This CD is Great!

I love all the songs on this CD! Just wish 98 degerees were still a group to make more good songs like the ones on this cd. July 12, 2004

This is good!

Ever since I heard The Hardest Thing on a compilation that MTV Asia put together on a CD, I have liked this song. Invisible Man was not all that bad either. Very good effort from Nick, Jeff, Drew and Justin! December 20, 2000

could've been 5 stars (like the cassette)...to hyperbaby13

Hope you guys don't feel cheated, but the cassette version of this single had a fourth song, as well...please read below...

98 Degrees has two great melodies: "Invisible Man" and "Hardest Thing", both of which can be found on this CD. These two love balads are among my favorites, especially "Invisible Man", which at once mixes delicately a smooth beat and soothing lyrics. The CD single for "Invisible Man" was superb, since it contained the instrumental version of the song, which was a terrific surprise; I just love the instrumental and need to hear it at least once a day it seems. Unfortunately, the CD single for "Hardest Thing" has only the radio edit version of the song. However, the cassette version of this single contains all three tunes found on the CD PLUS the album (longer) version of "Hardest Thing", a fact I'm not sure many people know about. The fact that I already had the "Invisible Man" CD at home made buying the cassette version of the "Hardest Thing" single easy, since I could listen to it in my car (I don't have a CD player in my car). It was the perfect situation. (Well, I suppose the most perfect situation would have been to have the instrumental version of "Invisible Man" in place of the remixed version of "Because of You"--although it's better than the non-remixed version, which I don't even like--AND to have it available on CD, since the cassette single in my car is wearing out!). So, the cassette version gets a 5, but the CD version gets a 4. November 1, 2000

Excellent

track 1: its a shorter version, and it doesnt sound so good, but it's alright.

track 2: nice remix, but it needs more beats to it.

track 3: a sweet song that everybody feels about someone they like/love. when you really listen to it, you sort of get the impression that the girl they're talking about isnt all that, but the guys really like her.

overrall, a good single. February 26, 2000

I Loved it and I hope they have some more good ones
