Albums I find almost impossible that you left off:
Definitely Maybe, Oasis
Purple, Stone Temple Pilots
Urban Hymns, The Verve
Clumsy, Our Lady Peace
Everything I Long For, Hayden
(I could even make a pretty convincing case for Be Here Now--even though it's pretty uneven--the first 30 seconds alone of D'Yer Know What I Mean should
be enough to crack the top 30).
Great list (...but: Collective Soul? Fucking Collective Soul?? And: The New Radicals?? I defy you to name another song--aside from the single--from that album without consulting the liner notes. Not possible.)
Hayden, never actually heard it
Our Lady Peace, I've always disliked them
Urban Hymns could've been great if most of the songs had ended about a minute earlier
STP's records are aging worse than Nicollette Sheridan
Definitely Maybe and Be Here Now were both close calls, but overall I find them to be pretty unremarkable aside from the singles. And Collective Soul's first album was actually really good, and still holds up well today. Same with that New Radicals disc, though the band dropped off the face of the earth. And really, every 'best of a decade' list needs a few personal favourites that make other people retch. I'm sure the internet is full of people best-of-the-80's lists that feature an embarrassingly large dose of the Thompson Twins.
i love lists. especially when jewel appear outta nowhere!
