I've heard great things about the Amy Winehouse album but have yet to listen to it. Anyone have any opinions on it?

I wish people who consider themselves true music lovers, would get off of Cat Power's balls!! She's not that great

i think i've turned some kind of corner in life where i just can't give any kind of consideration to best-of lists like this anymore. i can't even get upset about how ludicrous they are. i'm just like, 'of COURSE it's dumb and lame. it's a best-of list!'

doesn't stop me from continuing to make my OWN dumbass lists, though.

At there someone called "Prince" there...

Thom Yorke's album deserved more than a mere #40. It's a gem

MikeMatronik said:

i completely agree!

IstenSzek said:

It's really a very rewarding experience...very intense. And not to long in duration. One of those albums u can listen at nite while reading a good book (Isabel Allende!) or just chilling in the couch

I went on a first (and last) date the other night. She had tickets to see Lily at a club in SF. Lily was boring and the "date" puked on my car. I'm not sure whether the vomit was induced by Lily's music, however.

I have to download that album...some people say she's the secong coming of christ in terms of pop music!

MikeMatronik said:

I heard the album a few months ago. The song about her brother smoking too much pot is kind of funny, but totally gimmicky. The rest of it was pretty forgetable IMO. You are right, though, people are way into her.

Stax said:

I never heard a song from her. I'm downloading now the album from soulseek just to see if she's good...

From the photos I have seen, she lacks the size of breasts that camptivate me in terms of female musicians!

Didn't Broken Social Scene come out in 2005? I'm almost positive that I bought it last year.

this is so weird but I would have listening to one album of that list: Thom's!

Damm...I'm so not cool!

Where's Gnarls Barkley or Nelly Mckay?
