Английская Википедия:Aaron Carter (album)
Шаблон:Infobox album Шаблон:Album ratings Aaron Carter is the debut studio album by American pop singer Aaron Carter, brother of Backstreet Boys member Nick Carter. It was originally released in December 1997 in Europe and re-released the next year with a new song and a remix, as well as being released in the United States in the summer of 1998.
The album reached the top 10 in some European countries and reached number 12 in the United Kingdom. While it did not chart on the US Billboard 200, it did manage to reach number 17 on the US Top Heatseekers chart, and sold more than 100,000 copies in the United States.[1]
Three singles were released from the album; "Crush on You", a cover of the Jets' 1985 song, "Crazy Little Party Girl", and "I'm Gonna Miss You Forever". Other songs were released as limited edition singles in some regions. "Crush on You" and "Crazy Little Party Girl" went top 10 and 20 respectively in Australia, while both went top 10 in the UK. All three singles went top 20 in Germany and Sweden, with "I'm Gonna Miss You Forever" peaking at number 24 on the UK Singles Chart.
"Surfin' USA", a cover of the 1963 song by the Beach Boys, was later included on the re-release edition of the album, and released separately as an EP, and went top 20 in the UK and Germany.
The album sold more than one million copies worldwide.[2]
