While it is true that it is missing some key 12-inch versions (´Lose Your Love´ being the main one), it has impeccable, professional packaging and great music. Buy the CD and you will see that it is a quality release. I disagree with previous opinions and do not believe ´Mixing On The Ceiling´ was mislabeled at all--if I remember correctly, it is from a ten-inch single called Son of Ceiling which was never purported to be a mega-mix medley. Regarding concerns about slightly different song versions, as long as you have the original version of the album (and if you don´t, buy the LP used on here or on eBay for a low price!), who cares? I always thought that having longer/different versions of songs by groups you are a big fan of was a good thing--first, because it gives you better insight into the artist´s work of creating the music, and second, because it is like having the extended version of those songs. As regards ´Side Two´ (the actual title of the song), this is a different version of ´22339´ which was released as a B-side on the ´What´s Your Problem´ twelve-inch single (that had the queen of hearts on the cover.) I actually like ´Side Two´ better than the album version of ´22339´ because it seems more raw and genuine. In effect, Blancmange´s ´Side Two´ is to ´22339´ what Weezer´s Pinkerton is to the green album (more from the heart and with less production and/or remixing, which is sometimes better.) Anyway, do not let previous reviewers prevent you from buying this CD if you are a big Blancmange fan. You will be glad you did.. And summed up by saying Awesome re-release. Currently Believe You Me has an overall rating of 6 over 10.
