Overview

The album was Culture Club's second greatest hits compilation. It originally included 16 tracks: 13 singles, 2 songs previously not available on any Culture Club album, and a non-single track. Although it gathers many less successful singles, the compilation omits the major hit "Move Away", what makes From Luxury to Heartache not being represented by any song.

A mid-price version of the album was released in 1998 in Europe by Disky. In 1999 and 2004, Virgin and EMI Gold, respectively, released the album with different artworks, retaining the original track listing.

The compilation reached number 4 in French Compilations Chart in 1992. In 2005, the compilation was certified Silver in the UK by British Phonographic Industry.
