Amazon.co.uk Review
Best reminds us that in their short reign as the UK's premier pop group, S Club 7 performed some absolutely cracking songs. This retrospective of their four-album career includes party anthems such as "Bring It All Back" and "Reach", heart-wrenching ballads, "Never Had a Dream" and unforgettable floor-fillers such as the massive "Don't Stop Movin'". Best is conclusive proof that "There ain't no party like an S Club party". --Georgina Collins

Customer Reviews

A great hits compilation
S Club 7 will always be remembered as the group who exploded onto the pop scene by means of their kids' TV series "Miami 7", thus perhaps cheating a little, but there is no doubt that this tactic worked a treat for the group. The unstoppable seven racked up hit after hit in the UK and a large number of other territories, all of their singles apart from one entering into the UK Top 3, which is almost unheard of these days. "Best" includes every last one of these infectious pop tracks, plus two extra songs.

The singles are included in chronological order, from the irresistible, bouncy pop of "Bring it all back", released in June 1999, to the heartfelt final single "Say goodbye". Typical S Club cheesy pop is thrust into the spotlight by the wonderfully happy "S Club party", "Reach", "You're my number one", "Love ain't gonna wait for you" and "You", all of which are guaranteed to put a smile on the listener's face. However, there is plenty of variety included in this album; the slightly more chilled "Natural" is S Club's only single with a hint of R 'n' B buried in there under Rachel's smooth vocals and the lovely oboe solos. Jo's amazing voice is the highlight of all the ballads, notably "Have you ever", "Two in a million", the afore-mentioned "Say goodbye" (although all of the members sing lead vocals on this track, Jo proves that she has by far the strongest voice) and the brilliant Children in Need 2000 single "Never had a dream come true". This track is, for me, one of the best singles the group released, as it sounds like the whole song has been sprinkled with fairy dust, and Jo sounds as if she means every word she is singing. My other favourite from "Best" is the group's biggest-selling single and arguably their anthem, "Don't stop movin'" - Record of the Year in 2001 and twice UK no. 1, this is the single that S Club are most famous for releasing, and rightly so.

The two bonus tracks featured on this album give me mixed feelings. "Everybody get pumped" is a huge let-down after thirteen fantastic pop tracks; the record company couldn't find the time to look out a song that truly reflects on the album's title, "Best", could they? As is the custom with most modern pop bands, they are presented with a few great singles and are then promptly thrown a load of time-wasting tunes to fill up album space. "Everybody get pumped" is the only track on this album that I skip when listening to it, as it is horrendously under-developed and features minimal lyrics that don't really make sense. The last track, however, is an S Club favourite from their second album, "Bring the house down", which more than makes up for the failure of the preceding track. This displays more classic, infectious S Club pop and is a great way to end the album.

Overall, S Club 7's greatest hits collection is an excellent reminder of how unstoppable these guys were during their chart reign of 1999-2003. It has become almost a cliché that "there ain't no party like an S Club party", but this album definitely proves that this statement is true.

S club 7 - Best
Well it seems like only yesterday since they were singing "bring it all back" but now look at them all grown up and going their own ways. This album is a must for any S club fan. It features all of their hits, including their last 2 singles (sniff) "Love Aint Gunna Wait" and "Say Goodbye". It has something for everyone as their musical style has matured as theyve grown up. Songs like "S club Party" "Reach" and "Alive" will have you bopping away on the dancefloor, while "Two In a Million", "Have You Ever" and "Never had a dream come true" will leave you all misty-eyed. This really is the best of S Club 7, and if their joint efforts are anything to go by, their solo careers shouldnt be too far off!

Best is good enough!
It certainly is the end of an era now that S Club formerly S Club 7 have decided that nowadays churning out more and more second class hits will mean going out with less dignity than they already have. This Album however compiling their greatest hits is a must have for any s club fan. With the uplifting first single bring it all back and the classic reach and dance floor filler don't stop movin this album is worth buying. Towards the end it does get a bit drab with Say Goodbye, Everybody Get Pumped and Bring The House Down which are the second class songs I mentioned. I would still recommend this album to all those teeny boppers and slightly older less admitting fans!!!!!
