Best Of Christmas, The [Digipak] - Various Artists

not quite the best christmas album...

Advantages: great selection of christmas classics
Disadvantages: singers doing covers of good songs,

- Peace. We also have Michael Andrews & Gary Jules - Mad World. So if anybody out there is feeling miserable or down this year, might be wise to skip past this downright depressing song before the piano does its tinkling introduction. 'And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad. The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had' Don't get me wrong I do like the song, but just because it was a christmas number 1 doesn't mean you need to stick it on an album which has so far managed to be reasonably up beat. You wouldn't put Bob the Builders Can we Fix it? or Girls Alouds Sound of the Underground on a christmas album, (well I hope not anyway) so why put on a track which could make you want to put your head in a gas oven? Overall I do love this album. Yes I did say love!! I've had it for a couple of years now and I ...

Review of Best Christmas Album In The World...ever, The - Various Artists

Puts the traditon back into Christmas

Advantages: Reminds you of christmas as a child and helps recreate a family christmas atmosphere
Disadvantages: Absoultely none

I bough this CD a few years ago now for my daughter and must admit it is a really festive CD. The songs are all ones that you will recongnise and love and so will your children over the years. To me Christmas is all about children and the songs odnthis CD bring that home to you. It's true christmas Carols and not these hyped up pop versions. We play this every christmas now and it is one of the highlights for my daughter. She knows christmas is just aroung the corner when we start playing the CD and she even knows the words to some of the songs. Guaranteed to get you in the spirit of things and will be the best thing you could spen your money on this year. CD's are vailable from £3-£5 from e-bay etc. The following songs are on the CD which you will most definately recongise with a few of them some of your favourites I ...

We Invented The Remix - Various Artists

Advantages: Some good remixes and the price
Disadvantages: Not many, some fillers but i suppose you get that with every album

This cd is an absolue bargain. I would highly recommend purchasing this as Bad Boy and Puff Daddy are well known for producing good remixes and the series of albums was a very good idea, another money spinning venture but one for the fans who had remixes on b sides of cd singles and recorded off the radio! Special Delivery - G Dep, Ghostface Killah, Keith Murray & Craig Mack. Quite a repetitive tune but a cult favourite. More likely to hear it in the clubs I Need A Girl Part 2 - Ginuwine, Mario Winans, P Diddy & Loon. Video and single released off the back of the successful part 1. Some say they prefer this version, i actual do and its one of the best tracks on the album Bad Boy For Life - P Diddy, Busta Rhymes & MOP. A shouty version of the original. Not bad but too much going on lyrically for me, my ears couldnt take it I Need ...
