Not gonna lie, but the ad looks absolutely TERRIBLE! Logo isn't animated, and there's no video clip of 'Choosin' Texas'!

The only good thing about the advert is that it’s back to 30 seconds and I hope it stays that way for the rest of the numbered series

Yeah, that I can give a plus, as well as the mention of featured artists for the first time since 55 (?). But it still could've been better.

added a bit more

By not including certain albums of theirs as downloads is also denting the sales of their albums. Extra 1991 would’ve got higher than number 5 in the compilation chart if it was available to download

I know we're thinking about 70s and 90s yearbooks, but, let's not forget the 60s yearbooks, with only two volumes left. I'm gonna predict Volume 3 will focus on the years 1965-1967.

I’m hoping their next announcement is either yearbook 60s volume 3 or the next vault but I’m hoping more the latter

No release date but vault 1985 will be the next announcement. Love Is The Seventh Wave is already on extra 1985-1989 🤦‍♂️ and if they wanted to include ABC, they should’ve put Be Near Me on extra 1985 or extra 1985-1989 and put Vanity Kills on here instead

Oops at the Sting repeat, quality control get in here.

Apart from that and about three others, I know hardly any of these so lots to discover.

Someone isn’t paying attention to compiling these tracklists to make these mistakes again. If they were that eager to include him, they should’ve included one of his 1986 songs instead

Well, despite that, the rest are so new and unique to the series!

Disc 3 of Vault 85 is so camp. I love it! I know a lot of the artists thanks to RuPaul’s Drag Race.

I’m also loving the fan made NOWs @nowmusic1993 and @Harrison FB are doing.

It's just one track

You obviously don’t understand the concept of yearbooks then and they could’ve put something else in its place instead. In my opinion, Love Is The Seventh Wave belongs on here and shouldn’t have been on extra 1985-1989

Hey, I DO understand! And at least we'll get information about the song, unlike on '85-'89 EXTRA.

Repeating songs on other random spin-offs, fair enough but repeating songs on multiple yearbooks or multiple numbered albums, no

Okay, I'll admit, I was a tad mad about 'The More You Live, The More You Love' being reused from another Yearbook, and yes, they could've had something else. But if it's from an EXTRA album which didn't feature info about the track, that's fine by me.

They did the same when Should I Stay Or Should I Go appeared on both extra 1982 and 1991. In my opinion, they should’ve put Straight To Hell on extra 1982 instead and if they were eager to include Sting on extra 1985-1989, they should’ve included one of his 1986 songs instead

That's nice to hear, thank you! And I planned on doing fan-made DANCE versions of the numbered albums for a while now. Even improving on 119, 120, 121, 122 and 123 was an idea for me.

Of course. Could've made them better by having those as replacements.

Anytime. They are great track listings. So many great dance pop bangers that should’ve been on the actual NOWs.

Agreed. Like on the official dance albums back then, most of the tracks (except the random ones) DID chart but never appeared on the numbered albums. I would've given them a chance if I joined NOW myself.

I also realised that My Hometown peaked at number 9. They should’ve included Cover Me or Glory Days instead as those charted lower
