Wow. Could this album have any older tracks on it? I doubt it. These are all really old over played songs. Disapointed.

Now 70, 01 Sep 2008
Now That's What I Call Music 70

43 songs on 2 discs,

Most songs are good. I listen to this 1 song over an over again!
Worth buying!



Great track listing!, 04 Aug 2008
Well I think this NOW cd has a great track listing, maybe not quite as good as NOW 69, but very close in my opinion! I don't know why they included 'Scooter - Jumping All over the World' on here, along with a few other songs I have never heard of...but the other great tracks make it only a small negative! I think it's a shame that Madonna won't allow her tracks on here, as 4 minutes is a very popular song that would have been great on NOW 70.

Brilliant!!!!, 30 Jul 2008
Best 'Now' CD for a while. Cd 2 bettwer then Cd 1 in my opinion. Like the face that all the good songs are not just at the beginning like they usually are, but more spread out! Love it!

Now That's What I Call Music 70, 25 Jul 2008
The best now cd since now 44 and that was a long time ago anyway buy this album for Touch My Body [CD 2] In My Arms Can't Speak French [CD 2] Black & Gold Cry for You Break the Ice Scream All I Ever Wanted and Take a Bow overall i give this album a 10/10 must buy!

Quite good but can get boring soon, 25 May 2008
This is a good CD with some catchy songs on it, but they can get a bit boring after a while.
But it still has some catchy songs on it, so i'm giving it 5 stars.

Great music, 22 Apr 2008
The NOW albums always have the pick of the season: there is very little time when I haven't seen a really big song on there. You can practically only get these compilations for your entire music library, because they have all the must-have songs on board. Bit expensive at first glance, but lots of songs and good value for money. And I've really been wanting Rock Star for ages...

Great Album, 21 Apr 2008
I am definately a compilation album girl, I find when buying an artists complete album, you only end up enjoying a quater to a half of an album! This album is great, I am not hugely into modern music, but over the past few months the songs have been really good, so it is great to be able to buy an album that has all your favourites on!
Well worth buying!

Why can't they release this stuff in the U.S?, 24 Mar 2008
I didn't think Now 68 could be surpassed, but it has with this release. Just about every track is great. Why can't most of this great stuff (Duffy, Robyn, etc.) be released in the U.S.? Is our taste that bad?

Pretty good:), 24 Mar 2008
As usual cd 2 is given the entrie indie allowance, and cd one is given all of the dance tracks and hip hop. Though I have pretty much dowloaded all of the better songs on the album, it is a good mix this time.

This is a great CD for kids. I've bought a few as presents and am told they get played again and again. My kids love it.

The best... ever?, 19 Jun 2007
This isn't bad but myself and Doreen would beg to differ. After hours of listening pleasure, we have come to the conclusion that the Luciano Pavarotti's Disney Album is the best in the world... ever.

The best Disney album on offer in my books, 27 Jan 2007
The Best Disney Album in the World...Ever is the best Disney's album on offer in retail outlets. I do not think any alternative Disney's album can surpass this complilation. The album comprises three discs. All the memorable musical tracks are included in the album that you can listen to time and time again, for your own pleasure and to relight the magical moments of Disney at you home. The list seems to be endless, which includes big name classics such as Jungle Book, Sleeping Beauty, Mary Poppins, Bambi, Beauty and Beast and so on . Modern Disney muscial tracks are also featured such as High School musical. The Disney empire still continues to flourish as the album proves. The album is a real flavour of Disney films. The Disney movies by its nature are characterized by its musical orientation. In my mind, I cannot think of any movie excluding a music track. It is simply not the values and quality of Disney if you know what I am getting at.

If you are an avid fan and like to relieve the magic of Disney, I truly recommmend that you purchase this album. After listening to this album, I am fully convinced the album is the best on offer for Disney.

