iTunes Review
Her second compilation from 2007 (the first one being Sara Evans: The Early Years), delivers four bonus songs in addition to the other ten chart toppers. The first two newbies are radio ready singles. "As If" is an undeniably catchy insta-hit with driving rhythms and upbeat melodies. "Love You With All My Heart" (co-written by her brother Matt) is a thoughtfully constructed number that leans on airwave friendly balladry and an effectively sentimental narrative. The other two bonus songs are deeply rooted in the kind of new traditional country that oozed from her gorgeous 1997 debut Three Chords And The Truth (from which no songs appear here, unfortunately). "Pray For You" muses on motherly love with gentle back porch picking and harmonies sweeter than southern tea, and the rich wooden tones of old school country instrumentation. Spunky fiddles spark up "Some Things Never Change," a steel guitar engagement that rocks and slides like TNT era Tanya Tucker with universal working woman lyrics akin to Dolly Parton's "9 to 5." And yes, all the smash hits sandwiched in between are sequenced to make for a truly satisfying listen.

Wonderful!
by Benjamin J.F.This is a fine concise collection of Sara's hits from the past decade. One of the standout tracks is her signature hit, "Suds in the Bucket" - a shamelessly twangy ditty that tells the story of a girl who runs away with her lover, breaks her parents hearts, and turns the entire town upside-down. "Cheatin,'" one of the most purely country songs on the album, puts a cleverly sassy spin on the cheatin' songs that country music is known for. "A Real Fine Place to Start" shows that when Sara does inject some pop flavor into her music, she knows how to do it right. It deserves all the stars I can throw at it, but it unfortunately doesn't quite show every side of her personality. There are no heartbreak songs or country party anthems included. Sara has recorded those types of songs before, but they weren't lucky enough to become hits. There are no songs from her outstanding debut album either (County radio wouldn't touch them). I give it four stars, because the songs included are fantastic, but we'll leave one off for the equally good songs that didn't make it onto this album.
HOW COUNTRY IS IT? I'll rate each song on a scale of 1-10.
1. As If - 6
2. Born to Fly - 10
3. I Could Not Ask for More - 7
4. Perfect - 8
5. Cheatin' - 10
6. Suds in the Bucket - 10
7. Saints and Angels - 5 (Don't get me wrong; I do like it, but it's still not very country)
8. You'll Always Be My Baby - 9
9. No Place That Far - 9
10. A Real Fine Place to Start - 7
11. Love You with All My Heart - 6
12. Pray for You - 10
13. Some Things Never Change - 8
It's SUPERB!!

Sara Evans Greatest Hits
by ecurb2935This is must have CD whether you are into country or not. Sara Evans has amazing vocals. Missing some great songs like Missing Missouri and Back Seat of a Greyhound Bus, but a great collection of songs non the less. "As If" is a hit and carries on her string of successful songs. "Suds in a Bucket" continues to be her best song whether live or here on the CD. I also strongly recommend seeing Sara Evans live...Her stage prescense is second to none.
