Greatest Ever Driving Songs - Various Artists

Advantages: Loads of Phil Collins songs
Disadvantages: Loads of Phil Collins songs messed up

...An album of remixed Phil Collins tracks performed by r&b and hip hop artists. Risky, seeing as the man himself as churned out classic after classic and as you can imagine it wasnt well received by, well anyone. I did however purchase because i like Phil Collins and i like hip hop & r&b so i took a chance. I should have spent my money on buying that indoor ten pin bowling set instead. Saying that there is a couple of decent tunes on here but as a whole, not the greatest ive spent my money on Tracks Another Day In Paradise - Ray J & Brandy. The single to come off this album was received quite well, not a bad video and the brother sister duet that everyone wanted to hear. An up to date version but not better than the original. You may find me saying that more often than not Sussudio - Ol Dirty Bastard. Shocking. No resemblence... Read review

Advantages: All the classics on one album
Disadvantages: Some tracks not really classed as power ballads

...provides good driving music. 08: CHER - IF I COULD TURN BACK TIME Not really my kind of music, but is a good example of the strength in Cher's vocal talent and is a good track for any avid Cher fans out there. 09: ALICE COOPER - POISON At the risk of upsetting any Alice Cooper fans, this is one of the few big hits that the snake lover had in the UK. Another good driving hit but not really a power ballad in my eyes. 10: MR MISTER - KYRIE I don't think any Mr Mister offering could ever beat 'Broken Wings' which is what originally launched them into the charts. Saying that, Kyrie has a good melodic tone and fits in well on a power ballad album. 11: MARILLION - KAYLEIGH Before Fish departed from the band, he gave us a lasting reminder of the true sound of Marillion with this excellent track. For anyone not familiar... Read review

Advantages: Good songs
Disadvantages: No driving songs

...I was so pleased when I received this cd as I thought that it would be the perfect accompaniment cd for driving. On a plus side yes the music is very good and on occasions I do enjoy listening to it but the one thing that makes this cd totally unsuitable for it's genre is the fact that there is not a single song on it that is actually remotely about driving. What about song with driving themes? surely thats what a driving cd should have on it. I personally cannot believe that they have managed to cram 101 songs together and obviously not even thought about the fact that none of them are driving orientated. I would say purchase this cd set if you want to listen to some good music but don't expect there to be any driving songs.... Read review
