Dance Like You Don't Give a.... Greatest Hits Remixes is the third greatest hits album and second remix album by American country singer LeAnn Rimes. The album was released on August 5, 2014, by Curb Records. It became Rimes's first album to chart on the US Billboard Dance/Electronic Albums chart.

Background and release

The album was originally set to be released in June 2014[1] but was postponed to August 5, 2014, where it was released to digital download and streaming services by Curb Records.[2] The album was also released on CD exclusively to US Walmart stores along with Rimes's first greatest hits album.[3] The album consists of remixes of Rimes's top 20 Hot 100 singles, as well as newer remixes of older hits. For the remixes to "Crazy Women" and "Spitfire", Rimes went back into the studio to record new vocals for the songs.[4]

In an interview with Country Weekly Rimes stated, "Everyone knows I love to dance. What better way to celebrate the next chapter of my music than to remix some of my favorite hits from over the years to get my fans out on the dance floor shaking their asses."[5]

Commercial performance

The album debuted at number sixteen on the Billboard Dance/Electronic Albums chart, becoming Rimes's first album to ever enter the chart. However, due to the CD set released exclusively at Walmart containing Rimes's previously released Greatest Hits album the sales for that set, 2,000 units, were ineligible to be included with the stand-alone album and as such charted at number nineteen, three spots below it, on the Dance/Electronic Albums chart. The album peaked at number fifty on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart.[6]
