"the fact that Jive thinks it's necessary to release a 'best hits' of aaron carter is just ridiculous. how old is he? young 20s? not only has he not had all that many albums, but his songs really aren't worthy of a 'best hits' album. theyre just not. he's aaron carter. please don't support Jive's pathetic attempt to make money, this is a disgrace to music."

"This is (count it) the third compilation CD Jive has released for Aaron Carter. That is including the double set of Aaron's Party and Oh Aaron. This CD breaks no new ground and is just truly a step backwards for Aaron. The one possible redeeming factor could be the release of Bounce and AC's Alien Nation (long forgotten on the Jimmy Neutron Soundtrack).
But the rest of the songs we have heard before and they appear on several other CDs. One song that has always been conspicous by its absence is called "Sugar" - a technoish song that was never released because it too closely resembled Daniel Bettingfield's "We Gotta Get Through This." If only Aaron had released it first, it would have been his breakthrough song.
Also missing from this collection is "Life is a Party" from the Rugrats in Paris Soundtrack. Seriously people, don't waste your time with this rehashed excuse for a corporate shill of a CD. Instead, go download the two songs mentioned above."
Don't get fooled!

"This album is not "new" in any way - it only wants you to waste your money. If you bought "Most Requested Hits" from 2003, you have already bought this album too. I bought "most Requested Hits" for 3 songs ("Sugar", "She Wants Me" and "One Better"). Today I think it was not worth the money at all. I gave a few dollars just for three songs. I used to support Aaron and I have all 5 albums, but now, he's engaged and he's probably too busy to make another record. I mean, it's been 4 years since the last time! Aaron Carter is a part of the past. Now you people let him enjoy his bong alone=)"

"Newsflash: His second "Greatest Hits" album in a row (his last album: "Aaron Carter: Most Requested Hits (2003)"), while he doesn't even score hits anymore:
Zijn last "hit" was in 2001 ["Leave It Up To Me" #22 in UK]... After this, he released 9 other singles
[Not Too Young, Not Too Old - "I'm All About You" - "Another Earthquake" - "Summertime" - "To All the Girls" - "Do You Remember" - "She Wants me" (with Nick) - "One Better" - "Saturday Night"]
ALL, piece by piece, FLOPPED! 4 of them are mentioned on this album:
1. Aaron's Pary (Come Get It) - #51 UK
2. That's How I Beat Shaq - #96 US
3. Bounce [new]
4. My Internet Girl [new]
5. I Want Candy - #31 UK
6. Leave It Up To Me - #22 in Engeland
7. A.C.'s Alien Nation ["Jimmy Neutron, Boy Genius" soundtrack]
8. Oh Aaron - Huge Flop
9. I'm All About You - Huge Flop
10. To All the Girls - Flop
11. Another Earthquake - Huge Flop
12. One Better - Flop
As you see, not even one top 20 hit, nowhere... My opinion should be clear by now. If you ask me, his 2003 "Aaron Carter: Most Requested Hits" is far better than this one! I'm sorry for the fans, It's sadly but true. This can't even be called a "greatest hits" album anymore... There are 2 (of the 12) songs you can call a "hit"."
This not a best of !!

"I don't know why Jive is toying with Aaron, by releasing this kind of not worthwhile release.There is almost no difference with the Most Requested Hits cd. Aaron deserves better.
It only can be called a best of, when also his 4 hits of his first album were included. (trans continental records/Edel)
I'm a 100 % Aaron fan and i have more than 100 CDs of him (released from different counties ect), but I would NOT buy this cd."
