AllMusic[4]

Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic says: "Aside from having lesser-known hits such as 'First Date' and 'A New Day Has Come,' NOW 10 is recommended because it captures the particular sound and spirit of the time it covers." He adds, "The album captures that feeling of the music industry's slump in terms of sales and quality, and unlike radio in 2002, there are enough hits and good songs during this hour to make it worth listening to, overall."[4]

Kimberly Reyes of Entertainment Weekly states that the album has a strange but diverse variety of songs,[5] and Billboard even acknowledges that the album "goes a bit heavier on up-and-coming artists then past "NOW" sets."[6]
