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 Favorite Mistake") within an MTV-friendly pop framework. --Kevin Maidment

Customer Rating:      Summary: The name says it all Comment: This is the best collection of Sheryl Crow tracks that I can imagine. It has all of her major hits, including my personal favorite "My Favorite Mistake." Sheryl, as always, sounds fantastic. If you want a pretty good collection of songs without having to buy every single individual album, this is a great purchase. The only thing I don't like is the cover, which isn't the best picture of Sheryl I've ever seen. It looks seventies-tastic, and like she's been posed by Deb, the girl from Napoleon Dynamite.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Memory Check, HELLO !!! Comment: Please buy this and all of her stuff so she can afford wipe her butt with more than one piece of toilet paper...!!!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Everything I hoped for and more.... Comment: In my opinion Sheryl Crow is underrated as a singer/songwriter. She has a way of communicating through song that she really gets the life experiences of an average 40 something contemporary woman. It is optomistic, realistic, strong, honest, and vulnerable. One of the Very Best "best ofs" I have purchased.
Customer Rating:      Summary: excellent Comment: Product arrived quickly, was in excellent condition. I am listening to Chery Crow now and enjoyng every minute of it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Wonderful CD Comment: Of all the music genre, country music is my least favorite yet it took the talented Sheryl Crow to convince me otherwise. It's modern yet appeals to a wide cross-section of age group.
