The chart is ending up mainly restricted to one album per artist and imho a lot of great lyrical albums are on the chart as of now. Nick Cave is in, deservedly. Lennon's Imagine gets moved into the top 3. If I get more than one vote for an album that gets noticed. I've still got to check out some of these picks I've never heard before...

You know, I love Aeroplane Over the Sea as much as anyone. I love it partly for lyrics like "For now we are young, let us lay in the sun and count every beautiful thing we can see," for example. Or "In your heart there's a spark that just screams For a lover to bring a child to your chest that could lay as you sleep"

But then there is:

Semen stains the mountaintop...

...Your father made fetuses with flesh licking ladies...

...While powerful pistons were sugary sweet machines
Smelling of semen all under the garden

The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars by David Bowie

You've made the great mistake of not including this masterpiece in the chart.

I take that to be coming-of-age symbolism, actually, but it's not made explicit. What's wrong with that (or any of those lines)?
