Pretty Good! July 2, 2008

The last "Now" CD I bought was Now 6. This is the only one really that interested me since then, and I like most of the songs on it.
If you listen to Top-40 radio, and don't want to buy Britney Spears' new album, but like "Piece of Me," for example, it's good.

But if you've already bought Alicia Keys and Sara Bareillis, it's not that worthwhile.
Overall, though, it's a great album with lots of fun hits.

:) Awesome April 4, 2008
This CD is probably the best of the "Now" series so far!!!! at least it's my favorite. I listen to it practically every day and it has ALL my favorite songs on it!!!

I was wondering how they pick the songs that are going to go on the cd's. I know it's something like the most popular songs on the top 200 charts or something but there are some songs which I think could have been on here which aren't. Oh well it's still great!!!!

I recommend this CD for pretty much everybody because it has all different genres of music so everyone will like something off it.

*****!! :)
