4.0 out of 5 stars A whole lot of good music waiting to be discovered, July 27, 2006

This review is from: Now 64 (Audio CD)

Another UK compilation of 43 tracks, some of which you will be very familiar with, and some you've probably never heard before, at least in the USA. The UK "Now Music" series are usually much more up to date than the US series, with much more music to boot, and yes, they cost quite a bit more.

I've included the names of the artistes below, and as you can see, there are hot songs from Gnarls Barkley, Nelly Furtado, Pink, Keane, Snow Patrol, Bon Jovi, Fall Out Boy, Rihanna, The Black Eyed Peas, Pussycat Dolls, Ne-Yo, Sergio Mendes, Christina Milian and others.

There's an updated version of Queen's "Don't Stop Me Now" by McFly, and a sample of Jimmy Somerville's "Smalltown Boy" or Bronski Beat's "Run Away" (take your pick) on "Tell Me Why" by Supermode. Also look for Beverley Knight's version of Janis Joplin's "Piece of My Heart" and Rockwell's "Somebody's Watching Me" as performed by Beatfreakz.

There's lots of good music here just waiting to be discovered, such as track 9 by The Feeling, which reminds one of "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" at one point, - music lovers won't want to miss this one.
