http://dbpedia.org/resource/Hits_8 an entity of type: Thing
Hits 8 is a 33-track compilation album released in the summer of 1988 by CBS, WEA and BMG Records in the UK. It was released as a double LP, MC and CD. Also known as The Hits Album 8, the compilation was successful and reached #2 in the UK Albums Chart (held off by its rival album Now 12) and achieved a Platinum BPI award. Several songs are given an early fade, possibly in an attempt to reduce the overall running time to around 60 minutes per disc. The Desireless track "Voyage Voyage" is the PWL remix, and had previously appeared in its original mix on Hits 7.

A video selection, The Hits Video 8, was also released on VHS by RCA/Columbia Pictures International Video. This contained a selection of 14 tracks, all of which appear on the album. Hits 8 features four songs which reached number one on the UK Singles Chart: "I Owe You Nothing", "Perfect", "Don't Turn Around" and "Theme from S-Express". The album was the 44th biggest selling album of 1988 which constituted a noticeable drop in sales from the previous volumes of The Hits Album.
