This is (count it) the third compilation CD Jive has released for Aaron Carter. That is including the double set of Aaron's Party and Oh Aaron. This CD breaks no new ground and is just truly a step backwards for Aaron. The one possible redeeming factor could be the release of Bounce and AC's Alien Nation (long forgotten on the Jimmy Neutron Soundtrack).

But the rest of the songs we have heard before and they appear on several other CDs. One song that has always been conspicous by its absence is called "Sugar" - a technoish song that was never released because it too closely resembled Daniel Bettingfield's "We Gotta Get Through This." If only Aaron had released it first, it would have been his breakthrough song.

Also missing from this collection is "Life is a Party" from the Rugrats in Paris Soundtrack. Seriously people, don't waste your time with this rehashed excuse for a corporate shill of a CD. Instead, go download the two songs mentioned above.

the fact that Jive thinks it's necessary to release a 'best hits' of aaron carter is just ridiculous. how old is he? young 20s? not only has he not had all that many albums, but his songs really aren't worthy of a 'best hits' album. theyre just not. he's aaron carter. please don't support Jive's pathetic attempt to make money, this is a disgrace to music.

Newsflash: His second "Greatest Hits" album in a row (his last album: "Aaron Carter: Most Requested Hits (2003)"), while he doesn't even score hits anymore:

Zijn last "hit" was in 2001 ["Leave It Up To Me" #22 in UK]... After this, he released 9 other singles
[Not Too Young, Not Too Old - "I'm All About You" - "Another Earthquake" - "Summertime" - "To All the Girls" - "Do You Remember" - "She Wants me" (with Nick) - "One Better" - "Saturday Night"]
ALL, piece by piece, FLOPPED! 4 of them are mentioned on this album:

1. Aaron's Pary (Come Get It) - #51 UK
2. That's How I Beat Shaq - #96 US
3. Bounce [new]
4. My Internet Girl [new]
5. I Want Candy - #31 UK
6. Leave It Up To Me - #22 in Engeland
7. A.C.'s Alien Nation ["Jimmy Neutron, Boy Genius" soundtrack]
8. Oh Aaron - Huge Flop
9. I'm All About You - Huge Flop
10. To All the Girls - Flop
11. Another Earthquake - Huge Flop
12. One Better - Flop

As you see, not even one top 20 hit, nowhere... My opinion should be clear by now. If you ask me, his 2003 "Aaron Carter: Most Requested Hits" is far better than this one! I'm sorry for the fans, It's sadly but true. This can't even be called a "greatest hits" album anymore... There are 2 (of the 12) songs you can call a "hit".

I don't know why Jive is toying with Aaron, by releasing this kind of not worthwhile release.There is almost no difference with the Most Requested Hits cd. Aaron deserves better.

It only can be called a best of, when also his 4 hits of his first album were included. (trans continental records/Edel)

I'm a 100 % Aaron fan and i have more than 100 CDs of him (released from different counties ect), but I would NOT buy this cd.

She loved the CD, it was a gift, it had a crack on the case, but it was great otherwise!

This album is not "new" in any way - it only wants you to waste your money. If you bought "Most Requested Hits" from 2003, you have already bought this album too. I bought "most Requested Hits" for 3 songs ("Sugar", "She Wants Me" and "One Better"). Today I think it was not worth the money at all. I gave a few dollars just for three songs. I used to support Aaron and I have all 5 albums, but now, he's engaged and he's probably too busy to make another record. I mean, it's been 4 years since the last time! Aaron Carter is a part of the past. Now you people let him enjoy his bong alone=)

Okay, why would I spend ten or eleven dollars on cd that has the same songs as some of the other cds I own? If you want to buy a greatest hits cd by Aaron then buy his "Most Requested Hits" cd. It's got just about the same songs, but it has three newer songs that aren't that bad. This cd is a lame attepmt for Jive to make as much money as they can off of Aaron. He's a part of Trans Continental Records now, so Jive thinks that by releasing this cd, they can make some money. My advice is to stay away from this cd and go by something worthwhile.

Okay, i just have to say if you are a true aaron fan you will still buy this cd even though all of his songs are on cds. I know i did and its not a waste of money. Well to you it might be if you aren't a true aaron Fan but if you are this cd is really for you.

...as he tries to maintain his "sweet little boy" persona. I hope he doesn't hurt himself. It would be so crushing to all his fans if they learned the truth about this jerk. Not coincidentally, that's why I wrote this review. I never really liked him in the first place, but hearing what a complete tool this guy is, I hate him even more. I hope to God that I nor anyone else ever has the *ahem* "pleasure" of meeting this conceited little brat. What an a-wipe.
