Quiet Heart

Quiet Heart: The Best of the Go-Betweens is a compilation album by Australian alternative rock band, the Go-Betweens. It peaked at No. 51 on the ARIA Albums, No. 48 on the ARIA Physical Albums, and No. 15 on the ARIA Australian Artists Albums charts. Ian Wallace of Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) described how, "[it] is the first collection that spans the band's entire recorded output... A second disc features a live recording from 1987."

The tracks were selected by original band members Robert Forster, Lindy Morrison, Robert Vickers and Amanda Brown after a "long and arduous process." Unlike previous compilations, the tracks covered their entire career including the reformation years – critics were split on whether the later era songs seemed out of place,  but all appreciated how the tracks flowed especially the "conscious sequencing" contrasting early singles with latter reformation era tracks.
