Sobre el álbum
Un álbum de Texas- Greatest Hits, lanzado en el año 2000, sirvió para coronar la etapa más exitosa de la banda. Este recopilatorio no solo reunía los sencillos que los habían convertido en estrellas, sino que también funcionaba como una celebración de su increíble viaje musical. El disco traza su evolución desde el blues rock de sus inicios hasta el pop sofisticado que los definió en los 90.
La colección es un desfile de canciones inolvidables. De incluir clásicos como "I Don't Want a Lover" y "Say What You Want", el álbum presentaba varias canciones nuevas para mantener el interés de los fans. Una de ellas, "Inner Smile", se convirtió en un gran éxito por derecho propio, gracias en parte a su popular vídeo en el que Sharleen Spiteri homenajeaba a Elvis Presley.
Este grandes éxitos es la instantánea perfecta de una banda en la cima de su popularidad. Para muchos, fue la puerta de entrada definitiva a su música, un resumen impecable de una década de éxitos. Este álbum cimentó el legado de Texas como una de las bandas más queridas del Reino Unido.

Letra
Twenty seconds on the back time I feel you're on the run Never lived too long to make right I see you're doing fine And when I get that feeling I can no longer slide I can no longer run Ah no no And when I get that feeling I can no longer hide For it's no longer fun Ah no no Well, you can say what you want But it won't change my mind I'll feel the same About you And you can tell me your reasons But it won't change my feelings I'll feel the same About you What I am is what you want of me Yeh, now that I'm not there I took the tables away from you It's turned that I don't care And when I get that feeling I can no longer slide I can no longer run Ah no no And when I get that feeling I can no longer hide For it's no longer fun Ah no no Well, you can say what you want But it won't change my mind I'll feel the same About you And you can tell me your reasons But it won't change my feelings I'll feel the same About you Well, you can say what you want But that won't change my mind I'll feel the same About you And you can tell me your reasons But that won't change my feelings I'll feel the same About you I've said goodnight Try to sleep tight Ah just dream of me Go close your eyes Cause I've closed mine The sun will shine from time to time Oh, when you dream of me, yeh Well, you can say what you want But it won't change my mind I'll feel the same About you And you can tell me your reasons But it won't change my feelings I'll feel the same About you - Summer Son
Letra
I'm tired of telling the story Tired of telling it your way Yeh I know what I saw I know that I found the floor Before you take my heart, reconsider Before you take my heart, reconsider I've opened the door I've opened the door Here comes the summer's son He burns my skin I ache again I'm over you I thought I had a dream to hold Maybe that has gone Your hands reach out and touch me still But this feels so wrong Before you take my heart, reconsider Before you take my heart, reconsider I've opened the door I've opened the door Here comes the summer's son He burns my skin I ache again I'm over you Before you take my heart, reconsider Before you take my heart, reconsider I've opened the door I've opened the door Here comes the summer's son He burns my skin I ache again I'm over you Here comes the winter's rain To cleanse my skin I wake again I'm over you Here comes the summer's son He burns my skin I ache again I'm over you Here comes the winter's rain To cleanse my skin I wake again I'm over you I'm over you - Inner Smile
- So In Love With You
Letra
I'm so in love with you Whether it is right or it's wrong I'm too weak to be strong I'm so in love with you Well you say you need something To help you when you're down, to take your fears away Yeh you say you'd do anything To keep your feet off the ground And help you on your way You're all I need Yeh you are all that I need I'm so in love with you I'm so in love with you Whether it is right or it's wrong I'm too weak to be strong I'm so in love with you When you see your reflection You say it isn't you Then you turn the other way And I'm watching you suffer Yourself and your pain Please don't fade away - Black Eyed Boy

Letra
Yeh I'm gonna make you wonder if you're my friend Yeh I'm gonna make you wonder if you're my friend Yeh that's the way I choose them, all my friends Do you think you're close with all your promises Do you think I act strange when you talk to me It's cause I don't see you Yeh I'm gonna make you wonder if you're my friend Yeh I may as well tell you, you'll never be my friend Aah that's the way I choose them, all my friends The telephone always rings when you've got success You only want us when we're at our best But we don't hear you Yeh I'm gonna make you wonder if you're my friend It isn't our fault that your life's depressed We've listened and we've learned That all of the words that you say Yeh all of the words that you say Mean nothing Yeh I'm gonna make you wonder if you're my friend - Everyday Now
Letra
I just woke up and I can see it now It's never been this close before Tried to tell myself I didn't care Crying out why am I here There's no point in me hiding And only now I can see Everyday now Everyday now The blame's gonna fall on me Something deep inside said move away Try to leave what's good behind And I still ask myself Why I let it go All these years were wasted time There's no point in me hiding And only now I can see Everyday now Everyday now The blame's gonna fall on me Everyday now Everyday now The blame's gonna fall on me Cause I never told you That I could never live without it Now the blame's on me Everyday now Everyday now The blame's gonna fall on me Everyday now Everyday now The blame's gonna fall on me Everyday now Everyday now The blame's gonna fall on me - In Our Lifetime

Letra
Bright light city You're her religion Superstars in their own private movie Play just like children Lies that take her Places she's never seen The kiss and tell of it all To her it seems so obscene She's so pretty Her hair is a mess We all love her To that we confess She has a halo We really do adore her For she has a halo Can we touch her For their blindness She sees much further Like on a wide-screen viewing Going down on her She's so pretty Her hair is a mess We all love her To that we confess She has a halo We really do adore her For she has a halo Can we touch her She believes in everything She believes in nothing, in everything Halo, halo, halo, halo Halo, halo, halo, halo She has a halo We really do adore her For she has a halo Can we touch her She has a halo We really do adore her For she has a halo Can we touch her She believes in everything She believes in nothing, in everything She believes in everything She believes in nothing, in everything For she has a halo She has a halo - Guitar Song
- Prayer For You
Letra
All I see is the truth now That's all I want you to know That I'll never turn my back on you And leave you out there on your own I could never hide my feelings I could never let you fall And I want you to remember All the love that I've found Oh I say a prayer A prayer for you Oh for you I could never make a promise I'd only break it in the end Then you're looking for the answers You'd never trust in me again I could never watch you suffer I could never let you down And I hope you soon discover All the truth that I've now found Oh I say a prayer A prayer for you Oh for you Oh I say a prayer A prayer for you Oh for you - When We Are Together
