Advantages: Great mix of artists and well known tunes

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 ...
...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. ...

Disadvantages: The re-release only offers theree other songs

...and adapt to different senarios. Good Girl Gone Bad is a prime example of how young artists should be able to appeal to all ages; the situations she sings of are evidently ones that many of her listeners can relate to. Combined with her catchy tunes and energetic personality, Rihanna has produced a winner! The only downside I could think of is that the re-release only offers 3 extra songs. This is'nt a huge disadvatage so I encourage all readers ... Read review

If you're starting out as a George Benson fan or just being a completist, this is definitely the compilation to go for! Perfect for summer days and really uplifting for the winter nights.

Advantages: great first album
Disadvantages: seems a little rushed in recording it

When I bought this album I thought she was going to be a bit like Kate Nash, but she is not Adele has her own very unique style, a lot more soul and a bit jazzy at times. Adele has a unique voice as it's unlike most other recording artists, the only person that I think she sounds like is Amy Winehouse and their music styles are slightly different. If you have only heard chasing pavements, don't judge the album on that, because she has a better variety ...
...There are five amazing songs on this album these are Chasing Pavements, Daydreams, Best For Last, Hometown Glory and Cold Shoulder. What's more Adele wrote all of the lyrics on the album she also wrote most of the music for the songs as well so she is one very talented lady who deserves a lot of respect as there are not many artists these days that sings and writes their own material . I think that you should give this album a try. ... Read review
