I have to echo the comments of the prior reviewer here. There is no disc 2 with this particular item. I ordered this, looking forward to the extended tracks on the bonus disc, but what arrived had only one disc (disc 1 above). I spoke with amazon customer service, so they sent another copy (while I returned the original), and that too had only one disc. It's great Bangles music on that disc, but don't get your hopes up about any bonus disc...

This remastered edition of the Bangles' "Definitive Collection" brings back great memories but does NOT contain all the songs that are advertised. The desciption for both the original and remastered "Definitive Collection(s)" lists a total of 26 songs (21 tracks plus five extended versions). The Product Details lists the Definitive Collection [Original Recording Remastered] [Import] originally relased on January 1, 1995 as having one disc but then on the track listings itemizes the contents of two discs (the first disc has 21 tracks and the second disc is supposed to contain the Extended Mixes and Remixes of Walk Like an Egyptian, In Your Room, Haxy Shade of Winter, Walking Down Your Street, and Manic Monday). The Definitive Collection [Import]that was also listed as originally being released on January 1, 1995 lists one disc with 26 tracks. The extended versions are tracks 16, and 23-26.
Other than the missing tracks, this is a great disc if you like the Bangles' music.

I only really remembered the main Bangles songs that I saw the videos for on Much Music or heard on the radio. I liked what I heard of them but I didn't hear a lot from them. I thought I'd buy the album to get the ones I remembered and basically sample some of the ones I've never heard of. In the end, the ones I remembered were the best on the CD. The others are a little forgettable in my opinion.

This CD is a welcome addition to my library and I am thoroughly enjoying it. In retrospect I did not realize that they had recorded so many fabulous songs!

I am a fan of the Bangles, and I love to own all of the Bangles' CD's and DVD's. I ordered Bangles Definitive Collection. I enjoy all of their songs, especially Susanna Hoffs' vocals. I am not just a Bangle fan, but a fan that loves the Bangles. Also, I am a fan of Susanna, but not just a fan, but a fan that loves Susanna.