Very restful and soothing - according to the missus - and good value, too!, 11 Jun 2008
My wife (for whom I bought it) says that this CD set is very restful and soothing and I have to say that I quite like to hear the singing in the background whilst I slave away at the computer. And, of course, the great thing is that we got two CDs for about the price of one. Excellent!

Fine singing from Downside monks and choir, 25 Jan 2008
This is a lovely album of Gregorian classics, beautifully sung. And, of course, if you like the music: why not spend time at the monastery itself, which is near Bath? Why bathe in the thermal springs when one can bathe in the Divine Liturgy?

I'm afraid this is the usual format - 2 or 3 good songs supplemented by rubbish. Now that's what I call a rip-off AND we're on Volume 67 of the stuff! No wonder downloads are gaining in popularity - at least you get what you pay for. With this album, you get a few songs you might want and get a load of also-rans.

Brilliant!!, 20 Aug 2007
I love NOW 67 and if you like the music that's in the charts at the moment then you'll like it too.. If you don't like pop music don't buy now 67 simple as that..

Great chart songs, 13 Aug 2007
I like some songs on here. I like Kate Nash, Gwen Stefani, Reverand and the Makers. I enjoyed listening to all of them but there was some I didn't like, the one from Fergie. And a few others. I don't believe this CD is terrible, like some reviewers do. I think the variety is good because people like different things. So I've given it five stars

The best song ever is on it but what about the rest!, 12 Aug 2007
fergie feat. ludacris (Glamorous) is my favorite song ever.

The rest of the songs are not very good in my opinion not any desent beats rythms to them.

Now 64 remains the best Now in my opinion now 65 wasn't very good it was ok 66 was ok too but now 67 i would not recommend you buy unless you like alot of songs on BOTH OF THE CDS.

So as i said in my last Now Review look on the back of the case and make sure you like most of the songs then you will not have your money wasted.
If you don't look on the back you could be dissapointed.

It may be unfashionable, but you'll like it, 30 Jun 2005
I would guess that most people these days, upon seeing this album in the listings, would opine that the marketing department at EMI must be scraping the bottom of the barrel to come up with this for their "Best...In The World...Ever" series. Fans of band music will shun it for its pick-and-mix composition, and everyone else will not give it a second thought.

Unfashionable it may be, but there is nothing quite like the raw power and stirring sound of a military band playing live, unadulterated by electronics and amplification, and, while it is almost impossible to transfer this energy satisfactorily to record, to simply ignore it is to miss out on some blistering tunes and harmonies, and great music overall, and I would argue that there's a place in everybody's collection for at least one CD such as this.

Most of the famous marches from the likes of Sousa and Kenneth Alford are included, together with some pieces from 1960s/70s film and TV series; you may not recognise all the titles, but I'm sure you'll know the tunes when you hear them. Quite topically there's also a 12-minute suite of nautical themes to commemorate the Battle of Trafalgar. And of course it wouldn't be complete without the genre's finest (commercial) moment, the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards' "Amazing Grace". (Five weeks at No 1 - those were the days.)

As you will see from the tracklisting various bands are represented and, quite apart from the obvious pipes and drums, each has quite a different sound - for example, the Band of the Royal Marines sounds quite sharp and brisk, the Central Band of the RAF is warmer in tone and slightly more stately in rhythm. Recording dates also vary, even those of the same band, and this does not exactly help to give consistency of sound level and tone. However, only the four tracks from the Band of the Scots Guards, which date from 1955, really show any age.

This collection is great as a sampler, and to dip into now and again - I appreciate that not many people will listen to all two hours ten minutes of it straight through. Just now and then, stick it on, turn the volume up, and blow a few aural cobwebs away.

hmm, 22 Sep 2008
Wow. Could this album have any older tracks on it? I doubt it. These are all really old over played songs. Disapointed.

Now 70, 01 Sep 2008
Now That's What I Call Music 70

43 songs on 2 discs,

Most songs are good. I listen to this 1 song over an over again!
Worth buying!



