"Get Ready!" was the first album released by 2 Unlimited. The album achieved #17 [1] in the Netherlands and #37 in the UK. Despite the moderate chart success, it was one of the few Dutch bands which set out to conquer the world and even gained access to the difficult American market.

Ironically the success in the Dutch market was initially limited, since the band mainly relied on their Belgian producers who preferred to focus their attention on the British market. [2]
