Greatest Hits Album?

I was a little confused when I saw that DT was coming out with a greatest hits disc. Especially since they only had one hit. I was feeling much better when I heard the title, "Greatest Hit & 19 Other Pretty Cool Songs" :)

It will be released on March 18, 2008. More details as soon as we get them!
