Love Enhanced Single Collection (stylized as LOVE ENHANCED ♥ single collection) is the second greatest hits album by Japanese singer Namie Amuro. It was released on March 13, 2002, through Avex Trax. This was Amuro's first greatest hits album in about four years, since 181920. It was also her first greatest hits album since her return to the music scene. Although the album is labeled as a "singles collection," nearly all of the songs on the album have been re-recorded, re-mixed, or re-arranged, all of which remain exclusive to this album's release. In addition, only "Lovin' It" was recorded as a single take. The album also contains the last of the work she created with her longtime creative partner Tetsuya Komuro.
Commercially, Love Enhanced Single Collection was only moderately successful. The album peaked at number three on the Oricon Albums Chart and sold over 300,000 copies nationwide, receiving a platinum certification from the Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ). However, its sales were only a fraction of its predecessor 181920, which went on to sell more than two million copies nationwide. Amuro ultimately decided to not embark on a concert tour to promote the album.
