Two thoroughly excellent albums here. The Fame Monster is in my all time top ten (The Fame was decent too, if patchy) and Beautiful World is in my all time top twenty, a masterclass in how to make a pop comeback work, fantastic album :wub: Shine especially, really pleased that they're playing it, has been my highlight since my first listen of the album, I'm a sucker for Mark Owen led tracks.

'Patience' is fantastic and easily my favourite single of theirs. Don't really like 'Shine'. 'Rule The World' is great as well if that counts as a single from BW.

29. LIFE FOR RENT- Dido

RELEASED: 2003

PEAK POSITION: 1

WKS ON CHART: 54

 

Experiencing the biggest opening of any album by a female solo act ever “Life For Rent” exploded onto the charts back in 2003 after selling 400k in one week, overtaken by Susan Boyle in 2009. It’s the first of two appearances on this list for the singer whose last album “Safe Trip Home” won’t feature (NO SPOILER :D )

 

White Flag! :D Another favourite from when I was younger, even though it actually stalked me wherever I went!
Surprisingly, I never bought anything by Dido, even though she should technically be my sort of thing. White Flag is easily her best song though imo. My friend LOONED for her something chronic, even had a Dido fansite at the time and was first in line to buy Life For Rent at 9am the morning it came out.
'White Flag' and the title track are both brilliant and absolute classics. Don't know the other two singles.

30. Take That "Beautiful World"

 

#01 Paitence - really like this one, not like the bland boyband ballads that JLS and 1D give us

#01 Shine - this is great too - it would be better if it wasn't known as "the song on the morrisons ads"

#17 I'd Wait For Life - don't remember this

#02 Rule The World - not as good as some people claim this to be

28. CRAZY LOVE- Michael Buble

RELEASED: 2009

PEAK POSITION: 1

WKS ON CHART: 129

 

Finished in the top 3 for both 2009 & 2010.

 

White Flag :wub:
Michael Buble's Crazy Love will just not get lost! :P I'm sure it's a great album though, Haven't Met You Yet is a great tune!
'Haven't Met You Yet' is a good song, I absolutely hated it at first but eventually came to accept it. Still can't believe that was such a big hit! His version of 'Cry Me A River' is also okay.

Life For Rent :wub: I never listened to No Angel but I checked out LFR after loving White Flag and it was a very good album!

 

Not keen on the Buble myself but I do like Haven't Met You Yet and he is f***ing HOT if that counts :blush:

28. Michael Buble "Crazy Love"

 

#05 Haven't Met You Yet - this really isn't my style of music, I don't think I could take a whole album of it :puke: Buble must be the most overated albums artist ever, used on too many reality shows :manson:

Life For Rent :wub: I never listened to No Angel but I checked out LFR after loving White Flag and it was a very good album!

You should definitely listen to No Angel. It's a bit bleaker than Life For Rent, but very very good.

27. SPICE- Spice Girls

RELEASED: 1996

PEAK POSITION: 1

WKS ON CHART: 72

 

Providing us with the term “Girl Power”, this is the album that introduced us all to the fearless fivesome and is home to 5 chart topping singles (if you count the double A-Side separately). 15 Wks at No 1, and selling at over 430k a week at its peak, it proved that the girls could sell albums as well as the singles, it remains an outstanding pop album IMO.

 

Spice Girls are ridiculously overrated, can't stand them. '2 Become 1' in particular is just awful.
