Reviews

'I grew up with the NOW albums and it was a real moment when our first single was on there. NOW only had the biggest songs of the time on it - the best of the best - so it was such a big deal to me. To then see nearly all of our singles go on different compilations is such an honour. I still can't believe Girls Aloud have been featured on more NOW albums than any other group.' Kimberley Walsh
'NOW! has been an integral part of the pop music landscape in the UK since the 80s. The fact that NOW! is still going strong just shows that music fans still love to discover music in this way, and compilations of hit singles often define specific years for many people.' Kim Wilde
'It was such a thrill seeing our first single 'I Know Where It's At' make it onto a NOW compilation - a real 'pinch me' moment. They've really become part of the history of pop music in this country and we're very lucky to have several of our songs featured over the years.' All Saints
