So a friend of mine (Thanks Greg) sent me the first Best of 2007 Music Lists - and while I was underimpressed - as I usually am with these things - the comments section had some funny thoughts...
First, one poster simply stated that the shittiness of the list was defined by this quote:
- A committee can make a decision that is dumber than any of its members." -- David Coblitz
Another funny commentator - "She truly makes music for people who listen to NPR but aren't smart enough to discuss anything they hear on there."
Now I disagree with the musician in question, so I'll leave that part off...
"writing about music is like dancing about architecture" - interesting quote
And lastly from this music list -
"rilo kiley's album touches on "everything from sex to post-relationship freedom?" Wow, a regular encyclopedia of topics, in between those two... " good stuff
So here is the problem with lists - everyone has an opinion. My general rule this year: I
ll try not to overly criticise any list as long as...
The list doesn't include Fall Out Boy. Quite possibly worst band/CD/music ever.

Okay DK,
Cool blog but I notice a serious deficiency in your pet peeves list--thought it was appropriate to leave this comment in your "problem with lists" entry.
You forgot to have gnomes on your list! :-)
Great start on the Blog, well done
