BBC Music said of the album...

<templatestyles src="Template:Blockquote/styles.css" />

Serving as a reminder to the songs Craig had in the early 2000s (decade), this Greatest Hits is at very least a fun listen. Craig David was a great pop star, who simply needs to take some time to rediscover his love of music and win back the hearts of the nation.
