Cher's Greatest Hits 1965-1992, 30 Jun 2005
-Cher's Greatest Hits 1965-1992 (1992)-This is an excellent hits collection of Cher's hits from 1965 to 1992. Most of the hits are included, though a few are missed. Love Hurts is missing, which could have easily been given a place on this compilation, as well as more under-rated hits like You Wouldn't Know Love and Could've Been You. Despite this, the collection is still worth 5-stars. Below is a review of all the tracks from this album, their release dates and the chart information:- 'Oh No Not My Baby' was a new song at the time of this albums release. It was released on 14th November 1992 and reached No.33 in the UK. It spent 4 weeks on the Top 75. 'Whenever You're Near' was a new song at the time of this albums release.

'Cher's Greatest Hits 1965-1992' is released on 21st November 1992 and goes straight to No.1 in the UK!! It spends 33 weeks on the UK Albums Chart. Overall, this album is excellent. It includes so many excellent hits, and you can sing along to all of them! Cher is the best!
