Wow. Thanks a lot for the info!

Here is the track listing, according to www.amazon.co.uk:

1. Be Young Be Foolish Be Happy
2. Better The Devil You Know
3. Only Fools Never Fall In Love
4. Boogie Nights
5. You To Me Are Everything
6. Young Hearts Run Free
7. Not What I Call Love
8. From Me To You
9. Just One Look
10. Rescue Me
11. Breakdown
12. Say Goodbye To Me
13. That Boy
14. Walk Away Lover
15. Strong Without You

Honestly, though, it's quite horrible. Notwithstanding the cover picture, endorsing the myth of Sonia as a not-so-clever-but-always-happy little girl with curls in her hair, this supposed 'Greatest Hits' is in reality only a merging of the second and third albums. Half from each. So, greatest hits obviously has nothing to do with it.

I wonder how Sonia herself feels about this release. I can't imagine that she would be very pleased with it ... The actually *greatest hits* are obviously excluded, and on top of that, the package brings absolutely *nothing* for the fans. Not a thing. If Sony BMG had at least gone through the troubles of including any of the unreleased 'A Song for Europe' tracks, there would have been *some* point to all this, but this is really just ridiculous. Even the dub mix of 'Boogie Nights' would have been something.

Oh well. I suppose it's good that some Sonia music is in print again. I guess. But not with this picture on the cover. Or with this title.
