Keith Urban’s latest release – “18 Kids Greatest Hits” hit the stores just in time for Christmas. While there is only one new song on the CD, there are 17 other songs that have been big hits for the country mega-star. I have a problem with most greatest hits CDs. If you are a fan of the performer, you buy their CDs as they come out and, as in this case, you have all the songs without buying the compilation. However, on the special edition CD, Urban has included a second disk with 12 videos in DVD format that make this an excellent collection – and worth the money. If you are new to Keith Urban music, the CD shows off his amazing talents as a singer, songwriter and guitarist. This is definitely his best ballads mixed in with his best rock on one CD and watching the videos will give the newcomer a great chance to see why he keeps selling out venues and is nominated for CMA Entertainer of the Year. Urban explains that the CD title refers to the fact that the songs he has included he thinks of as his children; songs that he has nurtured in the recording studio and on stage and listening to them you get it. He is about the music and the sincerity and love comes through on each and every track. Let’s hope he continues to grow and add to the family!
