The Best of The Jets is the first greatest hits album by Tongan-American family band The Jets, released on July 13, 1990, by MCA Records.
It featured four new songs, including "Special Kinda Love", "Sendin' Out a Message", "Forever In My Life" and "Another You", as well as a compilation of their greatest hits ("Crush on You", "Sendin' All My Love", "You Got It All", "Rocket 2 U", "Cross My Broken Heart" and "Make It Real").
Curiously, this first greatest hits package did not include any tracks from the previous year's Believe album (which featured the hits "You Better Dance", "The Same Love", and "Somebody to Love Me"), while additional hits from other albums, such as "I Do You" and "Private Number" (among others), were included on import versions.
