, released in October 2002. The album included three singles which had never appeared on earlier albums ("Motown Junk
," "Suicide Is Painless
," and "The Masses Against the Classes
"), the latter being one of the band's two UK #1 hits, along with "If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next
." Several songs were edited for length ("Motorcycle Emptiness

," and "The Everlasting
") so that more tracks could fit onto the CD (though not listed as edits in the liner notes). The album entered the UK Album Chart at #4.
" and "Door to the River." "Door to the River" was originally recorded in the sessions for the Know Your Enemy
album, but the band deemed the song too unfitting to the album's general style. "There By the Grace of God" could be seen as a foreshadowing of what followed the hits compilation, as it features a more electronic/keyboard-heavy style that would eventually be the main style of the band's next studio album, Lifeblood
.
The title of Forever Delayed is lifted from the lyrics of their song "Roses in the Hospital
" (which does not feature on the CD album). A song called "4 Ever Delayed" was recorded for inclusion but ended up not being included. Plans of releasing it as part of a new 2 Disc edition of the compilation and as CD single were then toyed with but never surfaced. It eventually wound up on the band's following B-sides and rarities compilation Lipstick Traces (A Secret History of Manic Street Preachers) in 2003. The title of the greatest hits package had also been planned for several years previous, Nicky Wire
