The Essential Barbra Streisand (released in some countries as The Ultimate Collection) is a two-disc compilation album of Barbra Streisand (her first career-retrospective) released by Sony BMG as part of their Essentials series. Released in January 2002, and drawing from four decades of her work, it includes all but one of her top-ten hits, and most of her top-forty hits. The album was particularly well-received as it reviewed most of her career—throughout its 38 songs, there are 26 albums represented. In addition, it includes two previously unreleased songs—"Someday My Prince Will Come" and a rendition of "You'll Never Walk Alone". The album was a big hit. It also went Platinum in the UK and Australia.
A new version appeared on August 26, 2008 with a new added third disc with 9 tracks.
