Talkie Walkie was wicked cool!!!
and Medulla was somewhat interesting and nice. Oh, and Prince  Blasphemy!
(btw, isn't Oor about the only magazine in the world that made a bigger relevance drop than Rolling Stone?) "It's better 2 B hated 4 what U R than 2 B loved 4 what U R not."

You read HUMO down there in Belgium? You know, while drinking your Heineken? | |

A platinum album is hardly a bomb, regardless of how that million was sold. | |

I think you could add to this list:
Janet Jackson - Damita Jo that would be number 10..... | |

Hit a sour spot there, didn't i? What i don't understand is why you dutchies keep bringing it up, i would crawl in a corner and be very ashamed instead  .
Oh, and yes we read Humo here, but it's not really my cup'o tea. "It's better 2 B hated 4 what U R than 2 B loved 4 what U R not."

Reason I asked was that I used to read it while living in Belgium, they would come with lists like that..... | |

"Musicology", Prince's best selling album in maybe 12 or so years, a bomb? Really? It's not my favorite album of his, but credit where credit is due. | |

It must not be internationaly becasu "PATEINCE" was George Michael most succesfull album snce the 80's adn Medulla sold beter then Vespertine I believe? | |

Gwen's album is a bit of a dissappointment sales wise You CANNOT use the name of God, or religion, to justify acts of violence, to hurt, to hate, to discriminate- Madonna

yes, but then, that's only 1 of 3, and one of those was out in '90. so.... "Awards are like hemorrhoids. Sooner or later, every asshole gets one." | |

Robi Rosa used to be the lead singer of Menudo back in the 1980s. Then he formed his own band Maggie's Dream in the early 90s. After they broke up, he wrote hits for Ricky Martin. | |

But, I'm guessing this list is probably only supposed to apply to the Netherlands...I dunno how DJ sold there, maybe better than Musicology?"I would say that Prince's top thirty percent is great. Of that thirty percent, I'll bet the public has heard twenty percent of it." - Susan Rogers, "Hunting for Prince's Vault", BBC, 2015 |

That list is LAME. Any 'bomb' list from 2004 that doesn't have Damita Jo near the top of the list will be completely discounted by me  | |

 maybe sales-figures of Damita Jo are non-existent in the Netherlands, and therefore the cd was totally disgarded.....? | |

Damita Jo sold 5 million copies worldwide. All For You sold 8 million worldwide. So no, not exactly a bomb. | |
