You NEVER EVER see Court and Spark at number one, but that's great. And I pretty much like everything else here too. You have the same taste for forgotten albums that I do. I have most of the same ones in mine.

Not that your chart is bad it's just that i usually don't like a greatest hits album but the rest is very good
