I'm currently enjoying and cringing in equal measures at NOW! 23.
With 100 of the buggers in existence now, pretty much everyone on here has owned at least one of these things. Some, like my mate Josh, own them all. Through the power of nostalgia and spite for the decades that came before and after you hit your teens, which Now record do you think stands tallest above them all?
I personally nominate 1994s NOW 28. Not every track is a killer (it's the 90s so naturally has a bloody M-People track), and secondary Haddaway, Reel 2 Reel, and 2 Unlimited tracks... but it has Prodigy's No Good, Ace of Base's Don't Turn Around, All-4-One's only song anyone remembers, and that Stiltskin song from the Levis advert from when that seemed to be the guiding light of popular music.
This is also a place to discuss the pain of owning NOW 23 on tape, which had the Tetris music followed by the Super Mario Land music. A dark day for music and fast forward buttons everywhere.
(It is pretty much a guarantee my opinion will have changed by teatime. 1992s NOW 21 has *TWO* KLF tracks on it afterall. Cor!)
But it’s all the songs you wish had done well enough to be on an album.
I was looking on Instagram and I found this post:

Why is their so many comments?

I listened to a Now That's What I Call Music playlist one time (for nostalgia purposes) and now YouTube music ALWAYS includes it in the Your Favorites tab. I feel very attacked...
