A selection of emotional and electrically charged videos Oct 09, 1999
By Kevin Birch This collection, although short, is surprisingly uplifting. "We shall be free" really creates a feeling of hope for the human spirit. "Standing outside the fire" is a great track but an even better video, a mini movie concerning social issues. "The Red Strokes" is the let down of the bunch but the "behind the scenes" more than make up for the uneventful video. All these videos are introduced by Garth himself which gives a very personal touch. With the added video, "The Change" (In tribute to the victims and the survivors of the Oklohoma bombing), this video succeeds in lifting your heart and making you glad that you spent your hard earned money on a thirty five minute video.

It Blew Me Away! Feb 12, 2001 I just saw the video "Standing Outside the Fire" at a conference last week. We were all in tears. I had to buy it to use for our Let's Get A Life training. This young man with Down syndrome shows self-determination with a bang. I have a 14 year old son with Down syndrome and this video really hit home. It is not often that we can find training materials produced with such talent, polish and impact. Thank you Garth.

The Video Collection Volume Two Dec 12, 2003 The Video Collection Volume Two.It was an awesome video collection & the videos where great.One was a Gospel video called "We Shall Be Free" which was talking about freedom,peace,faith & love.One thing was so cool about the video was there was so many scenes and stars on the video that It was very cool.The videos on the collection Were "We Shall Be Free",Standing Outside The Fire",The Red Strokes & Two Versions of The Change one is the real thing & the other is just the video,but Garth's not In It.The only thing I wish they would do with the Collection was release It opn DVD & add more features like a Biography,show the entire collection of his videos & add more videos.Garth has made a total of 27 videos since 1988 & the only thing I wish Is If they did release It on DVD please add "Ain't Going Down Till The Sun Comes Up","Callin' Baton Rouge","Somewhere Other Than The Night","Anonymous","That Summer","Learning to Live Again","The Beaches Of Cheyenne","It's Your Song" & "I Don't Have To Wonder".Note all of these songs I noted here are:videos & they used to be shown on CMT,but they never show them anymore they all came out in between 1991 & 1997 they are all awesome & If the people who make these videos would release It on DVD & add these features to them that would be really cool.It's a shame they always release DVD's of Pop Artists,Country Artists & Other Artists except Garth Brooks which Is terrible that like ot release DVD Videos for other artists & not Garth isn't It & they should be ashamed.People just think since Garth Brooks ain't releasing albums lately that they can't make a brand new video collection of his best videos & more features like a biography,the videos I listed & show the albums he's had.Instead of letting his best videos never be shown again or at least be able to be bought at a store.It's aweful Isn't It.If the people who release DVD versions of artist VHS & DVD Videos see this please & think about re-releasing his Video Collections on DVD format & add more features too & I wish someday that they would come out with a Complete Video Collection of ALL OF HIS VIDEOS FROM 1988-2001 WHICH WOULD BE EXCELLENT. Garth fan, JARET

A definite "Must Have" for GB fans or music video lovers!!! Jan 27, 2002 Not only are these videos the best of the best from Garth Brooks, they are 10 times better than most of the music videos out there! The majority of the music videos today are so cut and dry it makes me yak. They are only made because it's the "in" thing for singers and the record companies want to make a quick buck. These videos ("We Shall be Free", "Standing Outside the Fire", "The Red Strokes" and "The Change") have actual emotion and meaning. The special effects are cutting edge and the songs really come to life. I recommend this to anyone. Even if you don't like Garth you'll love these videos.
