This is the second thread you've started about this list! WHY???

My end of year list is desperately predictable so I'll say that one.

it is not the same list! there are differences, and quite big ones, if you ask me!

― Jay Kid (Jay K), Friday, 12 December 2003 14:49 (twenty-one years ago)

Yes: 1) 8) 10)

and that's it.

Outkast would have to be at number one or two, obv.

― Jay Kid (Jay K), Friday, 12 December 2003 15:00 (twenty-one years ago)

That Shelby Lynne album is really good though.

I thought Uncut's 2003 Albums list was dull....Mojo is even Worse!

― DJ Martian (djmartian), Friday, 12 December 2003 16:47 (twenty-one years ago)

Haven't seen Mojo's but I had a glance at Uncut's and Q's and was surprised at how little they agree. Q is making a last desperate bid to become marginally more cutting edge while Uncut has given up on the new and is receding into sepia-tinted nostalgia. This difference was more interesting than the albums on either list, most of which I've never heard and never will. I can't remember a time when there was so little consensus, even in the middle of the mainstream, about what new music is worth hearing. Consensus-haters have been willing this, but I'm not sure they are going to like it now it's here. From where I'm standing it looks much more like entropy than an acceptance and celebration of diversity.

Has there not been an official one-and-only 2003 year-end ILM'er top 10* thread? There were at least four such threads by this time last year. Amazing.

*I could be forgetting the top 5, top 20, top 40, top 100, and top 500 threads.

― Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 12 December 2003 17:49 (twenty-one years ago)

B-b-but they're out (and in) EVERY year
