Some seriously classic Reba on this CD - all of those tunes you're just never going to get out of your head!
Tracks on this CD are: 1. Does He Love You - stunning duet with Linda Davis 2. You Lie - One of my least favourite songs, and it's very difficult to sing along to!! Shows Reba's amazing voice and lungs, though! 3. Fancy - Listen to the words on this "song with a story" 4. For My Broken Heart - a very emotional song for Reba, as this song is dedicated to members of her band, who died in an airplane accident - the introduction particularly sends chills down my back 5. Love Will Find Its Way To You - Not such a popular track with me! 6. They Asked About You - classic Reba 7. Is There Life Out There - see track 9 8. Rumor Has It - another absolute classic Reba track 9. Walk On - this and "Is There Life Out There" inspired many women to get up and make something of themselves, and you can see why - they really do make you want to get up and DO something! 10. Greatest Man I Never Knew - a song about her father - you can't help but well up at this one - makes me want to call my family!
Even if you haven't heard some of the songs, you'll be humming them once you've played this CD a couple of times!

Producers: Tony Brown, Jimmy Bowen, Reba McEntire. "Does He Love You" won the 1994 Grammy Award for "Country Vocal Collaboration." Reba McEntire, the long-time queen of country music, comes out swinging on her second greatest hits compilation. From the opening salvos of the diva battle to end all battles (the award-winning duet "Does He Love You"), McEntire leaves no vocal stone unturned. She and Linda Davis trade off the most passionate country vocals heard this year. With the emotion level already rising to unimaginable heights, McEntire surprises by rocketing to the vocal heavens with the sweet but deadly "You Lie." She only lets the grip ease momentarily with the light-hearted "Fancy." Enjoy that breath, because it's suddenly taken away by the heart-wrenching "For My Broken Heart," the tribute to her bandmembers killed in a plane crash. Able to extend one note into thousands, McEntire also has a way with a lyric. She often writes story-songs dealing with common-folk issues like poverty ("Fancy"). "Is There Life Out There," her be-all-that-you-can-be anthem, hit such a chord that the song has since been turned into a movie. Heartbreak is a staple Reba theme ("They Asked About You"), as are inspirational motifs ("The Greatest Man I Ever Knew"). McEntire knows how to find the hits, and once they glide out of those golden vocal chords, she has assured their place on any greatest hits compilation.
Album Reviews
