''PopArt: Pet Shop Boys – The Hits'' is the fourteenth album by the UK electronic music duo Pet Shop Boys. It was released in 2003. ''PopArt'' is a compilation of Pet Shop Boys' top 20 UK singles along with two new tracks, "Miracles" and "Flamboyant" which have subsequently also been singles.
==History==
The most notable exclusion was "Was It Worth It?" (which was included as a brand new song on ''Discography: The Complete Singles Collection)'' because it only peaked at No. 24, while "How Can You Expect to Be Taken Seriously?" (part of a double A-side with the U2 cover) was also omitted.
The album reached number 30 in the UK Albums Chart on original release and re-entered the UK charts in 2009 at No. 18. It kept on selling steadily, and proved a strong seller in other countries (With its best chart position in Norway, peaking at #2). Pet Shop Boys stated on their website they were happy with sales. The weekend after the Pet Shop Boys received the Brit Award for Outstanding Contribution to Popular Music in February 2009, ''PopArt'' re-entered the UK Albums Chart at number 19, advancing to number 18 the week after.
Unlike some "best of" compilations (including the earlier ''Discography: The Complete Singles Collection''), the tracks on the discs are not arranged chronologically, but split into two categories. Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe split the tracks into ones they thought were pure pop music ("Pop") and the ones that they thought were more creative/experimental ("Art").
A special limited edition was released with a third Compact Disc (CD), "Mix", appropriately featuring Tennant and Lowe's favourite remixes from their career.
The album edit of "Heart" was used on ''PopArt'' instead of the single edit. A previously unreleased version of "I Wouldn't Normally Do This Kind of Thing", using the structure of the seven-inch mix but with some elements of the album version, was also used instead of the version that had appeared on the 1993 single release. Several of the other tracks on the album appear in slightly different edits from their original single versions, such as "Suburbia", which for the first time appears in its music video edit on a Pet Shop Boys compilation album, instead of the seven-inch single remix of that song. A similar incident occurred with the Brazilian compilation ''Party'' in 2009. The US version of ''PopArt'' included the single versions of these tracks, but still omits the same tracks as the UK release.
After three years of its release in the rest of the world, ''PopArt'' was finally released in the United States in October 2006. The delay was due to legal problems caused by the fact that since Pet Shop Boys began, they have been with four different record labels in the US: EMI (1985–1995), Atlantic (1996–1998), Sire Records (1999–2001) and Sanctuary Records (2002–2003). The album didn't chart in the US but has sold almost 100,000 copies since its release.
The album was re-issued on 26 November 2007 in the UK as a box set with the corresponding DVD included.
