What gives? It says right there on the front cover. This is supposed to be a singles collection not a best of collection. The Chemical Brothers had 12 singles hit the UK Top 40 between 1992 and 2003 and two of them are not included on this CD. Why? If you're going to release an album of singles you might want to include the ones that were most successful. Still a good album anyway. Good compilation Well I am happy with it, many hits and good songs. I didn't have any album from Chemical Brothers so I decided to buy this. Anyway I was expecting something more. . . commercial. What I mean is, there are some songs mostly the hits that you can listen to without being a Chemical Brothers fan; but there are others that I felt it was too much for me. Those kind of songs you say "this is why I can't listen a complete album from this guys". Anyway, you want something from Chemical Brothers? Take this!. Prime Compilation Nearly all tracks succeed at rounding out this retrospective of the Brothers' body of work from the 90s. A great starting point for anyone looking to discover the Chemical Brothers. The one or two that do not reach the energy or wow of the remaining cuts do so marginally at most, and bear in mind this is my subjective take. Still this is a great compilation; after listening to this stellar package, the CB's "Push the Button" is that much more enjoyable. . Great delivery great product Did not have all the singles I was hoping for, but can't beat the price. Good CD for the price. More than Just a Dance Band This collection of incredible singles is an undeniable testament to that. Sure, these guys have pumped out many a dance floor filler. Buy this one for the singles, and the extra disc of rare-ish material. Then prepare to fall in love with Chemical Brothers, one of the most brilliant duos in popular music. Hopefully this "Best Of" will only be a jumping off point for the curious. Digging a little deeper into their albums you will find bits of heady psychedelia, rushes of shimmering electronica, tough slabs of hip hop, moody ballds, guest vocalists galore, and more than just a few curveballs thrown your way.
