Barenaked Ladies - Original Hits, Original Stars (Greatest Hits)

Original Hits, Original Stars features early favorites like “The Old Apartment” from 1996’s Born On A Pirate Ship and a live version of “Brian Wilson,” which appeared on the concert album Rock Spectacle (1996), the band’s first platinum-selling album in the U.S.

Much of Original Hits, Original Stars draws on the critical and commercial success Barenaked Ladies enjoyed with Stunt (1998) and Maroon (2000). Stunt was certified 4x platinum in the U.S. and included “It’s All Been Done” and the Grammy-nominated international smash, “One Week,” which reached the #1 spot on Billboard’s Hot 100 Chart on October 17, 1998. Maroon, another U.S. platinum-selling release, included “Falling For The First Time” and the Grammy-nominated single “Pinch Me.” This album also features “Easy” from 2006’s Barenaked Ladies Are Me, “You Run Away” from 2010’s All in Good Time and “Odds Are” from 2013’s Grinning Streak. This is also the first time the band's iconic theme song to the hit TV series 'Big Bang Theory" appears on vinyl.

Heavyweight vinyl produced by Rhino Records in 2019.
