Reflections: Greatest Hits is the first compilation album by American country music artist Lorrie Morgan.[1] It was released on Morgan's birthday in 1995 as a special, limited production; deluxe edition. It featured three previously unreleased tracks, an enclosed biography of Lorrie Morgan, ornate packaging and the allure of collectability.

Reflections: Greatest Hits debuted on Billboard's "Hot Country Albums" chart, July 15, 1995. Morgan won the "Hot Shot Debut" award for an impressive #5 debut on the country albums chart. It debuted on the "Billboard 200" at No. 54 that same week.[2]

Measured success

All three previously unreleased songs on the Reflections: Greatest Hits compilation were released as a single. The first, "I Didn't Know My Own Strength" was released in advance of the album and had been on the "Hot Country Singles & Tracks" chart for 11 weeks when the album debuted.[3] The second single, "Back in Your Arms Again", was released on August 28, 1995.[4] They peaked at numbers 1 and 4[5] on the Billboard "Hot Country Singles & Tracks" chart respectively. "Standing Tall", a cover of Billie Jo Spears' 1980 single, was released in September 1995[6] and peaked at 32 in early 1996.[5]

The rest of the album consists of two hits from Leave the Light On, three from Something in Red, two from Watch Me, and the #13 duet with Morgan's then husband Keith Whitley, "'Til a Tear Becomes a Rose", which originally appeared on Whitley's own Greatest Hits album in 1990. Reflections peaked at #5 on the "Top Country Albums" chart and #46 on the U.S. "Billboard 200" album chart.
