Now That's What I Call Music! 60

Product Information

I remember this date solely because I had just been taken into hospital following a potentially life threatening bout of appendicitis, so my memories of a lot of these songs remind me of not being well, woozy on IVs and crying at really random things (Athlete on disc 2 in particular.

This is what you came for: the hottest hits of 2016, including Sia’s boastful “The Greatest,” Britney Spears’ lightly playful “Make Me…,” and Flume’s whirling, throbbing “Never Be Like You. Taking a quick glance at the expanded music selection here, I think it's safe to say that the bonus CD - with its collection of popular and hard to object to Pharrell, Idina Menzil, Imagine Dragons, Nick Jonas and Maroon 5 - is designed to be played perhaps at Thanksgiving, or while hosting a pre-holiday party. From 2003, and until 2010, there was one special edition released each year, covering a decade (80s, 90s and 00s), or a cross section of big hits celebrating the Now series ( Now Decades, Now Years, Now Dance) - however, from 2011, they became much more frequent, and in 2017, there were fifteen different titles released.Towards the end of the series, 3-CD digipak sets were issued, but in 2010, the long-running title was retired, and all subsequent dance-themed Now collections have been issued under the Special Editions series. Despite Darius – Live Twice being my second fave of course, I went with Stereophonics - Dakota, definitely a big anthem and my fave Stereophonics song! This was far from a vintage period of music for me overall though, certainly not in the charts (the Elvis reissues and tragic sales summed it up). The quality of the music in the charts was starting to improve and this volume marked the end of a run of poor volumes for me.

In a world where streaming music has the appearance of being more popular than physical music ownership, the fact that a top pop hits compilation album - mostly sold in CD form - consistently makes the Billboard charts speaks to the genius of such a playlist.These compilations are very similar to the anniversary series, however, they contain a lower amount of tracks and retailed much cheaper than the former series. They all vary from one to five disc compilations (occasionally six disc), starting in 1986 and continuing to the present day (Jan 2023). Due to the higher cost of pressing vinyl and the limited time they are available, they are at least three times more expensive than their compact disc counterparts.

In February 2023, 12" mixes all taken from the first three Now Dance compilations, originally released in 1985, 1986 and 1989, were collected on a special 4CD and 3LP set, Now Dance: The 80s, with artwork inspired by the original Now Dance 86.The 103 third parties who use cookies on this service do so for their purposes of displaying and measuring personalized ads, generating audience insights, and developing and improving products.
