ten albums to be stranded on a desert island with

OK here's a challenge for you. You are stranded on a desert island with a solar powered cd player. Which 10 albums out of your collection would you like to be your desert island discs ?

these are mine. It was quite hard to wittle it down to 10. I decided not to chose any of my "hits" or "now thats what I call music " compilations cause I ususally get bored of listening to the latest chart releases after a while.

The best of R.E.M.

Led Zepplin - the early days

The very best of the moody blues

A rush of blood to the head- coldplay

Bowie- the ultimate collection

Duran Duran greatest hits

The Beatles blue album 1967-1970

Escapology- Robbie Williams

Echoes- the best of pink floyd

Queen-greatest hits I

I don't know if I'm showing my age a bit with some of my choices.mind you some of them are before my time anyway, I just grew up with my parents playing them.

maybe if we were all on the same island it wouldn't be so bad.

See other stuff that people list that I wish I could've taken lol

311, VNV Nation, Manson, etc

okay... I'll play, this is going to be hard for me though, I love so much music, way too many good one's to choose from.... but here it goes

no order...

Rolling Stones - Forty Licks

Prince - The Hits I II III

U-2 - Greatest Hits

Credence Clearwater Revival - Chronicle II

Electric Light Orchestra - Afterglow

Billy Joel - The Essential Collection

Journey - Greatest Hits

Saturday Night Fever - Soundtrack

AC / DC - Back In Black

Fleetwood Mac - Greatest Hits

I've actually heard of most of yours elevatedone . I was agonising over whether to have rolling stones forty licks or not. It just missed out narrowly to Queen.

I know that age will play a part in peoples taste in music but I expect that there will be quite a difference depending on which side of the pond you come from. There are a lot of american groups that I've not heard of and a lot of british groups that never managed to break america.

Hmmm... This ia tough one!
People have already mentioned most of my first choices, lol.

So I'll think of another favourite 10 - shouldn't be too hard, as I have loads of favourites!

In no particular order:

Def Leppard - Hysteria
Def Leppard - High N Dry
AFI - Sing The Sorrow
NickelBack - The Long Road
Alice Cooper - Trash
Metallica - Metallica
Iron Maiden - Best Of The Beast
Guns N Roses - Appetite For Destruction
AC/DC - Highway To Hell
The Essential Ozzy Osbourne

Pheew... But I don't think I could take *just* 10.

1. Cocteau Twins - Victorialand
2. Beatles - White Album
3. Dead Can Dance - A Passage in Time
4. The Verve - A Storm in Heaven
5. Red House Painters - Down Colorful Hill
6. Heidi Berry - Love
7. Radio Head - The Bends
8. Eminem - The Eminem Show
9. Quicksand - Slip
10. House of Love- A spy in the.....

Damn that was hard

1. the complete recordings of robert johnson
2. fun house by the stooges
3. a love supreme by coltrane
4. the only way to know for sure by rollins band
5. delta blues and spirituals by son house
and the rest would be hendrix albums

Hey, I didn't knew some other people here listenned to 311

But there's no way you're getting me to pick 10 CDs. As Lyseric said, it require some serious thinking, and honnestly, it would probably take me all night to choose lol..

No Particular Order

1. Linkin Park-Hybrid Theory
   
2. Linkin Park-Meteora
   
3. Linkin Park-Reanimation

10. 3 Doors Down-Away From the Sun
    

well I did say it was a challenge and it proved harder for me than I imagined it would.

no offense pantha I'm just really not in the mood of doing such a tough thought-job right now...or anytime lol!

I love music too much too only choose 10 CDS! I'd rather have none than have only 10 I think...

This way I could sing! Lol.,...and slowly turn crazy... and end up killing my sef cuz I'm a bad singer...

ill just make sure to get stranded with my cd wallet and head set.
