Buster: The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack is the soundtrack for the 1988 British film Buster. The album is essentially a collection of oldies, tucked in between two Phil Collins songs that were recorded for the film, in which he starred. "Two Hearts" was specially written for the film, and "A Groovy Kind of Love" was a remake of a song taken to #2 in the UK singles charts in 1965 by The Mindbenders. Both were released as singles, and topped The Billboard 100 chart, with "A Groovy Kind of Love" also reaching #1 in the UK. Other new songs include Collins' "Big Noise" and The Four Tops' "Loco in Acapulco", co-written by Collins.
"Two Hearts" and "A Groovy Kind of Love" were not released on a solo Phil Collins album until 1998's ...Hits; however, live versions appeared on his Serious Hits... Live! album in 1990.
