chaklux Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 I have a good feeling Beyonce will have two entries. Lemonade will likely be ranked higher 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bielneira Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 21 hours ago, Bends said: Björk was at the peak of her popularity at that time, the alternative and electronic genre also reached its apogee. In addition, this is her best era in terms of music videos, which complemented the songs incredibly cool. The context is also important: during the recording period, a crazy Bjork fan sent her a package with a bomb, which was intercepted by the police. The album is inspired by this incident, as Björk was stressed and worried about herself and her children. In general, influence is also important. Homogenic has definitely had an impact on the electronic genre, more than Vespertine. I get it, but it was supposed to be a list of "best albums", not "most impactful" ones.

My hope is Folklore, but I could see Red, 1989, or Fearless getting it too Taylor's 11 albums, including self titled, will be the first 11 on the list 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Odyssey. Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 As a diehard Madonna fan, I cannot for the life of me understand these lists or fans who say Like a Prayer is her best album. Like… Ray of Light? Confessions? Music? American Life? I'd be SO slayed if they'd picked Erotica, the *actual* best Madonna album, for a list like this. Forever under appreciated. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like it's actually kinda shocking they chose Listen Without Prejudice and Norman Rockwell over Faith and Born To Die. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yeah, I didn't obviously expect it to make it, nor Erotica But my point is that Madonna has MUCH better albums than Like A Prayer. I rank it in the bottom 5.
