March 24Mar 24 The Now insider mole on the Facebook group has hinted that Now 123 is coming this week, phew! Unless it's a very short lead time they must have pushed it further back in April for some reason.

I also hope Bella Kay is track 1 as it might help push her to number 1 Edited March 24Mar 24 by Hadji

March 24Mar 24 Could do with more songs and no RAYE or Bruno Mars and according to hmv, it’s being released on 17th April Edited March 24Mar 24 by Hadji
March 24Mar 24 Oh dear, maybe they should have reduced it to two a year, that is considerably worse than I'd have expected 🥲I don't like being negative for the sake of it but only 40 songs, no No.1s, a double from December 10 lol (yet they are not mentioned on the cover artwork) who have never breached the top 40?And is that just one top ten hit on Disc 2? And fewer than 10 overall. Seriously bad.

Will post a playlist shortly.Cheers, was gonna make it myself but I can't be bothered tbh!There are still about 20 songs I like here, but yes it does look a bit thin in terms of actual hits.

March 24Mar 24 I also noticed that Harry is the only living 1D member who doesn’t appear on this album

For whatever reason more and more artists seem to not be licensing to Now as each edition passes, mostly big names.
March 24Mar 24 Not every song that doesn’t appear is due to licensing issues. Some of the times, Now choose not to include them ie. Alex Warren, Bruno Mars, RAYE

March 24Mar 24 Let's see what turns up on Bravo Hits 133, the tracklist for that should be out in a few weeks. The only songs Bravo Hits 132 had that Now have missed (that weren't local German hits) were Guetta's Gone Gone Gone and Bandaids by Katy Perry.RAYE may have chosen to hold back her other songs until the album is out.Not sure what the situation is with Bruno as he hasn't released anything as a lead artist for a long time (his collabs were on different labels).

If Now 124 is announced on 30th June and released on 24th July or announced on 7th July and released on 31st July, that means they’ve gone back to announcing numbered Now’s just over 3 weeks before the release date. The last time they did this was in 2022 when Now 113 was announced on 26th October and released on 18th November Edited March 24Mar 24 by Hadji
March 24Mar 24 Author Also, why include the version of Stateside without Zara? That's what made it the hit it became??I also am baffled about sombr snubbing after missing the last volume but appearing with two hits the time before. The double appearances for December 10, Lewis Capaldi and even Olivia Dean (with a non-single) just shows how unbalanced this whole series has become.Does anyone even know what the last volume was to NOT include a double appearance by the same artist??
