1. Wow, Alvin... Zooropa went from #11 to #2... That has to be the biggest rise ever

  2. I still don't understand how could have been Zooropa so low lol
  3. Now that Songs is well and truly sunk in after about 50 plays, I am doing a retrospective listen at entire catalogue. Going backwards. Currently halfway through ATYCLB. It hit me hard how soft, cheesy and generally unpleasant the back half of HTDAAB is. Even more so after nearly 10 years. It hasn't aged well. Looking forward to 90's though.

  4. Also interesting: Achtung Baby went from "best album of all ages" to "4th best album of all ages"

  5. I guess it was there just because "It has to be there"
