Garbage fans, "Special #2" cries out for your love! This CD single isn't as good as "Special #1", but it has its place. The B-side, "13 x Forever", has turned into one of my favorite Garbage songs - it's an infectious winner that should have been on the album. "Special" is still a great song, and one of VERSION 2.0's strongest tracks. The only weak spot here is the dull, unnecessary Brothers in Rhythm remix of "Special". Otherwise, "Special #2" is a worthy buy.

This was the first import that i have ever bought from Garbage, and i was so impressed that i have bought 9 more of them. The CD is excellent. Sure it only has 3 songs on it, but the song 13xForever makes up for it. This song is my favorite B-side. Shirley's vocals are just amazing, and the lyrics make the song phenominal. I would definately recomend this CD to anyone who is even an avid Garbage listener.

5 stars indeed.

You've all heard "Special", so I won't talk about that. The second track on this disc, a b-side called "13 X Forever", is typical Garbage: driving beat, sexy vocals, and clever hooks. A sample of the lyrics: " Thirteen times you f***ed with my karma; Thirteen times I sucked on your dogma." Cool! The third track is an interesting remix of "Special". The chord progressions are changed quite a bit, but the melody still works because it was extremely flexible to start with.

Summing it all up, this one is worth having.

Special by Garbage is a very "special" import from my favorite band. You get the single and one bonus track called 13 x Forever. I just love the unreleased track, great lyrics and incredible dance beat. Shirley and Co. just rock their little hearts out. Gotta get this one!
