Greatest Hits is a compilation album by Australian singer Kylie Minogue, released in 1992. It contains 19 singles from her albums Kylie, Enjoy Yourself, Rhythm of Love and Let's Get To It, as well as 3 songs recorded specifically for inclusion on this album.

The album was largely written and produced by the Stock Aitken Waterman team, and its release marked the end of Minogue's professional relationship with them.

In Australia, the album was released with completely different artwork and was available as a limited edition digi-pack.

Greatest Hits entered the UK Album Chart at #1 and charted for 10 weeks.

This compilation was superseded by 2004's Ultimate Kylie collection.
