This set finally arrived from AmazWAN UK, but it was worth the wait. I've only heard the first disc so far, but it was good listening, and somehow struck a balance in that it was enjoyed by not only myself, but also by my wife and our teenage daughter.
Some of the songs are special acoustic performances, while others are just the regular studio version, but just about every cut is worth hearing and there is a consistent flow to the disc. It's also nice having some of these current hits on a CD, that are not available on other collections such as the recent Grammy nominees disc, or the NOW series.

Renny, you might not be familiar with the artists' names (such as Walk The Moon, or Rachel Platten), but if you have watched any sporting event in the last year, then you have definitely heard the songs "Shut Up And Dance With Me" and "This Is My Fight Song" (used in a car commercial also)

I really like George Ezra's "Budapest". Is the version on this a new recording, or just the studio version from his album?
I am not certain, but "Budapest" sounds like the normal studio version as I have heard it previously on the radio. Same with the Passenger song, not sure if it is a different take either.
