The Very Best of Sheryl Crow by
Sheryl Crow
The Name Says It All
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 (shes recently come out of the
closet with regards to her longstanding battles with depression).
Yes, shes 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 Crows 10-year solo career (the poppy optimism of songs like
Cmon Cmon 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
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 Mis take.
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 dont like is the cover, which isnt the best picture
of Sheryl Ive ever seen. It looks seventies-tastic, and like shes been posed
by Deb, the girl from Napoleon Dynamite.
