1 Jimi Hendrix Experience - Are You Experienced?
2 Simon/Garfunkel/Soundtrack - The Graduate
3 Cream - Disraeli Gears
4 Beatles/Soundtrack - Magical Mystery Tour
5 Diana Ross And The Supremes' - Greatest Hits
Kids, do you still think you're smarter than your parents? Today's music industry (emphasis on industry) is a joke.
- defenswens26, on 01/23/2009, -3/+35All that matters is that Kanye didn't make it...

- mattyboy555, on 01/23/2009, -0/+20I LIKE YOUR PANTS AROUND YOUR FEET!!!!1111!!!ONE11!
- lowtolerance, on 01/23/2009, -0/+20I wish mainstream music deserved to be mainstream.
- ethamajin, on 01/23/2009, -0/+18I apologize on behalf of Canada....
- josepablos, on 01/23/2009, -3/+20Funny, i don't see Sigur Ros .. :(
- inactive, on 01/23/2009, -0/+16or is it just that only dumb people pay for music?
- Aut0b0t, on 01/23/2009, -0/+15You play your own skin flute? That's disgusting,
- RiMac, on 01/23/2009, -2/+16Am I the only one that doesn't feel personally offended by peoples' musical tastes?
- inactive, on 01/23/2009, -0/+14that generation raised the little greedy douches who made this industry as it is.
- NathanCH, on 01/23/2009, -5/+17Thank god AC/DC is in the top 5, else I'd be worried.
- realillusions, on 01/23/2009, -3/+15One real band, a decent solo artist (jack johnson), and 8 record label faces.
***** the RIAA. - JonnyClash, on 01/23/2009, -2/+14Who the hell is taylor swift?
- greenlight2001, on 01/23/2009, -0/+10I do an awesome rendition of Taylor Swift's songs on my skin flute.
- Worldchrisis, on 01/23/2009, -0/+9Her fanbase stretches far and double-wide.
- twertyto, on 01/23/2009, -0/+8I think a lot of moms are buying Nickelback for their kids.
- ethamajin, on 01/23/2009, -0/+8corporate rock.
- Dejital, on 01/23/2009, -0/+8Yes, they'd fit right in with all of those other (awful) bands.
- inactive, on 01/23/2009, -0/+7Teenaged girls like her...
- Noooooooooooooo, on 01/23/2009, -1/+8I don't get how people listen to Lil' Wayne but pass up great rappers like Lupe Fiasco.
- pyroguy56011, on 01/23/2009, -1/+8Have fun with your *****, white-trash/black-trash rap. Try to open your mind. If you're only listening to three hip-hop artists, you aren't being open-minded enough.
- StickWST, on 01/23/2009, -4/+11The entire mainstream hiphop scene needs to die.
- Yarkz, on 01/23/2009, -0/+7Never can be too much bitches.
- mnortei, on 01/23/2009, -1/+7srsly right. *goes to find album title to copy paste* Með Suð í Eyrum Við Spilum Endalaust was win!
- Chuckanut, on 01/23/2009, -1/+7Because they're the best ***** band on the planet, you stooge.
- coheedcollapse, on 01/23/2009, -0/+6Well. That's disappointing.
Unexpected, no. But disappointing.
I feel kind of the same way I'd feel if someone I knew were a fiendish crack addict at one point in his life and I found out he was using again. - Richandler, on 01/23/2009, -3/+8Have either of you even listen do Tha Carter III Album. If you did you would see that not only can he rap but can be lyrically inclined when he chooses.
- SilverRocket, on 01/23/2009, -8/+13***** Jack Johnson!
- Pirate42, on 01/23/2009, -2/+7DAMN YOU COLDPLAYYY!
- Kevinok, on 01/23/2009, -0/+5Wow that is really depressing.
- vsujohn2, on 01/23/2009, -1/+6People just love to hate things other people like.
- eastwood24, on 01/23/2009, -0/+5Dugg for screen name.
- pheyze, on 01/23/2009, -2/+7Lil Wayne is certainly not the most lyrically skilled rapper, but to suggest that he shouldn't be considered a rapper is absurd. Buried for ignorance.
- homesqua, on 01/23/2009, -0/+5http://www.viruscomix.com/shtbands.jpg
- cissystrut, on 01/23/2009, -1/+6get The Flaming Lips -Yoshimi Battles Pink Robots album and never turn back
- pyroguy56011, on 01/23/2009, -1/+5Probably because their new album doesn't even come close to comparing with their previous stuff.
- shadowmoose, on 01/23/2009, -0/+4I tried to like Nickelback because they were so "popular." However their lead singer is a complete douche. And their songs suck. Popularity does not equal good. That's what I learned.
- Yage2006, on 01/23/2009, -0/+4Nice list. Shows why music consumption is down.
- clickmyface, on 01/23/2009, -0/+4Can I just say this: I had zero idea who this Taylor Swift was until I saw her on SNL last week. And im young....
- Fixhotep, on 01/23/2009, -0/+4I find it funny that people slammed the last few albums for not sounding like their old ***** and have been screaming for them to return to their roots, and then are now slamming them for sounding like their old *****. Classic.
