This is an excellent nineties chart! I love OK Computer (I know, everyone does, but with good reason), Grace, The La's, and Let Love In, among a number of your other selections. I also really like Urban Hymns as a top ten pick, as I love its ambition and grandiosity, something I enjoyed about the decade as a whole. Great work on this list!
