Number Ones is a greatest hits album by American singer-songwriter Michael Jackson. It was released on November 18, 2003, by Epic Records.
Number Ones was Jackson's first standalone compilation album with Epic Records, after the release of the first disc of HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I in 1995 (and after the re-release of that disc as a single album titled Greatest Hits: HIStory, Volume I in 2001). The album included Jackson's singles that reportedly reached number 1 in charts around the world, hence the album's name. Number Ones also features the last original single released during Jackson's lifetime, "One More Chance", released four days after the release of the album.
One of the best-selling albums of the 21st century, the compilation has sold over 10 million copies worldwide.
