The History Of Pop Part 41 aka I-I-I've notice you around, I find you very attractive...

After the HIGH DRAMA of Now 40, the next instalment was always going to be a letdown - some lame tracks, end-of-98 filler and what looks to me a clear winner. But I've been surprised before, for instance by "Because We Want To" overhauling "Teardrop" and winning the last Now poll (with Fatboy Slim in 2nd). Billie and Fatboy are back this time, mixing it up with the Vengaboys and old now 'favourite' BIG PHIL (no, not that Big Phil). UB40 are there too! It's just like old times!

TIXYLIX.

No Regrets is the cod-Pet Shop Boys one with the gasoline video, yes?

I thought Sham Rock must be bad, I had no idea how bad!

Robbie

Are the NOW! folk making up for lost time here w.r.t. Robbie? i.e. I don't remember "Let Me Entertain You", "Strong" et al featuring on earlier Now!s. Or did I just miss them?

LMEY was on one, Strong I don't think was.

The policy they had of two tracks from the 'big' artist was dropped at some point too.
