Product Description

From the Label

Now 63 features the biggest and best chart tracks of the year thus far on two CDs--there’s no better pop-comp out there. There’s a great line-up here, with 42 massive hits making the cut... You’ll find the hottest UK newcomer Corinne Bailey Rae alongside the USA’s biggest current export, The Pussycat Dolls; Number One pop monsters like Chico & Meck feat Leo Sayer; and fun for all the family from Shayne Ward, Sugababes, Will Young and Simon Webbe.

If you fancy some guitar pop, well look no further: Coldplay (Talk); Richard Ashcroft (Break The Night With Colour); Kaiser Chiefs (The Modern Way) and Embrace (Nature’s Law) are all aboard. If you’re currently grooving to that 70’s vibe, it’s fine too--The Feeling (Sewn) and Orson (No Tomorrow) are here. If you’re miss the 80’s well, A-ha are back (Analogue), Dead Or Alive are flying high again and U2 (All Because of You) never went away. And if you like the right here and now, Fall Out Boy, Goldfrapp, Gorillaz, Kubb, The Black Eyed Peas, Andy Abraham, Kelly Clarkson, Son of Dork, McFly, Friday Hill, Rhianna & Girls Aloud are all on the splendid Now 63 too.

3.0 out of 5 stars Now! thats enough, 6 April 2006
to be honest i wasnt too sure whether or not the NOW! cds were still being compiled. As much of an institution that they are music has now expanded and diversified way beyond what can be put on one chart compilation cd. I do not deny there are some quality tracks on this album;
Coldplay - Talk
Pussycat Dolls feat will.i.am - Beep
Black Eyed Peas - My Humps
Orson - No Tomorrow (personal favourite)
Hi_Tack - Say Say Say (Waiting 4 U)
and tracks from U2, Fallout Boy, Embrace and the infectious outing from sunblock, brilliantly mixing the baywatch theme. However tracks from Nizlopi, Will Young, Kubb, MVP and Chico are dire, not worth of any CD. It is no longer possible to offer a CD encompassing all genres as there are many great dance tunes missing, as well as great rock songs. it seems that NOW! are too scared to venture away from previous formulas instead of branching out into something new and revolutionary.

3.0 out of 5 stars The weaker link, 15 April 2006
By Mr. R. B. Ager "Ronald Ager" (Nottingham, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Every good chain has the odd weak link, and I have to say that No 63 may prove to be the Now series weakest. The trend towards making the collection so full of Radio 2 playlist material means that it has become more appropriate for Mothers or Fathers Day presents, rather than for the kids to buy as their Easter egg.

Of course there is the odd exception - you probably won't hear Wogan playing Son of Dork - but the fact that eight of the tracks owe their success in the charts to TV talent or reality shows, and another eight cover or sample old hits of the 70s/80s indicate the likely audience for much of it. There was a time when I felt there was too much dance and new rock included - now there's hardly any.

As far as topicality goes only seven tracks were still in the Top 40 on release date, much lower than usual, and quite a few were hits before even Now 62 came out. Just five No 1s are included, not counting the exhumed Dead Or Alive oldie, though this will partly be because the dreary Shayne Ward and Nizlopi songs hogged the position for longer than is normal these days.

It has to be said that most of the tracks did achieve the Top Ten, so the collection continues to serve its remit of refelcting the pop chart. It's just that, even more than usual, the best tracks are on albums that many people will already have and the rest would five years ago barely have qualified as album fillers.

3.0 out of 5 stars Making the best of a poor field to choose from, 29 Mar 2006
By John James Dickie (Kent United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Although this may not be the finest offering from the Now series, I think it is important to remember that it is not entirely their fault. Keeping in mind that they do not have access to recordings from all labels (has Modonna ever appeared on Now albums?) they have had little to choose from given the poorer than normal quality of releases in the charts during the closing weeks of 2005 and the first quarter of 2006.

It is only reasonable to expect that if you collect all the Now albums, some will be better than others. Now 63 isn't one of the best but that's today's charts for you and the nature of the music industry in terms of which tracks they can access.

Overall though, not at all unpleasant.
