At least he had to catch a ferry to get here on the Isle of Wight and not just drive up the road😂😂 but as the island is England you're right it is international 👍🏴✌️
Hi guys, first you have to remember the - NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL MUSIC - started in the UK in 83 but on vinal, plus cassette. The first C.D in the UK was NOW 4 but it had a limited number of tracks, if you have one or find one it is worth more than a lot in the second hand CD's buyers market. If i remember correct also, it was NOW 9 when C.D's really started to take over or CD's started having the same amount of tracks to vinal, do remember that NOW in the US and UK are a little different from each other.
Seems not much changed in the 80's from the previous decade. A posh 70's dinner out was 1. Prawn Cocktail 2. Steak 3. Black Forest Gateau. 4. Irish Coffee [with After Eight mint] Washed down with one of the three wines that we'd heard of- Blue Nun, Black Tower or Mateus Rose. Oh, Corrida too - but even we Philistines drew the line somewhere !
I got the first one (and following ones) too. I was 15 in 1983 and I'm in Scotland. I can remember cassette tapes still in the late 80s. My favourite was from the 70s and it was by Darts. The Amazing Darts I think it was called. I loved them but there's probably not many who remember them lol
Yes Nick, Now That's What I Call Music did indeed begin in the early 80's. Here in the UK they're now over the vol. 100 mark. So they released at least 2 vols a year.
According to this wiki page, it started in '83 in the UK but it wasn't until '98 that it came out in the US. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Now_That%27s_What_I_Call_Music!_discography
Now That's What I Call Music started in November 1983. My first ever vinyl of Now 5 was in 1985, I still have a load of vinyl records stashed away somewhere, but nothing to play them on. I also collected picture discs in the 90's that I need to dig out, probably worth a bit now as vinyl records are expensive now
I brought now that's what i call music #6 for my girlfriend at Christmas in 85 so they were definitely out before then, probably 83. Always love to see Nick laughing and Jodie laughing but cringing at the same time, thanks for the reaction
I also had 'Now thats what I call music 2' - although I was about 7 or 8 years old, so that would have been around 1984 so it was definitely was in the 80s. At that time i only had two tapes and this was one of them, lol.
Blue Nun was a highly advertised cheap German white wine, a Riesling maybe. But yeah, so many memorable references, brands that were considered sophisticated at the time, just because they were from somewhere else in Europe. A bedsitter, or a bedsit, is a flat with one big room which has to serve as both bedroom and sitting room, usually with a separate kitchen and bathroom, but he's describing one which doesn't have a separate kitchen. The minimum amount of space for a single person or a couple to live on their own.
Hi Nick & Jodi, it was 1970 when I was finally able to buy my own music choices. Up until then, I was listening to my parents L.P.`s & `45`s (singles). They also bought several E.P.`s which contained the top six songs in the charts, 3 on either side. We played them on the radiogram in the living room. The first few `45`s I bought myself were from a 2nd hand record shop in 1970, the first was (All Kinds Of Everything) by Irish singer, Dana. The first full price `45 I bought was (See My Baby Jive) by Wizzard in 1973. The second (as teacher`s, you won`t like the title), was (One & One Is One) by Medicine Head. :)
My aunt give me some money for my birthday. I bought a Lynsey De Paul album tape with it . " Taste Me, 1974.". Tapes were fun. Still you can buy them. But a bit expensive. Good show 😊👍
My goto tape was Invisible Touch by Genesis, in the car, with dad, sunny day, sky reflecting off the bonnet, green trees flying by, just going places. Guessing when the mirages on the road would disappear.
I've still got a few tapes to very day. I've also still got a load of vhs tapes ,even though i don't have vcr player anymore. remember in the 80,s all the different music shows, back when mtv just played music videos 24 7 and chart shows. In the UK our main music show was top of the pops. Congratulations you'll soon be at 100k.🤞
I bought the LP and the cassette of That's What I Call Music 1 in 1983. He's right it worked a treat. He's also right about the furry friend and the rest.😂🎉 Cardiff, Cornwall and Isle of Wight was exotic international back then.
