I often find these lists to be much the same, but they're a very good tool for people who are just starting to get properly into music. That's how I discovered so many great albums, and that in turn led to me discovering more great, but less well known, albums.

From C_Krug2009 05/28/2013 02:02
Considering from the direction the channel was going by taking 500 music critics and musicians opinions to devise this list, I think it's safe to say that the musical opinion of the those 500 ppl and their opinions are valid to the extent that the list itself is quite truthful. Music is all opinion remember and ranking is based on how nice the music sounds to ppl. Music should be ranked on the overall "SOUND". In the "sound", the following must be heard:
Song writing, lyrics, style, overall theme, emotion, energy and creativity.

I think it's safe to say, this chart is a great example of such components that should be considered in rating music
