Why We Rated This on for Ages 12 and Up

The good stuff

  • Messages:

    There's a lot of edgy codependency that some may find slightly uncomfortable.
 

What to watch out for

  • Violence:

    Nothing violent.
  • Sex:

    Nothing explicit, a fair amount of poetic innuendo.
  • Language:

    Language is pretty darn clean.
  • Consumerism:

    Just a few brand names here and there.
  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Quite a few references to drinking, a couple of drug references.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About The Very Best of Sheryl Crow

Parents need to know that lyrics such as "I've got a crummy job -- it don't pay near enough -- to buy the things it takes -- to buy me some of your love" (in "Soak Up the Sun") deliver a tiresome codependent message, no matter how catchy the tune.
