Your best friend’s favorite album?
I don't know if i have a best friend. Of the friend i hang out with the most, i'm not sure what his fav album is, but he has been listening a lot to this the last couple months:
A criminally overlooked album:
Going down my top 100 of all-time list, i searched for the first album with a 5,000+ rank score. This is the first that turned up, a brilliant hip-hop album in the vein of de la soul or tribe called quest. Philosophical rap/r&b:
A scary album:
I do everything better to music, including sleep. I'll often put on an album as i go to bed and fall asleep to it. I've done this for decades. Not that i actually find it scary, but this is the only album that has ever induced nightmares. (After 2 nightmares in the same night, i shut it off.)
An album that makes you laugh:
I don't really have many albums of Weird Al, but he's always good for a laugh AND this is a pretty good compilation:
The Essential Weird Al Yankovic

Your favorite album title?
Interesting, but I never thought about that.
Let's say... "Lišće prekriva Lisabon" (meaning: "Leaves cover Lisbon"). Not sure why, it sounds nice to me when I say it.
