Platinum & Gold Collection

Platinum & Gold Collection is a series of budget-priced greatest hits compilations for recording artists on the labels of Sony BMG. The series was launched as a Sony BMG counterpart to Universal Music Group's successful 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection series. Most Platinum & Gold Collection albums contain 12 tracks.

The Platinum and Gold Collection is a series of discount-priced greatest hits CDs by bands who have recorded for BMG or its subsidiaries.

The albums are often compiled by the label without the participation or approval of the bands being anthologized, and as a result, the CDs are often boycotted by fans of the bands. One notable example is the Cowboy Junkies anthology.

However, for some older artists, Platinum and Gold Collection CDs may also be the only hits compilations currently available in record stores.

    Platinum Collection

    by: Shadows

    I met a girl once, I thought she was the one for me
    I was so taken by her personality
    I met a girl once, who took my heart and love away
    She looked an angel vision walking through the day
    I took her to parties, bought her everything I could
    I treated her just like a queen
    I told her I loved her, marry her I said I would
    Didn't realize just what a fool I've been
    I met a girl once, she did me wrong behind the back
    Then when I've found out I felt like my heart would crack
    I met a girl once, she taught me what I had to learn
    That if love's cruel, broken hearts are what you learn
    I took her to parties, bought her everything I could
    I treated her just like a queen
    I told her I loved her, marry her I said I would
    Didn't realize just what a fool I've been
    I met a girl, once, she did me wrong behind my back
    Then when I've found out I felt like my heart would crack
    I met a girl, once, she taught me what I had to learn
    That if love's cruel, broken hearts are what you learn
