"Thank you" to płyta zawierająca ulubione kawałki wykonawców, którzy wywarli największy wpływ na poszczególnych członków Duran Duran. Wielu więc zapewnie zadziwi fakt, że na płycie nie znalazł się ani jeden utwór Davida Bowie (dodany jako bonus...), czy Roxy Music. Zaskakuje też w tym zestawieniu "Drive by", utwór autorstwa Duran Duran, który jest jakby kontynuacją "The chauffeur".
Płyta ta jest bliska sercu wielu polskich fanów, gdyż to właśnie z okazji jej promocji po raz pierwszy (i jedyny) do Polski przylecieli Simon Le Bon oraz Nick Rhodes (9-11 maja 1995).

Włoskie wydanie płyty na wynilu (made in Italy widniejący na płycie), jednak numer katalogowy wskazuje, że płyta ukazała się również w Wielkiej Brytanii. Płyta, a raczej album wydany w podwójnej okładce (jak Arena, czy Big Thing), po rozłożeniu której umieszczone jest zdjęcie Duran Duran na tle flagi amerykańskiej. W jednej z kieszeni znajduje się plakat składający się z ilustracji do poszczególnych utworów - identyczna grafika jak na książeczce do CD. Sama płyta jest w białej kopercie, brak jest jakichkolwiek opisów do zamieszczonych utworów, jak i ich czasów, dlatego też te podane powyżej pochodzą z wersji CD.
