Man I love the 2000s but I haven't found much to like in 2000.

Parachutes - Coldplay

Probably my favorite from 2000. 2001 was a better year for music imo

The best album of 1991 is:

Loveless by My Bloody Valentine

Which is better than BEA's #1 of Nevermind (though Loveless is ranked 2nd for the year).

Love that composition. It's really one of those "desert island" albums for me.

1975 is my birth year and from it comes my all-time favourite album:

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd

That's fortuitous.

and guess what? It's also BEA"s best album of 1975.. Hooray.
