[edit] Background
In 2006, Hillsong United's key songwriter and worship pastor Joel Houston proposed a three-part series of releases under the banner of "I Heart Revolution", stating it's not about loving revolution, but simply about the revolution of the use of the term "I heart...". The first of these was initially to be the eighth album (and first studio album) by Hillsong United. That album was simply released with the title All of the Above. The second of these to be part of the series was to be an extended play release compiled of performances by Hillsong United's under 21-year-old members. This ended up being released without the I Heart Revolution title also, only under the title In a Valley by the Sea. Finally, having recorded every performance by themselves for the prior two years, Hillsong United decided to release a compilation album comprising the best performances of the best of the whole era of Hillsong United, while including two new songs, "You'll Come", written and performed by Brooke Fraser, and "Love Enough", written by Braden Lang & Scott Ligertwood and performed by Jonathon Douglass, who had previously sung the song for the Under 21 EP, but not for a "full" Hillsong United album. Both of these new songs were performed in Sydney, while all other songs included were from throughout the world. As the album was recorded throughout the world, the cover art also features notable landmarks from throughout the world, including O Cristo Redentor (Christ the Redeemer), which appears three times on the cover, including at the centre of the heart. Others featured include the Pyramids of Giza, the Empire State Building, the Eiffel Tower, the Colloseum, Big Ben, the Statue of Liberty and various pictures of people from throughout the world.[2]

[edit] Formats
As with most albums, it was released as a CD and also on digital music retailers, but was also released on a one gigabyte USB flash drive, enveloped in a black rubber wristband. This USB version included all of the songs in MP3 format, the lyrical overhead master sheets, a PDF copy of the liner sleeve, and the two versions of the album cover.[3]
[edit] Charts
In its first eligible week, beginning 23 March 2008, the album peaked at #8 in the albums section of ARIA Charts and remained in the charts for the following three weeks, in lower positions.[4] In New Zealand, it charted at #36 in its week of release, though climbed to its peak position of #22 in the following week of 17 March 2008.[5] In the US, it peaked at #117 on the Billboard 200 albums chart on 19 April 2008.[6]