Micky is a Blooming Star that has dragged me out of plenty bad moods. What has also helped is Jodi trying to pretend to be shocked and contain her laughter and her beautiful smile during the rude bits.x great videos. Cheer's 🇬🇧
She's not pretending to be shocked, she's just a bit embarrassed at the visuals in her head when certain things are said out loud, like the bush overflow. She finds it as hilarious as the rest of us but doesn't want to show it
I remember sitting on the walkashore to HMS Ulster listning to Pink Floyd's Meddle on my Philips EL 3302A Portable Compact Cassette Tape Recorder. Yeah; those were the days 🥴😵💫🙂
When I was an international player as an 18yr old in the 80's I dressed like Rick Astley 'Never gonna give you up' (check out the vid) and did manage to get with some international very young ladies (16-18). Yes, quite a specific time of the 80's. I had the confidence but I certainly didn't have the cool. I think I'd be watching through my fingers if I could go back and see myself. Memories of being on a dance floor doing the 'slowly round in circles rubbing your bodies together' dance to Madonna 'Crazy for you'. Always seemed to get lucky with that one. Still lived at home back then, so no bed-sit and not much money.
I had NOW 2 on LP and remember it well. Was definitely 1980's - but my favourite was NOW 3 and I still have the LP for that 40 years later. Love it when Jodie cringes so much!
"Now That's What I Call Music x" was launched in the UK on 29 November 1983. Just over 40 years old and yes it was on Cassette (I think I may still have a couple)
Ha! As soon as the V word was mentioned I thought is Jodi going to make it through the rest? Then ironically covering her face with hands in the shape of.....😹🤣Love your reactions guys✌️♥️😹
Blue Nun for seduction Black Tower for house and dinner parties😁 and yes NTWICM was the 80’s I remember the pig in shades on the cover of a double tape cassette case.
Now that's what I call music started in the UK - released in the United Kingdom and Ireland by Sony Music and Universal Music in 1983, south Africa 1995 and finally the USA in 1998. Remember the USA wasn't always top dog, and you won't alway be top dog. Other countries do exist, and eventually you won't be the source of entertainment.
The USA and the UK will always alternate for No.1 in music, the USA will always be No.1 in movies and the UK No.1 in comedy. Who do you suggest can compete on a global scale
@@4Kandlez that's working within a limited linguistic Arena. There are good none English films and music, we just fail to appreciate it lacking the understanding of the language, so it relies heavily on rhythm and structure for music, or our attention span with subtitles. There are also cultural taste variations. Numerically I suspect India and China have huge marketplace for entertainment in their own right.
The first music i purchased with my pocket money was Micheal Jackson - Bad album on vinyl. My local community libary was selling it off as an ex-rental and my Grandfather purchased it for me with my pocketmoney he held for me.
I worked for HMV records in the early 80s. Now That's What I Call Music 2 was certainly out in the 80s (Release date: 1984). Not my cuppa tea, but I sold tons of them.
Not ashamed to say that in the early 80s if you had a little Bedsit you definitely had more fun.lol And yes the music system and a coffee percolator that was the look for a 18 yrs old in Manchester.
I remember prawn cocktails. Just as he described them. Even in curry houses!! I got Paco Rabane duty free in the army. As for the V, they were more social democrat in Germany, clipped!
My German Language teacher years ago who was actually German told us Liebfraumilch was for export only. You can’t buy it in Germany , we keep the best for home consumption. Which makes sense as I have never found a decent German wine outside of Germany .
Blue nun was a hugely popular German white wine that got caught up in a scandal , where an anti-freeze additive was mixed in during bottling or fermentation to make it sweeter, when it was discovered,it’s popularity went into sharp decline.
The 1985 Austrian diethylene glycol wine scandal (German: Glykolwein-Skandal) was an incident in which several Austrian wineries illegally adulterated their wines using the toxic substance diethylene glycol (a minor ingredient in some brands of antifreeze) to make the wines appear sweeter and more full-bodied in the style of late harvest wines.[1] Many of these Austrian wines were exported to West Germany, some of them in bulk to be bottled at large-scale West German bottling facilities. At these facilities, some Austrian wines were illegally blended into German wines by the importers, resulting in diethylene glycol ending up in some bulk-bottled West German wines.[2] Wikipedia.
Micky's right you know. Vaginas have changed a lot. I first come across them in the flesh in the early 1970s. Then, they were elusive, shy creatures, only coming out when you had gained their trust. And that took a long time and hard work (or a lot of money, sometimes both). And it's true, they were hairy monsters, tasting slightly of fish. Now they are everywhere, having lost their fear and both the hair and fishy taste has gone. How did that happen? Rapid evolution? I remember at the time wondering what the flaps on them were for. Fifty years later I'm still wondering.
