Diana Princess of Wales Tribute

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Given the multimedia frenzy that accompanied Princess Diana's untimely death, it's somehow appropriate that the tragedy should inspire this album--a 2 CD set featuring 36 old and new tracks by an array of international stars--with a portion of the proceeds going to a Memorial Fund established in the late Princess' name. But, with Diana's death as the only unifying thread (and a tenuous one at that), it's not a particularly consistent or cohesive listen. But it's hard to argue with such an impressive array of stars including Celine Dion, Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, the Spice Girls, Barbra Streisand, Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen, Puff Daddy, Aretha Franklin, R.E.M., Sinead O'Connor, Seal, George Michael, Des'ree, Bryan Ferry, and Michael Bolton (joining opera star Placido Domingo to perform "Ave Maria"). --Scott Schinder

5 out of 5 stars i love this album inside out.......2007-05-02

I borrowed this album like 10 years ago from a friend of mine. and it's just great! my all time favorite "Shakespeare's Sonnet No. 18" by Bryan Ferry; Amazing Aretha Franklin's "I'll Fly Away"; Bruce Springsteen's "Streets of Philidelphia", Puff's "I'll Be Missing You", "Who want's to live forever" by queen, Touching; Mariah's Wonderful live performance on "Hero", "Because You Loved Me" by Celine Dion, also my farovite; etc.

And ten years later, i finally own this album. It's still unbelievablly good! I think that's what we called classical, everlasting. just like Diana.

5 out of 5 stars Diana's Tribute CD.......2006-04-28

I still love listening to the music on this 2 CD set.
After reading the negative review 2 comments down from me, I had to remark.
The music on this CD is what should have been reviewed, not your opinion of Diana.
If you were so "blindly" drunk and forgot you had heard the night before, how exactly did you remember then the next day?
As for going on about Diana's character, I don't ever recall hearing about her getting so blasted that she started having blackouts.
She did alot more for people within a few years than it sounds like you have done your entire pathetic life. You waste your time on booze and the internet. She spent hers helping mine victims.
Get a clue....

4 out of 5 stars good tribute Album.......2006-01-02

alot of great talent paid tribute to lady Diana. my favorite track is "Every Nation" which was Composed&produced by the World Music GLobal King R. Kelly . this Disc has alot of Good material&great talent through out.can't believe it's been almost 10 years since Lady Diana passed.still very uplifting.

4 out of 5 stars I am soooooooooo hungry!.......2002-02-08

As I was listening to this c.d., I got such an appetite! ;) i WAS LIKE, i'M GONNNA GO GET A BOWL OF CEREAL, AND IT WAS LIKE 4 IN THE AFTERNOON! LOL Sorry that I've been typing in caps. lol
The best thing about this c.d. is that it's all Priness Dianay and it helps us all feel that we somehow are/were a part of her life when in reality she had no idea who we were and probably didn't care about. I like to feel important. Gotta go eat! lol ;)

3 out of 5 stars Beatiful album cover, good idea, too big a variety of music.......2002-01-21

I got this album when it first came out, like so many of us did, and was a little disappointed. Many musicians contributed to this album, some of them first released their songs here, but the variety is too great. While I like the idea of a tribute to the Princess this double album is a very strange mix of music, I've always wondered how someone came up with the selection. I do like many of the selections, but was this list compiled from artists in Diana's colllection of recordings or did various family members come up with people they liked? I do like the idea that someone thought to include "I am in love with the world" by Chicken Shed, they are a childrens group that the Princess was a Patron of.

      3 out of 5 stars interesting overview of Diana's life both as a child & adult.......1998-07-17

      I enjoyed this 2 disc set and found it enlightening about Diana Princess of Wales, but I was disappointed that it was all narrated. When I got it, I thought there might be some of the lyrics from her funeral but there was not. Overall, it was very good if you are looking for a historical prospective and want to learn about Diana, don't order it if you are looking for any music or coverage of her funeral.
