Our Town β The Greatest Hits is the first greatest hits
compilation album by the Scottish
rock band
Deacon Blue. The album reached the top spot of the
UK Albums Chart in May 1994 for two weeks,[2] and has been certified Platinum. It was also their second and final number one album to date.[2] It is also notable for being the 500th number one album since the charts inception in 1956.[citation needed]
The album contains the previous singles from the band, minus "
Closing Time" and "
Hang Your Head". The album also contains three new tracks: "
I Was Right and You Were Wrong", the first single from this album, expanded the musical direction the band had taken on the album Whatever You Say, Say Nothing. "Bound to Love" and "Still in the Mood" are
pop songs in the tradition of Deacon Blue's earlier albums.[citation needed]