The bill board charts were the thing here in the UK, early 80 on the radio, came out on a thursday if i remember right, we worked in the factories then you brits from the era, will know what im talking about, everyone stopped for the story, the sad story, it was called our tune i believe, then little later you got the chart results, big converstions who we thought would be number one, what was funny, you got the walkmans, personal radio with head phones, we used to the ear piece in our ear protectors, but you didnt get signal in all the factory, you would see guys walk round listen through head phones, pause, take 2 steps back to get the signal, , it was funny to think of now, but we all listened to our tune, and the story, around 10am or so, whatching so many grown men dance around to get a signal, to listen lol,
'83...#1 TWICM I had three kids by then! She was wooed by Led Zep or Bowie, REAL Music, and of course me, because we were all God's back then! So, no need for the Silk Kimono!
During the 80s, we had socialism in our country, so we would listen only to our local artists, OR, we'd get a copy of a copy of a copy of some "western" artist. I remember being blown away by a terrible copy of Michael Jackson's cassette. Say say say was on it. It was NOTHING like what we had. Nothing came even close! And our artists were quite well known for ripping off foreign artists. Taking their music, slapping on some lyrics in our language on it and bosh! Money was made.
You would be correct. I was responding to the question he asked when did the 'now that's what I call music' come out - Jodie etc said it was the 90's I think. I was saying they came out in 83, so yeah volume 2 would be 84 I presume.👍🏻 Thanks
Now that's what I call music was invented by a british record company - probably virgin. I guess they eventually figured out to do the same in the USA.
As I pointed out before Micky can be a little crude but people find him funny because he describes real situations people can relate to. In the 80's body hair on women was normal. Periods and sanitary products were taboo, knowing people who could get hold of things cheaply was common. When I left school I got a job with an apprenticeship in mechanical engineering. I had to spend 3 months at a training centre for engineers. I turned up on day 1 with a full set of micrometers and various other measuring instruments. The chief instructor looked at them said to me "where did you get these? I said "from my uncle" is he wealthy? No not really. Where does he work? "He's stores manager at Moore & Wright (where they make measuring instruments). 😅
1982 Now That's What I Call Music. The year we bought a house and agreed (what turned out to be ) our 1983 move from Inner S E London to Outer S E London of just 11 miles and, then, a million miles, culturally. Passed my driving test in London in 1981 and bosch down the motor/freeway to West Sussex with "Abba Greatest Hits Vol 1" on Cassette..
Why was there no discussion about the 80s big hairy Bush!?? 😂😂😂 we all know you were avoiding it , but we all wanted to hear what you were thinking about 😂
Before I bought my first ever cassette, I used to record songs off the radio which of course you to have the announcer saying stuff over the intros and endings of every song. To this day I can't listen to the opening door and footsteps of Michael Jackson's Thriller without hearing "Sounds like George Balani walking into the studio" (George was a well known announcer during the 80's here in New Zealand)
I still have one of those dressing gowns with the Dragon on the back in the cupboard somewhere Also, in the 80s muscle shirts with the rage I found one in the wardrobe and tried it on, looked in the mirror, and then I realised I looked much better with clothes on It’s terrible when you realise that☹️☹️
Now That's What I Call Music 2.. 1984
With classics from Queen, Culture Club and more 💙
I have Now 1 on Record ...its like an Best of the 80s compilation .
Before my time mate.......first one I got was 4 😂😂
Yet none from Luther Vandross.
Now That's What I Call Music 1 was out the year before 1983
I prefer the 1715 edition
Now That's What I Call Music launched in the UK 28th November 1983. As Cardiff is in Wales, he really was an international lover 🤣
At least he had to catch a ferry to get here on the Isle of Wight and not just drive up the road😂😂 but as the island is England you're right it is international 👍🏴✌️
That’s how we still do it where I live. Class never changes.
Love your guys reactions, Jodie’s face when it gets a little saucy is always priceless 🙂👍
Best bit of Boring Reviews is Jodie’s reactions at times…
Yeh, it’s like, rewind I didn’t hear that!😂
i could not agree more❤❤

'Blue Nun' is a German wine brand - it's titular product being a Leibfraumilch (literally 'maidens milk'), a sweet white wine.
Seems not much changed in the 80's from the previous decade. A posh 70's dinner out was
1. Prawn Cocktail
2. Steak
3. Black Forest Gateau.
4. Irish Coffee [with After Eight mint]

Pretty much ditto to that. But only got a couple of picture discs. I remember one is a 12” Madonna single but can’t remember which song.

Brilliant built that up beautifully 😂

Micky has this weird gift of totally creeping you out while you still find him somewhat endearing and relatable.
Cassettes were around in the late seventies but it took several years for the quality of sound to begin to approach records .
