Olivia Newton-John's Greatest Hits is a greatest hits album released by Olivia Newton-John in 1977. In Australasia, it was released as Greatest Hits Vol. 2 as an extension of the 1974 compilation First Impressions, while in other regions, it fully spanned Newton-John's career up to the point of release. The international edition of the album collected all of Newton-John's American Top 40 singles released between 1971 and 1977. "Changes" was the only track not released as a single, but it was one of Newton-John's first self-written songs that she recorded. The album became Newton-John's first to be certified platinum in the United States and peaked at number 13 on the Billboard 200 and number seven on the Top Country Albums chart. It ended up being certified double Platinum in the US and Platinum in the UK and Canada, as well as Gold in Hong Kong.

Reception

Cash Box magazine called it "twelve of her best-loved numbers and some breathtaking photographs of one of contemporary music's most photogenic personalities all in one package. An excellent and well-rounded introduction to Olivia's work for those who have yet to be captivated by her wholesome charm and sweet sounding vocal style.". In their review, Billboard called the album "a long awaited and well deserved greatest hits set, with all but one of the cuts having made the Top 40. The material ranges horn Olivia's 1971 creampuff folkie hit with Bob Dylan's "If Not For You" to her gutsy, throaty reading of the Bee Gees' "Come On Over." Also included are rollicking country hits, exquisitely arranged, plaintive MOR songs; easy tempo supper club tunes and spry Top 40 hits."
