The difference is that Kylie's album is full of old songs of herself and Anastacia recorded songs that are by other people (covers). A bit before in this thread, we agreed upon including cover CDs in the list, so I guess Anastacia is allowed then.

Whatever, we'll still refer to you two as Furan Duran :dazzled: :loveshower:

I'm such a sheep :blank: Noticed that I always go with the trend, whether it's copying Brent's avatar, stealing Rudy's or having an evil cat one. yeah

Also, The Shins made a CD called 'Port Of Morrow' not 'The part of tomorrow' :laugh3: I don't know what to do with the bonus. What does this mean, do you include this in your list or not? because you have not ranked your list, now they would all receive 100 points each and Passion Pit ... I don't know. Please clarify.

I agree with Brent and Nattatouille (wow, your post was very helpful!). If you want to do this, you should see it as a 'hobby' thing and have a back-up plan to make a living. Also, it might help to start posting reviews you write. Like you say you wrote one for Green Day's album. Try to submit it somewhere. Try to write pro bono for some sites. Even post it at rateyourmusic.com or forums like this one for that matter, just to practice. Schredder2 started a thread recently for reviews of CDs and that one might be a good start. If you post in there, you can get feedback as well: 2012 music summaries By writing pro bono you can start building up a nice CV and then later on you might even get some money out of the music journalism and get to interview/see some nice bands. Good luck! :thumbsup:

Ah my bad, I got from your previous posts that you were just going for it, whether or not you even like the bands. I guess that is not the case then.

The guidelines ask between 5 and 25 albums in your list. I don't know if we should go for lists that contain less than five. Can you guys think of some more albums to get a top 5?

stadium: wikipedia So yeah, it is a place where they hold (outdoor) sports and concerts. O2 arena I would include as well. 23,000 is still a lot. btw, my tip is: Don't do it. Especially trying to meet the support act - just because that's easier than Green Day ... what a great reason to do so. I bet the band is thrilled to hear from you that you want their autograph just because they were easier to approach than Green Day. I hope the question about Kaiser Chiefs being worth the try is about seeing them in concert and not about hunting for their autographs. I don't know, I just don't get the whole autograph hunting thing, that's probably why I sound so negative :/ It's just, okay if a band means the world to you or they have a signature event anyway, but to hunt them down to meet them even if you don't really care for the band, but just because you have the opportunity ... I really don't get that.

I don't really know what the problem is. I get from your post that you received the comic book, but that your copy has no number. I didn't order the Lithograph one, so I didn't receive a comic yet, but my guess is that the limited Lithograph edition is limited to 250 but that they haven't numbered each comic. I don't see what the problem is with that? Or did I not understand your post? I can place an order for you if you want. Just PM me.

*bump* This needs to be brought to people's attention again, me thinks

I spy .... a Christmas avatar for Mary!!!

Oh you're right. YellowTeardrops13, it is the idea that you vote for best songs that are released since this year. Coldplay's Charlie Brown and Hurt Like Heaven are not allowed because it is on Mylo Xyloto wich was released in 2011. Same goes for M83 - Midnight City and others on your list. [edit] Updated my list again on 11-12-2012, now it's final

Neneh is from Sweden? :stunned:

I'm flying to Middle America within two weeks, just so you know, bonita :wink3:

^ I do that. I always bike to work, very hard. Brent, are you going to leave your tracklist of the mixtape in the Music section? I think your mixtape has been reviewed already :)

^ Alt-J, Purity Ring, DIIV, Lana Del Rey, Dry The River, Minus The Tiger, Django Django, Ultraista, Melody's Echo Chamber, Laurel Halo, Jessie Ware, The Memories, Light Asylum, Debo Band, Poliça, Imagine Dragons, to name a few :wacky: I'd say a pretty good year for debut albums :D Oh, and before this year I never heard of Susanne Sundfør, Lost In The Trees, Liars, Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti or Wild Nothing :bomb:

It's because you're so cool and funny and all. Get used to it. When you get rid of this girl the next one is going to haunt you, and then the next, and the next, and many of them. STOP BEING SO COOL :angry:

Oh, I was talking to the person above me, but I see now that this is on the next page, so it doesn't make so much sense reading it on stand-alone basis. But mixtapes are cool! We make them for eachother in the Music Section :)

I edited my list ... again

Yeah :/ but they said the same about this year. :( Depeche Mode, if not this year, then next year :dance:

Oh, I didn't know, I have the Christmas theme as default when I am not logged in and in that one it looks fine. I'll try Cyan, hehehe. Fran, I did the same because I didn't have the songs yet. That's also why the quality is a bit bad :disappointed: Btw, Ariel will come up with her review! it just takes a her a bit longer, but she said she did not forget about the thing and is still going to do it. That'd be fantastic! Everyone has reviewed their tape then except loudefix :wacky: and yes Susan! Jooooin in :D I read/lurked the threads first too before I joined in.

Nice! Which one of you lot should I vote for best newcomer this year?

Many thanks Trisha! I was your mixtape maker :P I already gave away the first few songs a few pages ago, but I guess you didn't see that, hahaha! Well, this way it's even better I think because now I can give the whole tracklisting at once and got the whole review from you in one piece. I added comments in cyan in your quote: Thank you for the review!

These two reviews did not get a tracklisting/reply yet: Jeremyy ‘s review and Crests’ Review

His birthday was a week ago. Are you ever going to tell us if you will review the rest of the mixtape too? And are you going to give the tracklist of your mixtape? Please :(

As a not Christian I believe in love. It should not matter what sex this is about. For me marriage is not about being faithful to God, but it's a bond between two people that show to eachother and to others that they made a promise to stay faithful to eachother, in good and bad times. It's about respect and caring. and I know homophobes and also people that are intolerant. Already making a distinguishment between kissing eachother on the mouth in public or holding hands in public is for me intolerance. I understand if you don't like people making out in public in general, but don't make the distinguishment between 'oh they are boy and girl so it's okay' and 'iiiiiew fags!' or 'I don't go to that pub because it's where gay people go'.
