About this deal

I’m ’n Luv (wit a Stripper),” which appears on Now 22, is not the only song in which T-Pain documents his unrequited love for a stripper. The first sixteen volumes were all released on the same date, with the final four being issued four months later. We’re getting into the nitty gritty now, where every remaining Now has a valid argument for it being the best ever—just over 10 points separate Now 4 from the very top. They are also notable as being the first time a Now series had released a compilation of hits from the years 1980 to 1982. For the 30th anniversary of Now in 2013 and the release of Now 100 in Summer 2018, the first Now album was re-compiled and re-issued.

Disc 2 on the other hand has a CLEAR favourite for me and that is 'Here (In Your Arms)' by Hellogoodbye I think this is the biggest turnaround I have ever had for a song, because I used to dislike it when it came out but now it is within my top 10 songs of all-time it stands out for miles on the compilation and makes me melt every time. These songs were not factored into scoring, as they are mostly random shots in the dark at predicting future hits that never panned out.A further release, The Final Chapter, a deluxe 4-CD and 3-LP set, was issued in December 2022, rounding off the Yearbook years 1980 to 1984.

A hot take: “Need You Now” is one of the best songs of the decade, across all genres; it’s probably top five. Mya’s inclusion on Now 14 (“My Love Is Like … Wo”) brings us to the most egregious case of “I Can’t Believe That’s Not Music.The United Kingdom series has 100 albums and has been in circulation since 1983; the old country has known what music is for much longer. However, overlooked on this occasion were hits from the likes of talent show winner Lee Mead, the UK Eurovision entry from Scooch, Arctic Monkeys, Linkin Park, JoJo, Travis, Bob Sinclar and The Enemy among others. The Now Yearbook series continues both forwards, with Now Yearbook 1985 issued in November 2022, and backwards, with the release of Now Yearbook 1979 in September 2022 (an Extra followed in October).

Deleting this artist may remove other artists and scrobbles from your library - please handle this with caution! Initially, a special edition of a Now compilation was quite rare, and between 1994 and 2002, there weren't any released at all. Now 52 is perhaps the only time the compilation’s “Now What’s Next” section predicted future success: The last track on the album is Rae Sremmurd’s first single, “No Flex Zone. Turn Down for What” is Lil Jon’s revenge on the Now god after it somehow determined that both “Get Low” and “Yeah!

Some of them have unique track listings and are not related to similarly themed collections already issued on compact disc, however, more recent releases have been 'selections' taken from a larger CD collection (Rock, for example). These were all released on CD and magnetic cassette, but with the 1993 and 1994 volumes also being released on the vinyl format. This means two things: That some of the album’s iconic songs surprisingly didn’t chart very well, and that the highs of the album were dragged down by much lower lows (I’m looking at you, “Everything” by Fefe Dobson).

It also doesn’t have any massive hits—“Closing Time” was the album’s longest-charting song at 37 weeks on the Hot 100—which is why this bizarre conglomeration of songs is ranked so low. In one corner you’ve got “Love Don’t Cost a Thing” by Jennifer Lopez, which was the subject of probably my favorite episode of Making the Video.The original Now Dance series began in 1985 and has been released in a variety of titles, formats, and release frequency. If this was music in late 2016, then those months are truly the darkest days of American pop culture.
