"I love Sheryl Crow's music and wanted the CD to be a five-star album, but it simply isn't. While the liner notes obsessively detail Crow's chart successes and Grammy wins, the CD's tracks do not, making for a slightly uneven collection.



Yes, the biggest hits ("Strong Enough," "All I Wanna Do," "If It Makes You Happy") are here, and so are some small ones ("Leaving Las Vegas" and "Home"), but bona fide Top 40 hits like "Can't Cry Anymore" and the TERRIFIC "Anything But Down" are completely ignored. And the Grammy-nominated non-album track "I'm Gonna Be A Wheel Someday" is left off, in favor of non-hit material like "The Difficult Kind."



Both the new songs are good (with "The First Cut Is The Deepest" being the catchiest of the two), and show Crow back on track after her less-than-stellar "C'Mon C'Mon" album. And while it is great to have new songs on any "best of" CD, does this collection really need TWO versions of "The First Cut Is the Deepest"? The spot taken up by the second version (which is not very different from the initial version) would have been better spent including one of the ignored hits or "Riverwide," which is, hands down, one of Crow's best recordings.



The DVD portion of this two-disc set is pretty impressive. The videos for "Anything But Down" and "Run Baby Run" are great to see, especially since the songs were left off the CD proper. The best video on the disc is for the song "Home," which was one I had not seen before--and it is absolutely stunning!"
Good collection

"Sheryl Crow has always been one of my favorite artists, with her intense and deep lyrics, and great voice. I always enjoyed her music, it was so original and just different from everything out there, to me at least. So it comes to no surprise that there is a collection of greatest hits for such a prolific artist and entertainer. They have compiled a pretty good collection of her work. My only complaint is that there's a few missing tracks, obviously not enough room, but "Anything But Down", "Sweet Child of Mine" and the James Bond theme are noticably missing. "There Goes The Neighborhood" is a nice song, but it seems like an odd choice as it was not a big hit. Either way, there is some great stuff here. I enjoy the ballads "Home", "The Difficult Kind", "I Shall Believe", "Strong Enough" and more. Everyone knows the big hits "Soak Up The Sun", "Everyday Is A Winding Road", "My Favorite Mistake", "If It Makes You Happy", "All I Wanna Do", and so on. The new tracks are good, her version of "The First Cut Is The Deepest" is a great rendition. I love the other new song "Light In Your Eyes", which has a great melody and vocals from Crow. The Deluxe Edition also comes with a DVD of 13 of her videos, so a must have for all fans. Overall you can't go wrong with this collection."
