It’s a shame that Total Eclipse Of The Heart is the only song of hers to enter the Spotify top 50. I was hoping for Holding Out For A Hero to be another entry or maybe some of her 70s songs or songs that missed the top 40

And People Watching. I wouldn’t mind some of his songs from his first album cracking the top 40 for the first time

I’m surprised People Watching is on the verge of dropping out of the album chart seeing as Rein Me In is still number 1. You’d think the album would be much higher than that. While Bryan Adams and Wet Wet Wet were number 1, their albums spent a few weeks at number 1 during their number 1 singles runs

Depends if he has other songs from the first half of the 70s that missed the yearbooks. Maybe Step Into Christmas missed out because it peaked quite recently

I’ve said loads of times that’s they should do it. I remember Now 80s Party in 2017 where Queen opened disc 1 and Wham! opened disc 2 and they had no problem with that. Also on Now 100 Hits 80s in 2019, Wham! were track 2 behind Queen. Saying that, Jenny Fisher compiled both those albums and I reckon she would’ve compromised both artists on yearbooks had she stayed on. As for Elton John’s absence from both artists 1999 yearbooks, I reckon it’s due to LeAnn Rimes. Don’t understand why Saturday and Step Into Christmas missed both 1973 yearbooks

I’d rather they did include it so it doesn’t cost Queen an appearance like his appearances on both 1987 yearbooks cost Freddie an appearance

As for George Michael’s absence, I wonder if they refused to include As as their way of giving his label the middle finger seeing as they’re obsessed with him being track 1

I’m surprised You’re My Number One appears on there when it peaked in 2000. I hope we get Two In A Million on 1995-1999 and same goes for Seasons In The Sun. Not sure if they can’t license that song specifically considering they can license Westlife

I thought I’d come up with a random Now spin-off and here it is. Now That’s What I Call Grand Theft Auto and it consists of songs that have appeared on radio stations across all GTA games. I reckon they should do something like this to coincide with the release of GTA 6 in November. At the end of the day, they do come up with loads of pointless spin-offs but this one I came up with would be a good idea and would cater to both collectors and casual buyers. Whether it’s pointless or not, at least it’s something that hasn’t been done CD 1 Queen - One Vision Frankie Goes To Hollywood - Two Tribes Human League - (Keep Feeling) Fascination Kim Wilde - Kids In America Go West - Call Me Nena - 99 Luftballons Thomas Dolby - Hyperactive!

I agree. They need to stop making David Sylvian happen. Save him for the vaults at least. Too many hits missing yet they include David Sylvian. Even though Elton John is overly represented on yearbooks, I’d rather they included his top 10 hit over David Sylvian’s top 40 hit. No ATB Don’t Stop either. They obviously don’t listen to complaints they’re getting about overly representing David Sylvian. Same with Donna Summer. Her song didn’t even make the top 40

Pretenders should’ve swapped places with one of the Geri Halliwell songs that appear on extra and You’re My Number One peaked in 2000 which is why I’m surprised it’s on there. I hope Two In A Million appears on 1995-1999

If any of his songs should’ve appeared on yearbooks, it’s his number 16 song Forbidden Colours which missed both 1983 yearbooks. No Elton John either considering he’s normally over represented on yearbooks

Good tracklist apart from David Sylvian spoiling it. With Supergrass, I’m surprised we got Pumping On Your Stereo instead of Moving and either Seasons In The Sun is unlicensable or they’ll include it on 1995-1999. No George Michael which I’m surprised about

Sam and Olivia gonna get that 16th non-consecutive week so I’m gonna root for Last Christmas to overtake in the future

And it would’ve been more if the match was brought forward to 7pm or they made Monday a bank holiday

If it’s not an England game, I want the better team to lose

I’m hoping it is and I’m hoping it isn’t. I’m hoping it is because we only have one yearbook ending with a 5 (1985) and I’m hoping it isn’t because it will trigger a final chapter but saying that, even if 1975 is next, they’ll more likely release all the individual yearbooks first and save the four final chapters for last. If 1975 isn’t next, then I hope 1995 is the next 90s yearbook we get at the end of October

23rd or 30th they should announce it but I reckon 23rd as there’s nothing released on 24th

Already spotted in charity shops 🤣🤣🤣

It’s gotta be extra 1999 and I hope it’s extra 1999. I reckon there won’t be any announcements on the 16th and the next 70s yearbook will be announced on the 23rd

Last Christmas will overtake in the future whether you like it or not and that’s coming from someone who doesn’t like that song. Imagine the power of Sam Fender getting Christmas songs removed from the singles chart 🤣

I’m hoping Last Christmas overtakes Rein Me In in the future. Imagine Sam Fender or his label begging OCC to remove Christmas songs from the singles chart so they can keep the record

I can see people starting to book Thursday 16th and Monday 20th off to be prepared and Sunday 12th if they work in retail

I agree. The way they’re describing this album, it’s like sales and airplay charts are their main priority and that they’re using the singles chart as filler

Whoever compiles the numbered albums needs sacking seeing as they’re deliberately focusing on sales and airplay charts and not paying attention to the singles chart. Bring back Ashley Abram or Jenny Fisher
