Fade to Grey – The Singles Collection is a 1983 compilation album by the British synthpop group Visage. Released as a stop-gap between studio albums whilst the band was experiencing contractual difficulties, the compilation includes all seven of the Visage singles released up to that point (five of them UK Top 40 hits), as well as three non-single tracks. The album reached #38 on the UK Album Chart and was certified Gold by the BPI based on pre-release sales to shops. A limited number of copies of the vinyl album were issued with a free 7" vinyl picture disc of the "Pleasure Boys" single (1982), whereas the cassette version of the album featured remixes of each of the tracks as well as a bonus track, "Der Amboss" (a German language version of "The Anvil").
The album was re-released a decade later as Fade to Grey - The Best of Visage with a similar cover and track listing but with the inclusion of two tracks not featured on the original release: "Love Glove" (one of Visage's last singles from 1984) and the Bassheads/Andy Stevenson remix of "Fade to Grey", which became a minor top 40 hit again in 1993. The only single not included on this compilation was "Beat Boy", the band's final single from 1984.
