Re: Amazon.com 2008 EOY albums list

Again no Tallest Man On Earth.

Re: Amazon.com 2008 EOY albums list

Wow. Scarlett Johansson.

Re: Amazon.com 2008 EOY albums list

Wow, this is probably the list I've seen yet.

Re: Amazon.com 2008 EOY albums list

I meant worst EOY list I've seen

Re: Amazon.com 2008 EOY albums list

I'm not one of the Kings of Leon haters here; "Because of the Times" made my top ten last year. But the new album just isn't that good, and now I've seen it at No. 1 on two lists already.

Re: Amazon.com 2008 EOY albums list

Pretty weak list, though it's nice to finally see Erykah Badu on a list.

I might like Kings of Leon more, but angry teenage half-understandings of politics have started to really annoy me. It's like they're the stereotype political candidates are always trying to associate me with.

Re: Amazon.com 2008 EOY albums list

I like them more than the Hold Steady who they kind of remind me of.

Past amazon...

Henrik, ever decide what to do with those past amazon.com lists? I have them saved on my hard drive (the 60s-1998 or so)- I don't think they're on the amaozn Web site any longer.
