This album includes all of the band's singles, plus some important album tracks. It also includes two new tracks; a cover of Prince's when doves cry (an excellent cover in my opinion) and Hey Mary Anne (a song that's standard TPOH). It also includes the original version of I'm an adult now; which I haven't heard since I was in high school. To top it all off, the songs have been remastered in 24 bit, and the refreshed sonics are a real treat. The only song missing from this compilation in my opinion is walking in the woods.

I have sex & food and just purchased this one, and in my opinion, if you have to choose, get this one as it is hands down the better of the two.

The sound quality is excellent; the disc is filled with their best tracks. If you like a power-pop sound, male lead vocalist and backing lady vocalists (who are very good), you'll like this.

I only heard a few of these tracks, but decided to go for the collection because I wanted more than One Sided Story. Having both versions of I'm An Adult Now is a real plus.

But my favorite song, No Safe Place, is not here, no big deal. I guess it did not have radio play, so is not considered a hit or single.

This is one of Canada's best exports. Crunching guitar riffs mixed with intricate female vocal harmonies and self-deprecating yet humourous lyrics. If you like other great Canadian bands like the Barenaked Ladies and Crash Test Dummies, these guys should please your palatte.
