This volume of the chart-survey series is its best yet, offering stellar examples of nearly every subgenre it approaches. Interestingly, the platinum machine's eighth outing is also its most subtle (the take-your-time sultriness of Aaliyah's "Rock the Boat," Usher's "U Got It Bad") and teasingly offbeat (Gorillaz's dub-wise sleeper "Clint Eastwood," the Wiseguys' noise-hop "Start the Commotion") moments. Whether this indicates a trend toward the return of a higher-quality singles chart has yet to be determined, but save for a small handful of crummily derivative nontunes from Jessica Simpson, Fuel, and 3 Doors Down, the music here makes a good case for itself. Could a broadening definition of what's mainstream be fomenting? Caveats: 'N Sync's "Pop" is included in a remix that bleeds the record of some of its novelty, while Jennifer Lopez's "I'm Real" appears without the Ja Rule rap that helped lift it to bestseller status. --Rickey Wright

All in all, I loved this cd, and think it was definately worth the purchase!

Great Now CD!
This CD is the best in the NOW collection so far! It has some great songs on here especially the first 11 ones! Here's my rating for all 20 songs:

1. "Bootylicious"- Destiny's Child: This song is getting kind of old, but still one of their greatest songs. I would've liked it if they put their song "Emotions" on here. 4.5/5 stars

2. "Pop"- N'Sync: This is one of the best songs by this group so far! 5/5 stars

3. "I'm Real"- Jennifer Lopez: This song is good but the version with Ja Rule is good, too! A wonderful song! 5/5 stars

4. "Stutter"- Joe and Mystikal: This song is average, but definitely not one of my favorites on here. 3.5/5 stars

5. "Someone To Call My Lover"- Janet Jackson: One of her best songs after "All For You" which is on NOW 7. 5/5 stars

6. "AM to PM"- Christina Milian: This song is a good dance song! 4/5 stars

7. "A Little Bit"- Jessica Simpson: This is an awesome song by her after her song "Irrestible". 5/5 stars

8. "Crush"- Mandy Moore: This song is beautiful even though I don't like her that much. 4/5 stars

9. "Rock The Boat"- Aaliyah: She has a beautiful singing voice and it's so sad to hear that she died. I'm glad they put this song on here because it's going to be the last song they put in the NOW collections. 5/5 stars

10. "U Got It Bad"- Usher: This song is beautiful! 5/5 stars

11. "More Than That"- Backstreet Boys: This song is old but it's very beautiful. 5/5 stars

12. "Clint Eastwood"- The Gorillaz: This song is just ok, but definitely not one of the best on here. 3/5 stars

13. "Start The Commotion"- The Wise Guys: This is another good song but not one of the ones I like. 3/5 stars

14. "Me Myself and I"- Jive Jones: This song is good and good to dance to. 3.5/5 stars

15. "I'm A Believer"- Smash Mouth: This song is a lot better than the Monkees' version. 4/5 stars

16. "Fat Lip"- Sum 41: I don't like this song at all. I wonder how it became so popular. 2/5 stars

17. "The Rock Show"- Blink-182: This song is good even though I really don't like this group that much. 3/5 stars

18. "Bad Day"- Fuel: I don't like this group at all and it's a really bad song. 1.5/5 stars

19. "Be Like That"- 3 Doors Down: This is another ok song that I don't like that much. 2/5 stars

20. "Walk On"- U2: This song is good to listen to! 3.5/5 stars

So all the songs seem pretty good on here except for a few of them. It's a good CD and I can't wait for NOW 9!
