Forever Faithless – The Greatest Hits is a greatest hits compilation album from the dance music group Faithless, which was released on 16 May 2005. It features all their released singles (other than "Take the Long Way Home"), plus three additional new tracks ("Fatty Boo", "Reasons (Saturday Night)", and "Why Go?" (2005 remix featuring Estelle).
Forever Faithless was the best selling dance album of 2005. It has sold 1,381,407 copies as of October 2015.[1] After the death of Faithless member Maxi Jazz in December 2022, Forever Faithless entered the UK Album Downloads Chart at number 7.[2]
Released on Arista Records, the American version of the Forever Faithless CD does not include "Fatty Boo", but is an enhanced disc with a bonus music video of the 2005 version of "Why Go".
Initial US pressings contained MediaMax CD-3 copy protection, but this was abandoned after the 2005 Sony BMG CD copy protection scandal.
Except "Insomnia" and "Salva Mea", the chart versions of each song are included, not the full-length versions. This was necessary to fit all the tracks into 1 hour 20 minutes.
