Now That's What I Call Music! 96

Now 96 released on the 7th of April 2017 was pretty revelatory by it's inclusion of tracks which hit both on the US and the UK charts and quite a few are crossovers in their genre and for possibly the 1st time it "borrows" a cover from the US Now Music 61 released earlier which has several tracks in common but here's a track listing plus what I think additionally should have been included:CD 1:1. Ed Sheeran - Castle on the Hill: Great folk inspired track.Best way to kick off the compilation.2. Rag'n'Bone Man - Human: Great song.3. Little Mix - Touch: Great track.4. The Weeknd feat. Daft Punk - Starboy: Great song, though it should have been on Now 95 as it was a hit in October 2016.5. The Chainsmokers - Paris: Great track.6. Starley - Call On Me: Great song.7. Anne-Marie - Ciao Adios: Great track.8. Bruno Mars - 24K Magic: Great song, though it should have been on Now 95 as it was a hit in October/November 2016.9. Zara Larsson - I Would Like: Great track.10. Katy Perry feat. Skip Marley - Chained to the Rhythm: Great song.11. Sean Paul feat. Dua Lipa - No Lie: Great track.12.

Good price, very quick delivery

Enjoying the selection very much on this version (NOW 96) compared to previous edt purchased.I have previously downloaded NOW 92 & NOW 95 as it had a large selection of songs I listen to.With every compilation, you will probably never like/love every song. To get all 40+ songs that you love, especially from different artists will never be the perfect CD. (MP3 downloads and make your own playlist is the sensible way to achieve this)However, the reason I bought it was simple. I enjoy at least 15-17 songs on both CD's. This is cheaper than buying the songs individually and I can customise my own playlist with the power of Windows & Amazon Music. Hence why I downloaded this album as this is my spring time playlist while in the car or with the headphones in.We all have different tastes in music so check the song list provided, try the sample and maybe even listen to one or two songs and see if it does make your head bop or your leg shuffle.Mix in with a few other tracks from other albums and you will have the ideal playlist for you.Very pleased with my purchase from NOW and Amazon. (Downloaded as an MP3 album and was available immediately via Amazon Music)

Good album good price added this to my collection. Songs from a few years ago I enjoyed it.

Bought this album listed as labled clean for my nephew. loved all the song on the album . disapointed that even though it said clean. some swear word did appear in weeked song starboy. shame i can't give it as a gift . still a good selection of song though

I have been purchasing Now That's What I Call Music tapes and CDs since their inception in the early 1980s. Each new double CD contains a great mix of current up-to-date tracks from a range of A-listed artists. Great value for money.

I love the album its so up beat and cheerful I listen to the now 96 in the car and to get to sleep and whilst doing my hair I could go on forever thanks so much for it

I am being very loyal to this series. I almost have the whole series, but unfortunately it is not having the impact it had in the past. At the beginning was full of great and amazing tunes, but now due to the crisis in creativity and the already excess of electronica music is really causing an impact on the content.Another thing is the abuse of "guest artists" almost all the songs have 2, 3 or even 4 artists and that really brings songs and music to a mathematic affaire more than creative result. In any case here in this NTICM96 we find some fine tunes such as those by Ed Sheeran, Bruno Mars or The Weeknd (both songs a little too late), Lorde, Dua Lipa and some more. There are many fillers unfortunately. Like I have said in the past it is not the producers of this collection to blame but the current musical landscape.

Nice selection

Great as usual !
