On The Rolling Stones, In Order
@ComradePsmith Although "December's Children" isn't really a proper album, it should be ranked because it's the only one with "Blue Turns to Grey" on it.

On The Rolling Stones, In Order
People who rank "Satanic Majesties" at 19 are the same sort of people who don't want the Monkees in the rock and roll hall of fame.

On We're Getting Sadder (Or At Least Our Popular Music Is)
Wasn't "Can't Get You Out of my Head" considered somewhat innovative for its use of minor chords in a big pop song? I think I remember Paul Morley yammering on about something to that effect.
Anyway, I'll go with the "It's because of 'Can't Get You Out of my Head'" theory.

On Brooklyn Is Helping You Be Terrible
@ComradePsmith "But it’s more efficient to refer to Ian Svenonius’s 2006 book The Psychic Soviet, an overlooked work of genius which I fear is fully understood and appreciated only by its author—the former frontman of Nation of Ulysses and The Make-Up and singer for Chain and the Gang—and me."
AND ME.
