Amy grant simple things


Greatest Hits is a compilation album by contemporary Christian music-pop singer Amy Grant, released on October 2, 2007 (see 2007 in music). It was released by EMI CMG, Grant's new record label, to mark the start of her contract with them. It does not contain new songs, but the record label did remaster all of her songs. It is her latest career-spanning collection (following the 1986 compilation The Collection), and thus overlaps several tracks with both The Collection and Greatest Hits 1986–2004. As with The Collection, the songs are arranged in reverse chronological order.

Contents

There is a special edition of the album that contains a bonus DVD as well.

Notably missing from the collection are several of Grant's hits, including the early CCM classic "All I Ever Have to Be", "Everywhere I Go", "Wise Up", "The Next Time I Fall" (a duet with Peter Cetera), and her cover version of Joni Mitchell's "Big Yellow Taxi".
