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.
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
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.
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
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.
