Simply The Best is a concise yet powerful compilation that showcases some of the most memorable tracks from Swedish hard rock giants Europe. Released in 1999 through Epic Records, the album gathers many of the band’s defining songs from the 1980s, highlighting their signature blend of melodic hard rock, arena-ready choruses, and polished production. From the instantly recognizable anthem “The Final Countdown” to emotional power ballads like “Carrie” and energetic rock staples such as “Rock The Night,” the collection captures the band at the height of their commercial success and creative peak. Joey Tempest’s soaring vocals, John Norum’s melodic guitar work, and the band’s strong sense of melody helped Europe become one of the most successful European rock acts of their era. The compilation balances radio-friendly hits with deeper fan favorites, offering both longtime listeners and newcomers an accessible overview of the band’s classic period. Simply The Best remains an enjoyable celebration of melodic hard rock and the enduring sound of 1980s arena rock.
