World Music That Speaks To The Spirit - Various Artists

Scarface (Music inspired by the movie) - Various Artists

Advantages: A few scarface film samples
Disadvantages: Nearly the whole thing

much going on here either, its just so repetitive that you have to try really hard to listen to the whole thing G.O.D Pt 3 - Mobb Deep. A 96 release using the end 'the world is yours' end credits as a sample and again thats the best bit about the song. Average all round Overall not great, im suprised the film company let def jam use the trademark in association with these poor songs. Leave this one on the shelf ...

Good Intro to the Traditional Sounds of South-Eastern Europe

Advantages: great selection, good variety
Disadvantages: somehow mistitled, mostly traditional stuff

Now That's What I Call Music 69

Advantages: Some good tunes, suitable for anyone any age
Disadvantages: Also some poor quality tunes, getting worse each time a new ones out

42 poptastic tracks on them? Disk one track listing is as follows *1. Duffy - Mercy This is a song of Duffy's debut album that made it straight to number one from the first internet download releases. Her music is said to be similar to the music from Amy Winehouse. Duffy is originally from Wales and became famous from a talent show. *2. Rihanna - Don't Stop The Music A catchy very lively song by Rihanna similar to some of her other releases favourite of mine on this album. This song is from Rihanna's album 'Good Girl Gone Bad'. *3. Basshunter - Now You're Gone I had heard this song before I heard it by Basshunter not sure where but it was familiar, a really fast easy to get into song. That has been successful in various countries as well as the UK, I feel it is one of the best songs on this album. *4. Girls Aloud ...
