I don`t think they`re pretentious enough. Maybe I should start quoting Camus in every 2nd line.

I know it's a bit late but I just noticed a mistake in your Daydream Nation review. Kim Gordon sang 'Cross the breeze.

Ahhh but I didn`t say that though, what I said was ...

Quote:
Drake`s other 2 albums were mostly acoustic fare
As Pink Moon was virtually all acoustic and Five Leaves Left were as you say half acoustic that would make 1.5 out of his other 2 albums acoustic.

So my comment was entirely accurate

Nice list Urban, its good to see somebody else likes De Stijl the most of all their albums.

Id like to do a big list like this sometime but I don't feel like Im ready to it yet. Ive only listened to about 600 albums and thats nowhere near enough to make a list like this. Maybe in afew years.
