Scotland's Tartan Top Twenty (The Songs) - Various Artists

Advantages: Originality and fun, great lyrics
Disadvantages: Quality and bit out of date

...**What Is It?** Tartan Army (Scottish World Cup Anthems) was put toghether by Scotland FC. It has 20 songs that have influenced Scottish football over the last 40 years. Written by various artists **Quality Of Music?** Not bad actully. You can tell some of it was recoreded a while back as it is a bit crackily, but the music itself is great. It is VERY patriotic and has alot of traditional scottish instruments especially the accordion which appears in almost every song! Every song also has men singing about some subject relating to Scotland or football. They are very catchy so watch out! Alot of them are ballads which are very witty and once in a while quite rude! Again it is a bit crackily but it is very loudly recorded so i'm pretty sure that has something to do with it. **Tracklist** 1. Easy Easy - Scotland World Cup Squad... Read review

Advantages: Lots of great songs from the eighties
Disadvantages: A few not so great

...was never far away from him. New Edition never really made it on this side of the Atlantic and this was their only hit of note. Track 13 - I Got You Babe - UB40 & Chrissie Hynde This corroboration between UB40 and Chrissie Hynde of The Pretenders (Brass in Pocket) fame was a huge hit and to be honest their various styles complemented each other excellently on this track. Track 14 - Love Of The Common People - Paul Young When originally released this song flopped but after universal success with Wherever I Lay My Hat (That's My Home) this was re-released and was another success, peaking at Number 2 in the UK charts. Pretty decent stuff. Track 15 - All Cried Out - Alison Moyet The female half of Yazoo enjoyed a fair amount of success as a solo artist, and this was probably her best offering. Track 16 - Total Eclipse... Read review

Advantages: Great mix of artists and well known tunes
Disadvantages: Maybe needed more female artists, popular r'n'b stars

...2 Disc Set, with 40 tracks so you can't really go wrong here. It's kind of a mix of the old and the new love songs, but still some timeless tracks from artists like Mary Mary, Aliyah, 2Pac, Anita baker, Toni Braxton and others. The kinds of songs everyone knows. Some lovers tunes and some more faster paced. With Lemar, Wayne Wonder, Akon, Ashanti, Mya, India Arie, as well known young stars of now. But it would have been nice to have seen some younger and newer R'n'B stars that are playing in the clubs at the moment and also maybe a bigger selection of female vocalists like Khelis, Brandy, Ne-Yo, Omarion and others. Still the tracks are a good mix with tunes like My Boo, Usher and Alicia Keys, Satisfaction, Eve, Cry me a River, Justin Timberlake, Sweet Love, Anita Baker, On and On Eryka Badu and lots more....
