He can’t sing and he doesn’t write lyrics. Yet with more than 4 million albums scanned in the US and DJ gigs that have outdrawn most rock stars, Fatboy Slim has become an undeniable part of the musical backdrop. Phrases like “Right about now, the funk soul brother,” “Right here, right now,” and “I’ve got to praise you” have all become part of the vernacular while images of Christopher Walken dancing and Spike Jonze spastically shimmying have become indelible images. With 5 Grammy nominations (including one win) and an unprecedented 9 MTV video awards, it is little wonder that Fatboy Slim’s audience crosses over into the rock, pop and dance worlds and extends from club kids up to soccer moms.

 

And now for the first time ever, The Greatest Hits – Why Try Harder? brings together all the songs that made Fatboy Slim the biggest dance artist and DJ on the planet. This collection also includes two brand new tracks “Champion Sound” and the new single “That Old Pair of Jeans” featuring vocalist Lateef of Blackalicious.

 

 

And if that’s not enough the album also features Fatboy Slim’s two biggest selling remixes, being the only remixer to two have two UK charting remixes released as singles: Cornershop’s “Brimful Of Asha(Fatboy Remix)” which reached #1 and Groove Armada’s “I See You Baby (Fatboy Slim Remix)” which reached #5.
