This is okay, but honestly, what is up with all this Brit pop and electronic stuff. Some is fine, but it feels like I am getting this everyday. And, this was not one of the 1001 best albums I have ever heard or anything that interesting. It would be nice to get some context on why these albums are included because a link to a Wikipedia entry is not that informative.

Heaux Tales by Jazmine Sullivan

Wow, that was the longest 32 minutes and 21 seconds of my life. In the spirit of this thing listened to the entire album. Painful. I suppose this was added because of the female empowerment movement at the time. I respect that, but I did not need to listen to this noise to have respect for women and their importance.

Born In The U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen

It blows my mind the amount of people that write reviews without understanding the lyrics and meaning of this album. Particularly those that think Born In The U.S.A. is somehow a rah-rah USA song. There is nothing wrong with being proud to be from America and Bruce Springsteen is, but he sees the flaws in America and that is the theme of the album. It is okay to not like story tellers if mindless music is all you are looking for. But if you are going to actually take time to review the theme of a story tellers album, at least listen to the lyrics and get the theme correct.
