Shine Like It Does: The Anthology (1979–1997) is a greatest hits compilation released by Australian rock band INXS on 5 June 2001. It features most of their singles, some remixes, and rare tracks heard for the first time on CD. To date, the album has sold 35,000 copies in the US.

Maxine McCaghy from "The Rough Guide To Rock" satisfyingly concluded, a great double - CD collection of singles and remixes." ^[6] John Heidt of Vintage Guitar (magazine) wrote a positive review for the compilation, he insisted these Australian rockers made perfect pop/rock records that were laced with funk, soul, and R&B. He acknowledged the two discs have all the hits and more." ^[7]
