Why do people get conned into buying these dreadful collections?
Once again (for the 71st time to be precise) we are subjected to an offering that includes 2 or 3 good songs whilst the rest are a mixture of banal tripe and"one hit wonders", the likes of which will leave you wondering whatever happened to decent "pop" hits.
