The Special Ones (subtitled The Best Of) is the first greatest hits album by Australian singer songwriter, Missy Higgins.

[2] Upon release, Higgins explained The Special Ones saying "Usually, they're the ones that get the biggest reaction at gigs, the ones that most connect with people, the ones that seem to have touched on some universal truth.

They move you in a way you find hard to articulate, they roll to the rhythm of some internal beat you knew was there but couldn't quite express.

"[1] The album will be supported by the national Coming Home Tour, commencing in January 2019.

[3] Jeff Jenkins from Stack Magazine said "Missy Higgins' career hasn’t been long.. but her body of work, as exhibited on this first best-of, shows that she might be the finest female singer-songwriter Australia has produced.
