McEntire has been delivering number one songs for many years. Her name and
voice are synonymous with country music. Reba now marks that career by
turning in a 35-song compilation of her number one singles, plus two brand
new recordings.
Reba #1’s is a celebration of a career that has included 33 #1 hits, 29
albums, multiple awards and countless shows and performances. This album
is a collection of the songs country music fans have known and loved for
over two decades. As a mainstay on country radio, Reba’s music has become
a soundtrack for the human experience. She has put words to our heartache
with songs like "You Lie," "Somebody Should Leave" and "Rumor Has It";
inspired us with "I’m A Survivor" and "How Was I To Know"; and broke our
hearts with "The Greatest Man I Never Knew" and "And Still." And no one
can deliver a love song like the redhead from Oklahoma – "Somebody"
and "Forever Love" gave us hope that love really does conquer all. The
first new single from Reba #1’s, "You’re Gonna Be," speaks of a mother’
s love for her child through all of the ups and downs that life brings.
The soaring chorus is a mix of advice, encouragement and inspiration. A
second new song, "Love Needs A Holiday," is an upbeat tale of a married
couple who just needs a break from the daily grind. Both songs teem with
the passion and talent Reba fans know and love, and listeners will
recognize a piece of themselves in the stories they tell. That talent has
also brought her a slew of awards and honors, including 15 American Music
Awards, 12 Academy of Country Music awards, 7 Country Music Association
awards and 2 Grammy’s. In a career that has now expanded beyond music,
Reba is also a multiple award winner in the acting arena. Her critically
acclaimed Broadway debut in 2001’s ANNIE GET YOUR GUN was awarded both
the Drama Desk and Outer Critics awards. Now in its fifth season, her self-
titled TV show, REBA, reigns as the WB’s top rated sitcom and has landed
Reba a Golden Globe nomination and a People’s Choice Award. Reba’s ever-
expanding talents have now grown to encompass a clothing line as well.The
line is an extension of Reba’s style and taste, and offers a bit of her
personality to shoppers. Through her music, television show, clothing
collection, and everything else she does, Reba McEntire represents the
ideals, dreams and issues that people of all backgrounds care about. She
speaks to our everyday lives while showing us what else is out there. Her
personality and talent have drawn in millions of fans. It's why she became
the first country female artist to sell five million copies of one album
since Patsy Cline. It's why she's now sold more than 49 million albums in
her career. Reba McEntire has been the leading lady of country music for
over 20 years. While her career now stretches far beyond country music,
she’s never forgotten her roots. She is a role model for those who have
come behind her, inspiring them to take chances and refuse to accept
limitations on what they can do. Reba #1’s is a picture of longevity and
consistency, of music that inspires and reaches people where they are. It’
s Reba McEntire at her very best.
