Glancing through the first Disc of WOW Hits 2016, we are immediately drawn to the worshipful nature of the album in general, as opposed to the pop/AC atmosphere of WOW Hits 2015 Disc 1. Has that been the case on this year’s compilation? Read on and find out. Maybe if they did stick with the original plan, and released WOW Hits 2 after WOW Hits 1 like it was originally planned, maybe, just maybe, songs would be more timely, and the album would be more about actual hits throughout the year than years before, artists would be recognised that were previously overlooked, and the same artists that have been on WOW albums for an eternity would make way for newer lesser known artists. And as I glance through this year’s WOW Hits, I stop to wonder. Why they did something like that, I’m not sure. WOW has been in circulation since 1995, rivalling its mainstream counterpart NOW That Is What I Call Music!, and while the WOW brand briefly decided to abandon its yearly compilation to move towards a three year album with WOW Hits 1, it quickly abandoned that project too, and released WOW Hits 2009 that year as well. I tend to be excited, or at least intrigued, whenever the song list for a WOW Hits album releases. Songs are either untimely, while other tracks, artists and even labels are shunned altogether.Įach year Capitol Christian Music Group, Word Label Group and Provident Label Group come together to deliver a supposed ‘must-have’ album, and one that’ll always have its critics and compliments, depending on who you’d ask. Yet with the claim that this album is the one-stop album for any Christian music fan, the album sadly falls short. I know I can sound ominous when I state that the WOW brand has been always a step or two behind what current radio hits are at the moment, but when I look at this year’s song list for WOW Hits 2016, supposedly the best 39 tracks of this year, I smile to myself and think- sure this album is a great album, and looking at songs alone and keeping the tag of ‘the best songs of the year’ out of my mind, I’d give this album a 4/5.

This isn't the end of his zany exploits either. Rudeism's Twitch followership has more than tripled (to 3,740) since he began his dancepad quest. "I feel that we've made a great community of people." "Ladies and gentlemen, it's been a fantastic month of dancing, of meeting fantastic, lovely people," he said. You can see them breaking out into emote dances of their own after Rudeism reaches his goal. His raid partners at first had no idea what controller he was using, but as his notoriety grew others caught on and he had no shortage of partners to join up. When he hit 100 he let out a "fuck yes, we did it!" as his chat feed scrolled with congratulations.Īfter a goofy victory dance, Rudeism sat down at a keyboard to talk to his fans, noting that it was the first time he'd touched the keyboard during play in about three weeks. "Excuse me, I didn't think I'd get teary." "I'm getting a little teary here," he said. Watch live video from Rudeism on Nearing exhaustion after hitting level 100, Rudeism found his voice giving out and his emotions welling up. You can watch it in the stream below, the climax is right around the 7:08:00 mark. In sum, he logged five days, 11 hours, 48 minutes and 38 seconds of dance time getting his troll monk up to max level.

Rudeism, the cheerful Kiwi who plays games wrong (his words), hit level 100 sometime around 6 a.m. Remember that guy who set out to reach World of Warcraft's level cap using a dancepad? Well, he made it.
