Okay, from the first you can tell that I'm displeased with this cd... so where do I begin?
This cd is a mish-mosh compilation of lengthy, tedious and yawn inducing songs. Don't get me wrong, I love music, I even love most of the bands on the double cd's... so where did it all go horribly wrong? Probably the publicity on television.
A great fan of Snow Patrol, The Kooks, Razorlight, Keane and Lily Allen... (those that appeared in the tv ad), I expected the music on the 2 cd's to flow... instead everything seemed to collide and crash with great songs being followed by uninspirational noise (was that music?)... oops...
There is no flow... and very little enjoyment. This is a case of Radio 1 trying to make a quick buck.
I confess that after an hour, I got fed up of fast-forwarding to the next song, and buried this cd under my cd collection... never to be taken out again. What a waste!
If, like me, you're considering buying this cd because your favourite band is on it... I suggest you purchase their cd and RUN past this one.

I'm sorry but that didn't do anything for me. I wouldn't know if any of my favourite artists were on this CD, as you didn't provide any inkling towards a track listing. I actually got more from reading the comments to this review, particularly tazzywazzy's about what is on the CD. Can I suggest that you slow down on the number of reviews that you are posting and concentrate on quality rather than quantity.