Great track listing!, 04 Aug 2008
Well I think this NOW cd has a great track listing, maybe not quite as good as NOW 69, but very close in my opinion! I don't know why they included 'Scooter - Jumping All over the World' on here, along with a few other songs I have never heard of...but the other great tracks make it only a small negative! I think it's a shame that Madonna won't allow her tracks on here, as 4 minutes is a very popular song that would have been great on NOW 70.

Brilliant!!!!, 30 Jul 2008
Best 'Now' CD for a while. Cd 2 bettwer then Cd 1 in my opinion. Like the face that all the good songs are not just at the beginning like they usually are, but more spread out! Love it!

Now That's What I Call Music 70, 25 Jul 2008
The best now cd since now 44 and that was a long time ago anyway buy this album for Touch My Body [CD 2] In My Arms Can't Speak French [CD 2] Black & Gold Cry for You Break the Ice Scream All I Ever Wanted and Take a Bow overall i give this album a 10/10 must buy!

Quite good but can get boring soon, 25 May 2008
This is a good CD with some catchy songs on it, but they can get a bit boring after a while.
But it still has some catchy songs on it, so i'm giving it 5 stars.

Great music, 22 Apr 2008
The NOW albums always have the pick of the season: there is very little time when I haven't seen a really big song on there. You can practically only get these compilations for your entire music library, because they have all the must-have songs on board. Bit expensive at first glance, but lots of songs and good value for money. And I've really been wanting Rock Star for ages...

Great Album, 21 Apr 2008
I am definately a compilation album girl, I find when buying an artists complete album, you only end up enjoying a quater to a half of an album! This album is great, I am not hugely into modern music, but over the past few months the songs have been really good, so it is great to be able to buy an album that has all your favourites on!
Well worth buying!

Why can't they release this stuff in the U.S?, 24 Mar 2008
I didn't think Now 68 could be surpassed, but it has with this release. Just about every track is great. Why can't most of this great stuff (Duffy, Robyn, etc.) be released in the U.S.? Is our taste that bad?

Pretty good:), 24 Mar 2008
As usual cd 2 is given the entrie indie allowance, and cd one is given all of the dance tracks and hip hop. Though I have pretty much dowloaded all of the better songs on the album, it is a good mix this time.

Great Fun, 10 Aug 2008
This is a great CD for kids. I've bought a few as presents and am told they get played again and again. My kids love it.

The best... ever?, 19 Jun 2007
This isn't bad but myself and Doreen would beg to differ. After hours of listening pleasure, we have come to the conclusion that the Luciano Pavarotti's Disney Album is the best in the world... ever.

The best Disney album on offer in my books, 27 Jan 2007
The Best Disney Album in the World...Ever is the best Disney's album on offer in retail outlets. I do not think any alternative Disney's album can surpass this complilation. The album comprises three discs. All the memorable musical tracks are included in the album that you can listen to time and time again, for your own pleasure and to relight the magical moments of Disney at you home. The list seems to be endless, which includes big name classics such as Jungle Book, Sleeping Beauty, Mary Poppins, Bambi, Beauty and Beast and so on . Modern Disney muscial tracks are also featured such as High School musical. The Disney empire still continues to flourish as the album proves. The album is a real flavour of Disney films. The Disney movies by its nature are characterized by its musical orientation. In my mind, I cannot think of any movie excluding a music track. It is simply not the values and quality of Disney if you know what I am getting at.

If you are an avid fan and like to relieve the magic of Disney, I truly recommmend that you purchase this album. After listening to this album, I am fully convinced the album is the best on offer for Disney.

Very restful and soothing - according to the missus - and good value, too!, 11 Jun 2008
My wife (for whom I bought it) says that this CD set is very restful and soothing and I have to say that I quite like to hear the singing in the background whilst I slave away at the computer. And, of course, the great thing is that we got two CDs for about the price of one. Excellent!

