The album spans between 1993 and 2009, from her second album The Way That I Am to her tenth, Shine. It also includes three of the four new songs from her previous hits compilation, Greatest Hits, and unlike that album it includes songs from Martina, Waking Up Laughing and Shine.

The set also features two new songs, "Surrender" and "Straight to the Bone", as well as "Being Myself" which was previously only available on the limited edition On Target EP released at Target stores in 2004. With the exception of these three songs, all of the songs on the album are top-twenty hits on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, including four number ones, ten top-fives and two top-tens. The album debuted at 47 on the Billboard 200 and 11 on the Country album charts in the US while making number 1 on the UK Country Compilations Chart.
