Summary: Now hit the big Five-O...
Comment: And what an album!Kylie Minogue's worldwide smash hit (Can't Get You Outta My Head) starts us off, and it is the best choice for the year end Now, kicking off with dance pop! Westlife have their #1 smash (Uptown Girl) next, which, although old, is OK, as Now 44 had the likes of Britney, Steps and Shania Twain from the early part of the year, and Now 47 had the likes of the All Saints and Robbie Williams. Next we get a bit of novelty with Bob The Builder and DJ Otzi. Pretty harmless, fun songs - but no highlights. My personal favourite on the album, is Steps' hit (Chain Reaction), which starts the way for a trio of great pop songs, followed by Five and Sophie Ellis Bextor. The likes of Blue, Wyclef, Nelly Futardo, Alien Ant Farm and City High make up the mid section of Disc One with popular songs - and all listenable. The good thing about these is that if you are a pop fan - the songs are catchy enough, a rock fan - the songs are rocky enough and so on. Wheatus and Travis round out the rock before J Lo, Emma Bunton, Gabrielle and friends end the disc with easy listening pop ballads. CD2 starts with Iio's hit, not a favourite of mine, but not horrible. Destinys Child, Superman Lovers and D12 come up next, a weird start of varied songs to the disc. R&B/Pop kicks in for about 10 tracks with the likes of Eve and Gwen, Britney, Mis Teeq's excellent track, the fantastic Mary J Blige song, Samantha Mumba (the album version sadly, not the single version), Liberty, Louise and so on. The disc ends with a bunch of forgettable dance tracks thrown between N Trance's top track, and the amusing Afroman. Overall a nice CD, but with bad editing in Sophie Ellis Bextor's track, and Samantha Mumba's album version, plus the fact that the album does tire rather quickly - and you only end up listening to about 20 of them a few months down the track. But still a great Disc to have in your collection! Saved me heaps of $$$ instead of buying CD Singles!

Summary: Best for a while
Comment: while this series of "Now..." albums is usually a chance to hear all of the worst music that is out at the moment, this one is a bit better. these sort of compilations usually struggle to fill both CD's with songs that you actually want to hear, but this time I have to say that I listened to it all - a rare occurance! The pop tune arn't too Poppy and the dance tracks arn't too dancy, this is about right for someone who is into a bit of everything. Kepp them at this standard at least!!
Customer Rating:
Summary: A nice mixture of recent chart hits.
Comment: There are some very good pop songs but why wait till now to put a song by Five on a NOW album and Westlife, Uptown Girl was out in March time. The best songs on this album for me was Take Me Home (Sophie Ellis Bextor), Sing (Travis),Chain Reaction (Steps),Thinking It Over (Liberty-or was?), plus most of the pop songs. Some dance songs were good. The 2 songs I do not like are Because I Got High (Afroman) and 21 Seconds (So Solid Crew).

Summary: Now 50 is sooooooooo good!
Comment: Now 50 is one of the best complations ever! If like me, you're into lots of different styles of music, then this is perfect. It has poppy tunes like 'Can't Get You Out Of My Head' by Kylie Minogue, and Westlife's 'Uptown Girl', as well as Rock hits such as 'Smooth Criminal' by Alien Ant Farm and not to mention Sum 41's 'Fat Lip'. Now 50 is also packed full of the top dance tracks of the year such as Supermen Lovers' 'Starlight' and 'Rapture' - Iio. Not forgetting some fab Hip-Hop and RnB tracks such as City High 'What Would You Do?' and Mary J Blige's 'Family Affair'. Now 50 does not fail to come up with a CD full of fab tracks and loads of number 1's from throughtout 2001. Now 50 is a must!
