text: # Greatest Hits (2008 Ace of Base album)
  
  Greatest Hits is a greatest hits album by Swedish group Ace of Base. It is their second compilation with this title, the first being Arista's 2000 US release Greatest Hits (2000). It was released under Playground Music on 14 November 2008, and is the last album to be released under the original contract of five original albums. The compilation was released in multiple formats, including a single disc edition and a 2-CD+DVD compilation which includes 16 of their hits, 13 previously released remixes, and 17 music videos. The set also includes four newly recorded remakes of hit songs. Beside previously unreleased songs included on the 2015 compilation album Hidden Gems, this is the last Ace of Base album to date with new material to feature vocalist Jenny Berggren.
  
  In 2019, the collection was repackaged with Hidden Gems instead of the DVD and released as Ace of Base – Gold in the United Kingdom. The re-release charted 59 for one week in the UK and thus was Ace of Base's return to the charts since their 2010 album The Golden Ratio worldwide and since the 1999 compilation Singles of the 90s in the UK.
  
  ## Background
  
  The project was initially conceived as Ace of Base's fifth studio album, to consist of seven new songs and seven re-recordings of hit songs. The remakes were created to give the songs a more modern feel. According to Ulf Ekberg, the compilation was a contract obligation and halted plans for the band's then-upcoming album. Though Linn's image appears on the cover of the compilation, she is not featured on any of the new material.
  
  The set includes re-recorded versions of the songs "Wheel of Fortune" and "Don't Turn Around", while the version released internationally on iTunes includes a remake of "Lucky Love", and the Japanese edition includes a new version of "The Sign". An expanded version of the remixes portion called "Classic Remixes Extended" was later released to iTunes, consisting of 44 previously released remixes.
