Number Ones is a compilation album of recordings by Swedish pop group ABBA, released by the Universal Music Group in 2006. This album features tracks that were #1 hits in many of the countries where ABBA were successful.

A limited edition included a bonus disc with 12 tracks from ABBA's #1 albums.

In the UK, the track list included the full length version of "Summer Night City" and "Ring Ring", oddly never a big hit in that territory.

In Taiwan, a hidden track follows I Have A Dream. This hidden track, titled ABBA Remix and running for 3.31, is a medley of the choruses of the 18 songs on the CD.
