Now or Never is the second extended play by English musical duo Bananarama.[1] It was released independently on 21 September 2012 to coincide with the 30th anniversary of the group and the launch of their Hard Rock Cafe "Pinktober" US tour.[2]

The EP features "Now or Never" and "La La Love", two new recordings written in collaboration with British producer Ian Masterson. An extended version of the title track and a cover of Maroon 5's song "Moves Like Jagger" were also included in the package.[3]

A remixed version of their 1992 song "Movin' On" was offered as a gift to fans who bought the EP and sent their proofs of purchase to the official website before 20 October 2012.[4]
