You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

I play
something like this.
in the 70's and 90's, the competition between albums would be much greater and the choice more difficult. | |

Rhythm Nation came out in 1990, so it just missed the 80s mark.
Why you always hiding when you pick a song or artist that might not be favorable
Regardless if it sucks, if thats what you like than thats what you like
I will come back with my Top 20 in a bit [Edited 2/26/13 0:11am] | |

I haven't played this album in a long time. I think I need to dust it off.

You know whats funny?
Oddly, Ive always assumed it to be a 1990 album for some reason. I think since it was released in September of 1989 most people associate it with 90s. I have even read publications that suggest it was released in 1990.
But I stand corrected, thanks. | |

To be fair, the album had hits that were in 1990 and 1991. Every single from "Escapade" to "Love Will Never Do" were released in 1990 and 1991. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

ooh this is hard. i'm not gonna include prince here since he would take up most of the list
i also chose to pick only 1 album per group/artist since some of these are amongst my fav bands, just like prince and several of their albums if not almost all would end up on the list.
so, in no particular order:
nine inch nails - pretty hate machine eurythmics - savage bruce springsteen - nebraska pet shop boys - actually R.E.M. - murmur new order - technique neneh cherry - raw like sushi david bowie - scary monsters kate bush - hounds of love the art of noise - who's affraid of the art of noise? the cure - disintegration joy division - closer george michael - faith sinead o connor - the lion & the cobra madonna - like a prayer U2 - the joshua tree bryan adams - reckless peter gabriel - so queen - a kind of magic the stone roses - the stone roses
and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |
