{"product_id":"greatest_hits-7","title":"Greatest Hits","description":"\u003cp\u003eGreatest Hits is Mariah Carey’s double‑disc compilation album, released on December 4, 2001 by Columbia Records after her departure from the label and the commercial troubles surrounding Glitter. Unlike the earlier #1’s collection, which focused only on U.S. Billboard Hot 100 number‑ones, Greatest Hits aims to give a broader picture of her first decade, covering recordings from 1988–2001 and including most of her singles from 1990 to 2000. Across 28 tracks and almost two hours of music, it presents her fifteen U.S. number‑one songs alongside major hits that either peaked lower on the charts or were bigger outside the U.S., such as her UK chart‑toppers “Without You” and “Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now)” (here in its controversial duet version with Westlife).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe first disc focuses largely on her early ’90s ballad‑and‑pop era, featuring “Vision of Love,” “Love Takes Time,” “Someday,” “I Don’t Wanna Cry,” “Emotions,” “Can’t Let Go,” “Make It Happen,” “I’ll Be There,” “Dreamlover,” and “Hero,” while the second disc tracks her shift into more hip‑hop‑infused R\u0026amp;B with songs like “Fantasy,” “Always Be My Baby,” “Honey,” “My All,” “Heartbreaker,” and “Thank God I Found You.” Carey herself has said she prefers this compilation to #1’s because it finally gives space to fan‑favorite album cuts and non‑number‑one singles—she singled out “Underneath the Stars” and other overlooked tracks as songs that “needed to be really heard.” The set also includes one “new” item for longtime listeners: a hip‑hop remix of “All I Want For Christmas Is You” featuring Jermaine Dupri and Lil’ Bow Wow, which underscores her growing comfort blending holiday pop and rap aesthetics. Though Greatest Hits peaked only at No. 52 on the Billboard 200, it has enjoyed steady sales over time and is certified 2x platinum in the U.S. and 3x platinum in both the UK and Australia, now standing as the most comprehensive snapshot of Carey’s Columbia‑era evolution from ballad‑oriented diva to hip‑hop‑leaning pop\/R\u0026amp;B icon.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Record Store","offers":[{"title":"CD \/ 2CD","offer_id":53779191759162,"sku":"39366","price":12.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/2041\/0682\/files\/Screenshot_2026-07-22_at_7.22.24_PM.jpeg?v=1784762649","url":"https:\/\/recordstore.ca\/products\/greatest_hits-7","provider":"Record Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
