Crap, I totally forgot about Insignificance on mine. I just came across this journal looking at other answers...had to go like 20 down to see something decent!

Glad you dig (some of/all of) the list.

I followed that link and saw someone had put Viva La Vida by Coldplay on their list. Can we agree that that person is never allowed to make any kind of list ever again?

I haven't really paid attention to Coldplay in awhile. Jacelyn and I went and saw them last year and the light show during the concert was enough to put me off of them.

I want to sit down and take the time to do a Top 10 or 20 list of my favorite albums. It would be a thinker.

It's not that I dislike Coldplay. I think they're a perfectly good band. But their glossy new album that came out in the last year and is on iPod commercials? Really? That's in your top ten? Has this person only ever listened to ten albums in their life?

A lot of music 'lovers' are swayed by immediacy. They are caught in the moment. What an uneducated, lackluster moment it is.

hopefully EVERYONE spends their whole lives figuring this out, or else their list is not their all-time top ten!
