i like lists as much as the next guy. but, i think albums are more important then single songs. its easy to make oen song. but an album. its a whole other beast.. is there any plans to do a top XX for albums? or are you stickin' to the singles kind of thing?
Posted by: trevor at December 23, 2004 12:04 AMi am actually much more into single songs than albums. but i agree that it's a complete different thing to make an album than a single song, as well it is to listen to a single song compared to a whole album. somehow i have got tired to albums because in most cases they are too long and have too many bad songs, don't you think? ep's of 4-5 songs would be the ultimate format to release music, but doing so today won't let artists join the music industry for 100% it seems.
of course there are great exceptions when it comes to albums, and i will make some kind of list of them too. probably just a top10 though.
