Singles of the 90s is a compilation album by Swedish pop music group, Ace of Base. It was released on November 15, 1999 in Europe, Asia, and Africa. An American version, titled Greatest Hits, was released on April 18, 2000, but is generally considered highly inferior as it contained no new songs, and introduced track errors. The American version, released by Arista Records, sold poorly.

The Singles of the 90s album contained the new tracks "C'est la Vie (Always 21)", "Hallo Hallo", "Love in December", along with many of the band's earlier hits. The video for "C'est la Vie (Always 21)" was filmed in the band's hometown of Gothenburg.
