1. Doolittle: The greatest album ever made it, Debaser has the best bassline of all time, there isn't one weak song.
2. Daydream Nation: The combination of Moore/Ranaldo is the greatest guitar partnership of all time.
3. Closer: Ian Curtis is the greatest songwriter of all time, (Or Elliott Smith, both guys just get to me).
4. Stone Roses: Overrated but great, I Wanna Be Adored is a masterpiece.
5. Appetite For Destruction: Highly overrated band, but this was fucking epic, the only GNR album you need.
6. Remain In Light: This will probably move up to 3rd here after another listen, it's just a fun cool album, David Byrne is too cool.
7. The Queen Is Dead: Would have been higher previously but I still appreciate its greatness.
8. Disintegration: Strong in parts, but I've never been able to fully grasp The Cure.
9. The Joshua Tree: Used to love it but it has not aged well.
10. Thriller: Cool, and a great album to dance around to, just kinda forgot about it.

I actually like Sister better than Daydream Nation. It's like it's darker....Sister album.

Should I be embarrassed that I've never even heard of "Remain In The Light" before?

Edit: Ohh, The Talking Heads. I remember that album. I don't think I liked it...

Am I the only one who thinks Closer is the worst? It's just a boring album, and Ian Curtis can't sing to save his life.

Talking Heads are one the coolest bands of all time.
Check their stuff out, Stop Making Sense is my all time favourite live album (And the video shows the genius of David Byrne to its full extent Cool )

He doesn't have the best singing voice, but the man was a genius, there is something about Ian Curtis that made Joy Division mind-blowing, he just kind of gets inside your head and speaks to you.

I just can't get past his voice. I keep trying so hard to like them, mostly because I really like their name, but I just don't get it.
