5.0 out of 5 stars Straight Up! Is Right..., June 5, 2007
If you don't have one or the other of her greatest hits releases, get this one. Not only are there more songs and less filler, but the sound quality is better. It looks like in the seven years between greatest hits packages, some sonic wizardry has happened.

Paula has just never sounder better. I figure this release is to capitalize on her American Idol role, and smart of her to do so, but there is more here for the dollar as well. SO sell your old one and give this version a spin. I think if you have the least interest in her, you and your toes will be happy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Supreme ear candy, May 8, 2007
By kevin m antonio (rumford, ri United States) - See all my reviews
Ok, ok, this is almost a duplicate from her 2000 best of, right down to the cover photos... except this time the picture that was on the front is now on back and vice versa...
This time around we get 18 songs, no "megamixes" (filler, like last time). The songs added on this go 'round are "Will You Marry Me" (why yes, Paula, I will), "One or the Other", and "Ain't never Gonna Give You Up".
Right from the get go, these songs leap out of the speakers and are just in your face. The production is busy, lots of things to pick out and latch onto with each listen, but the important thing is you can dance to it.
And then there's Paula her self... Ah. The greatest voice in the world? No, but perfect for these songs. What she lacks in technique, she makes up for in spunk, very infectious.
These songs are as catchy as a cold. Even if you can't stand her, I bet you know at least a dozen of these sonic bon-bons.
She is Paula! She will not be denied!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally, the Real Hits Package, May 9, 2007
By Eric Ashley (Elkhart, IN United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is the all inclusive Greatest Hits package that Paula fans have been waiting for! This one improves on the 2000 release by leaps and bounds. Gone are the awful "R&B Remix" of "My Love Is For Real" and the time wasting "Megamix Medley"... and in its place are "Will You Marry Me?" (a top-20 hit), "One or the Other", "Ain't Never Gonna Give You Up" (the extremely catchy but largely ignored final single of Abdul's career), and "It's All About Feeling Good" (which should have also been a radio hit). This collection also retains the popular "radio remixes" of her other hits like "Opposites Attract" and "Crazy Cool", which are represented in different versions on the original album releases. Hopefully, this will capitalize on her success on "American Idol" and become another best seller for her.
