[edit] The Three Versions

There were three different versions that were put out for this compilation. The Oceanian double disc edition had a sticker with the "Limited edition 2CD set" mention on it. In other markets it wasn't a limited release though.

The three versions had a different title, the single disc edition was taglined "The Greatest Hits", while the dual disc was just "Greatest Hits".

The double disc version has a first disc collecting 15 singles from their six studio albums, plus a bonus disc including "eight previously unreleased b-sides and demos". The art work features the all black background and a red question mark and yellow lettering under it, like the one of the Northern American edition of "Who Cares A Lot: Greatest Videos". The bonus disc artwork is the inversion of colors of the first disc.

The single disc edition does not include the bonus disc, and the front cover of the art work is different, it is a black and white photography featuring Benny Hill sitting and surrounded by female legs. The same art was used in the UK, European and Oceanian edition of Who Cares A Lot: The Greatest Videos (with the added "the").

In United Kingdom and Oceania both versions had the Benny Hill cover art. It was also used in the special version for Europe.

The double disc edition was not released in the European market, but instead a single disc edition with extra tracks. These pieces are five b-sides taken from the eight-track bonus CD.
