It’s finally happened...

It's definitely a toss-up for me.  I'm happy with either CTTE or SEBTP.  It's all good.

It must be a revolution!

Grab yer' muskets, men!

CTTE is just resting. It will return!!!

Is it possible to separare LPs from EPs?  For those not from the vinyl world, that means albums and singles!

It's just I don't tend to buy EPs, so that Porcupine Tree EP is going to have less reviews than an album, I should think.  But then again, Picchio Dal Pozzo has 17 ratings too, but that's an obscure Italian Canterbury band.

As somebody said, it's just a list guys, who cares what is number one.

A quick question:

Would you say those albums with less ratings, are better albums?  Or is that a misconception?

Meanwhile on the other front, the battle rages on...

Not at all, Snowy. I agree with what you said earlier regarding the light sense of this thread.

 

Doesn't matter to me which is number 1, I'll still listen to 28 of the top 30 regularly.

Guess which two don't get much play around my house???

If you need a hint I was listening to most of this music when it was first released! That should narrow it down...

It damn well does deserve number one!!!

I don't know about you guys but im over these ratings- who gives a crap? how many freakin reviews of those 3 albums (top3) do we need? If there are fanboys out there writing multiple reviews on those 3- they need to get a life

Edited by Drew

This is rediculous!!! how can an album like SEBTP with clap such as More Fool Me take over the spot that God meant to be taken by CTTE is beyond me. Close to the edge is the ultimate masterpiece of all times. it's a flawless piece of music, greatest thing ever made in the world, PERIOD. if you disagree you obviously don't know much about music or you're a rap fan and shoud therefore shut the hell up. SEBTP is good, but seriously how can you even compare???! its soooooooooo much weaker than CTTE! in fact, SEBTP is worse than relayer and tfto too. And it's the weakest Gabriel Genesis album ever. Even the best gabriel Genesis album is nowhere close to being as majestically good as CTTE. Jon Andersons voice is like an angel from heavens. Gabriel has a pop voice. thats why his solo career is pop, because he sucks. And collins sucks too.

COME ON PEOPLE RATE CTTE WITH FIVE STARS NOW OR GO TO HELL. IF IT"S NOT NUBBBER ONE IN TWO HOURS, I HATE YOU!!!
