Advantages: All the best songs in one place Disadvantages: Not worthwhile for the aged-old fan
Being the impressionable 21-year old, I'm always keen to find new music to add to my collection or taste. But sometimes it helps to go back a few years as well.... A couple of years ago, if you'd have asked me to name a couple of Cure songs, I'd have said "what?" and the closest I'd be able to come is say "isn't their lead singer a bit 'eccentric' for an old man?"....
However, upon a visit to the iTunes store and typing in 'The Cure', I recognised the first 6 songs on offer. How is that so? Well, I thought maybe it would be because Robert Smith & co have been doing rather well off royalty money from adverts/theme tunes/backing music in recent year.....no, it's because they've produced music that has stood the test of time and is just as good now as it was then. It's music that still gets played in rock nightclubs, radio stations, TV ...
Advantages: Great tracks old and new Disadvantages: None
I am a big fan of Whitney Houston, I think she has a beautiful, moving voice that has not been beaten since. I have already done a review on her first album, Whitney Houston but by far my favourite album of hers has to be Whitney, The GreatestHits!
Just a little background on the queen of pop herself incase you haven't heard of her:
Whitney Houston was born on August 9th, 1963 and is an extremely successful recording artist and actress. She comes from a very successful family and upbringing, her aunt is Dionne Warwick and her godmother is Aretha Franklin. Music was in the blood and she starting singing gospel music in her local church at aged 11. In the words of Clive Davis, written on one of the booklets that comes with the CD's, "For the next generation, there's a singer that combines the fiery gospel of Aretha Franklin ...
Advantages: original / energetic Disadvantages: 1 song = without jar nothing (why why lol)
P.O.D's album is not just their album with the incredible single 'alive', it is an album, with that amazing song, but also with 14 other magnificent songs all excellent in their own way. This album was produced by Howard Benson, co - produced by P.O.D and mixed by Chris Lord-Aige, all professionals in their respective fields. And by golly are P.O.D a 'professional' rock band, what an amazing collection of hauntingly powerful and rocking music. The first song on the album is 'set it off', and it does set the album off in an energetic and enthusiastically rigorous way.
Next is the hit single alive which is one of those songs you will listen to, love, listen to 100 times until you are sick of it, then not listen to it for a few years and then you will hear it again and instantly love it again! 'Boom' is another thunderous track ...

Album Notes
P.O.D.: Truby (vocals, guitar); Sonny (vocals); Marcos (guitar); Traa (bass guitar); Wuv (drums). Few bands slapped with the nu-/rap-metal tag while in their prime survived the early 2000's metal sub-genre overload. For P.O.D., however, what may have appeared to some as overnight success was actually the result of years of dues-paying. Two indie releases and miles of hard touring set the band up for their 1999 mainstream crossover and first disc for a major label, THE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF SOUTHTOWN. As they developed, P.O.D. moved further into melodic vocals, while keeping the reggae-tinged hard grooves and solid musicianship intact. GREATEST HITS: THE ATLANTIC YEARS expertly chronicles the band's catalog, with one new and one previously unreleased track.
