The Observer music monthly have done their list and it's pretty a good one.

In the actual magasine yesterday they had 100 tacks of the decade too. Number 1 was beyonce - crazy in love  Eek

Go for it. I'll post results this evening, so any more lists in by then will be included. If you fancy picking some albums that have already been picked once that'd be grand, as we currently only have 41 albums appearing more than once.

My list, for those wondering. Compiling this made me realise that it's been a reasonably poor decade, but that is documented heavily elsewhere.

(Reverse order)
10 Away from the Sun (3 Doors Down)
9 By the Way (Red Hot Chilli Peppers)
8 Heathen Chemistry (Oasis)
7 Origin of Symmetry (Muse)
6 Kasabian (Kasabian)
5 Think Tank (Blur)
4 Hot Fuss (Killers)
3 Language, Sex, Violence, Other (Stereophonics)
2 American IV: The Man Comes Around (Johnny Cash)
1 Black Hole and Revelations (Muse)

Possibly coming up on the rails as a late runner is the Them Crooked Vultures album, but I haven't listened to it enough yet to place it.

I agree it was a pretty rubbish decade. I therefore will only nominate what I feel to be classics

1. Final Straw - Snow patrol
2. A Rush of Blood to the head - Coldplay
3. Employment - Kaiser Chiefs
4. X & Y - Cold play
5. Hopes & Fears - Keane

I blame Blinkpip and PHIL!!!!!! for this. Utterly shocking.

Key question: Why?

(Why Blinkpip and Phil, now why do you deem it to be shocking, I can understand that)

Why?
A. I'd imagine them to be the two most likely to vote for it
B. Utterly shocking that it would make the top ten, even from a very poor decade
C. How many votes did it get?

Yes, that's my personal top 10, I'm the only person to vote for it, neither Blinkpip nor Phil have voted at all.

Sadly, my top three are nowhere near the top of the list, and the key giveaway is that the bloody Arctic Dullards aren't in that top 10 at all when, without wishing to spoil things utterly, they very much are on the overall list.

Any more votes are very much welcome, even if you don't fancy doing a top 10, 2 or 3 is great.

Anyone can make any changes they like before 8pm this evening, or add new lists. I'd ask you to post if you've made changes, rather than editing the original post though as I've already totted up the existing votes and will probably miss it entirely.
