Wow good man if you do that, most people wouldn't bother!

by **Titan3510** » Sat Mar 17, 2012 11:56 pm

^ Thanks. I'm giving Erykah Badu's Baduizm a quick review listen before I move on to something I haven't really given a chance...

I'm thinking Jagged Little Pill or Californication...

Bring it on! 8-)

So far the results are shaping up very well (I think because we have a good list to choose from). There are male singers and rock bands doing well as are the expected divas.

So hard.
The top 20 or so were so tough to split but am very happy with my #1. It won't win but i spent many years enjoying it!
Thanks Star!

Looking forward to the countdown ~ hope my Top 10 do well 8-)

Send me a Private Message - with the title "90s"

Your list must meet the following requirements:

> Fully numbered list, with favourite at #1
> Minimum = 20
> Maximum = 50

Note: The points your #1 receives depends on how many albums you vote for. If your list carries 50 albums, then your #1 album will receive a full 50 points. If your list is 20 albums long, then your #1 will receive just 20 points. This rule applies to every album in your list - the points will be proportionate to the length of your list.

Deadline

i made a full list of 50 albums.

My Top 10 consists of only 5 individual artists. 3 artists have at least 2 albums in my top 10.

However, they're going to top this, of course.

I don't think Britney will top this, especially since ...Baby One More Time isn't her best album. Obviously, it will be Mariah Carey.

As long as Erotica doesn't make the Top 10, I'm good.

It won't, although I wouldn't mind if it did. It's my second favourite Madonna album.

Why?

by **biscuits** » Mon Mar 19, 2012 2:55 am

It's so interesting and the songs on there are quite experimental, rather than being safe and predictable. The sound of the album is really cool too - very dark.

Etc!!!EXTRA LOL!

I know you're a rock guy, and I am too to an extent, but what is so wrong with those albums? Butterfly and Velvet Rope especially are considered classics/defining moments for their respective artists and certainly belong here

Sent a list of 50 albums, 90s music is so good!

by **Tripolis** » Mon Mar 19, 2012 2:12 pm

Sent a list of 20 albums, around 40% of them are by the same artist... :lol:

I don't really know 90s music that well because I was just born then in that era, and only voted for albums that I know at least 1/2 of the songs in. I do know one or two songs from about 2/3 of these albums though, but I just didn't vote for them since it would not be an accurate gauge of the overall points score. My #1, #2 and #3 are amongst my favourite albums of all time. 8-)