Fine singing from Downside monks and choir, 25 Jan 2008
This is a lovely album of Gregorian classics, beautifully sung. And, of course, if you like the music: why not spend time at the monastery itself, which is near Bath? Why bathe in the thermal springs when one can bathe in the Divine Liturgy?

Cool songs the best yet, 04 Nov 2007

Mediocre at best, 05 Oct 2007

I'm afraid this is the usual format - 2 or 3 good songs supplemented by rubbish. Now that's what I call a rip-off AND we're on Volume 67 of the stuff! No wonder downloads are gaining in popularity - at least you get what you pay for. With this album, you get a few songs you might want and get a load of also-rans.

Brilliant!!, 20 Aug 2007
I love NOW 67 and if you like the music that's in the charts at the moment then you'll like it too.. If you don't like pop music don't buy now 67 simple as that..

Great chart songs, 13 Aug 2007
I like some songs on here. I like Kate Nash, Gwen Stefani, Reverand and the Makers. I enjoyed listening to all of them but there was some I didn't like, the one from Fergie. And a few others. I don't believe this CD is terrible, like some reviewers do. I think the variety is good because people like different things. So I've given it five stars

The best song ever is on it but what about the rest!, 12 Aug 2007
fergie feat. ludacris (Glamorous) is my favorite song ever.

The rest of the songs are not very good in my opinion not any desent beats rythms to them.

Now 64 remains the best Now in my opinion now 65 wasn't very good it was ok 66 was ok too but now 67 i would not recommend you buy unless you like alot of songs on BOTH OF THE CDS.

So as i said in my last Now Review look on the back of the case and make sure you like most of the songs then you will not have your money wasted.
If you don't look on the back you could be dissapointed.

It may be unfashionable, but you'll like it, 30 Jun 2005
I would guess that most people these days, upon seeing this album in the listings, would opine that the marketing department at EMI must be scraping the bottom of the barrel to come up with this for their "Best...In The World...Ever" series. Fans of band music will shun it for its pick-and-mix composition, and everyone else will not give it a second thought.

Unfashionable it may be, but there is nothing quite like the raw power and stirring sound of a military band playing live, unadulterated by electronics and amplification, and, while it is almost impossible to transfer this energy satisfactorily to record, to simply ignore it is to miss out on some blistering tunes and harmonies, and great music overall, and I would argue that there's a place in everybody's collection for at least one CD such as this.

Most of the famous marches from the likes of Sousa and Kenneth Alford are included, together with some pieces from 1960s/70s film and TV series; you may not recognise all the titles, but I'm sure you'll know the tunes when you hear them. Quite topically there's also a 12-minute suite of nautical themes to commemorate the Battle of Trafalgar. And of course it wouldn't be complete without the genre's finest (commercial) moment, the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards' "Amazing Grace". (Five weeks at No 1 - those were the days.)

As you will see from the tracklisting various bands are represented and, quite apart from the obvious pipes and drums, each has quite a different sound - for example, the Band of the Royal Marines sounds quite sharp and brisk, the Central Band of the RAF is warmer in tone and slightly more stately in rhythm. Recording dates also vary, even those of the same band, and this does not exactly help to give consistency of sound level and tone. However, only the four tracks from the Band of the Scots Guards, which date from 1955, really show any age.

This collection is great as a sampler, and to dip into now and again - I appreciate that not many people will listen to all two hours ten minutes of it straight through. Just now and then, stick it on, turn the volume up, and blow a few aural cobwebs away.

A mixed bag, probably like all the Now compilations, 08 Nov 2008
With 45 tracks (and available for 2.99 pounds at "another online retailer" as I type this), it would churlish to not admit that this compilation is pretty good value if you can find it at a cheap price. Unfortunately, double CD various artists compilations often suffer from "mixed bag syndrome" and this one is no different. It covers quite a wide range of musical styles, so there's bound to be at least 5 or 6 tracks here that please everyone (although not necessarily the same 5 or 6!).

