[Apple Pro Underwear]

[ajprice]

Yes, one double cassette.

Now 20, with stuff like:

Dizzy - Vic Reeves & the Wonder Stuff
The Fly - U2
Sit Down - James
Go - Moby
Set Adrift On Memory Bliss - PM Dawn

35 tracks in all, from back in the days of 1991

only 11? think again

for the record (pun intended), i have never owned a single one of them. i remember the first one being released though, which makes me feel old

The original U.K. series has 53. The U.S. version is at 11.

The only one I have is the Christmas compilation, "Now That's What I Call Christmas." It's the best collection of Christmas tunes that I've found. It's got John Lennon's "Happy Xmas," Springsteen's "Santa Claus is Comin' to Town," Band Aid's "Do They Know It's Christmas?", and a decent sampling of old-school stuff like Nat King Cole, Bing Crosby, Johnny Mathis, Brenda Lee, Elvis Presley, etc.

I don't have any of the regular ones because I was never into the Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears or Destiny's Child.

Lets see, buy the pop stars' CD for one or two liked songs; or by the NTWICM CD with 4-6 liked songs.

For those into "pop" music, it's not really a difficult decision.

However, once upon a time:

[MacGorilla]

My daughter has every single one and while we were in England in the spring she got #50 and was thrilled to death.

[tinrib]

I had Now 6.

IIRC, it had among other tunes, Star Trekkin' (the firm?), la isla bonita (madonna), under the boardwalk (Bruce Willis!?!), Hot Chocolate, I wanna dance with somebody (Whitney Houston) and some other crap.

[juanvaldes]

'now that's what I call crap'

[:XI:]

i think we've got Now 12 on double vinyl.
scratched to hell. or maybe it's supposed to sound like that...

Hey Philzilla, same here. I remember my cousin buying the first one and getting all excited, whilst I of course just sat back with detached indifference. Wouldn't ever see me with one of those.

[Nonsuch]

Your topic made me smile, as I frequently see those commercials and think, "Who buys that crap?".

Answer = someone other than me.
