We asked you, the Billboard.com readers, what your favorite album of 2008 was, and more than 16,000 of you heeded the call. Here are ten albums that snagged the most votes, a list that ranges from music by three mega-selling divas; rock acts old and new; finalists from another season of "American Idol"; plus a few surprises! 1. Britney Spears, "Circus" 2. David Archuleta, "David Archuleta" 3. David Cook, "David Cook" 4. Mariah Carey, "E=MC2" 5. Elisa, "Dancing" 6. Guns N' Roses, "Chinese Democracy" 7. Beyonce, "I Am... Sasha Fierce" 8. Panic At The Disco, "Pretty. Odd." 9. RBD, "Best of RBD" 10.

All the albums above GN'R are aimed at completely different audiences.... The American Idol watching People magazine reading music listeners.... /jarmo Title: Re: Billboard Readers' Poll: 10 Best Albums Post by: mrlee on December 23, 2008, 08:08:45 PM Britney Spears at number 1?
Is the world really that ass sucking? Title: Re: Billboard Readers' Poll: 10 Best Albums Post by: Dr. Blutarsky on December 24, 2008, 12:14:40 AM ^ Most people nowadays see music as solely entertainment and not as an art form unfortunately.
Title: Re: Billboard Readers' Poll: 10 Best Albums Post by: lynn1961 on December 24, 2008, 01:10:43 AM Britney Spears at number 1? Is the world really that ass sucking? It seems to be the way of the music world as we know it, lately. CD is the only album that deserved to be in there. Title: Re: Billboard Readers' Poll: 10 Best Albums Post by: GNR4L on December 24, 2008, 01:13:55 AM seems more like a popularity contest then best albums.
Title: Re: Billboard Readers' Poll: 10 Best Albums Post by: ecwfan on December 24, 2008, 01:17:11 AM Look at that list though. Its like Chinese Democracy has cracked thru a lot of teenage people. We really have to be astounded by this considering Metallica isn't there and that list is basically aimed at the teenage crowd .
Title: Re: Billboard Readers' Poll: 10 Best Albums Post by: ppbebe on December 24, 2008, 10:50:26 AM guess people in the wide age group appreciate this 'average good' album far better than metallicas, acdcs or whatever a few posters named. ;D
Title: Re: Billboard Readers' Poll: 10 Best Albums Post by: neon2002 on December 24, 2008, 11:05:08 AM Britney Spears at number 1? Is the world really that ass sucking? Well in the USA that's what's popular right now... Title: Re: Billboard Readers' Poll: 10 Best Albums Post by: Bucketofguns on December 24, 2008, 11:10:00 AM that is such horrible company. MGMT had the second best album of the year, after CD ofcourse
Title: Re: Billboard Readers' Poll: 10 Best Albums Post by: ppbebe on December 24, 2008, 11:13:04 AM right now? I hear Madonna was popular in the 80s/90s like britney now.
Title: Re: Billboard Readers' Poll: 10 Best Albums Post by: Alfie Bones on December 24, 2008, 12:23:59 PM I'm surprised Panic at the Disco made the top ten. I didn't know there were that many homo/metro-sexuals to make that happen.
At least Kanye didn't make it. Title: Re: Billboard Readers' Poll: 10 Best Albums Post by: Bitch Slap Rappin on December 24, 2008, 12:27:51 PM The main reason why Britney is up there at number one is because she's been in the public tabloids the last three years. You know all the drama that went on with her....shaving her hair.....and so on. I'm sure there is not one good song on her new cd. :rofl:

You see, none of the albums before GN'R are rock or by a band..... ;D So, in other words, GN'R beat both Metallica and AC/DC..... And all the other bands who released albums in 2008. /jarmo Title: Re: Billboard Readers' Poll: 10 Best Albums Post by: Layne Staley's Sunglasses on December 24, 2008, 09:14:10 PM The main reason why Britney is up there at number one is because she's been in the public tabloids the last three years.
