The Identity of Muse (Might as well go chronological and not thematical with it, though, the tracks would have to kind of blend together in some way.)

16. Invincible (Black Holes and Revelations, 2006)

17. Knights of Cydonia (Black Holes and Revelations, 2006)

This of course would be imagining a world where the label would actually release a greatest hits collection not containing but one single from the previous record, because "Starlight" got grating fast and "Supermassive Black Hole" was alright but not as awesome as any of the songs on here.

EDIT: And Summers, the current Rob Zombie greatest hits CD is a pretty damn good one as it is. :D

Knights of Cydonia and Invincible were singles. Over here at least.

That's a good tracklist though. I'd maybe swap some songs for "Escape", "Butterflies and Hurricanes" and perhaps some of the Hullabaloo live tracks. I'd still quite happily listen to that.

Yeah, "Starlight" and "Supermassive" I believe were the top smashes over here, though. "Knights" was the first single we got, and I always thought was a wonderful finale track on BH&R, so I thought it'd make sense as the finale track here. I'm also amazed at "Starlight" being the bigger success as "Invincible" is a more powerful song in general.

Doesn't it kind of defeat the purpose of assembling a Best Of album if you're not even going to be selective at all? I mean, really... a three-disc Weezer Greatest Hits with half of the blue album and half of Pinkerton on it? Come on.

Anyway, here's my attempt at The Best of Rilo Kiley, and I'm shooting for one disc.

1. The Frug (Initial Friend EP)

2. 85 (Initial Friend EP)

3. Science vs. Romance (Take-Offs and Landings)

4. Plane Crash in C (Take-Offs and Landings)

5. The Good That Won't Come Out (The Execution of All Things)

6. The Execution of All Things (The Execution of All Things)

7. With Arms Outstretched (The Execution of All Things)

8. It's a Hit (More Adventurous)

9. Portions for Foxes (More Adventurous)

10. More Adventurous (More Adventurous)

11. The Absence of God (More Adventurous)

12. The Moneymaker (Under the Blacklight) (although I'd cut this song in a perfect world...)

13. Silver Lining (Under the Blacklight)

14. Breakin' Up (Under the Blacklight)

15. 15 (Under the Blacklight)

So there's 15 tracks. Ideally I'd include more from the earlier albums, but the last two deserve the distinction of helping them break into the mainstream and thus make more sense on a compilation like this. Then again, ideally, it'd be a five-disc compilation. <_<
