Writing and recording
“My Choice" evolves from the piano sound in the beginning to the powerful string melody in the chorus, which set off the deep feelings in Tsai's singing, her voice in the beginning shows her delicate and emotional singing skills, the lyrics also describe a state of mind in which breaking up was not "my choice" after love is gone. "Clothing Astrology" is a dance song that incorporated hip-hop, and the strong sense of rhythm with her sexy voice charm make people follow the music to move their body.

Critical reception
Tencent Entertainment's Shuwa commented, "This Sony-released greatest hits album was released a week earlier than Jolin Tsai's new album Dancing Diva released by EMI. Jolin Tsai faced the competition between her two albums for the second time. There is no hype or nothing to be hyped, just at that time, as long as they were Jolin Tsai's albums, they would become the collections of music fans. In terms of the whole album, two new songs, 20 hits released during the Sony period, and the out-of-print J1 Concert video clip were attractive. It was technically the first greatest hits album that a label did for Jolin Tsai that was available for pre-order, and it became the best-selling greatest hits album that Jolin Tsai released by Sony."

Sina Music's Stephen Lee commented: "In fact, this album includes all of her hits released during the Sony BMG period, it was quite attractive, for example," Say Love You ", "Magic", "Sky", "Overlooking Purposely", "Pirates", and "J-Game", no matter in Hong Kong or Taiwan, a lot of people sang karaoke of such songs, it was also her representative work at Sony. If you want to look back on her development during this period, these songs are indispensable. As for the two new songs, "My Choice" and "Clothing Astrology" are only of average quality. The former's lyrics are smooth and lyrical in style, while the music arrangement is listenable, but it also brings out a sad atmosphere, compared with "Sky", "Rewind", and her other works, it doesn't stand out and is just a smooth ballad. As for another song "Clothing Astrology", its lyrics and melody are average, the whole song seems to have no spirit, even her singing is not good, or it's better to listen to her old songs."
