The Hits & More is a greatest hits album by Melissa Tkautz. The album comes 21 years after her ARIA Award winning, number one single, "Read My Lips" was released.

Promotions

On 9 July 2012, Tkautz released a 1-minute, 30 second promotional video for the album, composed of video clips from throughout her career to the music of "Something About You".

Throughout August, Tkautz performed a number of tracks live on TV in early August 2012, including "Sexy (Is the Word)" on "The Morning Show" on 7 August and "Read My Lips" on "The Late News" on 10 August.

Tkautz toured the album across Australia in late 2012. "A lot of my older tracks are quite poppy and I find this is very much up with the times in terms of what is going on in the clubs," Melissa says.
