The album features two new recordings "Beside You" and "I Have The Love". "Beside You" is a remake of the original recording from 1998 by Mick Hucknall for the soundtrack of the film "What Dreams May Come". "Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye" is the re-recorded version from the album "Simplified".
James Christopher Monger from AllMusic gave the album 3 ½ stars out of 5, saying “This 2010 collection from Simply Red focuses on the group’s romantic side. [The album was] released to coincide with their farewell world tour".[2]
