i could ask you the very same question.. i mean prince, human league, d'angelo and madness?
i actually quite like your taste, although to see purple rain at the pinnacle is a grandiose disappointment..

A select few of these albums are excellent, but the majority are, IMO, just not that good.

I like your 80s selection. You have a great party soundtrack here. Pity you can't relate to the recent songwriters from my chart. You certainly don't have to like Sufjan Stevens or Arcade Fire, but they defintely know how to write a song.
