Greatest Hits (Anna Abreu album)

Greatest Hits is the first compilation album by Finnish singer-songwriter Anna Abreu, released in Finland by RCA on February 22, 2012. The album contains all of the singles released from Abreu's four previous studio albums (Anna Abreu, Now, Just a Pretty Face? and Rush) along with several album tracks that were favourites of Abreu's. The album was released in two formats: a CD only version containing eighteen tracks, or a 2-disc CD/DVD version which also includes Abreu's eight music videos and a documentary. The album would be Abreu's final release under her recording contract with RCA, as she moved to Warner Bros. Records later in 2012.
