Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

This CD contains only 10 tracks, but they're all solid hits. Best Of even includes "The War Song," the least successful of Culture Club's Top 40 hits but one of their better songs. "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me," "Time (Clock of the Heart)," "I'll Tumble 4 Ya," "Church of the Poison Mind," "Karma Chameleon," "Miss Me Blind"--they're all here, so put some braids in that hair, grab a hat and your reddest lipstick, and sashay to the cool and breezy vibrato of Boy George and his crew. --Beth Bessmer

3.0 out of 5 stars All The Culture Club You Will Ever Need, September 16, 1999

By A Customer

For about a year and a half in the mid 80's this band, most notably its flamboyant lead singer Boy George were everywhere. Some of their singles, while far from cutting edge, were catchy and entertaining, and this CD has them all, except the forgettable "Mistake Number 3." Once the novelty wore off the group faded into its current has been status, and on this CD you have all the Culture Club you will ever need.

5.0 out of 5 stars be on the look out!, April 6, 2006

By	damezy dmoe (portland or. usa) - See all my reviews

Check this out! I was in Seattle a couple of weeks ago, doing some cd shopping and came across this cd, and the moment I looked at the playlist I was hooked. I had no intention of even buying The Culture Club. I don't know about the one featured here, but mine was a import and contains 16 tracks, for 10 or 11 bucks(brand new).

Now i'm not a huge huge fan, but i like them a lot. To me, this is all the culture club i will need. I guess some people are talking about some song "move away", well it's not on mine. I don't remember the song and dont miss it. I was 5 or 6 when they were at their peak, so i could be missing something, I doubt it though. If u find the import u should stop, pick up, and purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars Has All of Their Best Songs!, April 26, 2003

By	Aaron (Ohio, USA) - See all my reviews

Culture Club was a smash in the early/mid 80's with a string of successful pop hits. They are still one of the most remembered pop groups to come out of the 80's. This is a great collection for such a cheap price considering it's loaded with hits. Of course, you get their signature #1 hit from 1984 "Karma Chameleon." Definitely an 80's favorite of mine. You also get the top 5 hit ballad "Do You Really Want To Hurt Me" which is also very recognizable. Other top 10 hits include the catchy "Miss Me Blind," "Time (Clock of the Heart)," "Church of the Poison Mind," and another of my personal favorites "I'll Tumble 4 Ya." I also really like "Move Away" and even "The War Song." Any fan of 80's pop music or pop in general should be on the look-out for this collection!
