This is such a great album! All of the year's best artists on one CD! There's INXS, Bobby McFerrin (you know, the don't worry be happy guy?), Billy Ocean, NKOB, the list goes on and on. My personal favorite is INXS, but everything on here is good. A great pick!

If you love the 80's, then this is the CD for you! You'll love the tracks, especially INXS' big hit "Need You Tonight".

1.0 out of 5 stars Pass, August 21, 2003

One of the weaker sets in this series isn't a total loss thanks to a slew of guilty pleasures in Eric Carmen's "Make Me Lose Control," Terence Trent D'arby's Prince knockoff "Wishing Well," INXS' "Need You Tonight," and Boy Meets Girl cheesy pop gem "Waiting for a Star to Fall." Sadly, this is all offset by some really dreadful junk by Taylor Dane, Rick Astley, Billy Ocean, Expose, and the highly offensive "Don't Worry, Be Happy," by the normally talented Bobby McFerrin. Missing from this set: Tracy Chapman's "Fast Car," Edie Brickell's "What I Am," Midnight Oil's "Beds Are Burning," R.E.M's "Stand," and Pet Shop Boys' "What Have I Done to Deserve This."
