This is not a good comp. I have a bunch of them and this one is weak. Pillows & Prayers. To the Shores of Lake Placid. You're Secrets Safe with Us. From Brussels with Love. All are better than this

Quirky as it is and nice collection I’m still not sure why this one is so collectible

Although most memorable for "Home" by Modern English, all of the other artists here have contributions just as good I think.
