So, what were the best songs/albums/artists of 2006?

[GunBlade]

Best Albums:

That's all that I can remember.

O rly? Yeah, I liked it too.

 

[Lazlo Panaflex]

I'm more into trance and techno which are never played on radio stations, the majority of artists suck today but I did dig Chamillinaire's "Ridin' dirty" song.

I do like Jojo and Vanessa Hudgens, and I don't mean their songs.

....
That was a joke right...please tell me this is a joke.
(If it is, It's Hilarious).

Congrats! You're the first person to figure it out.

Easily the best album of the year and one of the best I've heard in a few years. The only downfall was that it go no airplay. Not to mentioned she released "Call On Me" first which was one of the worst songs on the album. If people only gave this one a chance...

 

[heypapajinx]

Gnarles Barkley- St. Elsewhere
Flaming Lips- At War With The Mystics
Feist- Open Season

[Halcohol]

This gets my vote for album of the year

Everyone keeps jumping the Thicke Wagon.

Give the first album a listen... it's actually pretty good.

You may be on to something because I had forgotten about that album. I think you just reminded a lot of people about that album!

 

[Kmack]

My fave album this year

Other faves include FutureSex/LoveSounds and B'Day.

I hope so..even though the sales were low this was honestly one of her best albums. Second only, IMHO, by the Janet album.

 

[Mr.Webs]

Best song would go to 'Crazy' by Gnarls Barkley, for sure.

But, for me, the choice for best album is even more obvious. American Recordings V: A Hundred Highways by Johnny Cash. No doubt in my mind.

 

[Gotendbz-2]

Best song - White & Nerdy

The best thing that can happen to you as a musician, is have your song spoofed by Weird Al. And he can rap better than all those gangsta's!

 

[ComicChick]

I'm currently in love with the Dreamgirls Album

the movie soundtrack or original cast recording?

 

[captain_jimbo]

I love the Superman Returns Soundtrack.

 

[Road Warrior]

I can't find the original cast recording one but when I do I'm getting it.

Best albums of the year:

The Haunted - The Dead Eye
Meshuggah - Nothing (remaster)

 

[black_dust]

AFI - DememberUnderground.

Squarepusher - Hello Everything

venetian snares - hospitality

Guttermouth - Shave the planet

The Action Desing - Ep 2006

 

[Tyrinus]

Gnarles Barkley- St. Elsewhere

They're one of the top 5 most overrated bands of the year.

 

[onejeremytogo]

Most definately. They have the one song on the album that's good (if not overplayed as well) and aside from that, the album is freakin' ******ed. "I am a transformer; I can transform" WTH????

 

[jimmy]

Maybe they saw the cartoon and wanted to write a song about it?

 

[Keymaker]

Maybe they saw the cartoon and wanted to write a song about it?

That isn't an excuse to write ******ed lyrics

 

[Archangel]

GoGo Gadget Gospel, Smiley Faces,Just a Thought, the Violent Femme's cover(Gone Daddy Gone), and Storm Coming are all really great songs and all better than Crazy. The album isn't terrible. Why am I drunk and arguing about music at 5 in the morning...
