Selected by Craig and Charlie, this 2 CD set features tracks from each of their nine studio albums, plus a brand new previously unreleased track "Not Cynical", and of course the worldwide smash "(I'm Gonna Be) 500 Miles".

"And now that I don't want for anything..."
I'm taking the time to write a review as the others here don't do this collection justice. The Proclaimers are aptly named, as everything they sing is sung with conviction, pride, and volume. Songs like "Sunshine on Leith" and "Cap in Hand" make this patriotic Yank wish she were a Scot. "I'm On My Way," "Life with You" and "Let's Get Married" are joyous declarations of love that never fail to put a smile on my 'coupon,' and the humor and adept wordplay in "What Makes You Cry" and "Spinning Around in the Air" have warranted countless listens and car commute singalongs. I'm still getting to know many of the songs, but I like them all, and I suspect many of them will eventually become new favorites as I glut myself on current favorites. I love these guys - their music makes me feel like I'm sitting on top of the world.

A great album
I had no idea the Proclaimers had such a great inventory of music. Nearly everyone of the copious number of tunes is top notch. Everything from something to stir the soul, to protest, to make you laugh out-loud. Excellent album

Have learned to love these guys!
Ordered this to listen to a Scottish band. Knew they performed 500 Miles, but did not know any of their other songs. Many of these songs are a great listen, including a song in memory of a father, several really appropriate wedding songs (Sunshine on Leith is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard!) and others. These guys are truly diverse and know how to change it up!

Amazing
Took a while to arrive, but that’s not a reflection of the product itself. It was in perfect condition and the songs are wonderful.

The Proclaimers
I discovered these brothers a few years ago, and I thought I was the only one on the planet who knew about them. Now their music is featured in the hit film, "Pitch Perfect" as well as being heard on several radio stations. I like them, but they may be an acquired taste. I hope they break out in this country the way they did in their own.

I love most of the songs on this
I love most of the songs on this. There is a wide variety so a little something for everyone for this low price. I did my research before I bought this CD to make sure it was a better option than just buying the single. It definitely worth the money.
