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??Looks like Now 120 was the last one - surprisingly recent!Yeah, not too keen on this release. It's very weak, and it's starting to feel like one person had decided this tracklist based on their own personal taste, crossed with anything with no licensing issues. Cheap and cheerful, so they say.Really on the fence about purchasing the numbered volumes at this moment in time. I don't really enjoy the new releases, and have been enjoying the Yearbooks far more. It also feels like they're holding back so that they actually have something for the summer release.
15 hours ago15 hr So glad Now 123 is happening, I was getting really worried. It’s definitely missing a good few hits but some of them will no doubt appear on the next volume.
14 hours ago14 hr I’ll get this as a completist but I’m not rushing to buy it. They should just kill this series off now.
13 hours ago13 hr Well i wasn't expecting much to be honest, could be the worst numbered NOW ever. I'm more excited for the yearbooks.And who are Role Model? lolDecember 10 - Simon Cowell's latest flop band from a netflix only showNo big hitsOlivia, Sienna, Jessie Ware, Westlife, Robbie Williams, Ella Langley, Cat Burns, Lana Del Rey good to see those make itThose are the ones i'll give my thumbs up too.

13 hours ago13 hr Author The write up is absolutely ridiculous..."40 stellar tracks""incredible moments""Unforgettable" tracks that I've already forgotten."the huge collaboration" from Miles & Niall that failed to make a real splash in the charts.The final song choice seems vindictive... this is the day Now dies. RIP.
13 hours ago13 hr The fillers are better than on the previous parts, but there has to be some more hits - Bella Kay, Sombr, Harry Styles, Dave.

And fewer than 10 overall. Seriously bad.Agreed, but there are actually two top-ten hits on Disc 2 - 'Die On This Hill' and 'The Great Divide'.
