Put Your Records On.

These "Top 5 favorite" lists on FB are ridic. I cannot possibly pick my top 5 favorite albums or anything for that matter. So I compiled my own list of my favorite albums ever, thus far. So in no particular order, part one:
-------------------------------------------------------
1. HIStory: Past, Present and Future Book I - Michael Jackson
- Don't make me pick just one MJ album. At least this puts most of it together nicely, in 2 Discs.
*Recommended Downloads: Disc 1- ALL OF IT. Disc 2 - They Don't Care About Us, Stranger In Moscow

2. Discovery - Daft Punk
- Classic album all the way around. One More Time? I don't think so. This shits gonna be on repeat forever and ever and ever.
*Recommended Downloads: Digital Love, One More Time, Something About Us, Face to Face, Too Long

3. The Velvet Rope - Janet Jackson
- Sorry to say, but Janet was at her best when she was depressed. Her music has not been the same since. (All For You was respectable tho nonetheless)
*Recommended Downloads: Got til' its Gone, I Get Lonely, Go Deep, You, Everytime, Together Again (deeper remix), What About, Anything, Special

4. The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill - Lauryn Hill
- Ms. Hill has only released one album, ONE FULL LENGTH ALBUM! She got it right the first time, let's hope she makes good if she ever releases a second album.
*Recommended Downloads: Doo Wop (That Thing), Ex Factor, Nothing Even Matters, Everything is Everything, To Zion, Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You

5. Butterfly - Mariah Carey
- For me personally, on a beautiful summer day I need to hear Honey. On this album she dabbled in r&b and hip hop, a big step for her at the time (1997).
*Recommended Downloads: Honey, Breakdown, The Roof, Fourth of July, Babydoll, Close My Eyes, The Beautiful Ones, My All

6. Lucy Pearl - Lucy Pearl
- So, so, so sad how this super group only released one album. I guess its a good thing, 'cause how could they've followed up on this? I wonder.
*Recommended Downloads: La La La, Dance Tonight, You, Good Love, Remember the Times

7. Housemix 2000 - Various Artists
- The first compilation album on this list. This album has the tunes I remember from '98 - '00, in terms of house. This was and still is the shit.
