Now That's What I Call Music! 67

This is also a fantastic Now album. Rihanna and Jay-Z's Umbrella song spent 10 weeks at number 1, the longest number 1 of the 2000's. This album is not as good as Now 66 and Now 68.

Release Date: 23 July 2007

2007 may now be half a decade ago, but we are still getting the same kind of music polluting our charts, Now 67 proves, with that cliché that the better tracks are on Disc Two, this assumption down to a tea.
Disc 1 contains every single earworm that was forever played into our bleeding eardrums back on commercial radio, from a lot acts that are still dominating our musical tastes still. It probably come as a shock that some of the more solid tracks are present from about halfway listening to Umbrella and Shine for the billionth time ever since its birth. Kelly Clarkson will defy sceptics of reality shows, which something good does come out of them, with Never Again. Justin Timberlake proved that something good could be spawned out of a boy band, with his catchy craftiness of LoveStoned/I Think She Knows. Robin Thicke finishes the disc on a dodgy kind of a high with the excellent Lost Without U.
Disc Two paints a more positive picture of 2007 music scene, ranging from Maroon 5's Makes Me Wonder to The Chemical Brothers' Do It Again giving hope that there was musical life coming out of the stuff-that-didn't-top-the-charts scene at the time. Whilst not every track can be herald as a masterpiece- The Twang's Either Way, and Jamie T's Stella bringing up the rear on the ground of just sounding as annoying as it ever did back then- the disc gives great scope and variety to keep even the most picky of pop music fans happy.
So while Now 67 provides the listener with the good and the dodgy of what that year had to offer, it will provide debate over why on earth they compilation people at Now can just produce two separate compilations to accommodate two very different tastes of compilation. Disc One can be called Now This is What Polluted the Pop Charts, with Disc Two being renamed Now This is the Stuff Worth Listening To. That way people can choose whether to listening to same pasteurised pop music repeatedly or material that has a bit more substance to its credit.

This product arrived quickly and in good condition, excellent value for money, It was a present for my daughter who was very pleased and is enjoying the CD.
