My other favourites include Where Is The Love, Sweet Dreams My LA Ex, Slow, Crazy In Love, Hole In The Head, Superstar, Pretty Green Eyes, Mixed Up World, Something Beautiful (I know people don't have a lot of time for this but it's got a quirky singalong charm. Michael had failed in his court wrangle with Sony after accusing it of "professional slavery"; his contract was bought out by Virgin Records.

Other highlights include "Mad World" by Michael Andrews, "Rock Your Body" by Justin Timberlake and "Are You Ready for Love" by Elton John.Tracks with an asterisk (*) next to their title have also been included in special releases from the series. The equivalent Hits 57 wasn't as great, though I bought and loved the companion music videos DVD (the only time a numbered Hits album had a DVD I think!

Shout out to Delta Goodrem's Innocent Eyes - my favourite song of the year and obviously she was on the Hits albums instead but I would have LOVED to see this on Now. This collection includes tracks from Wiz Khalifa, Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, Selena Gomez, Meghan Trainor with John Legend, Ed Sheeran and many others. It’s fairly standard Justin Timberlake, with a danceable beat and irritating falsetto all over the place. Really strong volume with very little filler - and a lot of my favourite pop singles of the decade on it to boot.In fact the latter was my favourite song of 2003 not by Delta Goodrem, such a sorely underrated track that I wish had stayed in the charts a little longer. There are a few artist who made their only series appearance on this volume, and these were Lumidee, Stacie Orrico, Phixx, D-Side, Mark Owen (as a solo artist), Joe Budden, Rishi Rich Project, Starsailor and Michael Andrews. Let’s see what would have been played at the club I went out to later that night (spoiler: none of the following, ’cause I’m pretty sure I went to Opium rock club, which didn’t play a lot of chart music). My daughter was pleased with it and has asked me to keep a look out for a few others that she is missing from her collection. So here we have stinkers (Sophie Ellis-Bextor, DSide, Phixx) and some pretty good stompers (S Club 8, Emma, Ultrabeat, Louise) and then the OK crowd (Girls Aloud, Atomic Kitten).

I haven't played myself for 20+ years but the tone of the guitar was so sweet and the action so easy to play that I couldn't resist. On this volume, we were introduced for the first time to artists like Black Eyed Peas, Rachel Stevens (as a solo artist), Fatman Scoop, Beyoncé (as a solo artist and not just a featured artist), Lemar, Ultrabeat and also Angel City. it goes to a collection you can get more of these now cds and it is well worth trying to collect all of the set if you can as they normally have all the number ones that have been at number 1 in the charts. Kylie Minogue (I'm one of those weird Kylie fans that actually loved and bought the 'Body Language' album.On This Day In HistoryAmerican soul singer Arthur Conley died of intestinal cancer in Ruurlo, The Netherlands at the age of 57.

Blue's Guilty is behind there and then some hip hop stuff is thrown in there, of course the good (Beyonce, Jamelia, Lumidee, Sugababes) and the not so good (Fatman Scoop, Liberty X, Javine). Rachel Stevens (I am obsessed with Rachel's solo career more than is probably healthy, but singles like this were why. The first track, "See You Again" was made for the 2015 film "Furious 7" as a tribute to late actor, Paul Walker. I had about five pairs of those ridiculously baggy jeans in various colours – I am so glad they disappeared with the ’00s.Most have those would have been missed for not being big enough hits or because the artist had other songs on this volume I guess. Then once again it's mostly all about the production for my disc 2 favourite as I have chosen Richard X feat. The rival Hits series, which by this time was up to Hits 57, was nearing it's end when less label politics would come into effect. Next we come upon Amy Studt, which I'm not sure if this song is even considered a hit, and Texas, see Amy Studt. There are a few filler tracks which was to be expected, but even these aren't really that bad to listen to.
