Where this album fits

Career context
By the time 'Greatest Hits' was released in January 2005, Blondie had experienced a notable resurgence, following their reunion in 1999. This compilation came nearly two decades after their last studio album, 'No Exit,' and served as both a celebration of their past hits and an introduction to a new generation of listeners.
