You can understand why I got so frustrated, yeah? They talked a lot about how "The Libertines" is amazing because it traces the eventual meltdown of the band, but that is exactly why I find it harder to listen too, it's too sad. VSB said he thought it must be based on commercial success, but apparently it was based on "the public's vote). And I guess that's why we should be happy, no ecstatic that enough people have the sense to vote OK computer into #1. You're right, notably no Foo Fighters included.
As I say, it's mostly "Grace" and "Pet Sounds" that they fucked up, but I also really think "Parallel Lines" by Blondie is also one of THE most perfect albums ever.

You should absolutely get "Parallel Lines". It is one of my very favourites and pretty much flawless. lol, I'm not so keen on G'n'R either! I was thinking about carefully compiling my top 100 albums, it'll be hard though.
Yeah I think the white album came in in the early teens...here's the full list btw

I'm glad you think U2 are overrated too!
I love In Utero.
Parklife and Different Class should both be a lot higher!
So glad you love West Side Story too. I adore it.
My favourite Beatles album is Revolver so I was happy with it.
Joni should be higher too.

Yeah top 10 would be waay too difficult.
