Actually the name of that album is 'Songs About Jane', and although many people thought it came out in 2003, it actually did go out in late 2002.

Being Maroon 5 an unknown indie band, it took them a while to be able to hit the mainstream.

Well, since you've put such a large list it's hard to come up with more. Gwen Stefani's new single is her worst yet, though her album might be good, I dont know. Franz Ferdinads Take Me Out is a great song and album...probably Maroon 5 or Green Day.

The new Gwen Stefani album might be doing better if they weren't releasing the worst of the album as singles. 'What You Waiting For' and 'Rich Girl' are just atrocious, so it wouldn't surprise me if they picked 'Harajuku Girls' as the next single.

The album has become nothing but a promo for her new fashion line, and seriously we have enough of that crap with people like P.Diddy, Celine Dion, Hillary Duff, and J.Lo.
It just makes music sound blatant and ignorant, because it just simply puts the music to a second view, and it puts image first.

Can't wait for the next 'No Doubt' album.

Blah, blah, blah.

Maroon 5, Keane, and Scissor Sisters

"I dont know any of the other new GS songs but What you waiting for? is TERRIBLE!"

- Yeah, I understood that quite clearly when you said it the first time. Oh, and the second and third.

'On Fire' is not a brand new studio album,
it's a live album from a 1982 performance.

If there's anything Queen related to include that might probably be the songs 'Invincible Hope' or 'The Call'. Both great. Although they are more 2003 than 2004.

well...im still waiting for the newest one-bad-hit-band-thats-not-famous-yet album... anyways... i love maroon 5 :D

2004 is almost over, and sure it was full of a lot of crappy music. Jessica Simpson and Hillary Duff made their sisters stars, while Lindsay Lohan prooved to be a worse singer than an actress.

Yet still 2004 brought some good music, believe it or not. At least kinda better than what we've seen in previous years.

10. ....

can't think of anything else at the moment...

Again a year that didn't offer much in terms of good music me thinks...

But looking at my singles list, I seem to be getting more and more into hip hop and r'n b....
I should start thinking about that...

Did Scott look hot? YES. Did he look healthy? You're right, he hasn't in years, but I find his look hot. So... yes. He looked healthy. :D

franz ferdinand is getting all these votes. i bought the cd b/c i liked take me out, played it once & never again.

Franz Ferdinand is one of the albums of the year without doubt, absolutely brilliant. Michael is my favourite on the album, but pretty much all of it is great, and even better live.

Hey Janet and Miss James (not used to that name, I wrote Alli about four times first). Yeah, i'm keeping real good thanks. Hope the same apply's to you guys, well gals!

Wow... eggy... There's a name I haven't seen here in QUITE some time. :|