So whilst I think "I Don't Feel Like Dancin'", "Chasing Cars" and "Never Be Lonely" are clear standouts for me, other people might prefer other selections. I can't really give the compilation high marks though, because there are some stinkers (Hasselhoff shouting nonsense? Really?!) and the Now folks have pulled a "double fast one" with the El Chombo track.

Yep, El Chombo's "Chacarron" track is not only drivel (complete with someone wailing like they've got indigestion), it should also be disqualified from this compilation of "45 chart hits" that the back cover of Now 65 claims. Why? Well, Now 65 was released on 20 Nov 2006 and Chacaroon was released on 11 Dec 2006 - how can something be a "chart hit" when it's not even been released yet?! Smacks of record company promotion to me and Now should be ashamed, but for all I know, they've pulled this not-yet-released trick on earlier Now releases, so people are used it, but I think it's just a con...

fantastic music album!!!!, 24 Mar 2007
this album is great,has MILLIONS of songs on and is THE album to buy.don't miss it!!

Now that's what i call great music!, 25 Feb 2007
Another great compilation from the 'NOW' team. This CD has all the latest hits on plus some great dance songs. It is an improvment on Now 64, however there are a few songs that just never seemto hit my CD player. Both of the CD's have great songs, my favourites are:-

'Ridin', 'America', 'LDN', 'Yeah Yeah', 'Love don't let me go' and 'Put you hands up for Detroite'!

There is a great mix of songs, and when you listen to it you think 'Why didn't i buy some of these songs as singles?!' A great buy and another fantastic 'NOW' CD, 10/10

My review, 20 Jan 2007
I think this is a great CD I don't presonally own it but my teenage daughter does and whenever she puts it on I just love it and once its finished I can't help but put it back to the beginning.I would reccomend this as a gift because everyone is bound to like at least 15 songs on it. I bought it on amazon as well so for first time buyers it comes really quickly (undamadged)

Now That's What I Call Music's Back Again!!!!!, 03 Jan 2007
Well, my last review about Now Compilation was about Now 63, and I didn't like that Now Comp. but with this album, I completely change my mind. Now That's What I Call Music! is back!!!! Before the releases of the disappointing Now 63 & 64, Now is back with an absolutely compilation, full of biggest hits. I like this album, because there's a lot of hits, like Girls Aloud "Something Kinda Ooooh!", Robbie Williams "LoveLight", Justin Timberlake "SexyBack", All Saints "Rock Steady", Jamelia "Something About You" or Scissor Sisters "I Don't Feel Like Dancin'". It's a perfect compilation! Welcome back Now That's What I Call Music!!!!!

The list seems to be endless, which includes big name classics such as Jungle Book, Sleeping Beauty, Mary Poppins, Bambi, Beauty and Beast and so on . Modern Disney muscial tracks are also featured such as High School musical. The Disney empire still continues to flourish as the album proves. The album is a real flavour of Disney films. The Disney movies by its nature are characterized by its musical orientation. In my mind, I cannot think of any movie excluding a music track. It is simply not the values and quality of Disney if you know what I am getting at.

If you are an avid fan and like to relieve the magic of Disney, I truly recommmend that you purchase this album. After listening to this album, I am fully convinced the album is the best on offer for Disney.

Very restful and soothing - according to the missus - and good value, too!, 11 Jun 2008
My wife (for whom I bought it) says that this CD set is very restful and soothing and I have to say that I quite like to hear the singing in the background whilst I slave away at the computer. And, of course, the great thing is that we got two CDs for about the price of one. Excellent!

Fine singing from Downside monks and choir, 25 Jan 2008
This is a lovely album of Gregorian classics, beautifully sung. And, of course, if you like the music: why not spend time at the monastery itself, which is near Bath? Why bathe in the thermal springs when one can bathe in the Divine Liturgy?

Mediocre at best, 05 Oct 2007

I'm afraid this is the usual format - 2 or 3 good songs supplemented by rubbish. Now that's what I call a rip-off AND we're on Volume 67 of the stuff! No wonder downloads are gaining in popularity - at least you get what you pay for. With this album, you get a few songs you might want and get a load of also-rans.

