Greatest Hits is the first greatest hits compilation of American country music artist Mark Wills. Released in 2002 on Mercury Nashville Records, it features the greatest hits from his first three studio albums: 1996's Mark Wills, 1998's Wish You Were Here, and 2000's Permanently; no songs are included from Loving Every Minute, his fourth album.

Two new tracks were also recorded for this compilation, both released as singles: "19 Somethin'" and "When You Think of Me". The former became his second Number One hit on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts, holding that position for six weeks; "When You Think of Me" peaked at #28 on the same chart.

The album itself peaked at #16 on the Billboard Top Country Albums charts and #140 on The Billboard 200.
