Busted are celebrating 20 years since their debut album with their brand new ‘Greatest Hits’ package.
Having shared reimagined 2.0 versions of Loser Kid (feat. Simple Plan), Meet You There (feat. Neck Deep) and Crashed The Wedding (feat. All Time Low), the group return with their first-ever best-of collection on September 15.
The album is launched alongside another crowd-pleasing collab as Busted are joined by Jonas Brothers for a rejuvenated take on Year 3000.
Switching things up, the LP sees Charlie Simpson, James Bourne and Matt Willis collate newly recorded versions of all of Busted’s biggest hits, fan favourites and live staples.
Meanwhile, the album’s deluxe formats also feature a host of previously unreleased dream collaboration special guests with McFly, James Arthur, You Me At Six, The Vamps, Bowling For Soup, Dashboard Confessional, Deaf Havana, Wheatus and rising newcomer Charlotte Sands.
Also featured is a new version of Hanson’s MMMBop, a collaboration with the sibling trio, and the brand new song, Good One.
‘Greatest Hits’ is available to pre-order now.

Marking their latest milestone, the band will also embark on a huge arena tour, kicking off in September and playing across the UK and Ireland through October – with Matt promising it will be their “best ever”.
Speaking exclusively in RETROPOP’s May 2023 cover feature, he says: “We have so many ideas,. We’re in the stage where we’re throwing everything at people and they’re saying, ‘Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.’ Then they come back and say, ‘No, no, no, no, no – that’s gonna cost you all of your money. You can’t do that!’
“But at the moment, we’re just coming up with the coolest shit we can think of and if 30 per cent of what we’ve come up with happens, it will be the best show ever.”
