I used to own Born in the U.S.A. on tape but i wore it out from listening to it too much.

I can't believe Alanis Morisette is on there. I sold that cd away because I was embarassed to have it.

If this list was made about a year or two in the future, I'm pretty sure The Strokes wouldn't be on there. Just a fad band.

And Eminem only gets to be on there because of all the controversy he stirred up and because if he wasn't, RS would lose all their readers.

Meh.

First of all Jagged Little Pill was a very provocative album. No one had ever seen that kind of heart and soul poured out into an album. It's good the whole way through.

Next Eminem opened up areas in rap unopen to us white folk. He's one of the greatest performers ever. He's up there with Elvis and The Beatles. Not to mention the intelligence level of his rap. He's a rapping and rhyming fool. He can spin it better than most African-American rappers.

As for the Strokes... They have done some different things with their music. But I agree that they are sorta a fad band.

Vampyr... Those weren't the top 22 of all time, they were the top 22 of the last 2 decades. Otherwise the beatles, elvis, and nirvana would have been the top three in everything.

Whoa I've looked over this list about 3 times now and maybe I'm retarted but I didn't see L.A. Woman by The Doors anywhere on here? Whoa!
