But so much epic stuff on here too. Britney, Shania Twaint, Mambo No.5, Eiffel 65, Robbie, Sixpence None The Richer, Moloko, "Sun Is Shining", Jamiroquai, Tom Jones, Bran Van 3000, "What I Am", S Club, "Mickey", Ann Lee (haha), Vengaboys, ATB, "The Launch", Groove Armada, WAMDUE PROJECT!, Alice Deejay...this album basically made me what I am today.

Greatest...album...ever.

if there's somebody calling me on she's the one yeah she's the one is one of my least favourite robbie songs though.

There are much better:

lazy days don't let them get you down and we will have and we will have a jolly good time

i don't mind doing it for the kids i'm gonna give it all of my love and it's gonna take up all i've my love come down from the ceiling

somewhere beyond the sea, she's there watching for me my lover stands on golden sands and watches the ships that go sailing do do do do do

i don't wanna rock dj when't it gonna stop dj

if ur willing 2 change well well let love be ur energy

when the shark bites with his teeth deer scarlet billows start to spread

we're closer than ricky to confessing he's gay we'll start out at strinky's and maybe groucho life is gonna be a wow wow wee for my shadow and meeeee

and they want us to grow up but we don't wanna get a job baby it's alright baby it's alriight it's only us.

The rest are top notch though. Replace Robbie Williams with Sash! and it's a smashing CD

Best robbie williams song is rudebox, next question.

[TheRossWalker]

This is epic as fuck. Still occupies pride of place in my CD collection.

Might have to go listen to it now.

[James Casey]

It's good, but having Livin' la Vida Loca after Mambo no. 5 would make it that much better. Never failed me in my disco days.

What is this, anyway, mid-1999? Seems to cover a lot of the year as Britney was spring time, and Tragedy was much later in the year I thought.

Still, 42 songs and I reckon I know probably 35 of them. That's a shockingly strong lineup for a Now... Must have been the last one before RnB went mainstream

[AnnIQ Edison]

Released November 1999.

And according to Wikipedia it is also the Largest selling NOW CD ever and the 46th largest selling CD in UK History.

That is very impressive

[Jack_Attack]

Best robbie williams song is rudebox, next question.

Indeed. In all seriousness though, Come Undone. That Now CD makes me feel about 9 years old.

[Cactus Drags]

Tin Tin Out's track with Emma Bunton was quality, I have the single somewhere.

Also, the Stereo Mike thing is from Drinking in LA, yes? I need to track that song down.

Not bad for a pop compilation, I think I know all but 5 of those, and can probably tolerate most of them.

[Matt]

That CD was the first "Now" I ever owned, I still have it actually. It is sex.

Best Robbie song is Monsoon and I won't hear another word on the matter.

[METALMAN]

Tin Tin Out's track with Emma Bunton was quality, I have the single somewhere.

Yeah I really like that song. It's on my iPod actually.

[NobBe Nobbs]

Oh fuck, I just got a massive dose of nostalgia and I love it. Greatest thread.

[Blue Rosler]

I have around half of those songs on my iPod. I think it's around 21-22
