Customer Reviews Erasure at their best I had to repurchase it. I have owned this cd for about 15 years, when it was damaged and scratched. I can't live without it! The highlights being "Leave Me to Bleed" and "Hideaway" mixes. The cd is in 3 parts: remixes, orchestral versions, and live selections. All are fantastic and fun!. 5+5 = 10 STARS But This 2 Ring Circus CD, is just as good if not better. 100% one of my ALL TIME FAVORITES (other than the 2 box sets that are very $$$ with multiple CD, maxi's enclosed and to much to carry around) but it is a must have (in a collectors box) with every remix and unreleased items avialable. The Mixes are great, with the Erasure Feel and a tad of that Yaz feeling, some songs are acoustic, some are remixed to perfection, and the live concert tracks send chills up your spine, as if U are really there. For the small $ this is a CD that you just can't stop listening to, I have 2 copies (one for the home, and one for the Car) at least if one is damaged, I have a back up edition. EXCELLENT CHOICE, even the box set(s) do not have "Drama, Love 2 hate U, and so many more, but I would start with this Cd. The Live version of Oh'Lamour is so fabulous, the crowd cheering in the background etc. . really allows you to know how much this group is appreciated the 2 Ring Circus CD is great. . . . Jason Prof DJ. Best Remix Album EVER. The remixes are better than the original album versions (especially Hideaway), the orchestral versions turn decent studio songs into emotionally powerful *killers*, and the live tracks do a wonderful job of showing that yes, even synth-pop bands like Erasure can sound better live than in the studio. This is one of my all-time favorite Erasure albums, and is really the one that made me fall utterly in love with the band. The live cuts of "Oh L'Amour" and "Gimme Gimme Gimme" are especially fantastic. Enough of my gushing! Buy this album!. .
