The Hits & Beyond is a greatest hits compilation album by Australian pop–dance singer Dannii Minogue. It was released by All Around the World Records on June 19, 2006.

[edit] Album History

The album includes Minogue's most successful singles released over the past fifteen years as well as six new songs; including the album's first single "So Under Pressure", which was released on June 12. The album was released as a single CD release and as a double CD/DVD package. It was released in New Zealand shortly before the end of 2006 and to date remains unreleased in mainland Europe, Asia and the US.

A reissue was tentatively planned and was to include Minogue's version of He's The Greatest Dancer but was scrapped due to Minogue's failure to film the promotional video for the single.

The album has sold approximately 45,000 copies in the UK.^[1]
