CD1 sets the stage with a blend of classic hits across multiple genres. Pet Shop Boys kick off with 'I Wouldn't Normally Do This Kind Of Thing', followed by New Order with 'Ruined In A Day' and Duran Duran's 'Too Much Information'. Next come the powerful vocals of Annie Lennox with 'Little Bird' followed by classics from defining albums: Sting with 'If I Ever Lose My Faith In You' from 'Ten Summoner's Tales' and R.E.M.'s 'Nightswimming' from 'Automatic For The People'. Up next are a stellar run of beautiful songs from Saint Etienne, Sade, Go West and Sananda Maitreya. SNAP! And M People scored huge Pop-Dance hits, and Heaven 17 and Visage saw remixed versions of their classics become hits once again. The first disc draws to a close with a great collaboration between David Sylvian and Robert Fripp plus Suzanne Vega, Chris Rea, and finishing with Elton John's 'Simple Life'. CD2 takes you on a vibrant journey through Dance and Alternative Pop. Cappella's high-energy 'U Got 2 Know' and Urban Cookie Collective's 'Feels Like Heaven' set the tone, followed by infectious beats from Captain Hollywood Project and S.O.U.L. S.Y.S.T.E.M. featuring Michelle Visage. R&B smashes from Jade with 'Don't Walk Away' and SWV's 'I'm So Into You' feature alongside Shara Nelson's 'One Goodbye In Ten', and Jamiroquai's funky 'Blow Your Mind'. Stereo MC's, Sunscreem, and Pop Will Eat Itself add to the eclectic mix, and James' 'Sometimes', Del Amitri's 'When You Were Young,' and Paul Weller's 'Sunflower' are representative of '93's Pop-Indie crossover hits. The disc finishes with 'Kite' from Nick Heyward - his first new release for five years, and power ballads from Cher with her live interpretation of 'Many Rivers To Cross' and Bon Jovi's 'Bed Of Roses'. CD3 includes powerful vocals and dance floor favourites. Opening with a huge track taken from a massive hit soundtrack: Whitney Houston's 'I Have Nothing', from 'The Bodyguard'. Sister Sledge's classic 'We Are Family' was a hit again, remixed for the '90s dancefloor, followed by Taylor Dayne's cover of 'Can't Get Enough Of Your Love' and Lulu's 'Independence'. Sybil enjoyed her second big hit in '93 with 'When I'm Good And Ready', as did Haddaway with 'Life', while more Eurodance came from Dr. Alban with the uplifting 'Sing Hallelujah!'. Barry Manilow's 'Copacabana' was remixed to become a hit for the second time, and cover versions of Pop classics 'This Is It' and 'Everlasting Love' gave Dannii Minogue and Worlds Apart chart success. Soulful vocals from Michelle Gayle, Gabrielle, Lisa Stansfield and Dina Carroll are featured ahead of UB40's 'Higher Ground', whilst the final two tracks are from the years' biggest pop groups; East 17 continued their chart run with 'Slow It Down' and Take That saw 'Babe' become their third number one in 1993. An essential collection for any music lover, capturing the spirit and diversity of an unforgettable time in music.
