I remember the cover art better than most of those songs…
I had 26 on cassette. It had some bangers.
I was there when they started these.
I also remember Kidz Bop. Basically the same thing, but the songs were sung by children and way worse.
I loved spamming these two bars with kidz bop on the AMI app because one was a club that lost their remote to skip, and the other was an old timers towny bar, I suspect they just didn’t know how to do it. Just the immediate hate and anger out of the towny bar, omg. It’s like I can still taste it.
I remember them being in the single digits.
My back hurts.
Same. When I saw it had reached triple digits I spontaneously cremated.
I didn’t even know they made it past 20 or so.
Me too. I was shocked when I saw one in the teens, like how did this last that long?
I’m young!! I’m finally young!! I don’t remember anything before 40 something!
I’m old enough to remember the first, when it didn’t even have a number. I also owned one of the single-digit ones. God I’m old
I remember the first one and didn’t buy that one either. By then I had already been a metal head for good several years.
Hello fellow old. I too got the first one. For my kids.
It’s ok we’re wise now
Well that is a bit shocking.
I didn’t realise they got past 10…
I remember the first two quite well…
The original “Now that’s what I call music!”
I still have “Now That’s What I Call Music volume 2” starts with Radio Gaga. A double cassette.
I’ve got volume 1 and it’s just two rocks you hit together
Oh now that is a TUNE
Fucking hell it got this far? Probably like 20-30!
37 to about 45 was my era.
However, the first ones Insaw were 8 and 11 in my parents vinyl collection. I may have them at my house now, not sure.
Can’t remember the exact number but I remember first discovered them on an ad break and they said it has Starships by Nicki Minaj. She is full of shit but that song feels nostalgic to me still.
“Now that’s what I call music” was in the house, along with some number of its single-digit brethren - though they weren’t brand new at the time. The oldest one I have any memory of seeing advertised on TV etc was “Now 13”.
I think I had Now 54 on CD. 2003 apparently!
Maybe 20 or 27, some of the 40s look familiar too.
How did they get up to 120??!
Depends if you’re american or british. America’s volume one didnt appear until 1998, 15 years after volume 1 in the UK.
I had no idea!
NOW you do
