If you had one album to listen to for the rest of your life, what would it be?

I think the album is perfect from top to bottom. You have great elements of all music in every song. Influences from soul and rock music are dominant in the album. I love the feel good songs like PYT and Wanna Be Starting Something. There's also songs like Human Nature and The Girl Is Mine that are calm and relaxing but very thought provoking as well. I also LOVE Beat It, one of the most bad ass guitar solos as well. Songs like Billie Jean and Thriller just speak for themselves and the impact they had in music at that time is remarkable. Billie Jean still has one of the greatest baselines I've ever heard.

"In Rainbows" by Radiohead

Not my favorite Radiohead album, but still one of my favorite albums and one id be fine listening to forever.

"Hummingbird" by local natives and "Watching Movies With the Sound Off" by Mac Miller are also one that came to mind.

Wow, I was just listening to this album the other day. Literally every song is amazing. You know what I really LOVE about that album? The song Pyramids, I get goosebumps because of the concept of the song. The first part of the song is him comparing this girl he likes to Cleopatra and makes a lot of references to Ancient Egypt and you assume it's him just professing his love but then the second half of the song reveals that his referring to a stripper whose name is Cleopatra and the strip club she works at is called The Pyramids. It may be one of the best songs ever written.

I am super hooked on a band called MUCC right now and as much as I like pretty much all their songs I have heard I don't know how long it will last. I'd probably have to go with Americana by The Offspring since I still enjoy every song on there after all the years.

I think my favorite album of all time is "Give Up" by The Postal Service. It's just sublime. I guess if I had only one, it'd have to be this one.

Although there are a couple of Explosions in the Sky albums that I'd have to strongly consider as well.

It is a good album, yeah. Plus, it's the GOAT album to turn on when a girl is round.

The 2013 Grammy nominees CD. Has a great mix and even a few song I can't stand. If I only have 22 songs EVER I want to be able to have at least one where I can say "This song fucking sucks!"

Great song, one of my favourites on the album. Thinking Bout You and Sweet Life are also my favourites.

Is that the one with the district sleeps alone tonight on it?

Top song that.

I'd go with Angel Dust by Faith No More.

Yes! That's one of my favorite songs.

Great record. Reminds me of high school and being a teenager in general. Very nostalgic. The District Sleeps Alone Tonight is one of the best songs ever.

Mine would easily be Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys.
