Here's a chart from Golden Discs that isn't in line with your generalisation
That's an awesome top-10!!
This is the type of music that I would like to listen to on a night out!!0 -

I've seen many greatest album lists over the years. They're just a bit of fun and I enjoyed this one as much as the others, but this one was comfortably the worst selection I've ever seen
60-70% of the list have been on top 100 album lists for the last 20 years and some have been there for the last 30 years and more so I’m not sure what lists your referring to- maybe specialist lists like R&B or Rap - these are the general preferences as voted for by a random sample of 50 people but they still managed to match recognised lists like Rolling Stone etc
Queens of the stoneage- Songs for the Deaf
The Pixes Surfer Rosa
Bruce Springsteen- Nebraska
Bruce Springsteen- Born to Run

As i said, there is nothing wrong with anyone's selections. Music is a powerful and subjective thing.
But the sample size was very small and lets' be honest, I wouldn't listen to Bruce bleedin Springers with your earphones ... just saying:o
I don't expect people from the country to appreciate Easy E or Snoop Dog either.:D
Do you mean culchies don't like rap or country music fans don't like rap
as a bit of both I like Snoop Dogg 0 -

No Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, AC/DC.
Only the first Led Zep album. Only one Pink Floyd album. The wrong Metallica album.
The Stone Roses with the 4th greatest album of all time Think about that for a second! 0 -

Jayzuz you’re taking this all so seriously - it’s 50 random people’s view of what’s the best album to them - it’s not a “let’s replicate all the other album lists that are out there” thread- even then we hit of lot of the usual suspects and provided folk with some suggestions they may not have considered- what more do you want?0 -
You also like Lady Gaga ffs? You can forgive me for generalising.
At least be consistent, be - atch.:P
Real fans refer to him as the " Snoop" or the "Dogfather".
Or now the Just Eat dude
I think he did a duet with Willie Nelson or did just have a few smokes together
Gaga is great as is Pink too0 -

This is what it's all about: the raw rancour.
To be honest I somewhat surprised by the top fifty - I expected it to be a lot worse. No major surprises, but as a poll of fifty randomers on boards.ie what more were you expecting?
Though I agree with you about the stone roses - the most wildly overrated band in history.
What's your top ten anyway.0 -

Pink I can handle, but not Gaga, she is too contrived for my liking.
Is she a fashion icon, a one hit wonder or a sincere musical talent?
I am confused?0 -
