Here are some customer reviews of
Now That's What I Call Music! 15
: NOW 15 keeps you bouncing every minute. From Luda's Stand Up to that cool wannabe ..., this disk does no wrong, with a lot of great songs. Some noticable songs, many incredibly current and up-to-date:
It's My Life, Toxic, Stand Up, Holidae Inn, Gigolo,(Me, Myself, & I), Don't Want You Back, With You, The First Cut Is The Deepest, Hold On, and Feeling This. This CD has a solid consistency, with many of the better songs spread out along its 20 tracks. The only parts that are missing from this that would make it perfect are "Yeah", "Hey Ya", and "She Wants To Move." Overall, a great variety album with something for everyone.
It's definitely NOT now 57, but it's very close. Not by number of tracks (20 vs. 45) but by quality of songs. Now 57 has a lot of songs I don't care about. Every song on this album is at least OK.
NO DOUBT: IT'S MY LIFE (B+)
Their best so far. This song is really good.
BRITNEY SPEARS: TOXIC (B+)
She really sounds...uh...well...no comment in this song. (Hey, it's better than Everytime; that's like William Hung!)Still a good song overall.
LUDACRIS FEAT. SHAWNA: STAND UP (A-)
Ha. This song is extremely catchy. When I move you move, just like that. When I move you move, just like that. When I move you move, just like that. Hell yeah & dj bring that back. Irresistable.
CHINGY FEAT. LUDACRIS & SNOOP DOGG: HOLIDAE IN (A-)
Well, it's better than Right Thurr at least. Good rap. Good stuff hurr.
WESTSIDE CONNECTION FEAT. NATE DOGG: GANGSTA NATION (B)
This song is downright irritating, but my friend plays it so much inbetween classes I have come to like the ever-playing organ. Also, Nate Dogg's rap is good.
SARAH CONNOR: BOUNCE (B+)
This one is good, but it is obviously a rip off Mary J Blige's Family Affair song (the music). Good song.
BLACK EYED PEAS: SHUT UP (A)
This song is not Where Is The Love but at least it's good. Fergie can definitely sing, and it shows here. I really like to sing the chorus.
NICK CANNON FEAT. R KELLY: GIGOLO (A-)
The song was good when I had no idea what a Gigolo was.
BEYONCE: ME MYSELF & I (A)
Heheheh, I love singing the chorus. It may be five minutes long, but whatever. It's catchy and for a first Jay-Z isn't in it.
BABY BASH FEAT. PERLA CRUZ & RUSSEL LEE: SHORTY DOOWOP (B+)
Some Japanese music was thrown in here. A good car song but Baby Bash sounds like he is high in this song and the guest singers just aren't that memorable.
EAMON: I DON'T WANT YOU BACK (A-)
I'm rating this song by the unedited version. The edited version is well, all the fun is taken out of it. Now it's just a cheesy breakup song.
JESSICA SIMPSON: WITH YOU (A-)
She may be the "dumbest simpson on tv" but this song is really good. So much better than her previous crap.
NORAH JONES: SUNRISE (A-)
Mellow, but well sang and a great chill-out song. Now I know why she came.
SHERYL CROW: FIRST CUT IS THE DEEPEST (A-)
I like this one. Well sang, you know, very good.
FEFE DOBSON: EVERYTHING (A-)
This one is good and well sang. At first I had no interest in it when I first reviewed the cd, but after a full day of listening to the cd my thoughts changed.
3 DAYS GRACE: I HATE EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU (B)
This song is ok. I like the intro music and the chorus is good.
BLINK-182: FEELING THIS (B+)
Not their best, but its still good. Their new album is just not like them at all. They should go back to the more innapropriate stuff.
GOOD CHARLOTTE: HOLD ON (B+)
This song is much too depressing, but it's still a good song.
FUEL: FALLS ON ME (A)
It is not Hemmorage, but it is their best since then. Great song: nice vocals, great music, etc.
FIVE FOR FIGHTING: 100 YEARS (A)
His voice gets much too high in the song, but the piano is probably the catchiest riff ever. The lyrics are great. They saved the best for last...and second to last. Overall, the cd gets an A-. Get it.
 I must say that this installment of the "Now" series starts off really strong with two of the most awesome tracks of the last few months and those are "It's My Life" from No Doubt and the incredibly infectious comeback hit "Toxic" from Britney Spears. Too bad the good tracks do not keep coming. You then get the repetitive and annoying "Stand Up" from Ludicrous and the horrible "Westside Connection" which I had never even heard before. Sarah Conner's "Bounce" is ok, but is an obvious rip-off of Mary J Blige's "Family Affair"....just listen to the beat. More boring tracks follow including one from the queen of overrated Beyonce which is a snore of an R&B ballad. Eamon's cleaned up "Don't Want You back" is actually a pretty good song and starts a redeeming period in the middle of the collection. Jessica Simpson's smash hit "With You" which has dominated pop radio is a nice addition *although over-played.* Some variety comes into play with Norah Jones's mellow "Sunrise" and Sheryl Crow's big hit "The First Cut Is the Deepest." Then with the exception of "Toxic", the other best track on the album is Fefe Dobson's catchy ballad "Everything" which unfortinately has not managed to become much of a hit...too bad. Of the rock tracks, the Blink 182 song and Good Charlotte's offerings are ok. As usual, this "Now" is ok, but still gets ruined by a handful of bad tracks. The early "Now" albums are still the best. Pop music lately is still being dominated by played out hip hop. Hopefully the tides will turn soon.
 please dont buy or listen to this lousy dance cd full of disgusting songs by fluff like chingy,britney and jessica simpson.avoid at all costs.
