"Great compilation. Hard to condense only so many songs into one album from a library that could of easily filled another whole album of epic tracks. But what's on this is well deserved. An essential for those who can't be bothered with the studio albums"  Reply

"Kay Hanley had the perfect '90's girly teen television/movie soundtrack singing voice, (heard on "Melrose Place", "Josie & The Pussycats", and of course "10 Things I Hate About You"). This album is decent. My favorite track is "Disappear"."  Reply
