Top 50 - #37

	#37 Soundgarden Album(s) I Own: SuperUnknown I first heard about Soundgarden when I was in like 5th grade. Sems thats when the whole Black Hole Sun craze came out. And rightfully so, it is a great song. That along with Spoonman make this album one of the best among rock groups. I never understood either of them, although I really never took the time to either, but the way they sound and the way they are sang are great. They've since broken up as a group. The lead singer has launched a solo career. Haven't really heard any songs from him, although I'm sure they are ok. I remember this one kid in school who was in love with Soundgraden, like how some people are in love with Kurt Cobain today. It was weird. Because I never knew what Soundgarden was till I came across this CD. Great CD, great band, great music. I have to work today then I dunno what I'm doing. I'll probably be super-bored but thats ok I guess. I'm hungry... Song of the Moment: The sound of silence

	#38 White Zombie/Rob Zombie Album(s) I Own: Astro-Creep 2000, Hellbilly Deluxe I think everyone here knows who Rob Zombie is. If you don't you probably know White Zombie, or if you don't know them then by some chance you may know Powerman 5000, who's lead singer is Rob Zombie's brother. Or perhaps even the movie House of 1000 Corpses which was directed and written by Rob Zombie. Whichever way it has been, I'm sure you've heard his name before in some form or fashion. Rob Zombie is so prominent in the music and entertainment business. He's so unique in his creation of music, so unique in his creation of anything really. White Zombie as a band put out some great music, the most famous probably being More Human Than Human which is the sole purpose behind me buying Astro-Creep 2000. And then his solo career impressed me even more. I love his solo work. Hellbilly Deluxe was his first solo album and it kicked off great. With songs like Superbeast, Dragula and Living Dead Girl you really can't go wrong. The only thing about this album I didn't like was that he kept alot of his traits from White Zombie, meaning his weird interludes and whatnot. I love his music, I can do without his trademark interludes. This is the reason I loved his second album, The Sinister Urge. Full of great music. His music incorporates electric and rock and those are the two genre's I love most in music. He fits perfectly. He creates great music, he created a weird movie, and his art is absolutely wonderful. If I ever wanted to commision someone to do some comic work for me, it'd have to be him. Great wonderful stuff. Going to play basketball today. I'll be tired as shit pretty fast i rekon. Then I'm going out with my boy later. I finally got around to playing one of my new games, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. For an RPG and something somewhat based on D&D, it's actually really good. No wonder it won best XBOX game of the year. I totally forgot I can choose to be a Sith and so I did everything "good" so I'll have to start a new game later so I can be a bad guy :) Oh yeah, Blue Man Group kicks ass. However you won't see them on this list because I don't own any album of theirs though I would love too. They create unique stuff too. Very good, seen them live on Jay Leno 3 times. Song of the Moment: Blue Man Group - PVC IV

Top 50 - #39

	#39 Matchbox 20 Album(s) I Own: Yourself or Someone Like You Matchbox 20 is a hometown group for me. They started out in Orlando, FL and have made it big, huge actually. I own their first abum which contained alot of their first few singles, the same songs that made them famous. I think it's their best album so far, out of the three they put out I believe. Through tremendous success, they keep making great music. Something about them appeals to alotof people, even everyone. I don't think I've met someone who didn't like MB20. Great group, great music, great everything. I forgot to update this thing yesterday. Oh well. My boyfriend let me borrow his .hack//LENGEND OF THE TWIGHLIGHT manga so I'm kinda interested in reading them, whenever I get around to it. I have watched the first 5 episodes of the show and it's great, so I hope the manga is as good, even though it's a total different story line. I also promised my boyfriend the FAKE vol. 7 manga where apparently the two guys have sex... I have to go get that tomorrow So yay. Still haven't played any of the new games I bought... I'm too lazy to play video games.... thats bad. Song of the Moment: Jay Leno