"Now That's What I Call Music x" was launched in the UK on 29 November 1983. Just over 40 years old and yes it was on Cassette (I think I may still have a couple)
I had the first ever Now album on vinyl in 1983. I now feel very old
All the English 80’s references going straight over their heads is hilarious
I was 20 years old in 1982. I was cringing along with Jodie when he was talking about "lady parts". Eww! Lol.😂😂🇬🇧
I have a HITS 2 from the early 80s, and a NOW 23 both on double Cassette.
Ha! As soon as the V word was mentioned I thought is Jodi going to make it through the rest? Then ironically covering her face with hands in the shape of.....😹🤣Love your reactions guys✌️♥️😹
The dragon robe/dressing gown.
Nick: "This could have been written for a sit-com".
Me: Immediately thinks of Del Boy from Only Fools and Horses.
Great reaction it was fun, now that's what I call music 2 came out in July 1992 according to Google lol
Blue Nun for seduction Black Tower for house and dinner parties😁 and yes NTWICM was the 80’s I remember the pig in shades on the cover of a double tape cassette case.
Classic from Micky😂😂well done both❤️❤️
I still have Now that's what I call music 3- Duran Duran, Nick Kershaw, Queen, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Grandmaster and Mellie Mel- Yep 80s
Now that's what I call music started in the UK - released in the United Kingdom and Ireland by Sony Music and Universal Music in 1983, south Africa 1995 and finally the USA in 1998.

NTWICM 2 was released in the Spring of 1984.
Definitely in the UK that what I call music was 82 or 83 on vinyl or tape, there was another complication that competed I always bought both.
Yeah cassettes in the 80s, still got mine.
I still to this day have no idea what our obsession with prawn cocktails was in the 80's. It was a bizarre time.
I worked for HMV records in the early 80s. Now That's What I Call Music 2 was certainly out in the 80s (Release date: 1984). Not my cuppa tea, but I sold tons of them.
The first NOW tapes were a yearly round up of the biggest hits and 💯 % started in the 80’s
You guys are great 😅
1983 'now that's what I call music' - I remember it well, I just started secondary school 👍🏻
In the US the first they had was in 1998
I'd just started boarding school aged 11. Had it on vinyl.
Yes I bought them on vinyl in the mid 80’s. I think it was number 6 my first one.
I still own the first on vinyl and 1 to twenty on tape.
UK IT WAS 1984 ish@@Itwasalwaysme_Noone
You know his kimono with the dragon? 😉 say no more. "Now That's What I Call Music" (original UK album) started in 1983
Not ashamed to say that in the early 80s if you had a little Bedsit you definitely had more fun.lol
And yes the music system and a coffee percolator that was the look for a 18 yrs old in Manchester.
1986 the housemartins with happy hour was on the now compilation, they definitely started out around 83
I still have now that’s what I call music the first one on tape. And now 4 on vhs . Jesus I’m old
I remember prawn cocktails. Just as he described them. Even in curry houses!! I got Paco Rabane duty free in the army. As for the V, they were more social democrat in Germany, clipped!
The first edition was released 28 November 1983 or at least in the U.K. (LOL! I was there) ,or not until 1998 for the U.S.A. LOL! I was there .
Jodie's reaction 😂😂
All the different cities in England? Cardiff isn't in England. He has gone truly international with Cardiff.... It's in Wales. 😁
My German Language teacher years ago who was actually German told us Liebfraumilch was for export only. You can’t buy it in Germany , we keep the best for home consumption. Which makes sense as I have never found a decent German wine outside of Germany .
'That's what I call music' launched in the U.K. and Ireland in 1983.
U.S.A. 1998.
Blue nun was a hugely popular German white wine that got caught up in a scandal , where an anti-freeze additive was mixed in during bottling or fermentation to make it sweeter, when it was discovered,it’s popularity went into sharp decline.
The 1985 Austrian diethylene glycol wine scandal (German: Glykolwein-Skandal) was an incident in which several Austrian wineries illegally adulterated their wines using the toxic substance diethylene glycol (a minor ingredient in some brands of antifreeze) to make the wines appear sweeter and more full-bodied in the style of late harvest wines.[1] Many of these Austrian wines were exported to West Germany, some of them in bulk to be bottled at large-scale West German bottling facilities. At these facilities, some Austrian wines were illegally blended into German wines by the importers, resulting in diethylene glycol ending up in some bulk-bottled West German wines.[2]

I remember at the time wondering what the flaps on them were for. Fifty years later I'm still wondering.
First tape was akexandra oneal and cherrelle Saturday love
First vinyl ll cool j .. mama says knock you out
It might be considered passé these days, but I drove to Roxette's "Joyride" cassette album for months...