Brilliant!!, 20 Aug 2007
I love NOW 67 and if you like the music that's in the charts at the moment then you'll like it too.. If you don't like pop music don't buy now 67 simple as that..

Great chart songs, 13 Aug 2007
I like some songs on here. I like Kate Nash, Gwen Stefani, Reverand and the Makers. I enjoyed listening to all of them but there was some I didn't like, the one from Fergie. And a few others. I don't believe this CD is terrible, like some reviewers do. I think the variety is good because people like different things. So I've given it five stars

The best song ever is on it but what about the rest!, 12 Aug 2007
fergie feat. ludacris (Glamorous) is my favorite song ever.

The rest of the songs are not very good in my opinion not any desent beats rythms to them.

Now 64 remains the best Now in my opinion now 65 wasn't very good it was ok 66 was ok too but now 67 i would not recommend you buy unless you like alot of songs on BOTH OF THE CDS.

So as i said in my last Now Review look on the back of the case and make sure you like most of the songs then you will not have your money wasted.
If you don't look on the back you could be dissapointed.

It may be unfashionable, but you'll like it, 30 Jun 2005
I would guess that most people these days, upon seeing this album in the listings, would opine that the marketing department at EMI must be scraping the bottom of the barrel to come up with this for their "Best...In The World...Ever" series. Fans of band music will shun it for its pick-and-mix composition, and everyone else will not give it a second thought.

Unfashionable it may be, but there is nothing quite like the raw power and stirring sound of a military band playing live, unadulterated by electronics and amplification, and, while it is almost impossible to transfer this energy satisfactorily to record, to simply ignore it is to miss out on some blistering tunes and harmonies, and great music overall, and I would argue that there's a place in everybody's collection for at least one CD such as this.

Most of the famous marches from the likes of Sousa and Kenneth Alford are included, together with some pieces from 1960s/70s film and TV series; you may not recognise all the titles, but I'm sure you'll know the tunes when you hear them. Quite topically there's also a 12-minute suite of nautical themes to commemorate the Battle of Trafalgar. And of course it wouldn't be complete without the genre's finest (commercial) moment, the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards' "Amazing Grace". (Five weeks at No 1 - those were the days.)

As you will see from the tracklisting various bands are represented and, quite apart from the obvious pipes and drums, each has quite a different sound - for example, the Band of the Royal Marines sounds quite sharp and brisk, the Central Band of the RAF is warmer in tone and slightly more stately in rhythm. Recording dates also vary, even those of the same band, and this does not exactly help to give consistency of sound level and tone. However, only the four tracks from the Band of the Scots Guards, which date from 1955, really show any age.

This collection is great as a sampler, and to dip into now and again - I appreciate that not many people will listen to all two hours ten minutes of it straight through. Just now and then, stick it on, turn the volume up, and blow a few aural cobwebs away.

A mixed bag, probably like all the Now compilations, 08 Nov 2008
With 45 tracks (and available for 2.99 pounds at "another online retailer" as I type this), it would churlish to not admit that this compilation is pretty good value if you can find it at a cheap price. Unfortunately, double CD various artists compilations often suffer from "mixed bag syndrome" and this one is no different. It covers quite a wide range of musical styles, so there's bound to be at least 5 or 6 tracks here that please everyone (although not necessarily the same 5 or 6!).

So whilst I think "I Don't Feel Like Dancin'", "Chasing Cars" and "Never Be Lonely" are clear standouts for me, other people might prefer other selections. I can't really give the compilation high marks though, because there are some stinkers (Hasselhoff shouting nonsense? Really?!) and the Now folks have pulled a "double fast one" with the El Chombo track.

