The Collection is a compilation album by the British band Ultravox. It was released on 2 November 1984 on the Chrysalis Records label, and was the band's first "greatest hits" collection (though a compilation of their earlier material had been released in 1980). It includes all fourteen of the band's hit singles on Chrysalis from 1980 to 1984, including "Love's Great Adventure", released ahead of the album as a stand-alone single.

The album peaked at number 2 on the UK Album Chart, becoming their highest charting album. It also became their highest selling album, being certified triple platinum by the BPI for sales of over 900,000 copies.

Initial copies of the vinyl album included a limited edition bonus disc entitled The 12" Collection, consisting of three extended remixes and three 12" extended mixes:
