Sarah Connor is a compilation album by German soul/R&B singer Sarah Connor, released in 2004. It served as her debut album in the United States.

About

Sarah Connor was released in 2004 in response to the success of the lead single "Bounce". Sarah Connor is Germany's biggest selling female popstar; however despite singing in English she never seriously attempted to take her music outside of German speaking countries (she released "Bounce" in England in 2003 with little promotion though as in America is charted in the top 20).

In Fall 2003 Sarah had released "Key to My Soul" during her early pregnancy. It was about that time her song "Bounce" was found by some American DJs who put it on their playlists. Soon "Bounce" was on playlists all over the US and peaked at #54. Sony realized they had a potential hit on their hands and decided to try and release a Sarah Connor CD in the US. With no time to record and Sarah on a baby break they decided to release a compilation of her previous singles from all 3 albums. The album's cover is the same as that of Green Eyed Soul, albeit with the text Green Eyed Soul removed.

"Sarah Connor" the album was released on March 9, 2004; a few days before Sarah's son Tyler was born. There was no promotion and the album only hit #116 on Billboard's "Top 200" chart. It was her first (and as of 2012), only American release.

The version of "Bounce" included on this compilation is the Clean Radio Edit. This is the mix that was released to US Radio (and also featured on the US compilation Now That's What I Call Music! Volume 15, released in March 2004).
