Advantages: Some favourites and a lot of unknown beauties Disadvantages: none off the top of my head
's more out of the 39 tracks on this I only owned 2 of them before hand so it's not like you're paying £13.99 for a load of tracks you've already got. At least I didn't have - I can't speak for everyone of course..
Listen to it when you want to lay back and relax, when you want some background music to work to or even if you want a sing-a-long. It's brilliant.
As I've put in the drop down box affair below the quality and consistency is excellent and I've listened to other acoustic albums and not enjoyed them even half as much. The mix of "pop" artists with "indie" as well as classic performers such as Eric Clapton is wonderful.
Kick back with a cuppa and realx. Two thumbs up.
And now the tracks.

Most Celtic songs have pipes, fiddles, powerful drumming, with maybe a bit of piano, guitar or even keyboards (like Celtus), as well as the Irish bagpipes and many strings offering sweet chords in the background. Quite often, there is also singing, either in English or, more traditionally, Celtic/Gailic. For this reason, I like to think Celtic music as a combination ...
Advantages: appeal to all ages Disadvantages: few songs are repetitive
The twilight soundtrack is a mix of artists from paramore to muse, Its a mixture of styles, ranging from upbeat, rocky sounds to slow melodic sounds.
Some of the songs are very catchy like linkin parks 'Leave out all the rest' and 'decode' by Paramore. Also included in the album is 'Bella's lullaby' by Carter Burwell for all you twi-hard fans!
This album (for me) is something i would definitely recommend to buy as it has music for everyones tastes, and is an album for all ages.
The one thing that i will point out about this album is sometimes it does have a knack of sounding slightly repetitive, and out of fifteen songs i would recommend twelve out of fifteen that are positively cheerful, singalong songs.
I have to say though that having the album out so early does mean that twilight fans have the chance to singalong and get ...
