This album seems a long time coming. Some of the songs on there are about 4 years old (Pretty Green Eyes) but they, along with the the newer tracks make this a fine dance album. The inclusion of the older tracks can be forgiven, because of the memories they stir and the fact that they are still good tunes, but for the price, id rather have had an album of new songs. With a length of 49 minutes, it holds 14 songs in total, 15 if you include the intro, with at least 5 of them being previously released tracks. The cover songs are good also, the best in my opinion being track 8 - I'm Not In Love. Chances are, you will find yourself singing along with this album, but in all honestly i did find it started to all sound a little samey towards the end. The intro is unnecisary, and i think it was included to make up for the lack of released material, and original recordings. The inlay booklet on the inside of the cover, compared to most other artists, holds very little information. Unless you want to know writer and publisher credits, I wouldnt waste time looking at it. Also, the lack of artist information it holds, makes it look cheap, and rushed. The album name isnt the most original either. But if you are a fan of their older stuff, or like your dance music in general, id recomend this, it has enough tracks to listen to while getting ready for that big night out, but it isnt one id recomend to just sit down and listen too otherwise.
Advantages: brilliant to listen 2 Disadvantages: none

Advantages: Songs we all remember Disadvantages: none
The intro on the album tells us that the best things come to those who wait, and then launches into 'Pretty Green Eyes'.
This is the first dance, trance album released by Ultrabeat, and it certainly was a long time coming, but with all their singles listed, you can easily forgive them for taking so long. As far as rating it alongside todays music, this album certainly won't look out of place in your CD collection, infact, I am proud to have it as ...

...You have to admire Clubland for being able to consistently churn out the albums and the singles. This collection houses some superb dance tracks.
On this album:
Check out Ultrabeat's 'Feelin Fine' which will raise your pulse and the roof with some fierce pianolines and a pounding bassline. I also enjoyed Ian Van Dahl's track which is a soaring piece of eurphoric dance with some refreshing vocals.
Weak tracks:
Not too keen on the remix of Sophie Ellis Bextor which I feel does not sit well with the rest of the trancey tracks. It sounds like the remix has been rushed and the beats seems to quick for her gentle vocals.
Overall: A solid album if you like your dance hard and fast with that vocal edge. It is worht playing to warm up a night!...

...I was very excited about this clubland coming out as i have all of the clublands yet.
I really enjoyed the first 2 cds but the third cd (the live cd) i thought got abit chavy? with blackout crew bbbounce on there i thought it ruined the last cd a bit.
my favorite songs on this album are:
(first disk) ultrabeat-i wanna touch you.
(first disk) cascada- what hurts the most.
(second disk) david guetta- love is gone (brilliant in the clubs)
(third disk) breeze v lost witness- as i rise again (alex k mix)
This album is good to listen too while gettin ready for a night out but in my own opinion it doesnt beat all the other clublands i have got as this clubland has gone slightly chavy! an OK buy....
