A more full instrumental than the album version. While there are pleny of welcome additions, some of the simplicity of the original is lost, especially during the 2nd half. Overall a very nice song still.

Vocals make this extremely grating with the boring, half-asleep, lifeless delivery on every track. The vocals also come with an annoying chorus/doubling effect and so much reverb I can hardly hear the rest of the instrumental most of the time to distract myself. I struggle to find anything of substance in the tracks that I would want to actually come back to. Probably my least favorite must hear album from this site.
A lot of these songs made my childhood and will always be something I come back to, however some of the lesser known songs and covers of songs not originally performed by Crush-40 can be really hit or miss.