Top 50 - #40

	#40 globe Album(s) I Own: globe Whee the first big mainstream Japanese group, and it's globe. globe is a Japanese pop group consisting of 3 members; one producer, the very famous T.K. (Tetsuya Komuro), one vocalist whos considered one of the best in the business Keiko, and one rapper whos half Japanese and half French, Marc Panther. globe is a pioneer in everything they do. T.K. is such a prominent producer that his influence in the group and what they do to other groups is so big. globe has been around for many years now and have released album after album that have sold millions. Recently they added a drummer, Yoshiki from X-Japan. A rare mix in music thats for sure, but it shows just how much influence T.K. has. globe is wonderful in every aspect of music they make. From pop, dance, to trance. It's quite impressive. They honestly should be ranked higher had I known them before the group move. But oh well. globe is still very great. The Pratice ends it run on ABC in two weeks. A damn shame such a great show is now over. I have free tickets to Universal Orlando. ANd I will be going on May 21st. This is the day that the new ride at Universal Studios, Revenge of the Mummy opens up. It will be so fucking great! I can't wait! Song of the Moment: Fear Factor

Top 50 - #41

	#41 Aerosmith Album(s) I Own: Nine Lives If you've never heard of Aerosmith you must have been living under a rock the last 30 years. Anyway, Aerosmith makes their way to the list at #41. You may think thats rather low for such a great group, and I would agree, but this is a personal taste issue. Aerosmith is a group I can listen to maybe 5 times a day at most. Most of their music sounds alot alike to me and it gets rather annoying after I hear it two times in a row, esspecially Jaded or that one from Armageddeon. Reagrdless, they certainly are a great group who deserve what they've gotten. They have something great, however they should stay away from Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake when playing a Superbowl Halftime show. Does anyone watch The Practice? This season they got rid of most of the cast and replaced them with new characters whom I ABSOLUTELY LOVE. Willaim Shatner is ont he show playing an absolutely great role. It's so funny to watch him. Also, has anyone watched Joan of Arcadia? Another great TV show on right now. Absolutely love the way it's written. it's witty, funny, and serious all at the same time. If you havent seen it, watch it. Friday nights, 8:00pm EST on CBS. You won't be disappointed in either show. Oh yeah, and people who are in love firearms or who believe they should envoke the 2nd amendment because they can and they should are fucking idiots. You and seevral others are the ones that take the greatness this country could be into what it is, far from great. Song of the Moment: The Practice

Top 50 - #42

	#42 Fuel Album(s) I Own: Sunburn Sunburn is an older album of Fuel's and I think their best one. They had several hits off of it, including Shimmer and Bittersweet. They recently released a new album which I haven't heard but I'm sure it's good. They have a certain sound to them which isn't quite rock, but not quite pop. Its a nice mix of the two and they do it in such a way where it is just really good lol. They are a great group, you should check 'em out. Song of the Moment: South Park: Bigger Longer and Uncut (like a penis)

Top 50 - #43

	#43 Eiffel 65 Album(s) I Own: Europop The first dance/electronic group to the list, oh which many will come. Eiffel 65 is an Italian trio, 2 of which are American, make any sense?... Anyway, you will certainly recognize this group from their hit single Blue (Da Ba Dee) which has been played 800 bajillion times. Europop was their debut album and Blue was their debut single and if you live in America, nothing has been heard of since. In fact so much, the only albumof theirs you can find here is Europop, believe me I looked. Their second album, Contact, was released about a year or so ago. Its just as good as Europop, if not a tad bit better. But has anyone heard of it here? Of course not. Anyway, this group is consistant in their design of music. Many of the songs carry the same beat, but they still have a bit of difference which makes them good. The lyrics to the music make no sense and seemingly have absolutely no plot (Blue is a perfect example of this, as is My Consol which is about the game consol Playstation) but are sung and altered electronically to be a sound and not a lyric which I absolutely love. Daft Punk does something similar alot, except DP tend to repeat alot while Eiffel doesn't quite do it as much. With 2 albums out, great songs, this group will certainly remain a big hit, but not here. They will stay in their respective nation (Italians absolutely love them) and in Europe where they will make millions and do shows for more people than Britney Spears. I get lots of money tomorrow! Woot on a stick. And MXC is such a great show. Did you know the ratings for MXC went up 310% from the first season to the second? Thats fucking amazing. And I was watching it before anyone knew what it was. Also, that jackass who posted about the Bi-Hydro oxide is about as dumb as you can get. This is Americas education system at work. Where a poor innocent idiot can screw up a whole joke by naming a chemical something that simply isn't a chemical name. Bi is only used as a prefix when refering to some object which contains 2 of something or a sexual prefrence, NOT chemistry. If you were any sort of intelligent being, chemistry uses the prefix of DI to count for 2 of something. Dihydrogen.... Dioxide.... and oxide cannot stand by itself, for it is essentially a suffix for oxygen.... hydroxide.... monoxide.... you stupid fuck. Learn chemistry before you try to fool everyone with your stupid lame ass joke, which by the way has been done several BILLION times by people who are so much more smarter than you.... Song of the Moment: MXC

