That’s some gorgeous artwork!

These pre-NOW era albums give off such a cozy vibe! I’ve sent nearly all of them to my mum to enjoy because she loves the late 70s-early 80s. Her favourite so far is Winter 1981.

Thanks for doing these definitive editions @Harrison FB Great work from you, and of course @nowmusic1993 .

Ed Sheeran is no longer a selling point for anything anymore… even if it is the song we never got.

Love it! Instant pre-order

You should put a hype sticker on the DVD saying “featuring the full uncensored Rock DJ video”.😉

The Dance-Pop section of Disc 1 with Dannii, Gala, Olive, Sash!, Dario G, and Tina Moore is soooo good!

I’m really loving the remastered artwork. It looks so crisp and sharp! Especially the back covers. Fabulous work once again!

Lucky Star and Like a Virgin feel so right at home on those early NOWs. Wish that was in the real world.

Looking at this track listing reminds me of my iPod Nano! Also, yes!!! At the High Contrast Remix of Hometown Glory!❤️

Beyoncé - Texas Hold 'Em Madonna - I Love New York Fergie L.A. Love (La La) Pop divas know how to make a state banger.

Wow! What a great question. I have so many things to say (so apologies). The first thing NOW has done for me is; being fascinated with music in general. I have discovered so many songs outside of the Pop world that I usually stay in. Even my first NOW (NOW 44) introduced me to songs I never would normally listen to. Tina Turner, Phil Collins, Diana Ross, Tom Jones, The Cardigans, Supergrass, etc. Since they were rubbing shoulders with Steps, Britney, S Club, and Lolly I ended up getting to know the songs well, and discover a lot of these artists back catalogues. Since then each NOW has offered me something that I love that I don't usually put on my pop playlists. NOW also gives me a great sense of where I was when a song was released, and how old I was, what I was doing, and what memories are attached to it. NOW 45, me and my mum brought a copy each from Andy's Records in Mere Green, NOW 50 reminds me of seeing the first Harry Potter film, NOW 56 reminds me of when our car was broken into and my CD wallet was in there with my cd player. NOW 62 reminds me of my new obsession with Madonna and being confused of why she wasn't on Volume 62. 64 reminds me of the NOW Music Forums, and first stumbling across this very forum. 70 reminds me of me and my nan seeing "Mamma Mia" in cinema... twice! 80 is when I moved to Manchester for Uni... 82 is when I failed & left Uni. I have memories attached to each one that had released since my first. The biggest thing I have to thank NOW for is my interest in Copyright in Music! Learning about all the limitations, agreements, and label changes. I just find that stuff fascinating! And it's all because of NOW and their copyright pages, the lack of certain acts, the rival labels making their own comps, and other things. It's what got me into Music Management at previously said Uni. OH! And connections. A NOW album is such a great icebreaker for friends, family, and my husband. All of us relating to songs and artists that all appear in one place. It's just lovely!

MISSING THE POINT (once again). I can't deal with this anymore - you have ruined this thread for me. And I'm sure I'm not the only one who agrees with that. Carry on moaning about this, but I for one am gonna ignore EVERYTHING you have to say in here. Got enough misery in the world, I don't need it on a forum thread about the NOW series.

I don't care. NOW have done it in the past - waaaaaay before streaming was a thing. Look at 34/57 - Peter Andre. 2/26 - Frankie Goes to Hollywood. 6/23 - Simple Minds.
