VH1 Behind the Music: Go-Go's Collection is The Go-Go's third compilation album, released in 2000, on the Interscope Records label. It contains previously released songs from the band, including all of their singles, except "He's So Strange", originally on their second album, the 1982 Vacation, plus a number of stand-out tracks, and one non-album B-side, "Speeding", also recorded during the Vacation sessions.

The compilation album was released a year before the group definitively reunited for their comeback studio album God Bless The Go-Go's, which was released in 2001.
