Greatest Hits was the one and only compilation album by Blink-182, released on November 1, 2005. On the same day, the DVD was released featuring the same title and cover. It included most of the band's music videos. Interestingly "Carousel" was not on the original track list released for the album but after many complaints by the fans ("Carousel" arguably being a well known song) it was included.
Fans are known to have complained about the DVD footage, as all of it was included on previous releases - The live footage off 'The Urethra Chronicles II', and the behind the scenes footage was included on the first 3 singles from the Untitled album. An edited version was released (like some other Blink-182 albums), however the track "Feeling This" was un-edited.
