This is a straight reissue of the original Cutting Crew best-of, which appeared in 1994. Still on import (this time appearing through EMI), The Best of Cutting Crew leaves the sequence and track listing unchanged, but does marginally update the cover art. Also -- perhaps tellingly -- its uncredited liners now include a plea to end illegal downloading. Musically, the set is still comprehensive, both for casual listeners and completists. "(I Just) Died in Your Arms" is here, and its whispery synths still kill. Don't worry about the "extended remix" -- inexplicably, it's only seven seconds longer. But "Any Colour" is quite capable synth pop, and the propulsive "One for the Mockingbird" is perfect for practicing that Molly Ringwald shoulder sway. The latter fades nicely into the ballad "I've Been in Love Before," a pillowy gem that still occasionally finds its way onto lite rock play lists.
