Are you a music loser? How many of these albums do you have? If you’ve got twelve or more, you might be a Dido fan. (I have six, but if you count mp3’s of the bands mentioned, it goes much higher. Thus I’m probably a loser.)

Here’s my secret loser confession: I’m looking forward to the new Alanis album, and I hope to hear her new single when I turn on the radio. And don’t get my started on my weird longing for a Sheryl Crow Greatest Hits CD.
For the list: I have five, although all of them are pretty old (Tracy Chapman, Graceland, Madonna’s Bedtime stories, U2 Joshua Tree, Oasis). The boyfriend has a few more (Moby, Bob Marley, Eminem, Lauryn Hill). But it’s a little too Britpoppy to really be my pop music collection.
Only five. Thank the lord!
Ten. Pray for Mojo.
phew — only 5 — and one was a gift that i’ve never listened to, so does that count?
Ooh, I think I heard Alanis’s new single, Bill! It was on some TV show here. I liked it. (Confession: I’ve seen Alanis twice, once on her first American tour and once a couple years back when she toured with Tori Amos.) She’s a bit freaky in live performance.
I think we’re all safe, guys. The vibe I got from the article was that these are albums that middle-aged people who don’t know music buy, based purely on marketing and what they think they *should* be listening to. So I think we’re all good.
I’m screwed. I’ve got about 15. Eeek.
between J. and i there are only three albums in the house, but i did have two of them on tape once upon a time. as for Dido, i bought the CD and promptly resold it after listening to it once. not good.
I have 3 of them…
1. Coldplay
2. Alanis Morisette
3. OK Computer
But I sure as hell didn’t buy them for the reasons stated in the article. Good lord… I hope I’m not that hopeless musically when I’m in my 30’s.
I’m embarrassed about owning the Alanis Morisette album, but Parachutes and OK Computer are both very excellent. I like one Dido song, the one from the WB show, Roswell. “Here With Me,” I think it’s called.
(Oh, I own the entire Radiohead collection and can safely say that Kid A and Amnesiac make me euphorically happy — not scary in the least.)
Yeah. Uh 15 here, too. Oye.
