Odd that the artwork is kept identical to the 1991 original. That makes me wonder if it's legit, or intended for global release.

If it is real then they need to drop the "complete singles" part cos it ain't true
Vocal has a radio edit, so surely that'd be included instead of the nearly 7 minute album version? Axis radio edit too, or was this just a promo single?
Do we consider Purple Zone a Pet Shop Boys song now as well as Soft Cell? Or would it only belong on a Soft Cell album?

Looks very well done. Wonder if true...
They're doing a Greatest Hits tour so it logically makes sense to have an album for sale.
And no Hallo Spaceboy again.
With a decent remaster too hopefully.
Why should Hallo SpaceBoy be included ?
From Wiki:
"Hallo Spaceboy" is a song by David Bowie from his 1995 album Outside, and the third and final single from the album. The track was re-recorded in 1996 and issued as a remix featuring Pet Shop Boys as guest artists. Bowie and Brian Eno co-wrote the original album version of the song.
And this is the single where it states clearly: David Bowie, not David Bowie &/feat PSB
cd single credits (It's Hello SpaceBoy (remix), PSB are credited as producer

No Absolutely fabulous either if we're being really picky.
That’s fine, I never really considered it a PSB song anyway, as a big fan of Bowie’s Outside album, that song strictly belongs him and that era.Why should Hallo SpaceBoy be included ?

But, does that mean Purple Zone is a Soft Cell song but remixed by PSB? Even though the song states Soft Cell & PSB? But the song already existed as a solo Soft Cell song before the release of their new album, but it was remixed by PSB and replaced on the album.
The single version of "How Can You Expect To Be Taken Seriously" also absent.
I think this compilation has been conjured up in a fan's mind.

I actually (....) thought I'd put Hallo Spaceboy 7" on my 12-disc PSB anthology, but I didn't. So it definitely shouldn't be there.
The Sundays, an ultimate 90s anthem....trapped between latterday Madness and The Farm.
Truly strange times.

CD 1 is the same as the original CD, 'How Can Be...' was never included.
Shakin Stevens a 90’s anthem… hmmm
He transcends the ages (and taste).
