The new collection, available at Starbucks exclusively from May 1st to May 29th to celebrate Mother's Day, features a slew of A-list acts, including David Bowie, Sting, Faith Hill and Lauryn Hill. In addition, there are several previously unreleased tracks, highlighted by Coldplay's acoustic "Yellow," Bono and the Edge's acoustic "Origin of the Species," Eddie Vedder's "Skipping" and husband-and-wife team Paul Simon and Edie Brickell teaming on "Pretty Day."

In all, 15 of the 19 songs are previously unheard. In addition to the aforementioned tracks, Alanis Morissette, Patti Smith, Beck, the Dave Matthews Band and more contribute to the collection.

    Good cause as usual, just wish Starbucks wasn't involved again, I'm more of an independent coffee shop person, but a good cause as always.

    I understand supporting independent and local shops. But starbucks coffee is so fucking good. And this won't be the first CD I've purchased from them. The music is sometimes pretty good. Unfortunately there's not a starbucks within 60 or 70 miles of me these days.

    It's ok coffee but better than other corporate choices such as Dunkin Donuts or Wawa/7-11. but they are corporate bastards at the end of the day no matter the shade of lip stick they apply, though this is a good cause and it's something new from Eddie, 2 out of 3 ain't bad :D

    I'm more concerned that Vedder looks like the cowardly lion in this photo.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    Funny stuff, the uke songs album is the only vedder related album I haven't purchased. I listened to it at a friends and just couldn't see myself ever listening to it. Didn't make me want to puke though, just not my cup of tea.

    I have a feeling you never seen Ed do his Uke songs live. I didnt care for the Uke album before the live shows. Now I have a greater appreciation for the album. Im not alone in this either.