Yep, El Chombo's "Chacarron" track is not only drivel (complete with someone wailing like they've got indigestion), it should also be disqualified from this compilation of "45 chart hits" that the back cover of Now 65 claims. Why? Well, Now 65 was released on 20 Nov 2006 and Chacaroon was released on 11 Dec 2006 - how can something be a "chart hit" when it's not even been released yet?! Smacks of record company promotion to me and Now should be ashamed, but for all I know, they've pulled this not-yet-released trick on earlier Now releases, so people are used it, but I think it's just a con...

fantastic music album!!!!, 24 Mar 2007
this album is great,has MILLIONS of songs on and is THE album to buy.don't miss it!!

Now that's what i call great music!, 25 Feb 2007
Another great compilation from the 'NOW' team. This CD has all the latest hits on plus some great dance songs. It is an improvment on Now 64, however there are a few songs that just never seemto hit my CD player. Both of the CD's have great songs, my favourites are:-

'Ridin', 'America', 'LDN', 'Yeah Yeah', 'Love don't let me go' and 'Put you hands up for Detroite'!

There is a great mix of songs, and when you listen to it you think 'Why didn't i buy some of these songs as singles?!' A great buy and another fantastic 'NOW' CD, 10/10

My review, 20 Jan 2007
I think this is a great CD I don't presonally own it but my teenage daughter does and whenever she puts it on I just love it and once its finished I can't help but put it back to the beginning.I would reccomend this as a gift because everyone is bound to like at least 15 songs on it. I bought it on amazon as well so for first time buyers it comes really quickly (undamadged)

Now That's What I Call Music's Back Again!!!!!, 03 Jan 2007
Well, my last review about Now Compilation was about Now 63, and I didn't like that Now Comp. but with this album, I completely change my mind. Now That's What I Call Music! is back!!!! Before the releases of the disappointing Now 63 & 64, Now is back with an absolutely compilation, full of biggest hits. I like this album, because there's a lot of hits, like Girls Aloud "Something Kinda Ooooh!", Robbie Williams "LoveLight", Justin Timberlake "SexyBack", All Saints "Rock Steady", Jamelia "Something About You" or Scissor Sisters "I Don't Feel Like Dancin'". It's a perfect compilation! Welcome back Now That's What I Call Music!!!!!

Fabulous, REAL music!!, 08 Jan 2006
As a novice listener of opera, this collection has been ideal in learning to appreciate the wealth of fantastic music that is out there. I can heartily recommend this!!

The Best Selection of Opera on any Album, 10 Mar 2001
I have never found such a wonderful mixture of popular opera classics in one album. I will be pleasantly surpised if it will ever be surpassed.

Good music, but has catches, 24 May 2008
This is very good CD, but has a few catches.
Nearly all the songs are quite good, with a few brilliant ones, such as 'Golden Skans''Foundations''Destination Calabria''Smokers Outside the Hospital Doors' and 'Heavyweight Champion of the World'.

It's a very good album, but can get a bit boring after a while.
But it is still reccomended.

CD!, 23 Jul 2007
I brought this CD thinking it would be a good CD to last Me but I was wrong! Although I do think all the songs are good on the CD the problem with the "Now That's What I Call Music" Collection is they aslways come out after the songs have been around for ages so when you've heard so many songs over and over again you don't really want to be buying a CD with the dongs on! So I'm not complaining about this CD alone but all of the collection in general!
Although I would still recommened this CD and any other "Now That's What I call Music" CD's.

Wrong track listing shown on Amazon, 19 Apr 2007
Be warned that if you're buying this album and expecting to find 24 tracks on disc1 that there are only 23.
Track 22. Fergie feat. Ludacris - Glamorous isn't on the actual disc.

A breath of fresh air, 12 Apr 2007
I am a British guy living in California. The NOW CD's are a real breath of fresh air compared to the same 20 songs they play on the radio here. I love the way NOW has a great cross section of all the musical styles we are famous for. This CD is no different. Great selection NOW, keep it up.

JLB.

