AND! The US Now team are also reaching a milestone. 20 years ago their first volume NOW 1 was released via Tele-marketing!

 

They're currently running a poll on facebook for people to pick their favourite songs/artists that appeared over the last 66 volumes.

 

I’m hoping that tracks 1, 2 and 10 appear on NOW 100 and at least we know that Migos license their tracks to compilations which means their Drake collab could appear on NOW 100 if it becomes a hit

Edited April 17, 20187 yr by Hadji

‘No Tears Left To Cry’ and ‘One Kiss’ are big contenders for song #1.

Just putting this out there now that there needs to be an Avicii tribute on Now 100.

 

Personally, I’d go for a song that’s not featured in the series before, and my choice would be Without You but my second choice would be Silouettes.

 

Any other suggestions?

Without You would be a touching tribute even though it’s not one of his bigger songs (in the UK). I think Wake Me Up or Levels are more likely considering their popularity and impact but I just hope he’s there at all. The Cranberries should’ve been on Now 99 over Oasis but Now likes to make odd decisions when it comes to artist tributes :(

I don’t think they’ll include “Wake Me Up” or “Levels” as they’ve both previously appeared. If they were to include him, it would probably be “Without You”

Winners of the competition on Good Morning Britain were in Abbey Road studios yesterday recording their track for Now 100.

 

It’s by a group called MU4 and they appear to be 3 girls and a guy.

 

Not sure what to expect but it’s likely to be a pop song but will it trouble the charts I wonder. Somehow I doubt it. :rolleyes:

Does anyone know what this Now 100 book is about? Out in October.

How utterly shocking.

That's the most horrific album, I've ever seen. Not even joking! Lmao :/

 

Could they have not wasted money on this and just done one of those NOW Playlists for it instead? Like they did for Now Cheese etc..

 

Poor Embrace, Ant & Dec, 4-4-2 & Infernal.

That's rubbish! Football songs aren't even hard to license!

Call it a despicable attempt at cashing in on the world cup and releasing at least one volume this year with Queen as track 1.

And towards the end of June, they’ll do something like NOW Summer 2018 with all of this years hits and maybe a few tracks which will be on NOW 100

Yawn! Same Rock songs, different name.

 

Been thinking of some of the songs I'd love to see on NOW 100, even though they weren't big hits and/or flops.

 

Taylor Swift - Delicate Would be nice. We somehow managed to get ...Ready for It? and I really don't enjoy "End Game"

Kylie - Stop Me from Falling Maybe she could be at the bottom of Disc 2, but I think she needs to be on NOW 100 just because she's been a big staple of the NOWs since NOW 11!!

Troye Sivan - Bloom/My My My! My My My! might be a bit old, but Bloom would be nice to see on there. Put in the section with Grande and Swift for the LGBT friendly mood pop section

Christina Aguilera - Accelerate NEVER going to happen. But I can dream

 

Can't think of any others at the moment. But I'd love to see Rita Ora and friends on there with girls. Give Charli another appearance. The Middle, No Tears Left To Cry, One Kiss, 2002, In My Blood/Lost in Japan, This is Me, and Flames are bound to be on NOW 100 as well - which I am down for. :wub:

It concerns me somewhat that we are only really two months away from the release of the prestigious 100th volume and there’s no sign of any commemorative release to mark the occasion with. You’d think something would be in the works but a little taster as to what it is would be nice.

 

Of course, what we all really want is to see the original 10 volumes get re-released on CD.
