I think, right at the beginning it was Revolver. OK Computer has been top since 2007/8, and the top 10 hasn't changed much over the past five years. Highway 61 making way for Kid A is the most significant change (& I'm not much of a fan of Kid A!)



Kid A has no business being in the top 10 greatest albums of all time IMO.

Is the ten years and the charts stop counting idea still intact? Because that might be the only way Ok Computer will change in the end.


Yes, that rule still applies but the site doesn't become ten years old until 2015 and then it'll probably take five or so years after that for the slate to be cleaned.

(Agree with GARY regarding Kid A, but some people obviously like it).

Neither has OK Computer, for that matter, which is an even worse album than Kid A. They're in my top 50, but top 10 is too much. Ditto for The Dark Side of the Moon, Nevermind, Abbey Road, Led Zeppelin IV, London Calling.......wait, that's almost the whole list. Laughing

If we could somehow fit 100 albums into the top 10 that would solve the problem Think

No, no, no!

1 - Abbey Road
2 - Funeral
3 - Ok Computer
4 - The Suburbs
5 - A Kid

The more Arcade Fire do, the more people will hear their old stuff. If you haven't heard of Radiohead or don't like them at this stage you never will. Also, Abbey Road is a masterpiece and I will not see it hypothetically No. 10 six years from now Shame on you

That's too much for The Suburbs, people will start to forget this album, i don't that it is going further than 30# in the future.

Interesting discussion. The Beatles to Radiohead to Arcade Fire.

I wonder if this will be the consensus in 2018.

Switch Nevermind with Ok Computer... Think And you might be right.
