"This set has the origional Tigerlilly cd and a second cd with 5 songs:1. Jealousy (REMIX EDIT)2. Sympathy for The Devil (live)[the same as the B-side on the Jealousy single]3. Baby I Love You/Son Of A Preacher Man (live)[NOT the same as the 'Baby I Love You' on the Wonder single]4. Take a Look (live)5. The Work Song (live)As a devouted Natalie fan, I had to have it even though it only has two songs I don't already own. The booklet containing the lyrics has the lyrics written in several languages, although the actual cd is in English. The actual cd is completely green, instead of green and orange like the original.For devoted Natalie fans, it is a must have, still, for those just becoming interested in her, save yourselves the money and buy the original Tigerlilly."
"If you're a casual Natalie fan or are just getting into her music, stick with the original Tigerlily. If you are a huge fan of the woman with one of the most beautiful voices in popular music today, get this! In my opinion, Tigerlily is Natalie's weakest album (I love Ophelia and Motherland equally) but it's still an amazing piece of work and the bonus songs are a great addition to this great album! The original version of Tigerlily rates a 4 out of 5 but this special bonus edition rates a perfect 5."
Her Studio Voice is Excellent...Her Live Voice is Awesome!

"This CD is a double CD set, the first including the full length album of Tigerlily, the second CD releases her spellbinding voice live in concert performing songs like Sympathy for the Devil, Baby I Love You/Son of a Preacher Man, Take a Look, and The Work Song. No Natalie fan can be without it. Even if you aren't a full Natalie fan, THIS IS A NECESSITY! Her smooth voice sets the mood, sometimes rock, sometimes blues, but every song is excellent. If you buy any CD this summer, MAKE IT THIS ONE!"
A great CD, with a great bonus!

"If you're wondering whether to buy this CD, go for it! Whether you already have Tigerlily or not, this CD is worth it! It is a double set, with the beautiful, amazing album Tigerlily on the first disc and a bonus disc that features the radio edit of Jealousy, plus live covers of Sympathy for the Devil, Baby I Love You, Son of a Preacher Man, Take a Look, and The Work Song. This disc is great for showing off Miss Merchant's live charisma, and her voice is perfect for the blues-y, rocky songs she sings!"
Interesting take on ?Sympathy for the Devil?

"This 2-CD set is a real bargain, costing about as much as a domestic single CD; imports are usually exorbitantly priced.Anyway, regarding the topic of this comment, I really liked Nat's rendition of the famous Stones song, though, I had to listen twice to really appreciate it. It's a tad annoying that she sort of slurs the lyrics, seems to skip one verse altogether and, by the sound of it, ad lib some lines, but Natalie sounds so sultry and smooth, you can't help but overlook it. I tell ya, damnation never sounded so sexy."
