isn't amy winehouse technically a 2006 release? cuz if we're calling it a 2007 album, i'm gonna have to do some revising.  It's the same with Goldfrapp from last year. I think US release dates should count. Many of us didn't even know she existed until this year. It's exactly the same with Goldfrapp. I had that album in 2005, but knowing it was to be released in the states in March of '06, kept it off my best of '05 list. I had no such foresight with Joan As Police Woman or The Pipettes. 
Do you think Siouxsie's solo album this year will make your top 5? | |

Anxiety said: sextonseven said: I think my rules are perfectly logical. You can't have an album be a favorite for two different years. That's real anarchy right there.  i'm sorry. i'm still  over the image of you ruling with an iron fist. add in grace jones and snakepeel's finger and i think i'm in heaven.
what was this thread about?  Just play some Laibach in the background and the picture will be complete. Along with a trap door in Grace's trenchcoat for easy access. | |

superspaceboy said: sextonseven said: I count what gets released in my country this year: Amy Winehouse, Lily Allen, The Long Blondes--all are eligible to me even though their albums were released in the U.K. last year. Now if I lived in England it would be a different story. Those are my rules. :hifive: You tell em! ok, but what if someone not from the U.S. posts on here and they're like "who are these senile fools posting 2006 albums in 2007?" are they evildoers? should we send over the troops to deal with them?  | |

I'm not gonna fault someone posting from The Congo saying Nelly Furtado's 'Loose' is their #1 album of 2007 because that's when their country finally got around to releasing the thing. You obey the laws your government has made for you. | |

(goes and checks the creatures website) Not a lot of info there. Is it a Creatures album? Budgie HAS to be on it. But yeah it is time for a new one. Hmmm not sure if it'll make my top 5, but I probably will love it, as I do with all of their music. [Edited 6/8/07 13:17pm] Christian Zombie Vampires | |

I've been way out of the loop so far this year, so aside from VOLTA I can't name my five favorites. By year's end, I expect these to be among them, though:
Annie Lennox, VENUS Vanessa Daou, JOE SENT ME Meshell Ndegeocello, THE WORLD HAS MADE ME THE MAN OF MY DREAMS Suzanne Vega, BEAUTY AND CRIME Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου
μηδὲν ὅλως σὺ λυποῦ πρὸς ὀλίγον ἐστὶ τὸ ζῆν τὸ τέλος ὁ χρόνος ἀπαιτεῖ.” | |

I'm gonna have to think about 3 more, but so far....
1. nine inch nails - year zero 2. swami - equalize (out in august) |
| - E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
moderatorWell so far its a strange mix for me.....
1.Paul McCartney Memory Almost Full 2.john Mellencamp Freedoms Road 3. Amerie Because I love it 4. Hilary Duff Dignity After that probably the new Wilco or Crowded House, but with Ryan Adams,Prince and Mya on the way and the new a-Ha due in late 2007 (winners of my best cd in 2000,2002,and 2005-06) this list could change quick "We went where our music was appreciated, and that was everywhere but the USA, we knew we had fans, but there is only so much of the world you can play at once" Magne F | |

[Edited 6/8/07 13:17pm] I got this from http://www.untiedundone.com/ which is normally very credible: Siouxsie's solo album will be released in September '07. It will be preceded by a single entitled "Into a Swan" about a month earlier. More details to come....
I'm thinking it will sound like 'Anima Animus' Creatures. | |

I'm thinking it will sound like 'Anima Animus' Creatures. Yeah that's all it says on the site too...right below a pic of Budgie. I'm guessing it's be both of them, but maybe under her name as it is more noticable and marketable. Watch, it'll say Siouxsie's first solo album since the break up. But really it'll be Creatures.

Go ahead and call them out before I do Anxiety. For all we know, their probably writing letter and still putting 2006 on it. So this thread could be a freindly reminder org style. Org makes a difference. | |

1) Arcade Fire-Neon Bible 2) Brakes-Beatific Visionss 3) Elizabeth Cook-Balls 4) Modest Mouse-We Were Dead.. 5) Joan Armatrading-Into the Blues | |
