Released in 2000 as a Japanese-only compilation, In Vision may appear to be yet another variation on the well-worn Greatest Hits line-up, but it was, in fact, a collection of Queen songs that had been used in TV and films in Japan. (Hence the grammatically odd title.) While it's not essential for the tracks included, the sound has been remastered to an envious degree (as on most Japanese reissues), so, for audiophiles, it's something of a dream come true.

More remarkably, the album hit #1 in Japan, with 120,000 copies being sold in the first two weeks. The record company had a license to produce only 150,000 units total, making this compilation quite rare. A sister album, In Vision 2008, was released in 2008.
