The 2008 Labor Day List-A-Thon

Come one, come all to view the finest collection of lists that this website has EVER seen. Surprises behind every corner! Shocking musical taste discoveries at every curve in the road! THIS is what Labor Day is all about my friends.  As you can see by the picture above, I’ve pulled out all the stops for this event..look at the big top! I took that picture of our tent (located just outside BEP Studios) moments ago, and I assure you that despite the majesty you are no doubt able to perceive from the photo, in person, it’s really REALLY something to see. But, if you’re unable to join us today, fear not, as I vow to you to do my very best to convey to you the awesomeness via words. And pictues. And whatever else I come up with.
But without further ado, I hereby call our List-A-Thon to order. People from all walks of life have contributed lists to us today..from celebrities and rock stars to commoners like you and I..we have all gathered here because of our appreciation of music..and lists.  If you wish to contribute, feel free to post your list (of your all time favorite records) in the comments section!! Oh the fun!
HEEERE WEEE GOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

BRANDON’S ALL TIME TOP 25 CDs (as of right now)

#1 – Damien Rice ‘O’
When it came time to make this list, I was in a bit of a pickle. I’ve had the same favorite cd for years on top of years, and it had lots of sentimental value but realistically it was only my number 1 for one song.  It was time for a change.  That’s where ‘O’ comes in. This record changed a lot of things for me musically. It was basically my gateway drug, it opened my eyes to a whole genre of music that has grown to surpass metal as my favorite. I love this cd so very much, as much today as the day I first listened in fact. It’s a perfect storm of awesome..musically, lyrically, everythingly.This cd dominates my itunes, it dominates my last.fm, and I feel very ok saying it’s become my favorite cd of all time.
