Okay so Hilary at the beginning for me was not the best singer, but as soon as she made her album Dignity, I began to like her... but I'm going to breakdown the review by each song:
1.) Reach Out- 9/10
This is a very sexy song, especially for Hilary Duff. I like how she broke out from her Disney influenced style and became a lot more glamorous. I just have to say that she really should have released this song in a new album, NOT a "best of" album bc it really does not match the rest of her rate G songs. Overall, this is a new, sexy, fun, and stylish song by Hilary! I hope her next album has the same style.
2.) Holiday- 7/10
I think this song is OKAY, nothing to impressive, especially since a lot of her other songs are a lot better. If this was released in an album that was complete with new songs that would make sense, BUT I don't believe this is "best of" material, it's just a mediocre song!
3.) Stranger- 9.5/10
I love this song, this is one of the reasons why I like Hilary's songs now. It has a belly dance theme to it, with a dash of spice. The music video also suits it! I think this deserves a spot in her best songs.
4.) With Love- 9.5/10
I really like this song, the beat, her new style and look, just amazing. I think this was Hilary's start with her new look and music, which I like!
5.) Play With Fire- 9.0/10
At first I was like this song is really lame, but for some reason after awhile you get really hooked to the song! I think it's a fun and bubbly song.
6.) Wake Up- 8.0/10
It's a good song, but I feel like the song could be a lot better, especially since Hilary has good vocals! It's not amazing, but good.
7.) Fly- 6.0/10
I really dislike this song. It's not like it's terrible, but just okay. There's something about it that makes me have goosebumps when I listen to it!
8.) Come Clean (remix)- 8.5/10
OKAY first off the UNREMIXED song deserves a 10/10 because it's simply clean, fresh, and amazing, BUT the remixed version seriously ruins the mood. Nevertheless, most of the song is still amazing... darn you remix!
9.) So Yesterday- 9/10
I think this song is a lucky-to-go song, but stil is a pretty good song to listen to whenever. It's one of her better older songs.
10.) Why Not- 8/10
It's a good song for awhile.... but after awhile it really gets annoying to listen to. It's just a song you listen to once in awhile and enjoy.
11.) Reach Out (remix)- 9.5/10
This remix actually was done very well! it's an awesome remix to dance to at parties, clubs, etc! Who ever remixed it did a good job!
12.) Holiday (remix)- 7/10
It's honestly the same to me as the normal version. A little bit more rhythm, but nothing more special than the other.
-----Overall, it's kind of a mix of good and okay songs from Hilary, I think she really needs to release more albums before actually releasing a "best of" album. Nonetheless, I really love her new music and look!---"

"This CD is just an attempt for the record company to make some more money.
If you are a H. Duff fan then you own all of these songs, so don't make the record company richer. Plus, why isn't Jericho on here, that is one of her best songs!!!"
