| When I first got this cd a couple months ago I doubted that I would like it that much but now I love it. This collection of hits from 1985-1995 starts out with "What About Love" which made it to #10. It is a well written song about telling someone what you are really feeling about them. "If Looks Could Kill" lets Heart show that they can get up in your face as well as they can sing about love, which made it to #54. "Never" is another one of those up in your face songs from the band that hit #4. The #1 hit "These Dreams" is one of the mellow, laid back songs on this album and is very well written. "Nothin' At All" is one of the first songs of Hearts that I heard and it is also one of my favorites that made it to #10. Another #1 hit from the group "Alone" is another one of the stand out tracks on this compilation. "Who Will You Run To" (#7) shows off Ann Wilson's vocal abilities. "There's The Girl" (#10) is a good song with great vocals and says that not all girls are what they seem to be. "Surrender To Me" which was a track with Ann Wilson and Robin Zander made it to #6 is a corny song if you ask me. "All I Wanna Do...." (#2) caused a little controversy when it first it was also originally written for Don Henley. "I Didn't Want To Need You" (#23) is a good song about not needing someone after it was a little too late. "Tall,Dark,Handsome Stranger" is a good rock track that is meant to be loud when played if not it is boring. "Stranded" (#13) is a good song about a break up and how everything isn't like a fairy tale. "You're The Voice" was another song that stirred up some controversy love and not war theme and "Back To Avalon" is a acoustic and contrasts some of their other works. "Black on Black II" is an awesome song that reminds me of "Barracuda" with it's guitar riffs. "Will You Be There" lets both of the sisters share mic in this song which made it to #30. "The Road Home" is a live track on the album. If you like Heart and want the hits without buying a mess load of cds this is for you.. |
An album that is worth every cent

| Without a doubt, Heart is my favorite female group of all time and this album has all of my favorite Heart songs. Ironically, just 3 or 4 months before this cd came out, I put in an order at a music store for an import cd called These Dreams - Heart's Greatest Hits that never came in. Just a couple of months after I cancelled my order from the music store, I looked at Amazon.com and found out that this album was coming out in late June. I bought this cd as soon as it came out and it's worth every penny. It has all my favorites such as "These Dreams" and "Alone." Even the songs that I wasn't familiar with such as "Back To Avalon" and "I Didn't Want To Need You" are great. If you're a fan of Heart's music after they made their major comeback in the mid 80's, this album is for you. Even if you don't know any of Heart's songs, I still recommend getting it to add to your collection. Ann & Nancy Wilson have two of the best singing voices ever combined with some good musicians that make this album one of the best 'greatest hits' albums of all time. |
A Very Complete Compilation of Hits

| I bought this CD recently,and was not disappointed. I've been a fan of Heart since their first album in 1976. This CD thoroughly covers all their hits from the Capitol Records days from 85 through 95. All the melodic rockers as well as their ballads are on this album. The only small hit missing is "Want You So Bad" from the "Bad Animals" album. I was very pleased to see "There's The Girl" and "If Looks Could Kill" on this CD,since these 2 songs get very little airplay on the radio anymore. This is a very good buy,seeing there are 18 songs on a single CD. |
delicious pop metal

| i was 14 when Heart released back in 1985 their self-titled album worldwide. All of a sudden i knew they were bringing out in me the rocker side as much as Madonna did with pop and Whitney Houston did with R'n'B. I loved everything about the Wilson sisters: their looks - says who metal bands are formed of bad big smelly guys only??? - and their attitude towards music. I remember MTV palying heavily NEVER and THESE DREAMS, pumping on NEVER and raising controversy with ALL I WANNA DO IS MAKE LOVE TO YOU. Well, this collection proves to be more than that, since not only all of the singles issued by EMI are included here, you do have also some nuggets such as SURRENDER TO ME (which hit the top 10 US back in 1989) from the TEQUILA SUNRISE soundtrack - a powerful duet by Ann and Cheap Trick's Robin Zander -, the album cut TALL, DARK, HANDSOME STRANGER (that i would have personally left out in favour of the commercially available singles I WANT YOU SO BAD and THE WOMAN IN ME), the hard-to-find radio version of YOU'RE THE VOICE (previously available only in a live version on the ROCK THE HOUSE LIVE! album) and to bring everything to full circle, an awesome acoustic version of THE ROAD HOME. Heart knows how to rock you off, Ann and Nancy are two modern mermaids that take you by the hand and bring you to their underwater world, where you can be gently lulled by the sweetest of ballads (STRANDED) or swept by the hardest-driven guitar riff (BLACK ON BLACK II)... I'm 30 now, halfa life more, but all those songs are still masterpieces to me. If you're a late Heart fan as i am you'll love this collection, if you've never heard about them - which i doubt, just go ask yr older brother or younger uncle - this is a good buy to get you started loving their stuff...it's a must buy! |
Far superior than the previous Capitol greatest hits

| These Dreams, Heart's previous Capitol Records'greatest hits was problematic. Their catalog is divided over two labels. Capitol had the rights to Dreamboat Annie, Magazine, and everything from the 1985 self-titled album on up. Sony owns everything else. So in trying to give a complete 22 year overview they had to plug the holes: alternate versions of Barracuda, Dog & Butterfly, and Straight On and no Even It Up, or Tell It Like It is. These Dreams also missed the later hit single There's The Girl from Bad Animals. Sony resolved the early years up to 1983 with their greatest hits in 1998. Which brings us to this....Covering the ten years when they joined Capitol Records in 1985 up to 1995's The Road Home, this collection delivers all the 13 charting singles (including There's The Girl), a rare promo single You're The Voice (studio) (the live verion was on Rock The House) and the Tequila Sunrise soundtrack song Surrender To Me, which is Ann Wilson's solo hit with Robin Zander. The Cd boasts 24-bit sound, and nice liner notes, though it's devoid of pictures. Still much improved over the last Capitol Collection. |
