My Is This It doesn't have "New York City Cops", it's on the other disc which is a DVD of their music videos. "Hard to Explain" is also my favourite Strokes song, but "Last Night" was the song that got me into them.
I have never listened to a single Bowie album (except for The Next Day) after Lets Dance because I had an understanding that those albums were awful. This list confirmed that for me.
My five favourite in no order:
Station to Station
Low
Hunky Dory
"Heroes"
Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps)
It took me a while to get into Bjork. I used to watch her videos from her first three albums when I was a little kid, just saw them as entertaining. As a teen I though she was one of those artists that people made fun of. It wasn't until Medulla when I decided to actually check out her music and forget about her persona and antics. I have listened to and enjoyed many of her albums. I wouldn't say I'm a fan, but I do have a higher appreciation for her work.
Here is my order:
Enjoy a lot, maybe even a little love
01 Homogenic
02 Post
03 Medulla
-----
Haven't given this much of a chance but enjoyed my handful of listens
04 Vespertine
-----
Would just pick a couple tracks from these albums to listen to
05 Biophilia
06 Volta
-----
Sorry everyone but this album just doesn't do it for me
07 Debut
As for the soundtracks, I can't remember them, but Dancer in the Dark is a fantastic movie.
I'm not a big enough fan to own a Tegan and Sara album, but I would own a greatest hits. I guess this list is the closest I'll get to a greatest hits. Unless anyone else has a few other "must have" tracks to suggest?
I know I'm like years late on responding to this but I just wanted to say I think this track is wonderful. It starts off as a pretty nice ballad then towards the end of the song things being to sound more epic as it builds up. I'm really looking forward for his new album.
Although I believe your top pick was a poor poor choice (my least favourite 90's album from them) and Yoshimi is ridiculously low, I do love that Hit to Death in the Future Head is recognized as one of their great albums; "The Magician vs. the Headache", ugh, such an amazing track. The only two FL albums I haven't listened to are Oh My Gawd and Telepathic Surgery because I was always led to believe that they were so awful.
Here would by my top 5 picks:
The Soft Bulletin (also one of my favourite albums of all time)
Hit to Death in the Future Head
Transmission From the Satellite Heart
Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
Embryonic
My vote goes to "Under Your Spell" by Desire, although I like the album version better than the soundtrack one.
liking the new Sally track, a lot more like the stuff from her debut.
