The glam one sounds interesting but of course will miss out one huge glam srtist.

And also, they still haven’t revealed the tracklist for each one yet

NOW 107 now can brag having 6 UK number ones on it now, thanks to Sweet Melody finally climbing to the top spot. It's what they truly deserve.

 

I wonder if NOW 108 will be arriving on time this year or pushed back due to covid situations.

It should go ahead with its 26th March release seeing as lockdown is meant to be ending on 15th February

I think with such low album sales at present that they should just have two this year. Maybe May and November.

I don’t want it to be like it was from 1985-1987, 1990 and 1991. I’m waiting for July where I can complete my numbered NOW collection on CD

Why does it go 80’s, 70’s, 60’s then 90’s? :mellow:

I doubt I’ll bother with that, mostly extremely predictable choices. It’s a shame if the 100 Hits series stops here, why not add a 00s disc too?

I was thinking the exact same thing. Why not do a 5th disc with 00s and rename it NOW 100 Hits Decades Of Love

00s never get any love. They haven’t done a 100 hits one for that era at all. I really wanted a forgotten 00s after the 90s one was so good.

Won't bother with that but am interested in the Now 70's Glam one.

Ok I know I do this all the time, but I’m just going to post it anyway, here’s an incomplete list of tracks I would expect or like to see feature on the next instalment which is Now 108;

 

1. Miley Cyrus – Midnight Sky

2. Ariana Grande – 34+35

3. The Kid LAROI – WITHOUT YOU

4. Olivia Rodrigo – drivers license

5. Billie Eilish – Therefore I Am

6. Justin Bieber feat. Chance The Rapper – Holy

7. 24kGoldn & DaBaby – Coco

8. Lil Nas X – Holiday

9. Jason Derulo & Nuka – Love Not War (The Tampa Beat)

10. Shane Dodd – Get Out My Head

11. Nathan Dawe & Little Mix – No Time For Tears

12. Harry Styles – Golden

13. Justin Bieber – Anyone

14. SZA – Good Days

15. Miley Cyrus feat. Dua Lipa – Prisoner

16. RAYE & Rudimental – Regardless

17. Rina Sawayama – LUCID

18. Tiësto – The Business

19. HVME – Goosebumps

20. Rudimental feat. MORGAN, Digga D & TIKE – Be The One

21. The Weeknd – Save Your Tears

22. Shawn Mendes & Justin Bieber – Monster

23. Liam Gallagher – All You’re Dreaming Of

24. Becky Hill – Forever Young

25. Celeste – A Little Love

 

Purposely ignoring Ed Sheeran, who will deliberately not permit his upcoming album track to feature until it is months old and forgotten, or not at all.

 

As you can see there is still plenty of room in the coming winter months and early Spring for more hits to feature on a whole second disc. This is always the part I enjoy is seeing what comes out in the coming weeks that could be a tracklisting contender!

Hi there, fellow Buzzjack NOW fans! Wishing you all the best this 2021!

 

The US NOW team has just released the cover art and track list for their Q1 release, NOW That's What I Call Music! Vol. 77, which will be out on Friday, 29 January 2021. The cover art, I should say, is a glorified and in my opinion, a more colourfully detailed take of the British NOW 104 (Nov 2019) cover art.

 

 

Here are the songs that will appear on US NOW 77:

01. 24kGoldn feat. iann dior - "Mood"

02. Ariana Grande - "positions"

03. Billie Eilish - "Therefore I Am"

04. Justin Bieber feat. Chance the Rapper - "Holy"

05. Shawn Mendes - "Wonder"

06. Sam Smith - "Diamonds"

07. BLACKPINK & Selena Gomez - "Ice Cream"

08. Joel Corry feat. MNEK - "Head & Heart"

09. Dua Lipa feat. DaBaby - "Levitating"

10. Bebe Rexha feat. Doja Cat - "Baby I'm Jealous"

11. Chris Brown feat. Young Thug - "Go Crazy"

12. Pop Smoke - "What You Know Bout Love"

13. Juice WRLD - "Wishing Well"

14. Ritt Momney - "Put Your Records On"

15. Tate McRae - "you broke me first"

16. Zoe Wees - "Control"

NOW What's Next Bonus Tracks

17. Jordan Suaste - "Body"

18. Deacon feat. Loren Gray - "Love for the Summer"

19. renforshort - "I drive me mad"

20. Salem Ilese - "mad at disney"

21. WhoHeem - "Let's Link"

 

The track list is very very good. The NOW guys in the US are kicking of the year on a good note.

 

Seven songs previously appeared on UK's NOW 107 (Nov 2020), and one song, "Head & Heart", also appeared on NOW 106 (July 2020). From being a NOW What's Next track on the US NOW 75 (Aug 2020), "Control" by Zoe Wees has been given an upgrade to the main 16 this time around.

 

Speaking of "Head & Heart", I previously hoped that it would appear on the previous NOW 76 (Nov 2020). Thankfully the duo made it here! Pamparampampam-pampamparam... :dance:

 

The obligatory country song or two in the main tracks can't be found here this time. It's the first time this has happened since NOW 72 (Nov 2019), as I'm not really counting Kane Brown's guest vocals on "One Thing Right" by Marshmello, which I am counting as from the EDM genre. But if you want to be a little more technical, NOW 68 (Nov 2018) was the last time the country genre was shunned out - no, Lauren Daigle and her song "You Say" is *not* country, but CCM (Contemporary Christian Music).

 

Also... BLACKPINK IN YOUR AREA! :cheer: I honestly got so hyped up when I saw the group's name on the list. The K-pop girl group, consisting of Jennie, Lisa, Rosé and Jisoo, is the second Korean music act to appear on a US NOW album after their former YG Entertainment (and Interscope) labelmate PSY and his monster hit, "Gangnam Style" on NOW 44 (Nov 2012). Quite comfortable for the NOW team to include a song from them that is predominantly English (with a few Korean rap lines from Lisa). They're not BTS, but I do believe the girls deserve their place here.

 

Ritt Momney's cover version of Corinne Bailey Rae's "Put Your Records On" makes its way here. The original song previously appeared on the American NOW 24 (March 2007) and British NOW 63 (April 2006). I am yet to be accustomed to the new version, but I believe the guy also deserves some credit for his re-imagining of this wonderful noughties classic. Special mention as well to Salem Ilese, whose rant to Mickey and friends, made it here as a What's Next artist; "mad at disney" has a minor popularity here in my country.

 

Notable omissions: T-Swift from her Evermore era (probably next album), Harry Styles (again), BTS (as mentioned)

 

P.S. I think I also love NOW 107, and I think it may just be the best numbered UK NOW of 2020. I'll tell you why in my next post.

A Eurovision fan must have had a hand in compiling this - five entries on here!

 

Again though, I think this must be confirmation of the new 4-disc format and that 100 Hits is no more. I don’t mind as long as they keep some of the more creative themes, like the ‘Forgotten’ albums, which actually sold really well!

That's not a bad tracklist actually.

The NOW 77 track listing is okay.

NOW Decades of Love is fantastic

And I don't know much about 70s Pop, but I know quite a few on there. Very excited about all three of these.

Now That’s What I Call Country due for release on 19th February which is a 4 disc edition. I think they’ve reverted back to the previous format but with 4 discs instead of 3. I prefer the 100 hits series

Hmm, there's been one before as I remember my daughter's boyfriend buying me it at Xmas 2017, before she passed away in the coming April. So late 2017. Guess it'll be similar, mix of classic and new country.
