Tang17, could you confirm (if you're still around)? I would assume disc one has 17 tracks, and disc two has the remaining 11 extended tracks.

well, it's not perfect, but it's honestly more than I thought we'd EVER get, so I'm definately going to be buying this...

i could only imagine lots of sales would make a remaster series of the old albums that much more feasible.

s'nothing more than another the hits/the b-sides, really...

Disc one:
""Gett Off" - i've heard this is an alternate edit

but at least we get a few remixes/extended versions (although I know 95% of us have these in some format already)

my hope is that the audio will be much improved, which will make it worthwhile

I hope it will be the video version...I love that one!

with the extra little bits of rap in it

i hope it's an edit of the UK extended version.

I may be in the minority here, but I have NEVER been a fan of "Money Don't Matter Tonight"

Even back in the day when I was young and misguided and thought D&P was a masterpiece, I still was bored to tears by that song.

And here it is popping up on another greatest hits comp....Oh well...


ditto for Nothing Compares 2 U

WHY?




that being said, I will be 1st in line to get this package when it actually hits the shelves...

Ugh. I'm going to have to buy this for the extended versions I don't have in CD quality.

What a bizarre compilation.

How much more money would WB make if they released every single sequentially on CD? They could be pressed on imitation vinyl discs with faithful packaging, including all the B-Sides and remixes which weren't previously available together.

wonder if Gett Off is the dopey B-side of New Power Generation...

yeah, but still...i've got all this stuff already, on bootleggage or otherwise. this could have a better mix of songs/singles on it, methinx...i'ma pass on it.

i think it's kooky that "nothing compares 2 U", which was a bonus track from a best-of, is being included on another best-of.

And technically it was a double A-side single with "Peach" and went to #62 on the U.S. R&B chart so it did get some kind of play on radio back in the day.

i don't think MY copy of 'peach' has NC2U on it...of course, it was one of those two-disc import thingies, and i only got the one with 'partyman', 'money don't matter' and 'mountains' as b-sides.

i passed on the other greatest hits but not on this one
