Living In A Box funks out. This compilation has all of the best cuts from their two albums, save ""From Beginning To End'' and ""Human Story''. If any of these boytoy groups -- backstreet boys, nsync, 98 degrees, and boys ii men, for that matter-- had half the soul of liab vocalist richard darbyshire, the world press would be praising them to hell. Instead, richard and his two songwriting buds are mere trivia questions. We live in an unjust world. do yourself a favor. buy this cd.

Once in a blue moon, an artist comes along who stands apart from the rest and makes you take notice - the likes of a Sinatra, Billy Joel, or Streisand. Richard Darbyshire, the always soulful and stylish lead vocalist of Living In a Box, is one such artist. Richard's voice will keep you listening, interested, and amazed! Who else can blend bluesy roughness with soft-as-silk phrasing from one syllable to the next like Richard? This 'greatest hits' album includes the band's only US hit ("Living In a Box") and offers the listener a nice mix of the smooth ballads and upbeat, funky tunes that charted in Europe and Asia ("Blow The House Down", "Scales Of Justice", "Room In Your Heart", "Different Air"). If you enjoy Richard's under-rated talents on this album, you NEED to hear his FANTASTIC solo album, which you can find support this artist by sharing the music with a friend or two!

I am totally agree with the comment of Carlos Galvalizi from Buenos Aires. I live here too and I was trying hard to find this CD, but it seems that it is not available. I think this is a song to be listened with your couple. I strongly suggest to play it in company.

I do not like much the music by this group but ROOM IN YOUR HEART is a special case. I find it is one of the sweetest melodies I heard in the last six months. I heard it on one FM here in Buenos Aires and I could not find it in the CD stores here, not even in Tower Records.

This is a song that touches my very heart and relates to my in person. I tried looking for it to use for my wedding but could find it. But know I find at in this site and I strongly recommend it for love of Love Songs.
