Following on from last year’s ‘Just Great Songs’ comes this second volume, once again focussing on the familiar and well-loved songs that have become part of your life alongside some recent tracks that are already destined to become future classics. You hear them on the radio or on TV all the time, you know the words and find yourself singing along in the car or while doing your daily chores. This time we’ve also focussed on some of the most uplifting and inspirational songs ever, they often defy being consigned to a particular genre they are simply ‘Just Great Songs’.

Beginning with some true contemporary classics - P!nk with ’Try’ and Bastille + Marshmello’s huge hit ‘Happier’ alongside Rag’n’Bone Man, Tom Walker, George Ezra and Leona Lewis’ version of ’Stop Crying Your Heart Out’. Uplifting tracks from Take That, Celine Dion and Whitney Houston share CD1 with heartfelt songs from Lady Gaga, Ariana Grande, Little Mix and Christina Aguilera and the disc closes with introspective moods from Amy Winehouse, Duffy and John Legend.

CD2 is all about 100% classics and starts with a run of the most inspirational songs of all time including ‘Lovely Day’, ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’, ‘What A Wonderful World’, ‘God Only Knows’ and ‘Perfect Day’. Timeless songs from Diana Ross, Michael Jackson, Gladys Knight, Labi Siffre and Sade are all here alongside the ultimate in feel-good tracks from Bobby McFerrin with ‘Don’t Worry Be Happy’ and Heather Small’s ‘Proud’ amongst others.

The final disc is the ideal playlist of huge radio hits from the past few decades… Westlife’s anthemic ‘You Raise Me Up’ and Girls Aloud’s cover of ‘I’ll Stand By You’ open the disc, followed by the beautiful ‘Little Things’ from One Direction, Justin Bieber’s ’Sorry’, and Calvin Harris & Sam Smith’s collaboration ‘Promises’, before moving on to some of the most empowering and defiant anthems of recent years from Sara Bareilles, Rachel Platten, Kelly Clarkson and Sia - all alongside massive hits from Stereophonics, Paloma Faith and Lana Del Rey. All before closing with some of the most atmospheric ballads ever including Tears For Fears’ ‘Woman In Chains’, Scorpions’ ‘Wind Of Change’ and James Bay’s modern classic ‘Let It Go’.
