Platinum? Hits?Of course, fans like all the songs, but for the casual Bananrama fan, or someone unfamiliar. . this is an odd collection to encompass their career. "Young at Heart", "What a Shambles", "State I'm In", "Do Not Disturb", "Cut Above the Rest"??? Were these even released as singles? Unless these were released and were popular in Europe and Japan, it's an odd selection of songs to put as a best of collection. No "Venus"??!! No "Shy Boy"? No "Wild Life"? Why doesn't anyone include "Wild Life" on greatest hits compilations??!! Good collection, but 'Hits' compilation cd's are for people who like an artist, but don't want to buy all their cd's, and several of their biggest hits aren't even here. Maybe that's why it's called "Platinum" and not "Greatest Hits" or "Best of".
I would recommend this cd accomanied by a "Best of. . . " cd.
