Yeah I’m with you, other than “new shoes” I never really got into him

well he has lots of great songs, Rewind, Last Request, and actually my fav was never a single, it's this little song about his grandpa dying, Autumn Leaves

No Jacket Required is the first album on this countdown so far that I own a copy of.

 

I did a rough calculation for All Over The World : The Very Best Of Electric Light Orchestra and make it about 8200 points so it just missed getting into this top 100.

I'm surprised to see Making Movies as high as 81. I suppose it sold steadily over the 80s as Dire Straits' popularity increased. I would expect Brothers In Arms to be in the top 20.

I did buy Parachutes back in the day, really liked coldplay in the very beginning, but then they became too poppy and totally lost me as fan

 

Never liked dire straits, one of my least fav bands ever, the Lighthose Family of the 80s ;) same for Bruno
