Best of 2003 (official lists thread)

[The_Sweetest_Thing]

Ed Harcourt - From Every Sphere
Damien Rice - O
Radiohead - HTTT
Daniel Lanois - Shine
Idlewild - The Remote Part

I'm tempted to put both Belle and Sebastian and REM on there, even though I didn't buy the albums. They're on my wish list.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

the fact that many people are putting rem's greatest hits cd on their lists tells ya somethin' about this year's musical selections...

 

[joyfulgirl]

I spent so much money on CDs this year and hardly any of them were new releases. The Year in Music sucked.

1. Radiohead - HTTT
2. Damien Rice - 0
3. Jeff Buckely - Live at Sin-e (extended reissue)
4. Dave Matthews - Some Devil (I will ask paxetaurora to delete your post if you heckle me )
5. It Still Moves - My Morning Jacket

That's all I can think of.

 

[Elvis Presley]
