The Collection: Beverley Knight is the second compilation album by English singer-songwriter Beverley Knight released via Parlophone on 20 July 2009 after Knight's departure from the record label.

The album comprises a mixture of previously released singles, some of which were not available on her Voice - The Best of Beverley Knight album, including her only other top 40 single "Rewind (Find a Way)". The Collection also contains three previously released B-sides, "Weekend Thing", "What If?" and "Special Kinda Cool", unavailable on any other Beverley Knight album. All songs were recorded throughout her eleven-year contract with Parlophone.

It is important to note that the versions of "After You" and "Shape of You" are the original album versions and not those released as singles.
