Who Cares a Lot? The Greatest Videos

1

'Who Cares a Lot? The Greatest Videos' is a greatest hits retrospective compilation video album by American rock band Faith No More. It was released on video home system following the band's April 1998 breakup and is a companion to the greatest hits album ''Who Cares a Lot? The Greatest Hits. '' The VHS was originally scheduled for release on February 9, 1999, but was delayed to February 23, 1999. It was issued by Slash Records and London Records via Polygram Video in Britain and Europe, and Slash Records and Reprise Records via Warner Reprise Video in North America. In 2006, Rhino Entertainment re-released the video on DVD, packaged as a double disc with You Fat Bastards: Live at the Brixton Academy under the title Double Feature: Live at the Brixton Academy, London (You Fat Bastards) / Who Cares a Lot? The Greatest Videos. The release contains nearly all of the band's music videos, with the exception of ones for "Ricochet," "Another Body Murdered," and an alternate video for "From Out of Nowhere". The first half of the video is taken directly from Faith No More's 1993 VHS release, Video Croissant (from "Midlife Crisis" to "Easy"), which covered footage from the band's first three Slash Records releases, Introduce Yourself, The Real Thing, and Angel Dust. The second half includes videos from the band's (at the time) final two albums, King for a Day... Fool for a Lifetime and Album of the Year. It also includes a music video for "I Started a Joke," which was produced to promote the Who Cares a Lot? releases in 1998, and a live video of "This Guy's in Love with You," which was performed by the band on their last tour.

Critical reception

Billboard's Catherine Applefeld Olson describes the release as a collection of "some of the band's most attention-grabbing, groundbreaking clips." She also praises the inclusion of miscellaneous content that "devotees of the band will savor […] like scraps of gold." Denise Sullivan of AllMusic mainly deplores the track listing order which puts the "worst" music videos "first". However she still notes some "bright spots" on the collection, such as the "uncharacteristically high-budget clip for 'A Small Victory.'"
