I like greatest hits albums like warm blankets and cool breezes, so when I hear one is coming out for an artist I like, I bounce around a little.
Aqua, who I loved while in middle school and throughout high school, just released their best-of:
Back To The 80's / My Mamma Said / Live Fast Die Young / Happy Boys And Girls / Barbie Girl / Around The World / Doctor Jones / Aquarius / Cuba Libre / Lollipop (Candyman) / Cartoon Heroes / Be A Man / My Oh My / Freaky Friday / We Belong To The Sea / Roses Are Red / Halloween / Turn Back Time / Goodbye To The Circus
Because Aqua is a group with 2 albums, it's not surprising that more than half of it are not actually singles. However all of the singles are in fact represented with the exception of "Bumble Bees," which sucks hardcore. Add 3 new tracks, and life is good. What they chose as best-of-worthy album tracks (Happy Boys, Aquarius, Cuba Libre, Be a Man, Freaky Friday, Halloween, Circus) are mostly top notch, although the last two are gimmicky and especially "Circus" is rife with over-concept. All this said, tho, you could've simply hit "random" for 16 of their previously released songs on iTunes and come up with the same tracklisting.
Most exciting today is the announcement that Madonna's next greatest hits collection is double disc.
( unnecessary Madonna rambling )
