@nico-di-angelfish tagged me,, and I forget to do these if I don’t do them immediately so here are my 9 (current) favorite albums:

1 and 2 are both albums by The Clash. The first is their debut album, which has Remote Control, Garageland, and Hate and War. I love how gritty and honest it all is; strummer and jones both sound so sincere. Sandinista is my favorite album by them. It's a weird mishmash of sounds, but it's true. If you want to understand the album, listen to Washington Bullets, Corner Soul, and Something about England. I realize London Calling's absence is controversial.

3 is The Black Parade. This album got me through my first semester in college. I could listen to it for hours with friends trying to decipher what on earth is going on. Every time I think I've got a good grasp on it- it slips away.

4 is Sweeney Todd. I had to include Sondheim somehow, and I think this is one of his best works. Johanna (quartet), Epiphany, and the final sequence are unskippable. Also,, "and though I'll think of you I guess until the day I die, I think I miss you less and less as every day goes by, Johanna" it's not sad, it's just... you sort of forget as you're watching that it's the system that made Sweeney, and he's not inherently a bad guy. "And you'd be beautiful and pale and look too much like her. If only angels could prevail, we'd be the way we were". Sweeney throughout the show doesn't try to make the audience like him. sometimes he explains his world view, but it's not in search of acceptance. This is the one time where he's letting his softer emotions out and we see the man that once was.

5. I don't even know where to begin. I'm talking about the 1973 version. Nothing more to say.

6 is representative of Willam Finn in general, but @nico-di-angelfish already put falsettos. I think I listen to 25th Annual more anyway, especially lately. I made the mistake a few years ago of only listening to the first few songs and dismissing it. Do not do that. Listen to the end- watch it live if you can because the context is sort of important. Not the context- but you need to know the characters so that you can let yourself feel. If you get to "the I love you song" and still don't get it... I don't know what else to tell you

spring awakening is my 7th pick. I love spring awakening but I fully realize that if I hadn't seen a production of it this year, it wouldn't be in the running. but I did, so it's here.

Phantom of the Opera is here because apparently Jesus Christ Superstar wasn't enough Lloyd Webber for me. I'm talking specifically about the original cast album with brightman and crawford. It's a beautiful album and playing it will always brighten (ha!) my day. Like,,, the clash is many things, but it's not beautiful. Sure, Dickinson might say beauty and truth are one- but the distinction is there because the clash is so true it's beautiful, while phantom is so beautiful it's true.

Hamilton is obligatory, because I owe Hamilton a lot. I hardly ever listen to it anymore but it belongs here.

I tag whoever wants to do this! Also I tag @bestoftimes-worstoflimes

@nico-di-angelfish did you know everything I would include?

[capitalradio]

can u believe the clash wrote banger after banger after banger for their FIRST album. they wrote songs like deny and what's my name and i'm so bored w the usa and white riot and garageland like godddddddddd they were so insane

[libertineangel]

First few tracks on the playlist tonight, fucking quality selection, wish they'd turn the volume up though 'cause this is too comfortable

[hoodienanami]

garageland from the clash's first album would be a perfect song if the guy with the harmonica would just shut the hell up

So I was tasked with reading a scientific (or any kinds of study actually) paper for a class, I was halfway through one talking about indie rock when I found one about the clash and garageland and decided to throw them all away and start over

Today's Song of the Day: Garageland- Bon Jovi (100,000,000 Bon Jovi Fans Can't Be Wrong- 2004)

[scary-ivy]

Most of the time when a rock band does a song that's like "fuck the critics" it's usually pretty lame because ultimately they're just punching down on a bunch of middle aged middle class people who are just doing their job of being contrarians. There's only two songs of this type I actually like. One is "Garageland" by the Clash, because the critic basically told them to kill themselves and they decided to roll with that premise and turn it into a defiant proud song about being a shitty poor punk band. The other song is the horribly titled "London Beckoned Songs About Money Written By Machines" by P!ATD, simply because the chorus is "well, we're just a wet dream for the web zine" and that's a really funny line.
