Greatest hits albums are boring and too predictable most of the time. Of course the hits have to be there, but imo some deeper cuts should be included in a "greatest hits" album, so that a new listener understands exactly what to expect from a band. I tried to include songs from as many albums as possible. I left out No Prayer, FF and BOS, because I wanted to include a Blaze song or two. The only real hits that missed out are 2MTM, CIPWM and Daughter.
