Thriller

Getz/Gilberto

This is the one

I'm sure a certain individual will champion River: The Joni Letters though

lol, looking at this niggers have actually won quite a few times, why are they complaining, niggers always complain

Morning Phase is pretty good, though you wouldn't be wrong if you said it was just a safer Sea Change

1989

The Suburbs

>poltard complains about complaining.

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

falling into you

Songs in the Key of Life

>steely dan wins album of the year in 2001
>beating radioheads kid A

these

Rumours, fuck you.

between this Graceland or Innervisions

Grammy's love their dadrock. Robert Plant beat In Rainbows and Dylan beat OKC

One of these
Fuck, can you imagine something like Sgt. Pepper's winning today?

Nobody could release such a groundbreaking album today.

>what is Beyonce - Lemonade

Looking at this list, the Grammy's have always been shit. There's many times they give a shitty forgotten album an award over a historically great one.

literal garbage

>can you imagine the most popular album of the year winning today?
I don't have to imagine, it literally happened today.

the answer is obvious. U2 - The Joshua Tree

It could have happened if they didn't snub Dark Fantasy

thats what im saying, but then you have niggers whining about muh white peepls stealing muh grammies.

THEY LITERALLY GAVE STEELY DAN THE ALBUM OF THE YEAR IN 2001 OVER KID A

HOW!?!

HOW SWAY?!!!

It's simple, blacks don't make pop music anymore, now they just make "urban" music which isn't nearly as popular. The Grammys always go to the more recognizable albums that the average person has actually listened to, so blacks don't win anymore.

>literal garbage
pretty sure its an literally an album not garbage

let's be honest here Lemonade was better than 25

Garbage is literally anything that is worthless.
Expired food, used packaging, used tissue paper, Beyonce albums, your post, etc.

This is the right answer

It's worth millions in sales. So clearly not garbage

I like The Suburbs. I don't really know what other albums came out in 2011, but I would say it's easily the best album to win in the last 20 years.

Anyone with ears can hear that

thats true, black peoples music has been whittled down to like 95% rap and 5% r&b.

If a guy like prince came out in this age he would be some hipster shit only like emaciated white hipsters listened to

>music
>sales

Bob Newhart - The Button-Down Mind of Bob Newhart

the most patrician thing of all is to ignore music entirely and give the biggest award to a comedy album

After looking at the list I can say conclusively that the correct answer is Bridge Over Troubled Water.

Morning Phase

tpab

that lost

Grimes, art angels

O Brother Where Art Thou? soundtrack

Not the biggest fan of arcade album but I absolutely loved this album by them

That's best rap, not album of the year idiot.

Get out pleb

Getz/Gilberto personally but I can see an argument for the Hancock one or something like Graceland or Rumours.

Whats the point of these awayds really though. I refuse to believe that anyone looks at the album of the year most years and goes

>yes, this is clearly the best album to come out this year

B8

Is that the only soundtrack to ever win it?

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart Club Band
Favourite Grammy is Random Access Memories but Sgt. Pepper changed how people viewed The Beatles
They went from a popular as fuck band to the guys changing the scene

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill
Graceland
Getz/Gilberto

One of those. I've also never heard pic related, but I find JFK impressions much funnier than they actually are, so I just have to include it.

>Favourite Grammy is Random Access Memories
kill yourself

Sgt. Pepper wasn't the most popular album of '67.

...

Can you imagine the second most popular album of the year winning today?

>Beyonce
>music

What was?

Morning Phase won and it debuted at #3 and probably wasn't even a top 10 album overall that year.

Getz/Gilberto
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
Bridge over Troubled Water
Innervisions
Songs in the Key of Life
Rumours
Thriller
Graceland
The Joshua Tree
The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

The only sensible choices.
Everything else is a joke.

This

God-tier album

Is Thriller really patrician?

>Lionel Ritchie wins over Purple Rain

I think that one bugs me the most. Ritchie is literally a nobody now, no one listens to him anymore.

You forgot O Brother Where Art Thou and Come Away With Me

More of the Monkees was the best-seller that year

I don't understand why The Monkees were so popular, they just seem like poor man's Beatles.

wtf are you doing here

That is what people wanted, all the exciting newness of the Beatles but with the edge shorn off. Popular music, meaning the stuff that is really mainstream, is usually about 10 years behind the curve of the supposed pop of the era. Just look at the Grammys in the 60s, Streisand, Sinatra and other old fossils while the musical landscape was changing completely.

>nobody has mentioned No Jacket Required

You shouldn't even be asking, you faggot.
