Les Greatest Hits is Army of Lovers fifth album. It's a compilation of the previous albums and three new songs: Give My Life, Venus And Mars and Requiem. Two versions of the album were brought out: a European edition (1995) and a UK edition (1996). They contain the same songs, except for one: on the UK edition Stand up for myself was replaced by a new song, King Midas, which also served as a last single of the group in the summer of 1996. King Midas was also available in the US Version of the Album which was released shortly after "Give my life" smashed US Dance Charts. This album also announced the return of La Camilla to the band (as a replacement of Michaela Dornonville de la Cour, who was kicked out).

This Compilation album returned Army of Lovers back in the charts and has sold over 4,1 million Copies by the end of the year 2009. It also became Army of Lovers highest selling album in the States (With sales over 1 million.)

~wikipedia
Army of Lovers are a Swedish dance music group formed in 1987.

The name of the band alludes to a documentary Armee der Liebenden oder Revolte der Perversen about the German gay rights activist Rosa von Praunheim, the title of which in turn alludes to the Theban Band. The founding members, who had all worked together in a band called Barbie, were Alexander Bard, Jean-Pierre Barda and Camilla Henemark (aka La Camilla).

Army of Lovers had many Top 10 hits on the Eurochart, the biggest being "Crucified", which was one of the biggest selling European singles of 1991, and stayed at #1 on the Eurochart for eight consecutive weeks. Their total album sales were seven million copies worldwide.

While Alexander Bard was the "brain" behind the band, Jean-Pierre Barda was the lead vocalist on hits such as "Crucified" and "Israelism". Bard and Barda were the only two band members who were present throughout all of the band's various line-ups. When La Camilla left the band in 1991, she was replaced by Michaela Dornonville de la Cour. In 1993, Dominika Peczynski joined, making the band a four-piece. In 1995, Dornoville de la Cour left and Henemark returned.

Although both "Obsession" and "Sexual Revolution" reached the top spot of the Eurocharts, their presence in the US and the UK was limited to club chart successes (though "Crucified" reached the Top 40 in the UK Singles Chart in February 1992). They released five studio albums, made over twenty music videos, and became successful across Eastern Europe before Bard disbanded the group to concentrate on his new group Vacuum in 1996. The band reformed briefly in 2001.

They also joined forces again in 2007 for two shows, one at G-A-Y in London and one in Moscow. Bard, Peczyniski and Barda were present, but Henemark was replaced by an inflatable doll.

During their time together, Army Of Lovers became famous for their outlandish visual appearance (many of their costumes were created by Camilla Thulin), and their high camp music videos directed by Fredrik Boklund (some of which were banned by MTV).

Two members of Army Of Lovers (La Camilla and Dominika) reunited in July 2011 with the release of the new music single called Limelight feat Miss Inga.