Top 50 - #44

	#44 Two Album(s) I Own: Voyeurs Two is the band of Rob Halford, the frontman of Judas Priest, and produced by Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails. Its a combo that couldn't miss, or so people thought. You probably would recognise their song Stutter Kiss, which is their biggest hit. I believe Voyeurs is the only album put out by Two, and rightfully so because the project wasn't as good as anyone might have expected. It got ok reviews at best. Nothing on the album stands out so much to create a big hit. It sounds good on paper, but when put together, Reznor and Halford don't stack up to their popularity and talent. And I never said The Punisher was bad hunny, I said it wasn't as good as I expected.... It was an OK movie. Some parts were really good, some parts were horrible. I think it did good dealing with some of the original parts of the comic, but most comic movies lack something that just makes them not really great. Like I've said before, the only recent comic-movie that was really great is X-Men/X2. Daredevil, Spider-Man, Hulk, Hellboy, The Punisher.... They all weren't as good as I would have expected from them. Also Marvel is such a movie whore. All of their movies have been on almost every major movie production company. Oh well, more money for Marvel and Stan Lee. Oh, got my bowling money from the Orlando City Tournament. Our team placed 9th in the city. I was very happy. Now hopefully we can do that good in the Florida State Tournament. Song of the Moment: Queens of Comedy

Top 50 - #45

	#45 KoRn Album(s) I Own: Follow The Leader KoRn? You probbaky are thinking "why would TN like KoRn?"... ahh a valid question indeed. There is a reason KoRn ranks #45. They have a few good songs and they are somewhat of a pioneer of music. If it wasn't for KoRn, sometimes I wonder if the whole hardcore movement some years back would have even made it. I used to own their first album and A.D.I.D.A.S., but sold both and only kept Follow The Leader for some reason. Probably cause I like the cover art. Anyway, yeah. They have really great talent, but their genre of music just isn't quite to my liking. Anyway, my boyfriend wants me to type more about my life in hereinstead of just this list of top 50. So yeah, i saw The Punisher this weekend and it was not as good as I expected, even though I didn't expect that good. I think poor acting ability has ruined alot of the comic films, except Hellboy and Daredevil which were just badly written period. But what can you do. I'm more interested in other movies coming out soon. I'm also putting in a new HD in the next few days with a "legal" copy of Windows XP... oops did I say that? Screw you Bill Gates lol. I also got a new Flat Screen TV. And I have surround sound and my computer audio hooked up through the surround sound so all is cool in my room. I also scratched my car the other day! Fuckin pissed me off. However the polish covered most of it up except for the huge paint chip. It doesn't matter so much because the car needs to be re-painted anyway. Well thats it for me. Hope thats enough lol. Song of the Moment: Radio

Top 50 - #46

	#46 DJ Krush Album(s) I Own: Kakusei Ah, the first DJ to make the list and this one is Japanese. Probably one of the few Japanese artists to have some kind of market in the US. DJ Krush has worked with many hip hop artists in the US and many more artists in Japan, including Luna Sea. He primarily works with hip hop beats in his mixing, but has done more. He's not the best DJ, but certainly one of the better ones still mixing today. Song of the Moment: Radio
