Forever Delayed is a greatest hits album by the Manic Street Preachers, released in 2002.

Around the time this album was released, many fans criticized the band and claimed that the compilation only contained the band's more successful chart songs. Fans also reacted against the way the band left out such fan favorites as "Slash 'N' Burn", "Stay Beautiful", and "Roses In The Hospital" (where the phrase "forever delayed" was first heard) as well as containing only one song from their critically acclaimed album The Holy Bible. Several songs were edited for length so that more tracks could fit onto the CD. The album featured two new songs; the single "There By The Grace Of God" and "Door To The River".

The album entered the UK Album Chart at #4.
