This list may've been different if I had remembered to bring most my albums with me / had known I'd be here this long. I was in the habit of deleting albums from iTunes as soon as I got it on disc, so it didn't make it easy since I'd do that for an album I really liked as much as for a crap album. there was still one that deserved to be on here regardless of not getting a refresher on it. so, yes, take this list with a grain of salt. the top 5, I think, shall be the most accurate.
