In November 2018, the Now team took over the " 100 Hits" brand from Demon Music Group, and in 2019 and 2020, the Special Editions series was effectively rested while 24 different Now 100 Hits compilations were issued in very quick succession, until the end of November 2020. I also think the introduction of downloads counting towards the chart after April seemed to boost urban at the expense of dance for some reason.

album features cuts by Calvin Harris featuring Rihanna, Sia featuring Kendrick Lamar, Britney Spears and the actor-turned-musician Hailee Steinfeld. Initially, a special edition of a Now compilation was quite rare, and between 1994 and 2002, there weren't any released at all. David Bowie’s early ‘The Laughing Gnome’ is celebrated, as is the King, Elvis Presley, with the hugely successful ‘Wooden Heart’. Brian McFadden – Irish Son (a curious one actually, how did Almost Here get on here when neither Real To Me or any Delta singles had made it before? This edition of the long-running NOW series shows how pop artists are borrowing ideas from one another, with rock stalwarts Coldplay dipping into EDM on “Hymn for the Weekend,” while dance diva Hailee Steinfeld and electro duo Grey strip down for the Zedd-assisted “Starving.

Flip it over for classic hits from The Righteous Brothers, The Walker Brothers, Dionne Warwick plus Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin with ‘Je T’aime Moi Non Plus’.

Now Dance 92 (2 November 1992) Uniquely, 2-LP/2-MC/CD* with 12" mixes,*single CD with abridged tracklisting and 7" edits.Peter Kay really made this song come to life with an all star audience in the music video all for comic relief.

For the 30th anniversary of Now in 2013 and the release of Now 100 in Summer 2018, the first Now album was re-compiled and re-issued. The 1990s Yearbook series contains a new retro-90s logo design and artwork which also complements its sister decade series.Some of them have unique track listings and are not related to similarly themed collections already issued on compact disc, however, more recent releases have been 'selections' taken from a larger CD collection (Rock, for example). The Yearbook series are 4-CD and 3-LP vinyl sets, each representing a year of music, which launched in June 2021. The first sixteen volumes were all released on the same date, with the final four being issued four months later.

Kylie Minogue (for me, one of the last truly great/transcendant singles she did for a good five years. Some of the Special Editions have identical names, although a few of these titles are followed by their year of release. In a nutshell, Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder aside, it's difficult to create an album that has winning tracks from number one to 17. A triple-CD only release, Yearbook Extra: The Collectors Edition, is issued a few weeks later; these include lesser known tracks and more songs by big artists included on the main album and they are released only in standard gatefold wallet packaging.From 2003, and until 2010, there was one special edition released each year, covering a decade (80s, 90s and 00s), or a cross section of big hits celebrating the Now series ( Now Decades, Now Years, Now Dance) - however, from 2011, they became much more frequent, and in 2017, there were fifteen different titles released. Other omissions from this era included hits by Green Day, Angel City, Xzibit, Britney Spears, Manic Street Preachers, Rooster, Jennifer Lopez and Natasha Bedingfield. A further release, The Final Chapter, a deluxe 4-CD and 3-LP set, was issued in December 2022, rounding off the Yearbook years 1980 to 1984.
