A Symphony of Hits is the ninth album by Australian pop vocal group Human Nature. The album includes reworking of some of their past hits and several new cover versions all with arrangements by Prague Philharmonic Orchestra. Australian superstar Darren Hayes is featured on "When You Say You Love Me", a re-working of the group's 2004 hit which Hayes wrote.[1]

To celebrate the release of the album Human Nature performed the brand new versions of their multi-platinum hits with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra at Sydney Opera House on 12 & 13 December conducted by Guy Noble.[2]

They then performed in February 2009 with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and the West Australian Symphony Orchestra.
