On April 2, 2002, Universal released Dance Collection, a remix album by Tsai. [1] The album was made available in two versions: a standard edition and a limited edition, with the latter offered in two different packaging colors, each limited to 10,000 copies. [2] Additionally, Universal released a single from the album, "Show Your Love / Fall in Love with a Street / You Gotta Know". [13]
Tencent Entertainment 's Shu Wa commented: "This electronic remix compilation album is essentially a reworking of some of Jolin Tsai's well-known tracks from her time with Universal. The remixes are a way to satisfy fans' expectations following a two-year hiatus due to contract disputes, but the approach feels like a mere rehash. Unfortunately, the popularity of Tsai's up-tempo tracks from her Universal period was not as high as those from her later years with Sony and Gold Typhoon, and there are fewer of them. As a result, in addition to several prominent up-tempo singles, the album also features remixes of slower, more sentimental ballads awkwardly transformed into dance tracks." [1]
