"The Best of Top of the Pops '84" is a 1984 sound-alike album by the Top of the Poppers. Although it looks like a compilation, each track was recorded especially for the album, unlike previous "Best-ofs" by The Top of the Poppers, which contained tracks recorded throughout the year. The album was a commercial failure, as albums featuring the original artists had become cheaper. Today the album is collectable, largely due to its rarity. The album has since been re-released on iTunes.
