Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Nearly a decade after Boney M called it quits, the man behind the band, Frank Farian, put together a musically similar duo who became far more successful (and infamous) than anyone had expected. Initially, everyone loved Milli Vanilli and their hook-laden singles that straddled both the Pop and R&B markets. Then, once it was discovered that the two gents in the videos and on the album covers did not sing on their recordings, everyone despised them. Now, nearly 20 years and one suicide later, the public has forgiven them for their sins and Milli Vanilli's melodic slices of Dance pop are in high demand again! 16 tracks including the hits 'Blame It On The Rain', 'Girl You Know It's True' and more. Sony/BMG.

3.0 out of 5 stars WARNING! THESE ARE NOT ORIGINAL VERSIONS!, April 23, 2008

By	Drew Alexander (Maine, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The songs on this "Greatest Hits" package are not original versions, and they will disappoint Milli Vanilli fans that remember and love the original versions aired on radio and MTV in the late 80s and very early 90s. You will be saddened by the inferior version of "Blame It On The Rain," which buries the vocal and botches the original single's great synth-hook that opened the song. The version of "Girl You Know It's True" presented on this CD is very disappointing and never kicks into the classic over-caffeinated chorus of the original. "All Or Nothing," "Baby Don't Forget My Number" and "I'm Gonna Miss You" are near-replicas of the original versions, and are still great-sounding. The other 11 songs on this CD are throw-aways, mere filler-material that you will skip over. If you loved the original versions (you can still hear them on youtube, at least), you don't want to buy this album. The original album "Girl You Know It's True" (as titled in the U.S.) that contained all their awesome foot-tapping hits is no longer in print, and their record label deliberately destroyed the masters of their biggest hits in a whirldwind of apparent contrition. Buy a used copy of "Girl You Know It's True" off Amazon, and pay the extra money. This CD will only let you down. You're going to miss "Blame It On The Rain."

3.0 out of 5 stars Hits & Remixes, April 9, 2009

By	Brad Matthews "I like salad" (Tulsa, OK United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I own several Milli Vanilli imports and their 2 US releases, Girl You Know It's True and The Remix Album. The cuts on this Greatest Hits are a bit different than what is on those two discs. It is the same singers you hear on the original releases.

All Or Nothing (3:21) - This is the same version that is on Girl You Know It's True until the very end. It has some strange talking after the song ends.

Baby Don't Forget My Number (4:10) - This is basically the single version that played on the radio. It has the album version intro with "Okay Eddie, this ones for you" then it jumps into the single version. It then ends with the "Is Eddie okay?" line that the album version ends with.

Blame It On The Rain (4:09) - this is a remix that I do not have on any other disc. I've heard this version before but this is the first time I believe it has appeared on disc. This version is the reason I bought this disc.

Girl You Know It's True (N.Y.C. Subway Remix) (4:01) - This is the remix version that appeared on the end of the Girl You Know It's True album only it fades out. Odd they didn't put the whole track on here.

Girl I'm Gonna Miss You (4:00) - I believe this is the radio edit which is a bit shorter than the version on Girl You Know It's True.
