[/quote]

If your list is on page 2 and you only had 50 then feel free to add 30 more if you want. It adds more overall point possibilities but don't feel that you have to. It's very easy to copy these lists in (done with page 1 already) so don't feel like its anymore work for me (cause its not). [:D]

I'd like to do page 2 possibly tomorrow, so if you don't have a list up yet at least post what you HAVE as you may not get it in on-time otherwise. You can look at other's lists for inspiration if you're at a loss. [xx(]

I know the poll's over. I am a newbie in these woods, though. I did notice the rules had the cutoff year of 1989 being the latest....however, I noticed some people included Violator from Depeche Mode. Technically, yes, it was released on 2/22/90. BUT!!!---Personal Jesus was released in Summer of 1989 AND!!!!! the album was recorded and produced in the studio in early '89 I believe. So......it was written and recorded in 1989. I know, I know........
