[edit] Different Versions

There were three different versions that were put out for this compilation. Between the versions, the title and covers were altered. The single disc edition was tagged "The Greatest Hits", while the dual disc was labeled "Greatest Hits".

The album art for the American release was the red question mark on black background, while the UK, European, and Oceanian releases featured the Benny Hill art. The Oceanian double disc edition also had a "Limited Edition 2CD Set" sticker, as in other markets the bonus disc was not limited. In Europe only a single disc edition was released. For this, the five b-sides were simply added to the compilation.

[edit] Note

  • All releases of this compilation contain the version of "We Care A Lot" found on Introduce Yourself, rather than the one from the band's earlier We Care a Lot album. The album sleeves, which describe the track as "Original Version", are thus erroneous.
