Good mix of popular songs

THE GIANTS HIT is a music CD sampler series matching the same music show on TV. This title "Pop & rock anthems" sounds somewhat laudatory for songs that are known to be played or heard often much.

Of the 37 songs the selection is in my opinion at a ratio more older songs (such as Plastic Ono Band, Elton John, Santana, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Giorgio Moroder, The Fifth Dimension, Elvis, Alan Parsons Project, OMD, Village People , Rofo, Jennifer Rush, John Miles, Moody Blues,) compared to the more recent (eg London Philharmonic Orchstra, Vangelis, Sarah Brightman, Scorpions, Paul Potts, Enigma, Whitney Houston).

Some items are from advertising (Adiemus, What a Wonderful World, Forever Young, Nessun Dorma) by other historical events (Give Peace a Chance, Wind Of Change) or as film music (Up where belong, Conquest Of Paradise, My Heart Will Go On, (I've Had) The Time Of My Life) known.

The mix of fast and slower songs like that. Who but rare or similar expected here is little look no further. Those who collect all editions of Hit Giganten, unfortunately, unfortunately, have one or the other title twice in his collection. This can, however, in the various themes of such a sampler series never be completely ruled out.

The utilization of the available playing time on these CDs comes in about 2:30 playing time in order.

For many years, the sound of Hit-Giganten's - CDs very well. This also applies to this issue.

The double-CD comes with a booklet. Production year and playing time are shown. The CDs are equipped with CD-Text.

My conclusion: a successful CD sampler with no real surprises, which can convince both phonetically by his good music section.
