Between the family we own pretty much all of the Now Cds, dating quite far back anyway. The Now Thats What I Call Music!... collection is a collection of CD albums released seasonally filled with all the hits from the past few months. Although people do not tend to get as excited about these because of downloads, YouTube and what have you, they are still something to have in the collection and can be treasured for years to come!
Now: 71 was released towards the end of 2008, just in time for people to outstock the shops, as it is an ideal Christmas present! The cover is very attractive! Is is filled with presents of every colour to lure you closer, showing just what a treat and gift this is! Bowsing the back you will notice there are forty five tracks spread out on two discs. Now I will not go into detail about each one but I shall ...
Advantages: Some good tunes, suitable for anyone any age Disadvantages: Also some poor quality tunes, getting worse each time a new ones out

Disk one track listing is as follows
*1. Duffy - Mercy
This is a song of Duffy's debut album that made it straight to number one from the first internet download releases. Her music is said to be similar to the music from Amy Winehouse. Duffy is originally from Wales and became famous from a talent show.
*2. Rihanna - Don't Stop The Music
A catchy very lively song by Rihanna similar to some of her other releases favourite of mine on this album. This song is from Rihanna's album 'Good Girl Gone Bad'.
*3. Basshunter - Now You're Gone
I had heard this song before I heard it by Basshunter not sure where but it was familiar, a really fast easy to get into song. That has been successful in various countries as well as the UK, I feel it is one of the best songs on this album.
*4. Girls Aloud ...
Advantages: A few good tracks. Disadvantages: Too many bad tracks, poorly put together
Now That's What I call The 80's was one of the cd's I found in my Christmas stocking this year, all my family knows I love cheesy 80's music so I wasn't surprised by this choice. Initially it seemed like a really good cd, at least on first appearances, part of the Now series and featuring one of my favourite musical decades you would think it could do no wrong, sadly there are too many flaws making this cd a major let down.
Consisting of 3 discs and 60 tracks, with a wide range of the decade's finest (and admittedly not so fine) artists, this should have been possibly the greatest 80's compilation of all time. The Now series of albums have in the past been known to feature a few really strong successful tracks backed up by lesser known songs and artists, but when they specifically release a 3 disc set dedicated to one era of music you ...
