Now it's getting to the fun! I would prefer that The Smiths wouldn't have gotten higher than The Cure, but oh well. With the placement of Disintegration at 96 and Thriller at 127, all of my albums will be on the countdown. Which means, of course, that my tastes aren't terribly unique from the regular XPN crowd.
