If you are a fan of Sarah McLachlan, then you will definitely enjoy this CD. While not every song is fantastic, there are several excellent songs here, and many other very good ones. Of course, CDs of this type usually include some "experimental" additions from the artist, which often aren't that good, or, at least, aren't what you expect. This CD is no exception to that rule (I particularly do not care for her version of Unchained Melody), but is still worth the investment.
This is the best version of "River" and is different than the one on Wintersong. The song alone is worth buying the cd. "Blackbird" and "Time After Time" are also great.
My favorite by far on this album is "Pills" with the Perishers. This cd really magnifies her talent by spreading that richness and blending it so flawlessly with such a wide spectrum of other great artist.
This is by far my favorite of all the Sarah cd's and I own every last one of them. As a huge Sarah McLachlan fan I was a little personally insulted by one of the reviews that referred to some of these songs as "mediocre at best." What a crock.
It's so rich and beautiful. Yes that's right, even the singles.
Sarah has such an amazing voice. She manages to showcase the other artists' talent without compromising her unique sound and style.
What a beautifully wound harmony they create together in a bitter, sad, dark kind of way.
This "best of" collection flows. More "A" material than the album title suggests. A great representation of Ms. McLachlan's talents and diversity.
I love Sarah but am disappointed overall with this CD. It has nothing to do with the person I purchased it from. It came quickly and in good condition. Guess it's just another way for an artist to find a way to make money with little creative movement.
