Beat This! The Best of the Beat (released as Beat This! The Best of the English Beat in the US) is a greatest hits album by British ska/new wave band the Beat, released on 20 November 2000 in Europe by Go-Feet Records and on 11 September 2001 in the US by London-Sire Records.
As well as a different track order, the US version is different from the European release in that the track "Whine and Grine/Stand Down Margaret" (which was from the album Wh'appen) has been replaced with the dub version of "Stand Down Margaret" (which was originally released as a double A-side single with "Best Friend"). The US version is also an enhanced CD that includes exclusive online content and 5 music videos, which are "Doors of Your Heart", "Drowning", "Mirror in the Bathroom", "Save It for Later" and "Too Nice to Talk To".[4]
