Incomplete and premature, this ten-track compilation appeared at a time when Jennifer Warnes had released only two albums on Arista, resulting in five pop singles chart entries, including the Top Ten hit "Right Time of the Night" and the Top 40 hit "I Know a Heartache When I See One." This album contained four of the five, plus "Could It Be Love" and "Come to Me," which subsequently charted, a third newly recorded song, "Run to Her," two LP tracks composed by Warnes, and "It Goes like It Goes," the theme from the movie Norma Rae, which had won an Academy Award. Skimpy when released, the album has since become potentially deceptive, since it is easy for consumers to pick it up assuming it contains later Warnes hits like "Up Where We Belong" and "(I've Had) The Time of My Life." In fact, since Warnes has been on many labels and several of her hits are one-off movie themes, there is no reliable compilation of her work.

William Ruhlmann, All-Music Guide

Jennifer Warnes has got to be the most underrated, under appreciated singer in the entire recording industry. She's also not very prolific, which is likely the main reason she's so often forgotten, having released only 4 albums of new material in the past 25 years. This compilation includes tracks from her two 70's Arista albums ("Jennifer Warnes" and "Shot Through the Heart") as well as several singles and b-sides. "The Right Time of the Night" and "I Know a Heartache When I See One" are her biggest solo hits, but the best tracks here are "It Goes Like It Goes", the hauntingly beautiful, Oscar-winning theme song to "Norma Rae", and two Jennifer Warnes originals, the Laura Nyro-like "Shot Through the Heart" and the heartbreaking "I'm Restless", both of which reveal her to be as talented a writer as she is a singer. It's a good collection, and highly recommended for the beautiful voice of Jennifer Warnes, but Arista chose some puzzling selections to include. "Run to Her" and "Come To Me" are both fine songs, but they never appeared on a Jennifer Warnes album. Instead, Arista should have included her beautiful cover of the Everly Brothers "Love Hurts" and her self-penned "Frankie in the Rain", two of her best recordings and unavailable on cd. As good as "The Best of Jennifer Warnes" is, it could have been better!!

RIGHT TIME OF THE NIGHT

Sun goes down on a silky day
Quarter moon walkin' thru the Milky Way
When it's me and you baby
We could think of somethin' to do
'Cause it's the right time of the night
Oh, the stars are winkin' above
Honey, it's the right time of the night
For makin' love

We'll go drinkin' in some heavy bar
I'll take you night ridin' in my chevy car
When it's me and you baby
We could think of somethin' to do
'Cause it's the right time of the night
Oh, the stars are winkin' above
Honey, it's the right time of the night
For makin' love

I got you and you got me
Tell you, that's the way my momma
Always said it should be
I'll be sweet and you'll be kind
We'll be bad, if you don't mind

It's the right time of the night
Oh, the stars are winkin' above
Honey, it's the right time of the night
For makin' love

Right Time Of The Night Rate Song | Add Song to Fav's
Sun goes down on a silky day
Quarter moon walkin' thru the Milky Way
When it's me and you baby
We could think of somethin' to do
'Cause it's the right time of the night
Oh, the stars are winkin' above
Honey, it's the right time of the night
For makin' love

We'll go drinkin' in some heavy bar
I'll take you night ridin' in my chevy car
When it's me and you baby
We could think of somethin' to do
'Cause it's the right time of the night
Oh, the stars are winkin' above
Honey, it's the right time of the night
For makin' love

I got you and you got me
Tell you, that's the way my momma
Always said it should be
I'll be sweet and you'll be kind
We'll be bad, if you don't mind

It's the right time of the night
Oh, the stars are winkin' above
Honey, it's the right time of the night
For makin' love

IT GOES LIKE IT GOES

Ain't no miracle being born
people doin' it everyday
aint no miracle growin' old
people just roll that way

So it goes like it goes
and the river flows
and time it rolls right on
and maybe what's good
gets a little bit better
and maybe what's bad gets gone

Bless the child of the workin' man
she knows too soon who she is
and bless the hands of a workin' man
he knows his soul is his

So it goes like it goes
and the river flows
and time it rolls right on
and maybe whats good
gets a little bit better
and maybe what's bad gets gone

Yeah it goes like it goes
like the river flows
and time keeps rollin' on
and maybe what's good
gets a little bit better
and maybe what's bad gets gone

I KNOW A HEARTACHE WHEN I SEE ONE

Look at through the winds
Blowin' up the road
Shining like a northern star
Actin' like the answers
To all my prayers
But, baby, I know what you really are

CHORUS
So don't you knock on my door
I won't be home anymore
You can find me out walking in the sun
Oh, you hide it so well
It isn't easy to tell
But I know a heartache
When I see one

There was a time
I was a true believer
Your love was the only way
Well you can save all your sweet talkin'
For some other fool
Only a fool would believe what you say

Chorus

Time is a teacher
Oh, and it's taught me well
The loser is the one who cries
And when you've cried like a baby
And you've hurt like hell
You know the devil
By the look in his eyes

Chorus (x2)
I know a heartache when I see one

WHEN THE FEELING COMES AROUND

We were walking in the sand I could feel your heart pound
A man and a woman, walking in the sundown
Maybe now I'll understand how you feel the way you do
We all have the same emotion, Baby I can feel it too

It's like the rocking of the ocean
The rolling of the sea
When the feeling comes around
When the feeling comes around

I have looked for love before
I was looking all around you
I'm not looking anymore
Now that I've found you, I've found you
When there's something deep inside
that tells me this is real
We're not just going through the motions this time
I know it's love we feel

Just like the rocking of the ocean
The rolling of the sea
When the feeling comes around
When the feeling comes around

It's like the rocking of the ocean
Like the rolling of the sea
When the feeling comes around
When the feeling comes around

It's like the rocking of the ocean
The rolling of the sea
When the feeling comes around
When the feeling comes around

la la la da la la la
la la la da la

Like the rocking of the ocean
The rolling of the sea
When the feeling comes around
When the feeling comes around

It's like the rocking of the ocean
The rolling of the sea
When the feeling comes around
When the feeling comes around

I'M RESTLESS

There are words to say but I swear I just can't find them
Though in my heart I know fools
May hesitate from the memories behind them
While the angels laugh and say, I told you so
Oh, I'm restless, darling I'm restless
Waiting for you to look my way
I don't think that I can wait another day

verse:
I cry when the feeling overtakes me
'Cos the love I give seems so little in your eyes
The test of time always breaks me
With nothing tried, and nothing realised
Oh, I'm restless, darling I'm restless
Waiting for you to look my way
I don't think that I can wait another day

No man is an island but you do that very well
It sure takes a fool to find another

verse:
But I believe for every heart that's broken
There's a stranger's smile to put it on the mend, then
Those old familiar feelings seldom spoken
Out of nowhere come back again
And I'm restless, darling I'm restless
Waiting for you to look my way
I don't think that I..., the hour is getting late
I can't wait another day
