LOVE this song, I SO love this song - Pretty in Pink has such wonderful memories, and they'd have been far better if this had been the version they'd used - instead it was Danny Hutton Hitters who did that version - this one is far better, more involved musically speaking, it draws you right in - I absolutely love love love this song - and now wouldn't you know it, I'm hooked on his other work as well.

I really love Nik Kershaw's songs since the first time I listened to his song (the first is "The Riddle" for me). I have some albums of his including this one. What I can express here is that if you're a fan of Nik Kershaw and only looking for his "The Best" album, this is what you are looking for. Why ? Because this is his 'smart' compilation album which contains his best-only singles up to today. There is another "Greates Hits" type of Nik Kershaw album, it's called 'Essential Nik Kershaw'. But compare to 'Essential album', this album is more solid, because it only contains his best singles. Although in 'Essential' you will find more songs, but if you are really into the best only singles, then this is the album you are looking for. This album has all the best hits from Nik, like : Wouldn't it be Good, The Riddle, Wide Boy, etc.

Nik Kershaw - Greatest Hits is a compilation album released 1998 and contains all his greatest hits like The Riddle , Wouldn't it not be good and I won't let the sun go down on me to mention a few. We also get two bonus tracks, which are 98 remixes of Wouldn't it be good and I won't let the sun go down on me. The booklet contains of an assortment of photographs of Nick and are totally ok but nothing special. 4/5.

I was Stationed in England when I first heard of Nik Kershaw
back in the Eighties and that was the song Wouldnt it be Good and soon I became a fan of his music ever since !!! Here is a good sample of Niks music for beginners !!! Also included are my other favorite songs Dancing Girls & The Riddle !!!! A must for any Nik Kershaw
Fan !!!! The only problem is why he went unoticed America and the only way to get his music is through Imports

I just heard this on cable radio and I LOVE it~ "Wouldnt it be good?" brought back the "Pretty in Pink" memories but with more but sounds much better than the original. The Riddle is stellar. This guy is very diverse~~
