The Greatest Hits is the second
The album contains a selection of singles from across the band's ten-year career, as well as three previously unreleased tracks. A limited edition double-disc version of the album, containing further singles plus five previously unreleased live recordings, was also made available for a limited time from the day of release.[2]
All I Want was one of five new songs recorded for the campaign; two further new recordings, "Hear Me Now" and "(Feels Like I'm) Walking on Water", appear on the album itself, and "Learn from Each Mistake" and "I Don't Wanna Fight Anymore" appear as B-sides on the All I Want single release.
