The Chorus.Fm Users Definitive Albums List • Page 3

How about: put them on if they’re in your top 50 albums ever

 

as anyone should

 

Like, Sam Cooke's One Night Stand brings such a crazy live energy to some of those songs that they feel radically different than their studio versions, and then when you consider what he says in between songs/during the songs and the medley it's like its own entire thing.

 

put it on your list then

 

Now that’s what I call music 1-50. Done.

 

Top 50 Albums Image • forum.chorus.fm

Here's the top 50 albums image thing from 4 years ago, if you did that. Mine's gonna change

 

Topsters 2: Make images and charts of your top favorite albums.

 

yeah mine would be so wildly different than mine then haha

 

lol fuck, I'm already at 49 albums

 

I’m narrowing down a list of 170 lol

 

Fuck it I'm in, my grad school responsibilities can wait

 

i had about 65 on my shortlist that I narrowed down to 20 from the version I did of this with friends. just gonna add 30 back.

 

Oh man this is going to be tough/take a while lol

 

1. Taylor Swift - Red

let's ride @Craig Manning and @Anna Acosta

 

Stickied this for y'all.

 

I’m debating whether I should be 100% honest with my list or not. trying to set parameters for myself lol

 

list:

1) The 1975 — I like it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
1,000,000) The Beatles — “Let It Be ... Naked” or whatever the fuck

 

please be 4 real

 

ugh, it has to be ranked??? okay, give me a few more years. I do have an accurate-ish list though.


the number one album of all time is actually a double a-side of "1 Thing" by Amerie and "212" by Azealia Banks. i ran the numbers

 

Can we do top 10 ranked and the rest unranked?

Also, I recommend when doing the points system that the #1 album gets 100 points and the #50 gets 51 points. Your favorite album shouldn’t be 50x the value of your 50th. 2x is way fairer.

 

Okay.... I picked my top 100 and just narrowed it down to 50 based off how much I listened to them over the years and how much of an impact they had on me. Did it much quicker than I thought I would but had a lot of time at work and after. Favorite song from each album is in parenthesis.
