Comment: I hate these CD's...they contain the most over-played songs from the radio and a couple duds; however my tween daughter loves it.

Summary: Great for a Juke Box
Comment: I've never been a big fan of mixes that pull their material from such a wide spectrum, and I will never be able to listen to this CD straight through, but I'm buying this and two other NOW discs for our Juke Box at work (a bar downtown Milwaukee, WI).

For that use - it works well, as customers come and go through the coarse of the night, the style of music played changes. Bad songs are good for a Juke Box (if someone plays them) as they get people off of their stools to play something they like. When the the bar is filled with people of widely different music preferences the Juke is still playing LONG after I'm done cleaning up for the night - HOURS after the last customer was kicked out...

This CD will work well for a Juke Box, but to play straight through at home or in the car it will have limited value - you'll get more milage pulling the songs you like off of it and burning your own mix CD.

Summary: Putrid
Comment: I think this series perpetuates bad music. Observe- If I were in a band, and we somehow got famous, I would be livid if my music somehow wound up on this or on Kidz Bop. Therefore, Musicians (who care about music and fanbase rather than money and sales) are inadvertantly discouraged to make music that sells!

Of course, this is not exactly the case, but I would make sure my record contract included a clause to keep me off of these albums, if that's possible

Summary: 1,2,3...22,23,24!
Comment: It's not the first CD, but the 24th! Now 24 has all of the recent "chart-topping hits"!

The first song is "Fergalicious" from Fergie. I would much rather just skip over that. Then it's Rihanna featuring Sean Paul with "Break it Off". Anyone who loves listening to them separately loves listening to them together. Next, "Say it Right" by Nelly Furtado, a slower song that is forgetable. Singing "Irreplaceable", Beyonce has hit the charts once again. A somewhat slow but catchy song is okay for me. Number five is "My Love" by Justin Timberlake. Again, I would much rather just skip over that. Akon appears with Snoop Dog singing "I Wanna Love You". This song was a very popular song, but gets a little old after a while. Bow Wow, Chris Brown, and Johnta Austin sing "Shortie Like Mine". This song is a very interesting song to listen to. Llyod and Lil Wayne with "You" is just another song. Two thumbs down for me. Song number nine is "Promise". Ciara has also hit the charts, but I don't treasure this song. Omarion appears with "Ice Box". I would definitely skip over that song. Chris Brown reappears singing "Say Goodbye" on track eleven. If you like that style of music, then you might enjoy this song. Corinne Bailey Rae sings "Put Your Records On". A slower song, but does speed up and slow down throughout the song. It could grow on you, though. Lily Allen with "Smile" appears on track thirteen. Knowing whom Lily Allen is and listening to her all of the time, is interesting to know that she made it on the charts (and on this CD) for being a fairly new artist. "Suyddenly I See" by KT Tunstall is a unique song that really stands out on this CD. I love listening to "Here (in Your Arms)" by Hellogoodbye. It is somewhat slow, but is very different. Track number sixteen is "Face Down" by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus. This song has a short story beneath the music; I love it! With constantly listening to The Fray, it doesn't surprise me that "How To Save A Life" is on the CD. A very sad and slow song is also amazing at the same time. Another sad but amazing song "If Everyone Cared" by Nickelback, which is absolutely amazing. Song after song, Nickelback is always perfecting them to once again hit the charts. On season five of American Idol, Chris Daughtry sings "It's Not Over" which amazes the "crowd" once again! The All-American Rejects appear on track twenty to end with "It Ends Tonight". It fits in perfectly with the sad and slower songs.

If you enjoy pop music, (or even rock or hip-hop), you would definitely enjoy this CD.
