if you were to comprise a Top 10 list of your favorite Debuts albums of all time....what would it consist of? (you can have 11...only if Madonna is one of them!!)

loved him and several hit songs: Baby Come To Me (Duet w/ Patti Austin), Somewhere Out There (Duet w/ Linda Ronstadt), Yah Mo B There (Duet w/ Michael McDonald), I Don't Have The Heart, Just Once, One Hundred Ways, What About Me (w/ Kenny Rogers & Kim Carnes), How Do You Keep The Music Playing (Duet w/ Patti Austin), solo spot in We Are The World https://www.aol.com/article/entertainment/2019/01/29/grammy-winning-soul-legend-james-ingram-dead-at-age-66/23656416/

if anyone like them as I did (enjoyed their variety show in the 70s as well) https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/8492074/daryl-dragon-dead-captain-and-tennille

true that...I want to own the recordings...not rent I do use ITunes previews a lot though to sample an album to see if I like it

This is just total BS....the chart systems sucks! Drake Earns 70th Top 40 Hit on Billboard Hot 100, Thanks to Migos' 'Walk It’ The collaboration also marks his 160th total entry on the Hot 100. 160 Hot 100 hits...WTF

Girl In Trouble (Is A Temporary Thing) - Romeo Void Cruel Summer - Bananarama Pop Musik - M Safety Dance - Men Without Hats Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This) - Eurythmics Whip It - Devo My Sharona - The Knack Relax - Frankie Goes To Hollywood Don't You Want Me - Human League Our House - Madness

Maybe a favorite Top 10 ABBA songs should be in order.... Dancing Queen / Take A Chance On Me / The Winner Takes It All / Fernando / SOS/ Knowing Me, Knowing You / The Name Of The Game / Mama Mia / Super Trouper / Honey Honey

Lara Fabian - Adagio

Like Madonna....I’ve been there with ABBA from the very beginning (Waterloo in the US) albeit a decade earlier (1974) love all their singles...but it was a short run in hindsight....about 7/8 years in US, back when in the 70s, artists released maybe 2 or 3 singles from from each album

okay now it can be a bit harder...some second albums were not up to the standard set from the debut...but some actually surpassed the debut...so what would be your Top 10 Sophomore albums (of coarse 11 if you add Like A Virgin to the list!) Like A Virgin / Madonna Defamation Of Strickland Banks / Plan B Colour By Numbers / Culture Club Look Sharp! / Roxette Make It Big / Wham! Whitney / Whitney Houston Real Love / Lisa Stansfield Silk & Steel / Five Star Affirmation / Savage Garden Cupid & Psyche '85 / Scritti Politti Nightwalkin' / Alisha

This would be my next batch..... Forever Your Girl - Paula Abdul Tell It To My Heart - Taylor Dayne Exposure - Exposé Jody Watley - Jody Watley Whitney Houston - Whitney Houston Another Night - Real McCoy Move To This - Cathy Dennis Martika - Martika Catch Me I’m Falling - Pretty Poison Wilson Phillips - Wilson Phillips

I guess it’s my turn....(no order except Madonna is #1) Madonna / Madonna Affection / Lisa Stansfield Faith (Solo Debut) / George Michael Mariah Carey / Mariah Carey Back To Bedlam / James Blunt Luxury Of Life / Five Star Great Expectations / Tasmin Archer Savage Garden / Savage Garden The Sign / Ace Of Base Galore / Dragonette Days Are Gone / Haim

In my option...a cd is at least something to show for my money spent...liner notes, cover etc...as opposed to just something downloaded from the air

unfortunately no...I do have about 50 or so...mostly Sony released...I did manage to get TIC, ROL & Music though use to travel to Disney World a lot and had to shop at the Virgin Store....they had everything

Why not try minidiscs again...they are even more compact than a cassette and you can record on them...and are like a cd quality wise

Don’t know if they’ll actually take into account men who have been sexually harassed, assaulted etc....I highly doubt it.

There aren’t any like these jammin’ bands/groups anymore: Kool & The Gang, The Pointer Sisters, Midnight Star, Five Star, Atlantic Starr, Shalamar, Lakeside, The Bar-Kays, The Whispers...and the list goes on!

yes...loved them a lot.....Silk & Steel of coarse my favorite, but right up there with their debut Luxury Of Life...have few of their compilations, along with most of the studio albums....Shine was so underrated...and oh how I love Denise....also have her solo album Imprint!

I guess you’re just gonna have to trust me...I’ve never been to a Karaoke place where they videotaped the performances...I did have friends that wanted me to try out for AI when it came out, but I was already pushing 40,

I’ve done Karaoke many times back in the day...I’ve won 1st place several times...I sang mostly power ballads...George Michael, Celine, Whitney

Yes...it was something...went all the time...practically lived in the clubs! Started out at teen clubs when I was 15/16...1978/79...Disco was hot....then into the 80s and adult clubs...soon along came an unknown in 1982!

then boiled his head for dinner with vegetables and gravy This is old news...just wondering if any insight on this woman... 2 years ago planned on making movie about her...did they? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3452277/Hollywood-movie-Australia-s-female-cannibal-Katherine-Knight-cooked-boyfriend-s-head-gravy.html

She dethroned WATW with CFY after a three week stall at #2

Assuming Madonna is your favorite artist ever....if she had never existed, what singer/band would be next in line to take the crown. I would choose Donna Summer...in fact she was my number 1 artist from ‘75 to ‘83 until M moved onto the block and snatched the top spot....But Donna has remained a close 2nd ever since!
