The Hits Collection is a compilation album by Kim Wilde. The album was released on March 6, 2006. Originally the album was intended to be a repackaged version of the 1996 compilation Best of Kim Wilde. When the album was announced, the webmaster of Wilde's fansite contacted EMI and asked if it would be a better idea to release a new compilation of Wilde's EMI "first" years 1981-1983 instead. EMI agreed, and so this compilation came to be. It included Wilde's 1982 track "Bitter Is Better", which had not been released in the UK until this CD.[1] This compilation assembled the first eight singles of Wilde's career (tracks 1-8) as well as their respective B-sides (tracks 9 through 16) in chronological order; filling up the track order are the aforementioned unreleased track as well as the two 12" A-sides of that time-frame.
