Various Artists - Songs That Won The War (Celebrating The 60th Anniversary Of VE Day) (CD 2005)

Working in a nursing home we are always on the look out for good value cds and videos to use for reminiscence for our residents. This sort of compilation is ideal as our residents tend to remember the songs from an important era of their life. It gives a prompt for conversation and reminiscence which is vital to ensure mental stimulation. A great item.

MY DAUGHTER IS A PRIMARY SCHOOL TEACHER. AFTER THE S.A.T.S. HAVE FINISHED, THE TOPIC FOR YEAR 6 WILL BE WW11.
AFTER LOOKING THROUGH MANY CD'S THIS ONE SEEMED THE MOST APPROPRIATE.
THERE ARE ACTUAL BROADCASTS FROM WW11 THAT THE CHILDREN WILL BE ABLE TO LISTEN, AND HOPEFULLY RELATE TO DURING THEIR TIME ON THIS TOPIOC.
HAVE NOT HEARD ONE SO DETAILED BEFORE, VERY GOOD EDUCATIONAL ITEM.

This is the second cd (both the same). The first was for my mother and somebody heard it and asked me to get them a copy. Very good services.

This CD 'Songs that Won the war' is a very authentic look back in time and is the most origial portrail of music I have found. My father in law has Alzemers and we were looking for something which would trigure his momories of long ago and prevent him getting agitated. Whithin two minutes he was singings along with these authentic songs and really enjoyed himself. I think this will be a daily thing but since there is 100 songs to choose from the rest of us won't be driven nuts in the prosess.
I would recomend this CD for anyone who cares for older pople as well as it's appropreateness as a teching tool as I am sure i will be borrowing these songs and anoncements within my teaching practice.

Many thanks for such a great and versatile product!!!

If your into listening to the old time music then this 4 disc set of war time tunes is the one to have at home. Great value for money, Seller gave A+ service, paged really well, fast delivery. Cheers God bless.

Very authentic. If you like history then Churchill's speeches or clips of his speeches are very interesting.

We needed a cd for some background music for a Golden Wedding Celebration. This CD fitted the bill perfectly.

It has got all the good ole war song classics sang by the correct people. A must for any VE party or pub sing-a-long

Brought for a present for someone, a very good selection of songs which were the equivalant of the modern day charts the lyrics depict the life style and thoughts of the people who were having to endure the horrors of war and the stiff upper lip and sense of humour that enabled us to be victorious over Nazi Germany
