I like it! I've been a huge fan of the Now CDs. It's a cheaper way to get the music that you want without with just the latest hits since it holds 20 songs for only $9.99. That is cheaper than buying the songs in mp3 format which costs an average of 99 cents per song. You got the full CD music quality without the degraded quality you will get on an mp3 format for less the price of the mp3 version.
Worth to listen Okay, here is my song-by-song review and the whole album review:
1. Leona Lewis- Bleeding Love Grade: A Original Position: Now 28 Comment: This whole song is good. It is a good start despite not that rock.
2. Britney Spears- Break The Ice Grade: B Original Position: Now 27 Comment: I never hear Britney Spears sing this type of song before. It is a new but very good try for her. It was always worthy that a singer could sing many different kinds of songs. For the grade, I would give a better grade if this was a brand new song. However, it wasn't the case.
3. Cherish featuring Yung Joc- Killa Grade: A+ Original Position: Now 28 Comment: This is a new and a tremendous song. It makes me want to listen to this song over and over again.
4. Lil Waynbe featuring Static Major- Lollipop Grade: A- Original Position: Now 28 Comment: This is a very sweet song.
5. Ray J. featuring Yung Berg- Sexy Can I? Grade: B+ Original Position: Now 27 Comment: The song itself was so great. However, this song isn't a new song. Therefore, the grade will automatically go down a bit.
6. Chris Brown- With You Grade: C+ Original Position: Now 27 Comment: This isn't a good song. I personally don't like it.
7. Flex featuring Belinda- Te Quiero Grade: C Original Position: Now 28 Comment: This is not a good song. However, if this isn't new, it is even worse.
8. Natasha Bedingfield- Pocketful Of Sunshine Grade: B- Original Position: Now 27 Comment: It's okay. She sings okay. However, she can sing better that I expected.
9. Jordin Sparks duet with Chris Brown- No Air Grade: B Original Position: Now 27 Comment: This isn't a new song. However, she sings good. Therefore, it has an okay grade. I believe this 2007 American Idol has the potential in her singing career.
10. Colbie Caillat- Realize Grade: B+ Original Position: Now 27 Comment: Despite this isn't a new song, I personally like this song because this CD finally reaches the first slow song in this album. Sweet!
11. Onerepublic- Stop And Stare Grade: C- Original Position: Now 27 Comment: This is not a good song whatsoever. It's not in my taste and it's not new too.
12. John Mayer- Say Grade: B- Original Position: Now 27 Comment: It's so-so. It doesn't provide me with huge surprises.
13. Flyleaf- All Around Me Grade: D+ Original Position: Now 18 Comment: This is really old and dull. I personally don't like this song.
14. Metro Station- Shake It Grade: A- Original Position: Now 27 Comment: Although this is not a new one, it is an exceptionally good song.
15. Fall Out Boy featuring John Mayer- Beat it Grade: B Original Position: Now ? Comment: None
16. Lifehouse-Whatever It Takes Grade: B- Original Position: Now 27 Comment: It's just so-so. Nothing big surprise.
17. Daughtry- Feels Like Tonight Grade: D Original Position: Now 22 Comment: Oh no, this is old. It's more like making me going back to the past.
18. Gavin DeGraw- In Love With A Girl Grade: A Original Position: Now 28 Comment: It's a new and cool song by Gavin. Keep it up!
19. Trace Adkins- You're Gonna Miss This Grade: A+ Original Position: Now 28 Comment: It is a very relaxed song. It is slow and tremendous. Very enjoying indeed!
20. Taylor Swift- Our Song Grade: B- Original Position: Now 23 Comment: It's okay. She just sings okay.

Good CD I like the songs on this CD as well as the quality. Typical Now material with a good variety.
A great mix of Songs A good CD of the latest and hottest songs. Several #1 songs in the set. The cd ranges from Rap to Country to Pop to Rock. If you want a collection of the latest hits and you don't want to spend a lot on purchasing all the different cd's a good collection to own. A solid collection like the rest of the cd's in this series.
Not NOW, Pure Dreck... Britney Spears?? Really?? You really were'nt seriously considering buying this collection of tripe, were you? A baby playing with a spatula and a set of pots and pans sounds WAaay better than any "song" on this CD. You could even make this "music" yourself: get a drum machine and a 14-year old girl to provide the vocals and the lyrics. Talent, shmalent - its not necessary nowadays, just make sure the girl can screech on cue (and is cute and white). And.. *Presto*, instant top-40 disposable pop hit. Now you don't have to buy this garbage anymore.
