Styx Greatest Hits is the second Greatest Hits compilation album by Styx. It was released in 1995.

This was released to replace the Styx Classics 14 compilation released by A&M in 1987. It now includes Lady but in a re-recorded version as the song was on Wooden Nickel (which was run by RCA at the time) and wouldn't license A&M/PolyGram the track so Dennis DeYoung and most of the classic lineup (DeYoung, Tommy Shaw, Chuck Panozzo, James Young) plus uncredited session drummer Todd Suchermann (who filled in for John Panozzo due to Panozzo's failing health) reunited to re-record the track at Dennis' home studio The White Room.

The compilation, unlike Styx Classics, features the original album versions of all songs. Come Sail Away is presented here in its full 6:05 version and Miss America is here in its original studio version.
