MTV Party To Go 2

The weakest song on here IMO is "Playground", which is kind of ridiculous.

Coincidentally, this was my college freshman year in a nutshell: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MTV_Party_to_Go_1998

That P.M. Dawn track samples Spandau Ballet and manages to do something great with it.

Tough choice here between '3AM Eternal' and 'Summertime.'

This is one of the greatest comps ever released.

OTM^infinity

"Summertime," just over the reset of them.

painfully grim flashback-inducer for me

I guess it's between the KLF and OPP really

I feel like Sadeness was the song every girl wanted to make out too, except for the one I ended up marrying (who wanted to make out to Black Sabbath)

Do not sleep on "All 4 Love", a song so good it made me stop hating the Color Me Badd singles that preceded it. (Okay, I do still hate "I Adore Mi Amor" but not as much as I used to; thanks, "All 4 Love"!)

I don't know if I necessarily know the particular remixes, but based on the songs themselves I'll go with "Set Adrift" over "O.P.P."

I can't recall the Another Bad Creation, Color Me Badd or C+C Music Factory songs based on the titles alone, but I'm sure I'd know 'em if I heard 'em.

p.m. dawn

crypto, here's the Color Me Badd song. It rules.

This collection is segued so perfectly -- it's like the best deejay at the best house party I hit my senior year of high school. All it was missing was "Gypsy Woman," "It Ain't Over Til It's Over," and "Every Heartbeat."

(well, no on the last one; that's at my fantasy house party)

This comp makes parties back then seem so more fun than parties nowadays.

"Playground". I love this remix.

This is a great compilation.

I can't remember these comps ever making it to continental Europe? I'm sure they would've been present in my circles if these'd been around, or we missed them somehow.

Going with "Motownphilly."

I can only remember one Color Me Badd song, and it's... not this one!

Color Me Badd was basically a terrible joke for two singles and then they released this one, which was such a jump up in quality that I didn't believe it was the same group for about a week.

Whoa did not realise '3AM Eternal' did as well on the Billboard Hot 100 as it did.

Nothing quite sounded like it -- the mishmash of "Simon Says" keys, arena rock, and Aurora. Perfect late summer hit.

I chose "Motownphilly", but I would have voted for "Poison" by BBD if it were on here.

Yeah, this Color Me Badd track is nice, and surprising, as I didn't even like "I Wanna Sex You Up" or "Mi Amore" at the time.

People, do not ignore "Here We Go Let's Rock & Roll," superior to "Gonna Make You Sweat" and not played as much.

I'll go further: it made "True" exist for the purpose of being sampled.

K7's timeless classic 'Come Baby Come' missing from this compilation... heh heh heh...

It got 0 votes in the Jock Jams poll.

I chose "Motownphilly", but I would have voted for "Poison" by BBD if it were on here.

I see that 'Poison' was on Volume 1. Amusingly so is 'Personal Jesus'.

OMG, this was one of like ten CDs that soundtracked my junior/senior years of high school. I see that it was released in May of '92, which means I somehow stumbled upon this CD four years after it was released. "Set Adrift.." is definitely the one I'm sure I'd still love if I listened to it again.

The mix of "OPP" on here is sublime. Much better than the "real" version.

Def “motownphilly,” obvious choice

Def “motownphilly,” obvious choice

The vote so nice I said it twice

I think there at least 5 different obvious choices (including "Motownphilly")

The problem is these are all obvious choices.

oh im not saying this isn't a great comp across the board

'summertime' is prob also on that level, now that i think about it, though

Not too hard, not too soft

This is a pretty amazing comp.
Gotta go salt n pepa

All of these were big hits in the UK except Another Bad Creation which I don't think I've ever heard. Maybe Martin Fry intimidated them into submission.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

Now poll the rest of the series.

"Good Vibrations" (Ultimix Remix) – Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch featuring Loleatta Holloway 0

God hasn't forgiven him yet.

Wow, even though I voted for it, I didn't expect 3am to take it.
