Greatest Hits is the first compilation album by American singer Paula Abdul. Released on September 26, 2000, it contains Paula's six number-one singles and other singles, with the exception of the top 20 single "Will You Marry Me?". It does, however, include "Crazy Love" which was previously only available on the Japanese version of Head over Heels and not available in the US. This compilation also contains a previously unreleased Megamix Medley. It did not chart in the US, but reached the top 400 albums in Australia.[3] By January 2006, the album had sold 138,000 copies in the United States.[4]
