(Universal)
By Chili Paddy
Choice Cut : ''Wonderful Tonight,'' ''How Deep Is Your Love,'' ''You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling,'' ''My Girl''
Sounds Like:Love is in the air! If you're a sucker for soppy ballads, cheesy schmaltz, and classic sentimental songs, then this double CD compilation should whet your appetite.You May Have Heard:Young and old should know classic tunes like Billy Joel's"Just The Way You Are,"Eric Clapton's"Wonderful Tonight,"The Temptations'"My Girl,"The Police's"Every Breath You Take,"Bee Gees'"How Deep Is Your Love,"and lots more. More recent hits here include Enrique Iglesias'"Hero,"Westlife's"Flying Without Wings,"Ronan Keating's"If Tomorrow Never Dies,"and"What Can I Do"by The Corrs.We Fancy:There are 18 huge sentimental hits here. There's something for everyone from Extreme's"More Than Words"to Bryan Adams'"Back To You"to Lionel Richie's"Truly."Although it's a pretty diverse collection, they all fit in rather nicely to bring out the romantic mood in anyone.We're Not Sure About:A few odd inclusions here -- The Cardigans'"Love Fool,"10CC's classic"I'm Not In Love,"and The Righteous Brothers evergreen"You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling."They are great songs but more suited as breakup or unrequited love songs rather than songs to listen to when you and your partner are deeply in love. You might want to program those out if you plan to have a romantic evening.Verdict:An impressive collection of love songs for any amorous setting. Let the love bug bite!
