Badu still better be #1 tho.
― I Never Promised You A Hose Harden (Eric H.), Friday, 14 September 2018 15:59 (five years ago) link
tbh I believe #1 still would be either Badu or Portishead, even now.
― Johnny Fever, Friday, 14 September 2018 16:02 (five years ago) link
seems redundant to poll 10s albums once more just to trace changes in taste over 8 years... more fun to do singles
― niels, Friday, 14 September 2018 16:30 (five years ago) link
if we were going to do albums we may as well do singles too
