From Wikipedia:

Quite certain it will be heartland rock and maybe some country then (expect Kid Rock - All Summer Long to appear)

Sounds too heterosexual for me!

I would replace these songs

 

Olly Murs & Louisa Johnson - Unpredictable

Katy Perry featuring Migos - Bon Appétit

Nick Jonas featuring Anne-Marie & Mike Posner - Remember I Told You

Hailee Steinfeld - Most Girls

NEIKED featuring MIMI - Call Me

RAYE - The Line

Fifth Harmony featuring Gucci Mane - Down

JP Cooper - Passport Home

Take That - Giants

 

With these songs

 

Ed Sheeran - Shape Of You

Ed Sheeran - Galway Girl

Katy Perry featuring Nicki Minaj - Swish Swish

Major Lazer featuring Travis Scott, Camila Cabello & Quavo - Know No Better

ALMA - Chasing Highs

Liam Gallagher - Wall Of Glass

Paramore - Hard Times

ZAYN featuring PARTYNEXTDOOR - Still Got Time

Charlie Puth - Attention

 

I agree to most of this, but I think Still Got Time will be super old (and super underperforming) by the time of release. Same goes for Take That too though.

 

Raye, Neiked, and Haillee all have decent chances of chart success so it makes sense for them to be on here, although not at the expense of Ed/Major Lazer/Charlie to be fair.

 

Didn't Bon Appetit chart higher than Swish Swish though? SS might make it to Now 98 providing Katy doesn't chart higher with a newer single but I wouldn't put my money on it. Good song but unfortunate chart flop

"Bon Appétit" only charted one place higher than "Swish Swish" so not much of a difference. "Save As Draft" has been announced as the next single from "Witness" which means that if it charts higher, we will have SAD on NOW 98 instead of SS

Bon Appetit charted 3 places higher than Swish Swish

Considering there's quite a few flops on NOW 97, I'm surprised they didn't include Stargate as one of them seeing as he's on NOW Summer Party 2017

"Sign Of The Times" and "Want You Back" are the only songs on the album which have been edited. Every other song has been left untouched

Save as Draft is currently only an adult radio single in America. Swish Swish is still a single in the UK and it's impact date isn't until August, so it'll probably be on the next one.

NOW Old Skool is the next spin-off to be released and it's due for release on 4th August but no tracklist has been announced yet

'Old Skool' strongly suggests it will contain 80s/90s/early 00s hip hop to me, but I may be wrong.

 

Btw its fun to guess what genre these ambiguously titled Now spin offs are before the tracklist is released.

 

No. His name is spelt different and mine is my last name. I grew up around NOW albums. Everyone in my family was buying them and all of a sudden they stopped collecting them so I decided to carry on collecting them

 

You have every Now album plus the spin offs? How much room must that take up in your house! Do you collect other compilation albums, like the Ministry Of Sound ones?

I only download the MOS albums because I don't like the songs joining onto each other and the whole NOW collection doesn't take up as much space as you'd think

Love that cover. I hope it's a nice selection and not just a mix of the older songs that appear on other NOWs.

Here's an extremely early prediction for some tracks for Now 98, which are due to impact very soon.

 

Taking out of the picture any Ed Sheeran tracks we may wish to see, here's what I'd like to see feature upon successful chart peak;

DJ Khaled feat. Rihanna & Bryson Tiller – Wild Thoughts

Bruno Mars vs. David Guetta – Versace On The Floor

Alma – Chasing Highs

Dua Lipa – New Rules

Ke$ha – Praying

Sigrid – Plot Twist

Miley Cyrus – Inspired

Selena Gomez – Fetish

Zedd & Liam Payne – Get Low

Demi Lovato – Sorry Not Sorry

Martin Solveig feat. Alma – All Stars

It should be noted most of these songs will be long forgotten by the next release date. :lol:

That Miley song isn't getting a commercial push I don't think. Can't see the Sigrid song doing anything either, other than that spot on.

2004 is now "old-school"? God I'm old.

2004 is now "old-school"? God I'm old.

It even has a song from 2005 ("Get Right")

That's actually a pretty good track list.

 

I may purchase it.

WOW! That's actually really good! Why is Get Right the remixed version and not the legendary album version?!

It is the album version. Sorry my mistake
