What’s the album you’ve listened to the most in your life ?

[Yann]

And what’s its rank in your greatest album chart?

We could say that the album we’ve listened to the most is our favorite.
However it’s not necessarily our current favorite.
And also, our charts are called “Greatest album chart”, so I guess other criteria than pure subjective taste may come into the equation.

Mine is The Nightfly by Donald Fagen. (ranked 3 in my chart)

Probably something from my younger years (teens) like Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits.

Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits

It's not even in my chart, apart from my 80's chart.

My most listened to album of the past 5 years is Sgt Pepper by The Beatles.
Closely followed by the White Album and Revolver.

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles

Tough to say, but it'd probably be either Emotionalism by The Avett Brothers or The Wild Hunt by The Tallest Man On Earth, only because I listened to those albums incessantly when I first found them. And since then, I still revisit them pretty frequently

Doolittle by Pixies

Safe to assume it's probably this followed closely by the rest of my top 10, literally just had it on there again 10 minutes ago. Lovely.

I don’t have any way of knowing, but it’s probably something I got into when I was 16-18 and never got outo. U2, Radiohead, Modest Mouse... could be any release from any of those. Jeff Buckley, Bjork, and Pearl Jam would be biting at their heals too.

I know I’ve listened to Meshes of Voices a lot, and Last.fm says that’s my top, but I only started scrobbling a couple years ago, and scrobbles only account for a fraction of what I’ve listened.

Yeah, I wish I knew.

Achtung Baby is a contender as I listened to it a lot when I was a pre-teen. Then got into it later as a teenager. I don't think its on my overall chart though.

I've listened to loads of Belle and Sebastian. I think maybe Tigermilk and Dear Catastrophe Waitress the most. They have always been easy default setting listens for me. Neither are on my overall chart currently.

I listened to Pet Sounds and OK Computer religiously when I was 16. These albums defined my transition to more adult listening tastes (after listening to a lot of fairly commercial 90s rock). I'd love to know how many times I've heard these albums in total. I'd guess 50+. So one of these might be the one. They are both reasonably high on my overall chart.
