It has the same name as
the Crüe’s 1998 compilation, along with 13 of the same tracks, but the 2009
Greatest Hits is a different beast than its predecessor, weighing in at 19 tracks instead of 17 and sequenced chronologically instead of the year-skipping hodgepodge of 1998. These are all improvements, as are the swapping of a 1997 version of “Shout at the Devil” for the original and the addition of the 1983 song “Too Young to Fall in Love,” all helping to make this edition of
the Crüe’s much-recycled
Greatest Hits their best comp yet. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
