Turn It On Again: The Hits is a greatest hits album by British progressive rock/pop-rock band Genesis. The album was originally released as a single album on 25 October 1999 by Virgin Records in the UK and on 26 October 1999 by Atlantic Records in the US.

In 2007, an expanded two-disc edition, subtitled The Tour Edition, was released to promote the Turn It On Again: The Tour reunion. All tracks except "The Carpet Crawlers 1999" were remixed by Nick Davis. Besides the 2-CD version, a 2-CD + DVD version was issued, which included The Video Show DVD.

Album profile

All tracks feature the long-lasting Banks-Collins-Rutherford lineup of Genesis, with the exception of "I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe)" and "The Carpet Crawlers 1999", which feature the Banks-Collins-Gabriel-Hackett-Rutherford lineup, and "Congo", which features the Banks-Rutherford-Wilson lineup.

Upon its release, Turn It On Again: The Hits reached No. 4 on the UK Albums Chart and No. 65 on the US Billboard 200, where it achieved gold record status.

In 2007, The Tour Edition was also successful, re-entering the UK charts at No. 14 and the following week climbing to No. 5. The Tour Edition was released in the US on 11 September replacing The Platinum Collection.

The seven letters of the Genesis logo on the cover are parts of the different album cover logos over the years. They are as follows:
