Messages: Greatest Hits is a compilation album by Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD) and features the band's most successful songs accompanied by a DVD of all the bands' music videos.

It is the first time that all of the promo videos have been released on DVD. "Joan of Arc" had no promo video filmed at the time, so an appearance on the UK music show Top of the Pops has been added to the DVD instead. "Hold You" was considered as the second single of Crush and a promo video was made, but the single was never released.
