Greatest Hits: Straight Up! is the second greatest hits compilation by singer Paula Abdul. The album was released on May 8, 2007. The album contains Abdul's 6 U.S. number-one singles. This compilation also includes the top-20 single "Will You Marry Me?" which was left off her 2000 Greatest Hits album, but excludes the previously unreleased track "Crazy Love". Like its predecessor album, Greatest Hits: Straight Up! did not chart on the Billboard 200 (though it did chart near the bottom of the R&B Albums chart).^[3] As well as containing Abdul's hits, it includes the "Heads Over Heels" album tracks "If I Were Your Girl" and "It's All About Feeling Good".
