Discogs Most Wanted: 17 compact disc releases users are after in May 2025
Though perhaps not as 'on trend' as the vinyl format in recent years, there is a renewed interest in the format, with younger generations now rediscovering the ubiquitous disc that can be played almost anywhere.
Be it a DVD player, a Discman , or the car stereo, the format is undergoing a bit of a resurgence this year, with Gen Z sharing their latest CD finds on TikTok or Instagram . And with charity shops across the United Kingdom often offering a wide selection of CDs for very little, perhaps now is as good a time as any to hop aboard the bandwagon while it's gaining momentum?
We've consulted Discogs – any excuse for this writer to visit – to find out what CD releases are currently on the most Wantlists on the online marketplace.
But before you think you've scored something valuable, remember to check the pressing date using matrix codes or catalogue numbers, verify the pressing location, and, above all, assess the CD's condition. A CD resembling a drinks coaster won't elicit the response you're hoping for…
So, what 17 CD releases are Discogs users looking for in May 2025? Read on to find out!

Amanda Holden's teenage lookalike daughter poses topless in racy photoshoot
Amanda Holden's 19-year-old has shared her most recent modelling photo on Instagram. Amanda Holden's teenage daughter has shared a raunchy new photoshoot where she is seen posing topless in one of the snaps. Nineteen-year-old Lexi Hughes, who Amanda shares with husband Chris Hughes, looked stunning as she struck a number of fierce poses during the revealing shoot. Uploading three of the snaps to Instagram, model Lexi was seen sporting a wet hair look while wearing a full face of makeup. In one racy image, she is seen looking over her shoulder with her arms covering her naked chest. Another fully clothed wet-look style snap saw her crouched down in a pair of blue jeans, a white vest top and white pointed heels. The teen shared the snaps with her 39.5k followers as she simply captioned them: "Wet look," with an emoji of eyes looking. Her famous mother, Amanda Holden, was among those showing their support on the post as she proudly hit the like button on her daughter's shoot. Lexi, who is no stranger to a bikini snap on her Instagram page, limited the comments on the post. Earlier in the week she shared another photo shoot, captioning it: "Just a little shoot," with Ashley Roberts among those approving of the upload. On Wednesday, she also shared a snap of her soaking up the sun in a designer bikini as she posed on a sundeck chair poised on a boat in the middle of the ocean. It's not the first time Lexi has showcased her modelling talents online with the teen regularly posting to her Instagram grid. In a recent snap with her unknown boyfriend, she also packed on the PDA as she shared a snap of them kissing in their swimwear as he can be seen leaning over her. Her famous mum Amanda confessed she was nervous about her eldest daughter living her life in the limelight. While the BGT judge insisted she is delighted that Lexy has decided to follow in her footsteps into the industry, she has also shared some of concerns. Amanda, 53, shares her daughters Lexi and Hollie, 12, with husband Chris. The Heart Breakfast radio presenter often shares glimpses of her family life on social media, and her lookalike daughters have grown up in front of the public eye and last year Lexi landed her first role in the industry. Lexi opened the show at London Fashion Week last year in her very first catwalk which Amanda admitted she had been "super nervous" for. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!
