I absolutely adore this album. I have it No. 2 in my chart. I came to it from my parents hearing me listen to Vampire Weekend and recommending it. First listen blew me away! Had to keep listening to it. I love every song on it but in particular "Diamonds On The Soles Of Her Shoes."
For me this is one of those albums where the music is as important as the memories of people and places that go with it. Nonetheless, it is an absolutely stellar album. 100/100
And no, I'm not drunk.

Would you stop already. PLEASE? How is making stupid posts bashing someone better than Naples' posts? Answer: It isn't. It's way more annoying. Leave Naples alone.
But anyway, Graceland is a genuine masterpiece. Really really great stuff.

sorry bro, but he needs to stop.
if this site's top ranked albums were shitty albums with one good song on them then maybe he wouldn't be so ***, but we are talking about the best albums in the world.
these albums deserve more respect than Naples ****** them every day.
make him stop and i will stop, i am praying that someone will make this fkn wap stop.

you are lying.
you pick best tracks like you made your list, 5 percent opinion, 95 percent what the charts or album page says.
you are too consistent to get away with lies _________________ "I would expect something wrong with the poll if the chart favorite was not the poll winner" - naples 12-8-11
