HBN Live It Up

We found ourselves caught between two iconic compilations: Never Too Much: Greatest Hits and HBN: Live It Up. While both are treasure troves of musical nostalgia, they carve distinct paths through the decades. Never Too Much glows with polished, studio-ready anthems-its tracks are like well-groomed gardens, serene and meticulously arranged. In contrast, HBN: Live It Up thrives on raw energy, with live recordings that feel more like untamed landscapes, alive with spontaneity and crowd buzz. The surprise lies in how these "soils" for testing (as the title suggests) cater to different moods: one for reflective listening, the other for revving up the soul. Ultimately, the choice depends on whether you crave the comfort of familiar hits or the thrill of live, unfiltered brilliance. Both, however, deserve a place in your collection.
