The Vatican Releases Top 10 Album List

  Quote

Choral music and canticles make up its normal areas of interest but the Vatican has extended its musical tastes to issue a list of the top ten pop and rock albums of all time.

 

The Beatles, Pink Floyd and Oasis are among the British artists featured in the chart in the the Holy See's newspaper.

 

L'Osservatore Romano, said the 10 albums were the perfect listening material for anyone who found themselves marooned on a desert island.

The Vatican's Top Ten (In order of release):

1. Revolver by the Beatles

2. If I could Only Remember My Name by David Crosby

3. The Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd

4. Rumours by Fleetwood Mac

5. The Nightfly by Donald Fagen

6. Thriller by Michael Jackson

7. Graceland by Paul Simon

8. Achtung Baby by U2

9. (What's the story) Morning Glory by Oasis

10. Supernatural by Carlos Santana

that's a pretty decent top 10 with the exceptions of oasis and a late santana album

coincidentally i listened to the nightfly the other day, it's still awesome.

i got plenty of java and chesterfield kings.

pretty much the last half-decent u2 album there

lol, wtf? who decides this shit? and don't tell me the pope.

santana used to stand for something

where is come to daddy?!?

They choose the 90s pop culture zeitgiest U2 album over the 80s classic with Christian themes? Very strange.

Interesting and kinda decent list though.

I can just imagine the pope rocking out to some pink floyd, though.
