Act Two

 

Artist: Collabro
Label: Portrait / Sony Music Masterworks
RRP: £13.99
Release Date: 10 July 2015


Fresh from the global success of their debut No.1 album, Stars, 2014's Britain's Got Talent champions Collabro return with their follow-up album Act Two.

Collabro's second album seems them once again visiting both musicals and cinema to bring us another 10 memorable songs.

The LP delivers exactly what fans will be expecting, more classic tracks given the Collabro twist. And while it's an enjoyable collection, I can't help feeling that we've been here before, but with better songs.

With Susan Boyle's rendition of 'I Dreamed a Dream' still fresh in everyone's mind, I couldn't help thinking that Collabro should have given it a miss - after all they covered two Les Misérables songs on their last album and wisely saw fit to leave it well alone.

It's a strange collection of light songs but your grandma, who let's face it is the intended market, will no doubt love it.

Track listing:

01 - 'All I Want' (Kodaline)
02 - 'I Won’t Give Up' (Jason Mraz)
03 - 'A Thousand Years' (Christina Perri / From The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Pt. 1)
04 - 'I’ll Be There For You' (From Friends)
05 - 'I Dreamed A Dream' (From Les Misérables)
06 - 'Memory' (From Cats)
07 - 'Who Wants To Live Forever' (From We Will Rock You)
08 - 'Music Of The Night' (From The Phantom Of The Opera)
09 - 'No Matter What' (From Whistle Down The Wind)
10 - 'Circle Of Life' (From The Lion King)
