  1. I don't like his style of music at all, but I wouldn't say he doesn't deserve his success. He doesn't seem like a tool, and he probably puts in a lot of time into his songwriting and music. It's the general public that makes him successful, so if they like the music, that's their prerogative. I think there's much more interesting music out there that deserves the same level of success, but that doesn't make him undeserving.

    "Rhymes" might be on there, because the charts have been very slow these past few months, and they need material to fill a 42-45 track compilation. I hope it is on there, because I really like the song, or I at least hope it's on the Now 2015 Club Hits compilation.

    The wait between Delta and Child of the Universe was too long, it would be torture to wait that long again. But, luckily Child of the Universe was well worth the delay.
  4. I like the song, but I'd prefer one of the other re-issue tracks to be a single. "Heartbreak Party" and "Kick Up Your Heels" are begging to be singles too.
  5. I wasn't try to make inflammatory statements, I was just making a comparison. The Vamps just aren't exciting to me like 5SOS is. For me it's: Luke>Ashton>Michael>Calum

    I actually really love the artwork, it's wild and crazy! Even though I loved the US Now 53 cover too.
  7. The Vamps are the epitome of dullness.
  8. They're my favorite boyband now, I can't wait! It was so cool how we got 20 million tracks with their first album era. And, Luke is such a cutie! :)

    Yes, CD 1 had the biggest problems, but they shaved too many seconds off of most songs on both discs of the album, where they ended too abruptly. Maybe it just bothered me, and everyone else didn't care.
  10. I've read that "Don't Panic" by Coldplay on Now 48 was the lowest charting song to ever appear on a Now album. I don't know if the single was officially released, or just charted on import sales, but I think it charted somewhere in the 100s.

    I just hope the editing on the songs is better than Now 89, and that lots of dance hits are included!

    I can't wait! She's one of the best popstars around. I loved Child of the Universe, and I hope we get as many tracks as we got with that album. It's such a shame she's never been able to achieve global success though.
  13. It's all just different people's opinions. Obviously a ton of people like both "Uptown Funk" and "Happy," but they're too calculated and dull for my tastes. It's not the type of pop music I prefer. Not because they're sung by men, they just don't pique my interest.
  14. "California" is good pop that appeals to pop music lovers. "Uptown Funk" is just generic drivel that appeals to the general public, like "Happy."
  15. I agree that all of those songs are awful, except "Changing," I didn't know why it was included. The charts always have many songs that aren't great, but the UK charts aren't near as bad as they were circa 2006-2009, when indie rock dominated, and pop and dance took a backseat. I also don't get the Sam Smith popularity, his voice is whiny and his songs are dull, and he seems like a sanctimonious and patronizing twat.
  16. "Candy" is my ultimate jam. How infectious can one song be?! "Ooooh ooooh, come and getcha some, come and getcha some, ooooh, ooooh....!" "Candy" by Mandy Moore and "Candy" by Robbie Williams are also beyond amazing. Candy to mah ears!

    "Case of the Ex" was edited on the US Now 5 too. I was so thrilled when I got Now 48 though, and it wasn't edited. I hate edited music, especially when it leaves dead air in songs. I wish Now didn't edit their songs, but I guess they want to appeal to as many people as possible, especially a younger crowd that includes children and tweens.

    I don't see how this album will be released in the US, when "Right There" was a minor hit here and "Killer Love" still didn't get a release. I don't see "Your Love" being a hit in the US, I love it, because it's not a sound the American public tends to gravitate towards. This album is just too niche to appeal to a broader audience.

    That's why I stated "any allegations notwithstanding." I really don't see it happening for Ke$ha without her signature sound, she's kind of a one-trick pony. If the public have tired of her persona, she'll fade fast.
  21. I quite liked their debut album too, except their pointless cover of "Amaze Me." Their version of "Skyscraper" has been my favorite of any. However, from what I'm hearing from the sound of this album, I'm just not here for that.

    She's doomed without Dr. Luke. He helped develope her signature sound and style greatly. Too bad she couldn't realize that. Any allegations notwithstanding.

    It's just weird for a label to push for them when they have such a generic sound and chart under-performance, nothing against them personally. Especially when you have way better and more successful acts like the Wanted getting the axe after one album under-performance. 5SOS is about the only fun and interesting boyband at the moment.

    How is that profitable to sell it for that little? That's not even close to a $1.00 USD. Why keep an act on roster if you have to resort taking a sizable loss just to get them to sell? Especially since it probably won't even go #1.

    I think Now 44 is everyone's favorite. Now 57 & 62 are pretty mediocre though. I love 41, 45, 46, 47, and 86 too.
