Let's have a "rarities" discussion. Are we to assume b-sides are not 'rarities', because that would make me insanely happy. I'd love to see In Your Blood, Tell Me, Stand Alone, Tuesday (?), and things we have no idea exist rather than b-sides like Lazy Eye and I'm Awake Now that all of the big fans already have.
It sounds like (and I'm really hoping) they'll be copying the Replacements format on All For Nothing/Nothing For All, where the first cd is the 'hits' (pseudo hits and should have beens for the 'Mats, actual hits for the Goos) and then a second cd with really obscure stuff.
Oh, and since when did counting go 10, 11, 12, 14?

Anyway, this is very good confirmation and speculation. Confirmations:
*date of greatest hit #1
*14 tracks on it
*other greatest hits will have others besides singles
Speculation:
*Will #2 have 2 discs, one being GH1 and the other being the rarities? Meaning there's no point in buying the first GH?
*Define rarities.
*How many on #2?
*Will they be remastered or extended?
Don't forget to add So The Story Goes and Working On A Dream to that list red o  |

I think Without You Here is pretty dead. I don't think they anticipated releasing BITL to carry them through the summer and they're not even playing WYH on the tour. Considering November 11th is a Sunday and the counting error, I'm pretty sure this announcement has a lot more incorrect information. WBR might not even be talking about the Goos for all we know...
And "meh" on So the Story Goes and "ugh" on Waiting (Working) on a Dream. The rarities disc will probably be something like:
1. Lazy Eye
2. I Don't Want to Know
3. GALB
4. GALB (the remix)
5. Better Days (the Christmas remix)
6. Naked (the remix)
7. Slide (acoustic)
8. Iris (acoustic)
9. We'll Be Here (acoustic)
10. GALB (the 8 minute version)
And then you'll never hear from me again because my brain has exploded.

I don't hate So the Story Goes. I just see why it was never finished/ put on an album. And it's weird. Give me that one...
The dance version of GALB was actually banned for explicit lyrics. Didn't you hear about that?

Are we going to get one of these press releases saying the same thing every time they get another "hit" now? lol.

HAHAHAHA, Drew for the win. 
Oh, and if this collection contains that godawful "Name" dance remix that was floating around a couple years ago (no, seriously, anybody still have that??), it'll probably make my life complete.
