AllMusic[1]

Gold is a double album of greatest hits by Olivia Newton-John released on 14 June 2005. It contains all but one of her solo Billboard Hot 100 hits (excluding "I Need Love") and is the first CD to contain the track "Fool Country" (a B-side to "Magic" and contained in the film Xanadu, but not available on the soundtrack). The album is considered the most thorough of all of Newton-John's many compilation albums.[by whom?]

A different version of the album was released in Australia in conjunction with the Olivia Gold DVD release.
