the only AOB cd one needs This album is superior to the American compilation in every way. as one of the (seemingly few) American fans of Ace Of Base left, I was happy to pick this cd up on ebay a few weeks ago. A few of my favorite AOB hits (Living In Danger and Never Gonna Say I'm Sorry) were left off the US version. Also, this copy gets 2 more exclusive tracks that were left off the US version.
A handful of these songs are presented in the European remixes, as opposed to the American versions, and you know what? I love the Euro mixes of Cruel Summer, Lucky Love and Never Gonna Say I'm Sorry even better than the Americanized versions!
Get this cd over the US "Greatest Hits", it's a great collection of one of the best pop acts of the 90's.
Simply the Best
I also own their three previous albums and I think all the best songs are contained on this CD (although there were more good songs on "The Bridge" than these three). This is the best "best of" album I've ever listened. The three bonus songs are super and one of them, "Love In December" is available only on this album, for it was never released as a single as far as I know. You should buy "Singles" also if you have only the European version of their 3rd album "Flowers", because the song "Everytime It Rains" is included only on the American version and on "Singles".
Ace of Best
This is a Collection cd, in fact this is a special edition if you have the chance to buy it don't hesitate this come in a limited blue embossed jewel box including 16 songs 13 of their biggest hits and 3 new songs, Believe me this is the best option to have all the hits from Ace of base and in a collection CD this cd is very difficult to find so what are you waiting for?.
DEFINITELY THE BEST CD OF THE BEST POP GROUP OF THE 90's
The most destacable fact is that this CD is more complete than the U. This CD is simply the best collection of the best pop group of the 90's. S. release which don't include the hits: "Happy Nation" , "Love In December", "Living in Danger", "Never Gonna Say I'm Sorry" nor "Hallo Hallo" which are definitely great Ace of Base songs. The first single is one of my favorite all-time pop songs. It is really worthwhile to buy it. You will not regret. :o).
Why don't they make a box set of all of Ace of Base's songs?
But, in the fact that I know that many of Ace of Base's songs are not going to be released here in the USA. This CD makes me depressed, not in the fact that the CD bad, quite the contrary, it is an awesome CD. Why don't they release more eurodance over here!? My favorite song on this CD is "Love in December", it is the perfect dance song. Yet another Swedish group following in the footsteps of ABBA, and guess what? It works. This CD is full of their most popular songs-in Europe. I was pleasently surprised to find some remixes of some of the songs we have! Most notably, the "Cruel summer" mix is definitely worthy of a purchase. I had originally bought this CD because of the songs I haven't heard. "Hallo, hallo" and "Love in December". Once again, depression sets in, now, why don't they make a box set of ALL of Ace of Base's songs, surely there is a market for that (hey, big record executives, are you listening?) Well, if you don't believe me about the incredible coolness of Ace of Base, then buy this CD and fall in the warm glow of eurodance!.
