The first few days of sales have predicted that the 100th edition of the NOW That’s What I Call Music compilation could be the fastest selling album in 2018.

The iconic NOW That's What I Call Music compilations have reached the biggest milestone yet as it rolls into triple figures.

Having reached the 100th volume of the compilation, it's been predicted by the Official Charts that it could be set to be the most sold album in 2018 having already sold over 105,000 copies in the first three days.

July 20 saw the release of the NOW 100 compilation, which features a mixture of today's hits on the first CD, before delving into some of the favourite tracks that have appeared on the NOW collections over the past 35 years.

Spencer Kelly uploaded a picture to Twitter that showed the 100th volume of the CD collection acting as the final piece to his collection that he started 35 years ago.

It also turns out that the artist who appears most frequently across all 100 versions of the compilations is Robbie Williams, having apparently appeared on 30 volumes of the compilation.

Some of the classic tracks to appear on the second CD include UB40’s "Red Red Wine", The Spice Girls’ "Wannabe", Phil Collins' "Against All Odds", and more.

NOW That’s What I Call Music 100 is out now.