Good but gets old really fast!, 10 Apr 2007
When i first bought this and played it i loved it i couldn't stop listening to it for one second Now 66 has some of my favorite artists on it,But now i just dont listen to it as much as i did before mainly because i dont like all of the tracks everytime i play it i skip most of them so i only mainly listen to Track 1,3,9,13,14,15,16,17,21,22,23 thats it when there are 23 tracks on dicc one.
Disc 2 i only listen to 3 songs how sad.
So my advice to you is read the back of the case first look at the artists and songs to see if you like most of them dont just buy this like me to listen to a few songs i dont want your money to be wasted.

hmm, 22 Sep 2008
Wow. Could this album have any older tracks on it? I doubt it. These are all really old over played songs. Disapointed.

Now 70, 01 Sep 2008
Now That's What I Call Music 70

43 songs on 2 discs,

Most songs are good. I listen to this 1 song over an over again!
Worth buying!



Great track listing!, 04 Aug 2008
Well I think this NOW cd has a great track listing, maybe not quite as good as NOW 69, but very close in my opinion! I don't know why they included 'Scooter - Jumping All over the World' on here, along with a few other songs I have never heard of...but the other great tracks make it only a small negative! I think it's a shame that Madonna won't allow her tracks on here, as 4 minutes is a very popular song that would have been great on NOW 70.

Brilliant!!!!, 30 Jul 2008
Best 'Now' CD for a while. Cd 2 bettwer then Cd 1 in my opinion. Like the face that all the good songs are not just at the beginning like they usually are, but more spread out! Love it!

Now That's What I Call Music 70, 25 Jul 2008
The best now cd since now 44 and that was a long time ago anyway buy this album for Touch My Body [CD 2] In My Arms Can't Speak French [CD 2] Black & Gold Cry for You Break the Ice Scream All I Ever Wanted and Take a Bow overall i give this album a 10/10 must buy!

Quite good but can get boring soon, 25 May 2008
This is a good CD with some catchy songs on it, but they can get a bit boring after a while.
But it still has some catchy songs on it, so i'm giving it 5 stars.

Great music, 22 Apr 2008
The NOW albums always have the pick of the season: there is very little time when I haven't seen a really big song on there. You can practically only get these compilations for your entire music library, because they have all the must-have songs on board. Bit expensive at first glance, but lots of songs and good value for money. And I've really been wanting Rock Star for ages...

Great Album, 21 Apr 2008
I am definately a compilation album girl, I find when buying an artists complete album, you only end up enjoying a quater to a half of an album! This album is great, I am not hugely into modern music, but over the past few months the songs have been really good, so it is great to be able to buy an album that has all your favourites on!
Well worth buying!

Why can't they release this stuff in the U.S?, 24 Mar 2008
I didn't think Now 68 could be surpassed, but it has with this release. Just about every track is great. Why can't most of this great stuff (Duffy, Robyn, etc.) be released in the U.S.? Is our taste that bad?

Pretty good:), 24 Mar 2008
As usual cd 2 is given the entrie indie allowance, and cd one is given all of the dance tracks and hip hop. Though I have pretty much dowloaded all of the better songs on the album, it is a good mix this time.

Great Fun, 10 Aug 2008
This is a great CD for kids. I've bought a few as presents and am told they get played again and again. My kids love it.

The best... ever?, 19 Jun 2007
This isn't bad but myself and Doreen would beg to differ. After hours of listening pleasure, we have come to the conclusion that the Luciano Pavarotti's Disney Album is the best in the world... ever.

The best Disney album on offer in my books, 27 Jan 2007
The Best Disney Album in the World...Ever is the best Disney's album on offer in retail outlets. I do not think any alternative Disney's album can surpass this complilation. The album comprises three discs. All the memorable musical tracks are included in the album that you can listen to time and time again, for your own pleasure and to relight the magical moments of Disney at you home. The list seems to be endless, which includes big name classics such as Jungle Book, Sleeping Beauty, Mary Poppins, Bambi, Beauty and Beast and so on .
