Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
| Quote: | The soundtrack to my childhood was the music of the golden standards of pop music and for a long time it took me awhile to really appreciate Brian Wilson’s labor of love that he poured his heart and soul into. Now, I had always loved the Beach Boys since I heard the very first collection of songs that left the car radio and entered my ears. I’m not sure what exactly captured my imagination at the time but the important fact of the matter is it did. The car radio was where I learned everything about what music could be and The Beach Boys were in great company as I experienced music that was grounded in melody and harmony which up until I was fourteen believed to be the utter objective definition of music. The Beach Boys stuck with me the most out of all of those musicians and songwriters however and it was also one of the few bands both of my parents seemed to be on the same page about—my mother loved the melodies and harmonies, my father enjoyed the baroque pop arrangements and compositional merits; it was very much a case of different cause but same effect.
Pet Sounds is a very popular record for great reasons, and believe it or not I had a lot of trouble dealing with how Pet Sounds seemed to be the only thing Brian Wilson wrote that people even remotely cared about to the point there was this short period of my life where I wrote it off as a sort of a boring record that the critics liked for abstract reasons that were irrelevant. Of course all of this has changed as I sit here with Pet Sounds as my number one record of all time and I feel it’s this timeless sort of transcendent piece of art. I can’t imagine why or how I could ever write this record off. |

Don't Tell The Driver by Mick Turner
Perfect album. Each notes, beat, noise is masterfully placed. Makes you sad, happy, calm all at once. Listening is a meditative experience that uplifts and transforms. Feel the sea and sand of a lonely, lovely Australian island

Little Earthquakes by Tori Amos
There are a lot of really mature, introspective things I can say as to why this has been my #1 for most of the past six years, but I'm too tired for that, and I'm scared I'll say something sexist like "bcuz she's hawt" or something, which would COMPLETELY ruin what makes this album so special.
So instead, I will point out that, while some of you guys change your #1s several times a year, I've kept mostly the same #1 for HALF A DECADE!!!!
Gimme a cookie, Romanelli.