Had the first, double album on vinyl! Fuck knows where it is now. Had a pig on the front wearing shades if your interested
Yeah I read here in the UK 1983 was the first Now that's what I call music, apparently the first one in the US was 1998.
I remember now music being on cassette in the 80s
lol, they call it a growler for a good reason
The bill board charts were the thing here in the UK, early 80 on the radio, came out on a thursday if i remember right, we worked in the factories then
you brits from the era, will know what im talking about, everyone stopped for the story, the sad story, it was called our tune i believe, then little later you got the chart results, big converstions who we thought would be number one,
what was funny, you got the walkmans, personal radio with head phones, we used to the ear piece in our ear protectors, but you didnt get signal in all the factory, you would see guys walk round listen through head phones, pause, take 2 steps back to get the signal, , it was funny to think of now, but we all listened to our tune, and the story, around 10am or so, whatching so many grown men dance around to get a signal, to listen lol,
'83...#1 TWICM
I had three kids by then!
She was wooed by Led Zep or Bowie, REAL Music, and of course me, because we were all God's back then! So, no need for the Silk Kimono!
Unfortuately I even remember 8 Track!!!
During the 80s, we had socialism in our country, so we would listen only to our local artists, OR, we'd get a copy of a copy of a copy of some "western" artist.

Actually the "Now thats what i call music" came out in 1983 in the UK so volume 2 would have been a year later i think
You would be correct. I was responding to the question he asked when did the 'now that's what I call music' come out - Jodie etc said it was the 90's I think. I was saying they came out in 83, so yeah volume 2 would be 84 I presume.👍🏻
Thanks
Playlists should be renamed Mixtapes.
I remember the first CD single I bought, let's just say I thought I was pretty fly for a white guy 😁
The American compilation came out in 1999 Uk version 1983
Now that's what I call music was invented by a british record company - probably virgin. I guess they eventually figured out to do the same in the USA.

When I left school I got a job with an apprenticeship in mechanical engineering. I had to spend 3 months at a training centre for engineers. I turned up on day 1 with a full set of micrometers and various other measuring instruments. The chief instructor looked at them said to me "where did you get these? I said "from my uncle" is he wealthy? No not really. Where does he work? "He's stores manager at Moore & Wright (where they make measuring instruments). 😅
Hi Still got my Now 1 to 6 on cassette and loads more. Why i don't know.
Actually, considering the dragon kimono robe, the cobra kai hat was kind of relevant.
Love jodies face when she was talking about het tape & easy bake oven, its pure joy in her memories. ❤
1983 in Australia it was hits hot vol 1&2
Absolutely fantastic guys, the 80s growler lol 70s was worse lol
Definitely early 80-s
1982 Now That's What I Call Music. The year we bought a house and agreed (what turned out to be ) our 1983 move from Inner S E London to Outer S E London of just 11 miles and, then, a million miles, culturally.
Passed my driving test in London in 1981 and bosch down the motor/freeway to West Sussex with "Abba Greatest Hits Vol 1" on Cassette..
90's in the US but UK well ahead of the game first with NTWICM in 1983.
Blue nun? It was that or black tower for your wine choices...
I've seen this episode, it's Ralph Furley.
I love you Jodi 😂😂😂❤❤❤
Wonder if they still do 'Blue Nun '?
Why was there no discussion about the 80s big hairy Bush!?? 😂😂😂 we all know you were avoiding it , but we all wanted to hear what you were thinking about 😂
R Kelly that didn’t end well, did it !
Can relate to about 90% of that. But... I was never that cheap to go for a bottle of 'Blue Nun'.
Poor jodie... stop making her squirm
Cardiff is not a city in England! Tut tut tut!
He said he was 'international' 😂
It’s a joke 🫠
As a man in my early 30s I've never realised until now how badly I need a black silk kimono with a dragon on the back.
Before I bought my first ever cassette, I used to record songs off the radio which of course you to have the announcer saying stuff over the intros and endings of every song. To this day I can't listen to the opening door and footsteps of Michael Jackson's Thriller without hearing "Sounds like George Balani walking into the studio" (George was a well known announcer during the 80's here in New Zealand)
I still have one of those dressing gowns with the Dragon on the back in the cupboard somewhere
Also, in the 80s muscle shirts with the rage I found one in the wardrobe and tried it on, looked in the mirror, and then I realised I looked much better with clothes on It’s terrible when you realise that☹️☹️
no they started in the 80’s
'83
My first cassette, well my sister and mine, was Michael Jackson - Black & White, we went halves in it and basically played it once a day at least.
I think Late 80s now music started it run. Before it was top of the pops
