• New project comment from yourmusiczone.com & 'EMI-CMG Distribution':
  »On the heels of Newsboys’ long-awaited return to its rock roots, "GO" (2006), arrives an epic remix album for longtime fans and new ones alike.
  "Go | Remixed" contains smash songs from the original record, like the multi-format radio hit, "Wherever We Go," in new form thanks to original mixes by famed producers Tedd T., Max Hsu of Superchic(k), Jeff Frankenstein and Lee Bridges.
  Given the public’s extraordinary reception to Newsboys’ current release, "GO | Remixed" is sure to deliver more of the same but exceeding beyond listeners’ expectations.«
  
  
• The release date is set for May 8th 2007. Remixers include Newsboys' own Jeff Frankenstein, Max Hsu of Superchic[k], Tedd T. (Tjornhom; also original producer of 'Go') and Lee Bridges (already worked for: India Arie, Johnny Lang, Nick Lachey, Superchic[k], Mat Kearney, and Backstreet Boys).
  
  
• Peter's comment: »I have always loved remix CDs. They’re like one of those TV makeover shows: you give the words and melody a new jacket and shoes, the rhythm a nip n’ tuck, and send it out on the dance floor.«
  
  
• Remixer info:
  • Wherever We Go: Lee Bridges
    
  • Go: Lee Bridges

• album comment from 'EMI-CMG Distribution':
  »Featuring the hit single, “I Am Free”, newsboys prepare to launch their highly anticipated new album on October 31, 2006. GO is the first rock record from newsboys in nearly 5 years, and their fans are primed and ready for more of the band’s original high-energy pop sounds. With songs like the new single “Wherever We Go” being touted as the next “Shine” or “Breakfast”, GO is certain to be a worldwide smash. Building upon a base of more than 5 million units sold, the album will be promoted throughout all summer festivals and newsboys will embark upon their largest tour in newsboys history in Spring 2007.«
  
  
• Alternative album comment from 'muze™, Inc.':
  »Unlike a lot of alternative Christian rock bands, Newsboys have no compunction about sounding slick, dancey, or commercial. Scruffy rocker types will consider this a shortcoming, but the opposite is true: Newsboys' strength is their fearless combination of synth textures and Euro-pop catchiness, with touches of club bounce and guitar-driven rock to keep it tasty. 2006's GO is the culmination of the band's 16 years in the game, with everything from the high-end production to frontman Peter Furler's excellent songwriting making the album a winner. CCM fans will want to s***** it up, but GO should be of interest to anyone interested in well-crafted pop-rock with crossover appeal.«
  
  
• Singer info: Paul, Phil & Peter sing lead on "Your Love Is Better Than Life"—at least that's what it sounds like with all these special effects here...;-)
  
  
• On a side note: Sadly it will be NO double disc (as announced since early 2005) but comes with the NB-like "normal" 10 tracks...

• album comment: »The Newsboys latest studio release is also its first worship project and already one of the most popular Newsboys records ever. It features moments of personal worship and corporate worship to lead listeners on a unique journey. Newsboys frontman Peter Furler teamed up once again with quirky artist/producer Steve Taylor for the effort. The idea behind the concept of Adoration: The Worship Album is that we are all constantly on a spiritual journey of worship. The scale of the highways and underpasses are huge, and when we stand next to them, we are so small. It's a rather artsy concept, but very significant and relevant to the project … signifying how huge God is and how small we are.«  (collected by D.D., from different sources)

• album comment: »God has been teaching Newsboys about thriving in adversity. They wrote all of their songs during this time and it is evident throughout the album as well as the album cover. The cover shows 2 girls, full of life, in a barren landscape; explaining how God takes care of us even in the toughest times. "Will you lift me up with tender care, will you wash me clean in the palm of your hand. Will you hold me close so I can thrive, when you touch me that's when I know I'm alive..." "Thrive" -Newsboys.«

• Peter's comment: »It was tough choosing the tracks for this CD because looking back, there were songs that we, as a band, wished we had put on the album. Most of the time we have had to choose the songs that were the most popular to our fans, hence the title: Shine...The Hits. Most of these songs are on our set lets, live every night. We had kids coming up to shows and saying, 'Hey, where can I buy all the songs you have played tonight on one CD?' It started making us think that it would be a great time to put all the songs on one CD and make a great collection.«
