Should have my Now 100 Hits Forgotten 70's tomorrow as it's shipped from Amazon. Looking forward to it as I'm a 70's man.

If "Buss Down" and "French Kisses" both appear on NOW 105, it will the second time where two artists have both their collaborations on the same NOW but with switched crediting, the first being Mabel and Not3s where both of their collaborations appeared on NOW 99

Plenty of early contenders for the next instalment of the series, but with the run up to Christmas and new year some songs get forgotten and left behind, so I’m just posting them here. Some are yet to peak so maybe some of them will make the cut when Spring arrives;

 

Dua Lipa – Don’t Stop Now

Ed Sheeran feat. Camila Cabello & Cardi B – South Of The Border

Jax Jones & Ella Henderson – This Is Real

Meduza, Becky Hill & Goodboys – Lose Control

Selena Gomez – Lose You To Love Me

Billie Eilish – Everything I Wanted

Lewis Capaldi – Before You Go

Niall Horan – Nice To Meet Ya

Harry Styles – Lights Up

Sam Smith – I Feel Love

Coldplay – Orphans

The Script – The Last Time

James Blunt – Monsters

Bastille feat. London Contemporary Orchestra – Can’t Fight This Feeling

Arizona Zervas – ROXANNE

J Hus – Must Be

Aitch feat. ZieZie – Buss Down

Stormzy feat. Ed Sheeran – Burna Boy

KSI feat. Rick Ross, Lil Baby & S-X – Down Like That

AJ Tracey feat. Mostack And Not3s – Floss

The Weeknd – Heartless

Endor – Pump It Up

CamelPhat & Jen Cooke – Rabbit Hole

Sigma feat. Jack Savoretti – You And Me As One

 

Some of these will get airtime on Top Of The Pops on Christmas Day and New Years Day which might affect how well they do.

They should put Hate Me on NOW 105 for two reasons

 

1. Because it never made it onto NOW 104

2. To honour Juice WRLD

I'd second that

I'd second that

He has a more recent song out so they could include it to honour him

It may also take off following the tragedy!

Now 104's sales are still awful aren't they? Surely they'll pick up the next 2-3 weeks.

Maybe just a little but can't see it getting much more than 60knnext week then after that the Q4 ends!

If they include Roxette on NOW 105 as a tribute to Marie, they should include Listen To Your Heart it Almost Unreal

No disrespect to Juice WRLD but Roxette’s legacy is more noteworthy and compared with the likes of David Bowie and George Michael who each received a posthumous feature in the Now series following their death, Roxette ought to have one too for all they brought to the music industry. Their signature hit It Must Have Been Love is almost certain to be the chosen one.

Roxette will also be far more well known to the typical Now buyer than juice Wrld.

We had It Must Have Been Love on NOW 18 and Joyride on NOW 20 so I’d prefer if they included Listen To Your Heart, Fading Like A Flower or Almost Unreal as they never had an appearance on a NOW

Edited December 11, 20195 yr by Hadji

As we had "Good As Hell" on NOW 104 instead of "Truth Hurts", we might get "Truth Hurts" on NOW 105 as they in the past have included the predecessor on the next volume.

 

Prime examples

 

"Dog Days Are Over" which is on NOW 75 succeeded "You Got The Dirtee Love" which is on NOW 76

"Grace (We All Try)" which is on NOW 98 succeeded "As You Are" which is on NOW 99

"Stop" is on NOW 39, "Viva Forever" is on NOW 40 and "Too Much" is on NOW 41 whereas it should have been "Too Much" on NOW 39, "Stop" on NOW 40 and "Viva Forever" on NOW 41

"You Take Me Up" which is on NOW 3 succeeded "Doctor! Doctor!" which is on NOW 4

Got Now 4 for Christmas and really enjoying it. I’m loving these older Nows!

 

Also picked up Now 104 the other day. It’s not too bad but I’m finding myself increasingly enjoying the second CD much more with these releases. Disc 1 I feel has too many tracks and interchangeable ones at that so I get bored after the first half of it.

I have only brought the old Now Xmas album from 1985/6 but wish I'd started to collect the vinyls as I watch the old totps and most of the tracks I would now know.

If you buy NOW 3 and 4 from Asda, it’s 2 for £12 which is basically £6 each

Are they available in vinyl for Hadji?
