The success of “The Crying Game” marked a comeback for Boy George, especially in the U.S., where his solo career had never taken hold beyond the dance clubs, and SBK (distributor of his label, Virgin) took advantage of his resurgence by compiling this 75-minute, 19-track album, which combines his former group Culture Club’s biggest hits with selections from his solo work. The ten Culture Club tracks are of a piece, from 1982’s “Do You Really Want to Hurt Me” (which here leads off with an ominous voice intoning, “Popularity breeds contempt”) to “Love Is Love,” which wasn’t a hit but is a better choice than the missing “War Song,” which was. The solo tracks are a more mixed batch, and not only because Top 40 U.K. hits like “Keep Me in Mind,” “Sold,” and “To Be Reborn” are missing. They often rely on loud percussion tracks that strand Boy George’s tender tenor somewhere in the distance. He remains most effective on rhythmic ballads, whether “Do You Really Want to Hurt Me,” “Everything I Own” (his chart-topping first U.K. solo hit), or “The Crying Game.” ~ Allmusic
