Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars This is the collection you're looking for........2007-02-24

T'Pau is the perfect example of a group that caught on in Europe but never made much of an impression in the U.S., which is a real shame. This would easily have to be the greatest pop music that I didn't discover until after its time had passed. This greatest hits package in particular is just loaded with wonderful songs that never got any sort of attention in America.

A Place In My Heart is downright delicious from start to finish. Of the many brilliant songs that I've ever stumbled across by accident, this one is quite possibly my favorite. It reminds me of Roxette's "Fading Like A Flower (Every Time You Leave)," except the hooks are even more amazing here. (In fact, Roxette's use of guitar in that song is very similar to many of the songs on this album.)

Rating each of the songs on a scale from 1 to 10, over half of them get either a 9 or a 10 from me:

10/10: Heart And Soul, Bridge Of Spies, Whenever You Need Me, The Promise, and A Place In My Heart

9/10: I Will Be With You, Road To Our Dream, Only The Lonely, Secret Garden, Hold On To Love

8/10: Valentine, Sex Talk, Only A Heartbeat, Strange Place

7/10: No Sense Of Pride

This collection was reissued in 2005 with the exact same songs, a different cover, and a shorter title (Hits). If you missed out on this group the first time around, either of these collections will be a worthwhile investment.
