Line 92:
** ''Cirque du Soleil Collection'' (1996) covered ''Le Cirque Reinvente'' through ''Alegria''.
** ''Le Best of...'' (2004), a tie-in to the company's 20th anniversary, was an update of the previous album that dropped all the songs from shows that had closed and added ones from those that had since opened, up through ''Varekai''.
** ''25'' (2009) tied into the company's ''25th'' anniversary and featured a fresh tracklist over two CDs. With the exceptions of ''Pomp Duck and Circumstance'' (which Cirque only co-produced, rather than created in-house) and the [[The Beatles (band)|unique case]] of ''LOVE'', every live show through ''OVO'' was represented, even those that didn't yet have soundtrack albums (''[[Criss Angel Believe]]'', ''ZED'', and ''OVO''). The earliest shows' songs hadn't appeared on CD until this album. Even the mostly-forgotten dramatic film based on ''[[Alegria]]'' was represented with the remake of the title song that only appeared on its soundtrack album, making it the only song that appeared on all three compilations in some way—but it ''is'' Cirque's [[Signature Song]].
* Subverted by ex-Beatle Pete Best, who named a nondescript solo album "Best of the Beatles" to confuse record buyers.
* [[Jean Michel Jarre]] had a whole number of these: ''The Essential'' (7" versions from 1976 to 1985), ''Musik aus Zeit und Raum'' (pretty much ditto), ''Images - The Best Of Jean Michel Jarre'' (partly edited, partly re-recorded, partly remixed live versions from 1976 to 1990 + a few unreleased tracks), ''The Essential Jean Michel Jarre'' (1976 to 2000 including some not really Greatest Hits, not released by Jarre himself but by Francis Dreyfus), ''Aero'' (mostly re-recorded material from 1976 to 1997 + a few new tracks).
