NOW Thats What I Call Music! 4

Product Information

It goes from “Lean wit It, Rock wit It” by Dem Franchize Boyz to “Stay Fly” by Three 6 Mafia to “I’m Sprung” by T-Pain. The band is on five Now albums, which is way more than other rock bands like the Killers (one time), Radiohead (one time), Kings of Leon (zero times), and the White Stripes (zero times—not even “Seven Nation Army” is music). This was a mistake: “Move It Like This” did not chart, and as of today, still does not have more than a million plays on Spotify. The Essential Score for each album was determined by rating each song’s essentialness on a scale of 1 to 10. Well, they’re a band that sounds very much like Dashboard Confessional, which—welcome to another round of “I Can’t Believe That’s Not Music!

The thesis of “Chanté’s Got a Man” is “Oh dang, it’s really too bad your boyfriend is cheating on you, but guess what: I’m in a very stable, rewarding relationship. This means two things: That some of the album’s iconic songs surprisingly didn’t chart very well, and that the highs of the album were dragged down by much lower lows (I’m looking at you, “Everything” by Fefe Dobson). Since “How You Remind Me” landed on Now 10, Nickelback has appeared on 12 editions of Now—more than 20 percent of the time.It was very difficult choosing the most essential song off Now 6, which tells you why it’s ranked so high. It also, for some reason, has Juvenile’s “Slow Motion,” marking one of the only times Now correctly classified rap as music. on October 27, 1998, was a turning point, a moment when the chaos of the auditory world was silenced; when consensus was reached by the mere declaration that nay, this—a collection of 17 contemporary songs—was music. The second Now is a wondrous snapshot of popular music in 1999: It has Britney, the Backstreet Boys, “Closing Time” by Semisonic, “You Get What You Give” by New Radicals, the Blackstreet and Mýa song from the Rugrats movie, U2, Sublime, Jay-Z, and that spoken-word song about wearing sunscreen. In the universe of A Star Is Born (assuming that Now exists in that universe), I’m guessing that “Maybe It’s Time” ended up in one of the country slots on an early Now.

Here’s a question I’ve been waiting all day to ask: Is Ally, Lady Gaga’s character from A Star Is Born, music? As far as I can tell, Now is FAR BETTER at selecting the best pop songs, and when they miss on the back half of the albums, they really miss. But tossing a meaningless also-ran on the next compilation is a nice way to say, “Hey, my bad, Sisqó. From “We Can’t Stop” to “Blurred Lines,” from “Get Lucky” to “Summertime Sadness”—even on down to “Sail” by AWOLNATION— Now 48 is a magical listen.I’m beginning to suspect that T-Pain has a problem interpreting the messages sent to him by various strippers.

NOW That’s What I Call Music 4 [UK] - Genius

We’re getting into the nitty gritty now, where every remaining Now has a valid argument for it being the best ever—just over 10 points separate Now 4 from the very top. In response to these truly harsh, obviously misguided snubs, Lil Jon clearly sat down with the then-unknown DJ Snake to make a song that was so music it would eventually drive everyone mad. Also, on LMFAO’s 2011 album Sorry for Party Rocking—look at this cover art—the song “Sorry for Party Rocking” appears before “Party Rock Anthem.Now 60 is the worst-case scenario for that strategy, as it features an irrelevant song from the “All About That Bass” girl, a useless track from the “livin’ like we’re renegades” band, and an even worse song from the guy who sings in seven-year intervals. It’s a tradition that began when Now 11 included “Days Go By” by Dirty Vegas, or as you probably know it, “that song that was in that Mitsubishi commercial with the dancing lady. Now 55 captures the apex of DJ-dominated pop music with “Where Are Ü Now,” Major Lazer’s “Lean On,” David Guetta’s “Hey Mama,” and DJ Snake’s “You Know You Like It. Have you ever listened to the lyrics of “Something Just Like This,” the Chainsmokers/Coldplay song that’s on Now 63?
