"Stock Aitken Waterman Gold" is a compilation album released in 2005 by Sony BMG, PWL Records and EBUL. The triple CD collection brings together the biggest hits of British producers Stock Aitken Waterman with the tracks featured on the album originally released between 1984 and 1991, the trio's most successful era. The collection contained the standard radio edits of the tracklisting, with extended mixes, rarities and a megamix saved entirely for the third disc.

Gold contained nine UK #1 hits, and a further two US #1's.

A "Bonus Track" can be found at the end of the second disc: Mandy Smith's original recording of Kylie Minogue's second international release "Got to Be Certain", apparently unearthed from the PWL vaults.
