Random I know, but I’m getting my ideation ‘gears’ back into motion following the Summer break (it’s absolutely true that the best way to have brilliant ideas is to have lots of ideas).

Brilliant Idea #36 is a title for a debut album. Greatest Hit.

Before you think, “how stupid”, here’s the genius;

Top selling albums in the UK from the 90’s

What’s the story, morning glory, Oasis

Stars, Simply Red

Spice, Spice Girls

Talk on Corners, The Corrs

Jagged lIttle Pill, Alanis Morisette

Urban Hymns, The Verve

Now tell me that those albums weren’t actually the artists’ Greatest hits!

Top selling albums of to naughties

Back to Bedlam, James Blunt

No Angel, Dido

White Ladder, David Gray

Scissor Sisters, Scissor Sisters

Hopes and Fears, Keane

Ditto, tell me, honestly, whether these artists released anything else after these albums to surpassed them. In other words, their debut album was their greatest hit.

So, why not just admit it, the first album is probably going to be their greatest hit. So call the album Greatest Hit.

Brilliant.
