Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 & 2 (2007)
Buying individual “albums” of hers is a waste of money.
Everything you need is here, not that there aren’t other nice/pleasant songs out there, but the appeal is so similar that it’s just not worth it.
Lots of nice, pleasant melodies sung by a really, really good and impressive voice. And the fact that she was pretty gorgeous doesn’t hurt the enjoyment.
So basically just get it started, and don’t worry about being too distracted. You’ll get a nice, pleasant feeling that won’t interfere with anything important you actually have to do. Because there’s nothing “important” here.
Once in a while a song sticks out and is a bit more enjoyable than usual, and there’s nothing embarrassing here, which is nice.
Then again, I’m so hopelessly out of date that this should be taken mainly as nostalgia.
(“Long, Long Time”, “You’re No Good”, “Hurt So Bad”)
