Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Despite the photographic presence of an acoustic guitar (the rock & roll equivalent of a rubber bullet), the enviably lovely hair and the unassuming knitwear, Sheryl Crow is staring back at us from the cover of The Very Best Of with her chin resting on a fist clenched tightly with white-knuckled defiance. This is, after all, the girl whose wishful thinking led her to sing "All I wanna do is have some fun" while privately preferring to either curl up in bed for a very long time or roll over and die (she's recently come out of the closet with regards to her longstanding battles with depression).

Yes, she's earned herself an armful of Grammys and has been damned with faint praise, but if you go easy on the relatively troublesome second-half of Sheryl Crow's 10-year solo career (the poppy optimism of songs like "C'mon C'mon" and "Soak Up the Sun" seems strained), then this decade-acknowledging resumé serves as a reminder of her narrative talents for summarising the pitfalls of burdensome workloads ("Everyday Is a Winding Road") and problematic squeezes ("My Favourite Mistake") within an MTV-friendly pop framework. Questionably, such gems as the James Bond theme "Tomorrow Never Dies" and the US abortion issue commentary of "Hard to Make a Stand" (both sizeable UK hits) have been omitted to make room for three new tracks, two of which, the evangelical "Light in Your Eyes" and the post-9/11 "Let's Get Free" betray the influences of George Harrison and the Beatles. --Kevin Maidment

5.0 out of 5 stars "These are the days when anything goes...",, 25 Jul 2005
By Ahmed (Canada) - See all my reviews
...and that couldn't be any clearer! A famous line from her hit, "Everyday is a winding road", perhaps it's her motto judging by the way she's experimented with new sounds over the last decade. But at the end of the day, she's still Sheryl Crow! From her new fads, her unique videos, irresistibly catchy songs, numerous Grammy Awards, to the millions of sales-there's no doubting that Sheryl Crow is a talented artist! This album features all her greatest hits, some highlights are:

All I Wanna Do- The "Record of The Year" at the Grammys, Sheryl's breath through song that put her on the map and helped her album sell millions worldwide. No matter where you are, it's hard to hum the chorus of this huge hit that sold a million copies and reached the top 5 US chart in a matter of weeks!

Soak up the Sun- the 2002 hit that reawakened her success, she rose up the charts once again, after some years of silence. This sunny, cheerful hit is one of her best yet.

My Favourite Mistake- great alternative rock song!

First Cut Is The Deepest- Sheryl's remake of this hit is even better than the original. No wonder why it's still in the US' top 20 "adult contemporary" playlists!

Everyday Is A Winding Road- This 1996 song that was featured in 2000's Erin Brokovich is my all-time favourite Sheryl Crow single. From the loud rock music to one of the best and catchiest choruses ever, this song is one of the album's highlights.

Difficult Kind- powerful duet sung with soft songstress Sarah McLachlan.

Picture- the hit duet sung with Kidrock that was one of only three songs to be certified Gold that year!

Steve McQueen- Yet another Grammy-winning hotshot single with an exceptional video!

In short, from the Lillith fairs, the changing styles of music, and the powerful voice to the loud beats and classic aura about her, she has more than proven herself. This album is a must-have!

4.0 out of 5 stars 10 years of the Crow-- so many excellent songs!!!, 18 Oct 2003
By A Customer
Sheryl Crow is indeed unique, she sings, she writes and she produces all her own songs, how many artists can say that?
This album charts 10 years of excellent music, 17 tracks covering every emotion you could ever imagine-
*ULTIMATE HAPPINESS- soak up the sun, all i wanna do.
*ANGER- if it makes you happy.
*SADNESS- home. hurt- the first cut is the deepest.
*UPBEAT- winding road, a change
*LOSS- my favourite mistake
There are also 3 new songs on this album, light in your eyes, a nod to george harrison, picture, a song that dominated the american charts for 6 months, lets get free, sheryls protest song against the war in iraq. Only the latter falls below the standard of the rest. light in your eyes is worthy of a grammy!

These are all the hits, plus some gems that are less well known such as leaving las vegas, there goes the neighbourhood and my favourite mistake. And yes there are some songs that maybe should have been included, but an album is only 80 mins long, if you wanted the definitive greatest hits you would need 3 or 4 albums

this is an all round, excellent, amazing collection of songs, and 20 million people have bought sheryl's songs over the last 10 years, so they cant be wrong! She has won 9 grammy awards, a brit award and numerous other awards from all over the world, so the world knowS how good she is! let the crow into your life, you wont be disappointed!!!

go get it!
