Product Description

CD Description
As the title suggests this album brings together all of Abba's number one singles in one package, including their nine UK number ones. From 'Waterloo' to 'Super Trouper', the album showcases why the band have sold over 370 million albums to date and why they continue to inspire pop music over thirty years after breaking onto the world stage with their Eurovision win in 1974.

2.0 out of 5 stars A pointless release, 2 Aug 2007
It seems to be fashionable to release albums of worldwide number one hits. The Beatles started the trend in 2000.

So 2006 provided Universal with the opportunity to give Abba the Number Ones treatment. Trouble is, most of the tracks are already on Abba Gold. As other reviews have stated, three tracks from Abba Gold have been removed as they weren't No. 1 hit singles anywhere. Of the "No. 1's" that have replaced them, only Summer Night City was a Top 5 hit in the UK. The other two barely touched the Top 40 (Ring Ring No. 32 and I Do, I Do etc No. 38) but obviously did reach the summit elsewhere.

If Abba Gold didn't exist, then this compilation may have had a point, but as it stands, it has no purpose. If you want the big UK hits, get Abba Gold. If you desire all the singles, invest in The Definitive Collection. Don't buy this one.

3.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding songs, but a cynical and pointless compilation, 8 Nov 2006
By Penn Name (Scotland) - See all my reviews
The premise? "Number one songs and songs from number one albums". The reality; a repackaged ABBA Gold with three substitutions.

Unfortunately, although the three replacement songs are catchy and fun, two of ABBA's very best songs ("Lay All Your Love On Me" and "Thank You For The Music") have been lost. Worse, it still doesn't include Gold's only serious omission, "The Day Before You Came".

If you're considering the 2CD special edition of "Number Ones", bear in mind that Disc 2 is just a mish-mash of album tracks. (Some are excellent, but you may as well buy the original albums.) And it still doesn't include the missing songs above.

My advice? If you want a single-disc compilation of the very best ABBA hits, buy "ABBA Gold".
For little more, the double-CD "ABBA: The Definitive Collection" includes *all* the songs on Gold, plus lesser-known classics. Even with a couple of ropey early singles near the start (the tracks being ordered by date), it's definitely the best ABBA compilation. Both this and "Gold" are still readily available through Amazon.

The music is still 5 star material... but as a slightly inferior and totally pointless rehash of ABBA Gold, "Number Ones" really doesn't deserve that much.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great album with music that still sounds modern., 2 Dec 2006
By sm "sm" (Wirral) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
We paid that little bit extra for the 2xdisc version of the album,it just seemed far better value.In truth,the songs you want to hear are on the first disc so i would now recommend the single disc album.The songs are great to hear again,are uplifting and still with a modern sound.The fact they haven't dated shows the quality of both the performance and writing.Though i've enjoyed the album,i can't help the feeling it'll disappear to the bottom of the pile.That doesn't detract from the album,it's just a personal feeling of where it will be in our music collection,one of those albums that will make an odd appearance and not be played too often.That said,every collection should have this album in it,definitely recommended.Superb singing,lyrics you sing-along with and fantastic music all make for a great album.
