An inspired choice of opening track to be fair, but among many other questionable choices there’s no way on earth that these could be considered forgotten, for a start.

7. Deacon Blue - Real Gone Kid
13. Shalamar - A Night To Remember
3. Thompson Twins - Hold Me Now
7. The Christians - Harvest For The World
20. Ashford & Simpson - Solid
1. Dee C Lee - See The Day
2. The Housemartins - Caravan Of Love
10. Toni Basil - Mickey
12. Bucks Fizz - The Land Of Make Believe
18. Sonia - You'll Never Stop Me Loving You
2. Black - Wonderful Life
9. The Pointer Sisters - Jump (For My Love)
1. Fairground Attraction - Perfect
8. Paula Abdul - Straight Up
19. Lionel Richie - Stuck On You

Having said that, it’s more inspired than the usual 80s albums tracklists and I’d be interested to see a Forgotton 90s edition in the future.

But to me a lot of this tracklisting just feels like leftover quite big hits that didn’t fit onto Now 100 Hits: 80s, rather than truly forgotten hits.

A tracklisting of properly forgotten singles or tracks that didn’t even go top 40 would have been interesting, but I guess nobody would have bought it.

How the hell is "Straight Up" forgotten? I hear it all the time. Plus, "Mickey" has been covered to death, everybody knows that song.

Do you think it'd be too jarring to have KPop appear on NOW 3? BTS and BLACKPINK are quite big on the album and streaming scene at the moment, and seeing them on NOW 103 would make a lot of sense and tap into another genre/market. I'd love it! Especially since both are great songs.

I'd also love to see Taylor Swift/Brandon Urie on there, but I very much doubt it will. Taylor in't the most consistent artist on the NOWs, and now that she's on another label it may be even harder to get licensing.

I know. Shame it never appeared on HITS 56 as it was released by Sony or NOW 55 even. At least Def Leppard are finally on there

I'm sure some people would have something to say about Nickelback on a 'classic rock' compilation laugh.gif

Also - having The Stone Roses but not Oasis is a bit strange, especially as Oasis have been on Now compilations.
