That is THE question, along with How do you know what songs are considered “the very best”?
Just for example, I remember local radios played some B sides of Donna Summer singles much more than the actual single. Like Winter Melody(side B) much more than Spring Affair (the official single). But none of those two were included in
On the Radio: Greatest Hits Volumes I & II.
And talking about “the best”, I was checking the US 2002 release and UK 2009 re-release of “The Very Best Of”, they did include ALAYF, NQA, Skies the Limit and Paper Doll.
And 50 Years – Don't Stop is a compilation album that seems more like a box set than a GH (there’s a difference) cause they did included Save Me, Peacekeeper, Love Shines, but... no BTM songs of Rick or Billy.
