Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Not many artists can boast a Best Of album by their 21st birthday, but then not everybody logs a Lolita-ish hit at age 13, as the precocious Leann Rimes did with the retro "Blue" in 1996. In many ways, that auspicious debut was her finest hour, full of hypnotic, yodel-laced magic and savant-like promise. Since then, she's recorded a fair amount of bankable pop ("One Way Ticket", "Can't Fight the Moonlight") and a seemingly bottomless well of tripe ("You Light Up My Life", "Written in the Stars" with Elton John). It all sits back-to-back on this collection of familiar tunes, braced with new audio recordings: "This Love" and "Last Thing on My Mind". Alas, of the new songs, they point up the weakness of much of Rimes' career; her connect-the-dots emotionality. Best advice: put the player on "repeat" and enjoy the royal "Blue" treat that got this career rolling, before the aerobicised videos and the embarrassing lawsuit. --Alanna Nash

Format:Audio CD
This is just an amazing album, there are so many great tracks aswell as the duets with Ronan Keating and Elton John which are both great songs. Leann has acheived so much for a girl her age and it all shows in the album, I would say the best tracks are Life goes on, cant fight the moonlight, how do I live, and written in the stars (duet with Elton John) She also sings a brilliant version of Patsy Clines Crazy. I would say this is a must have for anyones CD collection!

We all know leann rimes for big hits such as 'how do i live' and 'cant find the moonlight' but apart from that her chart sucsess in the u.k has been quite minimal and when u listen to this album you will wonder why. we offen forget that this young lady is only 21 and has released all these records from the age of 15 aswel as having 3 billboard U.S #1 and 9 U.S #1's in the country chart she also outsells britney spears in the u.s and apart from artists such as Mariah Carey and Celine dion she pretty much outsells most female artists in the u.s aswel so what im basically saying is if you want a c.d you can listen to from start to finish by an artist with amazing talent who is totally under rated then please by this c.d and prepare to be amazed..

I've always been a fan of LeAnn Rimes, and when I bought this album, it was everything I expected it to be! All her best hits are all contained on here, including Blue, Can't Fight The Moonlight, How Do I Live?, Commitment & her newest single with Ronan Keating, 'Last Ting On My Mind'. Well worth the money!

Some reasonable material, but...
Some say that LeAnn's finest hour was "Blue". I'd disagree with that however. While "Blue" was a phenomenal debut album, LeAnn's finest hour was without doubt the "Sitting On Top... Read more
