Greatest Hits: Sight + Sound is a two disc compilation album by the band Blondie released in the UK on November 8, 2005. This was the first Blondie hits package to combine the CD and DVD formats. The CD contains the band's greatest hits including their comeback hit "Maria", a UK #1 in 1999, as well as tracks from their latest studio album The Curse of Blondie, a new remix of "In The Flesh" and also the so called mash-up mix of "Rapture" and The Doors' "Riders on the Storm", "Rapture Riders", a top ten hit on the U.S. Hot Dance Club Play chart in 2005. The DVD includes videos of fifteen of the band's greatest hits.

It peaked at number 48 on the UK Album charts and charted for 7 weeks.

The compilation was internationally released as Greatest Hits: Sound & Vision in early 2006.
