Now 57 is one of the best albums to date in the collection.

There are great songs on here:-

Britney Spears - Toxic
Black Eyed Peas - Shut Up
Justin Timberlake - I'm Lovin It
and many more.

There's something for everyone here, no matter what type of music everyone is into. Rock, indie, trance, pop, rap.

My favourite tracks are on here - DJ Casper's Cha Cha Slide, Girls Aloud's Jump, Sprecial D's Come With Me, Ultrabeat's Feelin' Fine, Ferry Corsten's Rock Your Body Rock and N.E.R.D.'s She Wants To Move.

The problem is, why is Michelle McManus on here? She wasted her career opportunity of being a pop star after winning Pop Idol. She does not deserve to be listed here. Also, the cover is good - excellent choice as it was released in or around the Easter period.

In terms of the collection of the records put together on this album, it is good, but there is a weak track, which is Michelle McManus' All This Time. It was pointless putting her on when she just wasted her career of being a pop star. If she didn't waste it, she would have released another song which would have appeared on the next album which isn't. Putting all the dance tracks was a good idea, but right at the bottom of the first CD listings? It should be at least in the middle.

Now 57 is so good, I can't wait to see what's Now 58 going to be like when it's released.
