a review, I am a huge fan of Ronan right back to his Boyzone days, I guess he was the one in the group who always stood out to me, I think it was his voice as to me he as a great powerful and distinctive voice, I bought all his CD's and when this came out on 11 October 2004 I rushed out to get it much to my husbands disbelief he couldn't understand why I had to buy this as I had all the songs that was on it on other CD's but I just had to have it.

Advantages: Great songs, easy listening, fantastic!
Disadvantages: None

...I have always liked Ronan Keating's music from when he was in Boyzone to when he was manager of Westlife and his individual songs so I love his 10 years of songs CD! The songs are mainly easy listening love songs / boy band type songs and I like them because they always have beautiful lyrics which tell a meaningful story or message. They also sound really personal like he has written them about his own feelings and he has even used his wife in the video for "If Tomorrow Never Comes" and wrote "There's Somebody Else Now" after the birth of his son.
