Maybe they are hoping people will pick them up together if they are racked up next to each other.

I seem to recall the same thing happening in 2021 with Now 110 and Now That's What I Call A Massive Party.

    Not sure if anybody would be interested in these but I’ve made fanmade versions of Now 10-19 with the familiar Now artwork, taken from the US editions, including notable omissions. Here is my version

    Here's my Now 16, the last of three 1989 editions and the last volume of the 80s. Due to the number of omissions included, quite a large number of tracks from the original Now 16 I have taken off. I w

    I think this is a good edition, hardly any top tens missing from the period. It’s a shame Golden isn’t there but it’s too huge still I suppose or Netflix just aren’t offering it for licensing at all.

If I went to the shops to buy both but only had enough money for one of them, I’ll obviously choose Now 122

The only compilation I own that has the Pitbull version is Bravo The Hits 2011 from Germany.

It's a shame because it's a much stronger song with Pitbull, his raps in it are very quotable and memorable. It sounds rather empty without him in my opinion.

The Pitbull version also appears on NOW 39 (US). As does the B.o.B version of Price Tag.

It is odd that in the UK the collabs hit a bit of a snag for licensing.

Yeah it is like Sia - Cheap Thrills without Sean Paul, you miss the 'more than diamonds more than gold' in the chorus

I also remember Now 100 Hits The Legends and Now 100 Hits 60s No.1s being released on the same day as Now 107 but to be fair on that one, Now 107 was pushed back a week for some unknown reason

I really wish the logo’s on the Now’s were always coloured like they used to be pre-Now 100. I miss the old font too😕

Now 105 was the only one that was coloured. Bring back the colours and go back to the original font

Hopefully one day they will. When you look at Now 60-99 especially the coloured logos were so striking. The new font worked for Now 101 with the space theme but when it appeared again on Now 102 I was disappointed.

With the Now 101 logo, Now was written with the original font and 101 was written with the new font. What is the name of the new font? I know the original font was arial

Thanks for pointing that out, I never actually realised that before which makes the new font even more random. It's like they saw it on Now 101 and decided that's how they wanted the artworks to look like from now on, which I think was a bad idea. As for the new font I'm not sure what it actually is.

I've also came up with some ideas of what Now 102-122's logo's colours could have been with the old font if they hadn't decided to keep them all white (with the exception of Now 105 and Now 119)

Now 102 - Pink

Now 103 - Green

Now 104 - White

Now 106 - Orange

Now 107 - Dark Green

Now 108 - Yellow

Now 109 - Red

Now 110 - Light Pink

Now 111 - Red

Now 112 - Yellow

Now 113 - Gold

Now 114 - Blue

Now 115 - Yellow

Now 116 - Light Blue (which it kind of is already)

Now 117 - Pink

Now 118 - Yellow

Now 120 - Red

Now 121 - Red

Now 122 - Purple

If they put Lily Allen on Now 123, I reckon they’ll skip Pussy Palace for the next single due to the title

They didn't have a problem putting WAP on one of their volumes not very long ago. "P Palace" may be an unfortunate alternative to list potentially, but you are probably right about them looking to see how well it does first.

Besides Pussy Palace, West End Girl and Madeline are also on course for top 20 but seeing as Madeline has just been playlisted by radio 1, they’ll more likely include that on Now 123 and skip Pussy Palace

I’d also add Skye Newman to the list. If they include her, they’ll use the clean title U & UF. As for Lily Allen as I said before, they’ll more likely use Madeline if they include her

Am seeing very mixed reviews for the album. Some say best thing since sliced bread but some say it's awful with bad production too.

Well, it has 16 positive reviews, 1 mixed/neutral and 0 negative reviews on Metacritic.

Most I saw were on Facebook.

Not sure if anyone would be interested in this but I made my own version of Now 63 as I was never happy with the tracklisting on the original. I have also done my own Now 59 too.tkjfsrxs.pngpage01.jpg

Just put Now 122 on my cd rack and noticed the text on the spine looks different to the others, anyone else noticed this or is it just my copy?
