Fun fact about Halo: Ryan Tedder (OneRepublic frontman) wrote the song and the song itself is beautiful, soulful, heartwarmimg, happy and sweet as heaven 😇🥰😍 whenever I think of, listen to and talk about OneRepublic, I just think about how underrated they are and the fact Ryan is down to earth 💗
@@robertatkinson1347 indeed 👍 plus I really miss those cool eccentric costumes that she used to wear (e.g, the iconic meat dress that she wore at the 2010 VMA's and she also sang her then upcoming hit, Born This Way which released in February 2011). My other inspirations that are on this album's tracklisting other than Gaga are: Cascada, David Guetta, Kelly Rowland, Cakvin Harris, La Roux, Tinchy Stryder, Nicole Sherzinger (including The Pussycat Dolls), Chipmunk, Pixie Lott, P!NK, The Veronicas, Katy Perry, Girls Aloud, Agnes, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Alesha Dixon, The Saturdays, Take That, Britney Spears, Jordin Sparks, Akon, Beyoncé, Daniel Merriweather, Keri Hilson, Ne-Yo, Ciara, Justin Timberlake, The Black Eyed Peas, Soulja Boy Tell'Em, Colby O'Donis, Flo Rida, Wynter Gordon, Elton John, Pitbull, Dizzee Rascal, Armand Van Helden, 30H!3, Noisettes, Little Boots, James Morrison, Paolo Nutini and Chicane ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🩷💗
It's a very close call because all three Now! albums released in 2009 were good, but if I had to pick one out of 72,73 and 74 i'd say this one was the weakest.
The fact I love both Katy and Queen Bee, it's a toughie to decide the better musician for me but I probably prefer Katy slightly more though in a way, I actually prefer Beyoncé and I would say she's equally as good as Mariah Carey who I'm a big fan of too 😍 two things I especially love about Mariah are: 1. She writes all of her own songs and 2. She only likes nice people which makes her a down to earth person 😇
Now 73 marks the first appearances of La Roux, Chipmunk, Emeli Sande, Pixie Lott, The Veronicas, Agnes, Wynter Gordon, Pitbull, 3OH!3, Florence & The Machine, Little Boots and Deadmau5, only appearance of Empire of the Sun, final appearances of Freemasons, Jordin Sparks, Daniel Merriweather, Keri Hilson, Ciara, Soulja Boy, Colby O'Donis, Kardinal Offishall, Ironik, Armand Van Helden, The Prodigy, Kasabian, Noisettes and Chicane and guest appearances of AR Rahman, Sammie and Kaskade
I take it we agree on this one and 74 being the best Nows from the years ending in 9 with 102 being excellent, 44 and 104 being great, 14 is also really good and I like 43 too. I can also handle your opinion on 102 and 103 as you find 102 on the good side if average and 103 the poor side of average 😀
@@robertatkinson1347 the fact that all 3 Now of 2009 beat every Now albums from 1989, 1999 and 2019 shows how superb 2009 really is compared to 1989, 1999 and 2019 though 1999 is still pretty damn good, despite being weaker than 2019 for Now albums though it still beats 1998, 2000-2002 as well, despite 2002 also having better Nows too 👌
@@sddk2k8themusicalfanatic66 I have to disagree, 1999 is definitely better than 2019 in terms of NOWS. 2019 isn't much better than 2017 and 2018 with 1999 being great, 42 is the worst one of the year for sure but I wouldn't say it's awful, unlike 104.
It's a shame that LoveGame didn't achieve succes like Just Dance and Poker Face as it only charted at #19 though it had potential to be on this album, especially had it charted much higher as it's a good song 💗
@sddk2k8thenowthatswhatical66 yeah it's not too bad and is one of three notable Lady Gaga songs that never appeared on a numbered NOW, the other two being 'Telephone' and 'Judas'.
Also the fact that Gaga has a down to earth personallity which is one of the reasons I love her, the other reasons are: 1. She writes her own songs 2. She plays a lot of instruments 3. She has a diverse range of genres
There's no way in my opinion 103 is better than 43, 33 and 63 as it's definitely the worst out of all of them, my order would go something like Superb: 83, 3 Excellent: 43, 113 Great: 53, 73, 13, 33 Good: 93, 63, 23 Poor: 103

I'm now starting to prefer 33, 43 and 63 over 103 which means that I now agree with you about 103 being the worst one ending in 3. I'm starting to find 63 slightly better than 33 and 43 too. And the fact that 97, 100 and 103 are the worst summer Nows of the 2010s sum up the fact that 2010-2016 are much better than 2017-2019 with 76, 79, 82, 85, 88, 91 and 94 being much better than 97, 100 and 103, even though 97 and 103 aren't bad with 103 being a little bit better whereas 100 is poor and you also dislike 103 too.
