A compilation like no other
Review of Radio 1's Live Lounge Vol.2 - Various Artists by theenglishviet

Advantages: Some very good covers
Disadvantages: Some not so good covers

...a huge fan of the Radio 1 live lounge. For me, i am always intrigued to hear how bands and artists interpret not only their own single, but also a chosen cover. During 2007, a whole wealth of artists took up the challenge of the Radio 1 Live Lounge, and the "best" have been compiled into this double cd offering. If you listened to the first Radio 1 Live Lounge compilation, or even Jo Wiley's radio show (the home of Radio 1 Live Lounge), then you will ... Read review

The Return Of The Live Lounge- Volume 2
Review of Radio 1's Live Lounge Vol.2 - Various Artists by cheeky123

Advantages: Loads Of Great tracks! Youll find yourself enjoying songs you hated
Disadvantages: Some obscure artist that you may not know

...lounge (she's a Dj at Radio 1 for anyone that didn't know!) It's a great CD where else would you hear Maximo Park singing 500 miles! (Originally by the Proclaimers) or The Enemy covering Madonna's hit Hung Up. I can guarantee that you will find yourself enjoying songs that you have previously hated! I know I did! Even if you do not know some of the artist on the CD it doesn't mean they wont be good tracks as I found it hard to dislike any track. At ... Read review

Radio 1's Live Lounge sequel has arrived!
Review of Radio 1's Live Lounge Vol.2 - Various Artists by tasha_79

Advantages: More great tracks of popular songs sung by original & alternate artists
Disadvantages: Some slightly more obscure artists on this one

...it's easily recognisable as a radio 1 compilation. Tracks include live lounge classics such as Coldplay - Yellow, The Zutons - Valerie, Kasabian - Empire, and also unique covers like Natasha Bedingfield - Chasing Cars (Snow Patrol), Avril lavigne - The scientist (Coldplay) and The Enemy - Hung up (Madonna) My personal favourite is Keane - Dirrtylicious, a wicked rendition mix of Christina Aguilera / Destiny's Child. Fun and funky! The good ... Read review

Quick review of Radio 1's Live Lounge Vol.2 - Various Artists
Review of Radio 1's Live Lounge Vol.2 - Various Artists by infodakota

I prefered volume one to be honest, I like it when the artists cover other peoples songs and there just isnt enough of that on this album (plus how many artists covered the scientist by coldplay - it seems to feature twice on every album!) Pualo Nutinni's "rehab" is pretty good tho. I frequently listen to the live lounge on the radio and have heard some amazing covers why they aren't on the album is beyond me - just have to wait for volume 3 inevitable release! Good but not great

Must buy for music fans!
Review of Radio 1's Live Lounge Vol.2 - Various Artists by CptSergeRidic

Advantages: Great insight into other artists
Disadvantages: A few dodgy tracks

...personal choice. I'm really glad that Radio 1 have decided to release their live lounge sessions, it's taken a while for them to realise that this is a great money spinner. Can't wait for the next one to come out. I'd say this is a must buy if the price is right! ... Read review

Return of a brill album
Review of Radio 1's Live Lounge Vol.2 - Various Artists by connor.pamela

Advantages: Variations of well known songs.
Disadvantages: none

...much better than the first Radio one live lounge album. All tracks have been previously played on the radio one live lounge with Joe Willie, but I never get a chance to listen to them all first time they are on the radio, so its nice to hear them all. Some tracks really funny and are all by well-known artist's. The artists and bands either record alternative recordings of there own songs or ones by other artists, which is really interesting. I ...

Review of Radio 1's Live Lounge Vol.2 - Various Artists by tichplus

Advantages: Original, something for everyone
Disadvantages: None

...every track infact. so with Radio ones live lounge being one of my faviroute albums i was excited to hear that live lounge two was out aswell.I cant stop listening to it. every track on there is so original, if its not a song performed by a different artist its the artists song but done with an acoustic guitar making it simple but in some cases better than the original ? complicated ? It doesnt matter whether you hate pop beceause theyll be a rock/indie ... Read review
