Released on 28 October 1991, Greatest Hits II continued from where its predecessor left off a decade earlier, covering Queen’s international single hits from Under Pressure in 1981 to The Show Must Go On in 1991 - released just weeks before Freddie’s passing in late November. The 17 tracks were universal, with no territorial variations as with the first Greatest Hits compilation.
Greatest Hits II reached No 1 on the UK Albums Chart and is the tenth best-selling album in UK Chart history, with sales exceeding 4 million. Hits II was a double album, whereas the initial Hits collection was a single disc, and to date it has sold over 19 million copies worldwide.
