Their hits were a mix of originals and covers, the latter coming from a wide range of sources. The covers include Love me for a reason (Osmonds), Father and son (Cat Stevens), Words (Bee Gees), Baby can I hold you (Tracy Chapman), When the going gets tough (Billy Ocean) and You needed me (Anne Murray). When you say nothing at all (originally recorded by country singer Keith Whitley but made more famous by bluegrass singer Alison Krauss) is actually a Ronan Keating solo track. The opening track, I love the way you love me, also began as a country song, being co-written by Victoria Shaw who has written songs for Garth Brooks among others. The members of Boyzone wrote some of their own songs including Picture of you, Isn't it a wonder, A different beat, So good, Coming home now and Key to my life.
At around the time this compilation was originally released, Ronan Keating went solo and the group disbanded. Ronan has been very successful as a solo singer and his solo greatest hits album (which also includes When you say nothing at all) was a big seller in the UK when released in time for Christmas 2004. The music on this compilation is the best of what he and the others did before he went solo.
All the hits are here, from the first UK single "Love me for a reason" from 1994 right up to "You needed me" which hit the No.1 spot in 1999, and famously outsold Geri Halliwell's debut solo single. The album starts with, in my opinion, Boyzone's best single "I love the way you love me" one of many cover versions, the track first appeared on "Where we belong" the groups last studio album, and reached no.2 in November 1998.
Other hightlights include "No matter what", taken from the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical "Whistle down the wind", "A Different Beat", "Father and Son" and Ronan Keating's debut solo single "When you say nothing at all". Also featured is three new tracks which first appeared on the American release of "Where we belong". "All the time in the world" is not bad, it's a bit bland in comparison with the other ballads on this album. "I'll never not need you" is one of my favourites as it's more uptempo and a great pop track. "So they told me" is a more RnB track and is very different to anything Boyzone have ever done before.
All in all a great album and well worth buying if you don't own a Boyzone album.
