Our Take

Ahhh, Missy Higgins, the Australian songbird with a voice as smooth as Vegemite on toast. Her greatest hits album, "The Special Ones - Best Of," serves as a delightful retrospective of her illustrious career.

From the moment you press play, you are transported to a land down under where catchy melodies and heartfelt lyrics reign supreme. Higgins' signature piano-driven ballads, such as "Scar" and "Steer," tug at your heartstrings, while more upbeat tracks like "Ten Days" and "Where I Stood" will have you dancing around the room like a kangaroo on Red Bull.

The album is a perfect blend of nostalgia and new discoveries, with a few live recordings thrown in for good measure. Higgins' emotive delivery and catchy hooks will have you singing along, even if you've never set foot in Australia.

Overall, "The Special Ones - Best Of" is a must-have for any fan of good music. Higgins' talent shines bright like the Southern Cross in the night sky, and this album is a testament to her enduring appeal. So grab your didgeridoo and put another shrimp on the barbie, because Missy Higgins is here to stay. Cheers, mate!
