Two versions of the album were brought out: a European edition (1995) and a UK edition (1996). They contain the same songs, except for one: on the UK edition Stand up for myself was replaced by a new song, King Midas, which also served as a last single of the group in the summer of 1996. King Midas was also available in the US Version of the Album which was released shortly after "Give my life" smashed US Dance Charts.

This Compilation album returned Army of lovers back in the charts and has sold over 4,1 million Copies by the end of the year 2009. It also became Army of lovers highest selling album in the States (With Sales over 1 million.)
