Mistakes in the booklet

Four mistakes were made in the printed booklet accompanying the album:

1. It wrongly refers to Alesha Dixon's song as "Let's Get It Started" rather than the correct title "Let's Get Excited".
2. Shontelle's song "Stuck With Each Other" is listed incorrectly as "Stuck With You".
3. The song description for Keri Hilson's "Knock You Down" states that it is her first single as a solo artist, when in fact "Energy" was her first solo single.
4. It also states La Roux's "In For The Kill" as their debut single, when actually their debut single was "Quicksand".

Changes from previous editions

There are not any ringtones available for purchase on Now 73, making it the first in the series to have stopped showing ringtones since they started on Now 54.
