It was the lone single from the group's first compilation album, Greatest Hits (2005), as it was the only song on the compilation that was previously unreleased in the US. The song had been composed and recorded during the sessions that produced the group's self-titled 2003 album (it first appeared as a bonus track on the UK version of that album). "Not Now" would be the group's last single as a band before their four-year hiatus from 2005 to 2009.

"Not Now" was released to radio on October 18, 2005.[1] The song reached number 18 on Billboard's Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart and number 30 on the UK Singles Chart.
Background
The song concerns death and miscommunication. The song's guitar riffs were compared to the Descendents by journalist Joe Shooman, and are interspersed by verses containing a church organ.[2]
"Not Now" was first released for download on the iTunes Music Store on the day of the album's release.[3] It was included as a bonus track on the UK edition of Blink-182, although it is unclear why it was originally left off the track listing of the international edition.[2] The song was also included on Atticus: ...Dragging the Lake, Vol. 3 (2005), a compilation album released by DeLonge's clothing company, Atticus Clothing.[4] Both of these physical releases are a slightly shorter edit, where the bridge is shortened, making it roughly 15 seconds shorter.
When the song was selected to be a single for the band's post-breakup Greatest Hits album, it ran into trouble with the trio's management, which were split between DeLonge (who remained with original Blink manager Rick DeVoe) and Hoppus/Barker (who switched to Irving Azoff to handle their new project, +44).[5] The Azoff camp lobbied for the Hoppus-led "Another Girl, Another Planet" as the lead single, while DeVoe argued for "Not Now", which eventually won.[5]
Music video
The music video features clips of the band's past music videos, concerts, and tours. There are two released versions of this video, but the only significant difference between them is that different clips from all of their videos are used.
There is also a third, possibly unofficial, video; this is seen on Australia's Channel [V]. In this version, the video is black and white and is made up of some of the band's previous music videos as well as some footage of their live performance in the 2000 Big Day Out during the bridge of the song.

«Not Now» —en español: «Ahora no»— es el primer sencillo del álbum Greatest Hits de la banda Blink-182. En un artículo de la revista Rolling Stone de 2003, Tom DeLonge dijo estar molesto porque la canción no había quedado en su último álbum, la canción igual apareció en los bonus tracks de la versión de Reino Unido, en el sencillo «I Miss You» y en el álbum recopilatorio Atticus: ...Dragging the Lake, Vol. 3. Este fue el último sencillo antes de la ruptura de la banda en 2005, hasta su reunión en 2009.
