A CLASSICAL is just "pretty" throughout, not many "daring" or complex tracks. I'll have to listen to this album again with headphones in FLAC and make another assessment. Sometimes you just need to close your eyes and simply take in the music.

I think a more interesting tracklist would have included:
I find it interesting that although STEP you was the most popular song when A BEST 2 was released in 2007, it didn't hold up to the test of time like the other songs selected for this. Either that, or it was overlooked.
