What a great way to introduce new listeners to Amy's music! I've been a fan for many years. Come Be With Me and The Water are beautiful. I do, however, disagree with the reviewer who thinks Amy is using sex to sell her album. It's been a long time since baring one's shoulders was considered taboo. I think it's a beautiful photo of a beautiful woman modestly posed in a modest dress.

Amy's never sounded better than she does in her two new songs. She is my favorite of all time and seems to be back on track after a somewhat marginal Simple Things. Keep up the good word I say.

I love this album. I don't think that I've actually stopped listening to it yet. The new tracks on the album are awesome. I just awesome so have all of the songs by a single great artist all on the same cd. Ultimate convenience for me because now I dont have to rotate Amy Grant cds, because all the songs I love are on this Greatest Hits album!!! I LOVE AMY GRANT!!! LOL

Yes, in the tradition of "Ultimate Kylie," this collection leaves no stone unturned! With the addition of new and remixed tracks, this collage should be entitled, "Past Reflections & Future Memories." This bundle is a strong mix of her most popular chart-toppers as well as time-honored CCM classics. Absoluletely beautiful in its arrangement and selection from the 18 years highlighted here, it shows Amy's dynamic voice and honest passion on everything she sings!

Although originally featured in "Mr. Wrong," the inclusion of Amy's cover of 10cc's trademark hit "The Things We Do For Love" is a welcome surprise!!
Another welcome surprise is her 1986 Billboard #1 duet with Peter Cetera--an absolute necessity for any Amy fan!

Highlights include "Lead Me On," "Simple Things" and "I Will Remember You"

I loved this CD. God gave her a beautiful voice which even improves over the years. It's amazing how she can sing such a variety of songs and sound so beautiful. "The Water" is my favorite because it is a different style (2004) and sings about asking Jesus to help her while feeling on the edge. I also love her Legacy CD especially her own song "What you already own" which again admits her weakness as a human. She has gotten bad reviews from some Christians because of her personal life and divorce. No one is perfect. I think she is a role model for Christians because all of her lyrics are a result of high Christitian thinking from a human who is less than perfect. Isn't that how we should all pray.

Amy Grant Greatest Hits 1986-2004 is a two CD set that is one hour, thirty-seven minutes, and forty-seven seconds and was released on October 12, 2004. Amy Grant Greatest Hits 1986-2004 reached #48 on the U.S. Billboard 200 Album, #3 on the U.S. Billboard Top Christian Album, and #48 on the U.S. Billboard Top Internet Albums. Though this is my only Amy Grant CD I did like the music perform by her. Seven of the songs on the CD reached #1 status. Most of her songs reached chart status in the Adult Contemporary category. A few of the songs I had heard before: The Next Time I Fall in Love, Baby, Baby, and Every Heartbeat. Mainly from watching her videos on MTV and VH1; when they used to air videos. If you want to get introduced to Amy Grant, then this CD is for you. Amy Grant Greatest Hits 1986-2004 gets an AAA+++.

Oh my God! I read another review and people says "she use sex ..." Oh my God! I'm French and i live in France... and i'm so surprise by that. She's not a none. She's is a singer, a great singer and we listen her songs not her private life or i don't know.
Now we speak about her greatest hits album. It's a good album and a good resume about a carrier.
Please open your mind. We can be Catholic and love "sex"... :) In France many people like Amy for her songs and we don't care about her life. Great album, great songs and great singer...
Peace be with you
