Advantages: Beautiful location, close to good pubs and restaurants Disadvantages: Quite expensive
My partner and myself enjoy staying in hotels just outside our local area, and the Last Drop Village Hotel and Spa was a destination we had been intending to try for a while.
The village itself is very quaint and surrounds the hotel which is well known around the area as an exclusive and rather expensive hotel experience. The nearest village to the hotel is Bromley Cross which is a ten minute walk away and is well supplied with all the pubs and restaurants one could wish for if a night out is required rather than a relaxing night in, sampling the many facilities of probably the finest hotel in this area.
The hotel itself is rather sprawling and quirky, and is more a complex than a bonafide village in it's own right. The hotel is very traditional and not in the least like some low market travel lodge.
The facilities include ...
Advantages: A lot of the good old songs he sang. Disadvantages: his life at the moment.
I am writing this review and opinion as a fair one, I have my personal opinions on him but this is not what this is about.
No matter what has gone on in the past, Michael Jackson is a legend. He even has a monkey named after me lol.
My next door neighbour from my last place idolises him and will not hear a bad thing said against him so for Christmas I decided to get her the Michael Jackson Number Ones.
Now Ciao, tut, tut, if your trying to catch me out to see if I have got this cd, then I must point out to you that you have the wrong picture on the review heading. Ciao shows it as Michael jumping sideways. This is actually one of the pictures inside the cd and is not the main cover.
The CD Cover
--------------------
Very basic, white front and back cover with a picture of Michael Jackson with his had on his head ...
Advantages: Every single song, The cover with trademark dance move, Everything about it Disadvantages: Not enough of his amazing songs
I will start off by saying my respects to one of the greatest artists to ever grace this earth. It was a tradgey what happend to MJ and may he rest in peace.
The album speaks for itself really with his greatest ever hits including Thriller, Bad, Human Nature, Man in the Mirror, Beat It, Smooth Criminal, Earth Song, Billie Jean, basically a whole montage of Jackson's greatest hits for as little as £5 for the CD which in my eyes is an absolute bargain. The quality of the songs are brilliant as was the man himself and it is a must buy.
As a 17 year old I can truely say that Michael Jackson is the King of Pop the best to date in the pop world just like Elvis was the King of Rock, there will not be another one like Michael for a very long time. And this CD proves it with some of his most magical songs, the only downside really is that ...

"Said I Loved You...But I Lied" was nominated for Best Pop Vocal Performance, Male in the 37th Annual Grammy Awards. The one thing Michael Bolton can use is getting critics off his back. If you want to be "in" in some circles, you must rip into Michael Bolton. Critics like to make stars and then knock 'em down. However, Michael Bolton has two powerful weapons on his side: talent and millions of fans. And it is his fans who truly matter in the long run. On THE ONE THING, Michael showcases his powerful voice and songwriting expertise to full effect. "I Said I Loved You...But I Lied" is one of the best songs of his career. Understated and emotional, his poignant vocal expresses the one thing that the word "love" isn't strong enough to state: his feelings. Fortunately Bolton has that compelling voice of his, and when he cracks to a slight falsetto, you can hear hearts melting across the planet. A powerhouse of a vocalist, the lion-maned superstar scorches through power ballads ("Completely"), Police-style rockers ("I'm Not Made Of Steel"), and soul-stirrers ("Ain't Got Nothing If You Ain't Got Love"). And since every Michael Bolton album has a remake of a popular oldie, THE ONE THING also includes an impassioned reading of Bill Withers' "Lean On Me." Thus, THE ONE THING actually includes a few things: soulful singing, first-rate pop songs, and the strong personality of an artist whose fans love every note he sings.
