Rising to modest fame with her surprise hit, "Stay (I Missed You)," which was featured in the 1994 film REALITY BITES, New York City-based singer/songwriter Lisa Loeb charmed audiences with her bookish, bespectacled persona and sugary-sweet alt-pop tunes. This 2006 collection draws largely on cuts from Loeb's first two Geffen albums ('95's TAILS and '97's FIRECRACKER), including the delicate aforementioned song and the energetic "I Do." The disc also surveys her later work for smaller labels and includes the previously unreleased "Single Me Out," a fast-paced, guitar-driven track that served as the theme song to her own reality-TV show. True to its title, THE VERY BEST OF LISA LOEB is all that fans and curious listeners could ask for in a single-disc retrospective.
