Advantages: Loads of great live cover versions

Disadvantages: None really

Radio 1 is a national radio station from the BBC aimed at a target audience of around 16-26 year old featuring DJ's such as Chris Moyles, Scott Mills, Vernon Kay & Sara Cox.

One of my highlights on the station is the Live Lounge. This is where an artist or band comes in live and sings two of their own song live & acoustic as well as a cover version. This album showcases some of the best recent cover versions performed as well as a few original live tracks too.

This is the 3rd Live Lounge album released, I have the other two which are both fab but I've gotta say this is the best one yet. There are many gems but some of my highlights include Dizzee Rascal doing The Ting Ting's "That's Not My Name" & also the Girls Aloud version of "With Every Heartbeat".

In reality there are too many great tracks to mention. I love the live element of it making this different from the normal recorded material released. Also the fact that you get artists covering songs you just would never expect them to sing.

If you love the live lounge or just listening to live music in general then this CD is a must have for your collection.

Summary: A must have if you love your life music
