Not bad to be fair, it does seem to be thrown together randomly. I've no idea where disc 1 ends and disc 2 begins so I haven't bothered to guess.

They added a couple of urban tracks, I think they could of got away with Dave's Location rather than MONOPOLY. Not sure why they've put two tracks from Rocket Man on and the random Emeli Sande and Lighthouse Family tracks just gets my laugh.gif At least their at the back of the album out of the way I guess.

Great to see Sigala and double Avicii though smile.gif

Looks like someone gave them a list of songs to put on the album but forgot to mention they weren’t ordered yet

I'd guess Senorita is kicking off Disc 2, which is once again hugely random but at least there are not as many bonus retro tracks this time.

Lighthouse Family is possible even more odd than Rod Stewart on the last one laugh.gif

They must be banking on Senorita being a massive hit, which it's shaping up to be.

48 tracks! Now that's what I call value for Money!

I’m guessing that disc 1 has 25 tracks and disc 2 has 23 tracks

I have just put all the songs on a Spotify playlist, and here's what I found out.
  • CD 1 could possibly have 26 (!) tracks (i.e. from "Old Town Road" to "Señorita"), as it clocks in for a total of 1:18:39. If that is so, it will beat the record for most songs in a CD of a numbered NOW album, currently being held by NOW 102's 25-track first disc.
  • So that also means, Shawn Mendes could join the likes of Oasis (NOW 33, 1996), Katy Perry (NOW 71, 2008), The Saturdays (NOW 72, 2009), Wiley (NOW 83, 2012), Sigala (NOW 94, 2016), and Ariana Grande (NOW 102, 2019) that have both of their songs (as lead artist) on the same disc.
  • Which leaves us with CD 2, with a generous 22 tracks (i.e. from "Hold Me While You Wait" to "I Won't Let the Sun Go Down on Me"), for a total running time of 1:18:25. Well, it makes sense, because the album's second half houses the songs that are 4 minutes or longer in length, without the need of using edits. This also takes into account the 2:11 version of "Yesterday", in contrast to the 90-second one that is the opener to the movie soundtrack.
  • Poor Lewis Capaldi. If what I predicted is true, he'll start out CD 2 again, just like in NOW 102.
  • Lighthouse Family? You mean, the same guys who did that nostalgic, classic track "High" (NOW 39, 1998)? yahoo.gif 'Cause we are gonna be forever, you and me...
Can't wait to listen to them all in full later! rolleyes.gif

I'm annoyed that "I'm So Tired...", "Boasty", "So Am I" and "Spicy" were all omitted considering the first three were major hits and the first two have appeared on other compilations and "Spicy" appeared on the latest NOW spin-off NOW Summer Party 2019. I can understand why "I Don't Care" and "Late Night Feelings" both missed out as Ed won't license his #1 singles and they skipped "Late Night Feelings" in favour of Mark Ronson's latest song

It looks like it's the 'Old Town Road (Remix)' which features Billy Ray Cyrus which is 2:34

Omg yes. i'm so tired..., Boasty and So Am I could definitely have been in place of 70% of the other tracks!

That is highly likely, as it's the version that went to no. 1 in the UK, as well as the one that also opened NOW Summer Party 2019. biggrin.gif

If they had included the solo version, it would have broke the record of shortest song to ever appear on NOW, surpassing Eddie Cochran who’s appearance of C’mon Everybody on NOW 11 was only 1:55

And so it should be. It’s that version what made it a hit. I’ve just noticed, we have two members of the Cyrus family on the album and his last appearance was 80 NOWs ago with ABH

With "White Lines" appearing, they might use the 3:11 radio edit which appears on the millennium edition and 10th anniversary editions of NOW 1984

f*** sake, why have completely random songs from Lighthouses Family but not bother without Dido who’s actually had a semi successful top 3 album???

Looks like I’m not returning to the series yet.
