"The Best of Branigan" was released in 1995 and was the first greatest hits collection of singer Laura Branigan that was issued in the United States. This album also marked the end of Branigan's relationship with her record label, Atlantic Records. Only eight of the thirteen tracks on this anthology had charted, although it did include several of her major hit singles, such as "Gloria", "Solitaire", "Self Control", "The Power of Love", and "How Am I Supposed to Live Without You".

Other tracks on this anthology were songs from her previous album, 1993's "Over My Heart", a product overlooked by much of the music industry and the public, which at the time was interested in grunge music.

The album included two new tracks, "Show Me Heaven" and a cover of Donna Summer's "Dim All the Lights", the latter which was released as a single in late spring 1995 and became a Billboard Top 40 Dance hit.

While "Best of Branigan" was the first anthology of Branigan's hits that was released in the United States, the singer had at that point released other greatest hits anthologies in several countries, including South Africa, Japan, and Germany.

As of 2007, when the album was re-released, it has sold 147,000 copies in the U.S. [ [http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/search/google/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1003581299 Ask Billboard ] ]
