Just remember, you asked for it.

Duran Duran - Duran Duran, Rio, Seventh Tiger, Arena
Queen - Best of, Princes of the Universe
Zepplin - too many to name
Pink Floyd - The Wall (personal reasons here, too)
John Williams - nearly every soundtrack he has ever done
Horner - more soundtracks
Bernstein - Mahler 5th
Atlanta Symphony - Copeland collection
Mozart - I have a huge collection
Gershwin - Piano Concerto in F, Rhapsody in Blue, An American in Paris
Tan Dun - Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon soundtrack
Megumi Hayashibara (and whoever wrote the music) - Slayers soundtracks
Canadian Brass - anything and everything
I have lots of movie/tv soundtracks and anime soundtracks. I also own a lot of classical music. And I have my classic rock collection.

Kelly, I LOVE the fact that you started your list with Duran Duran. And I think I have about 90% of the CDs you listed, so I certainly won't be laughing at you... (read: I own some Duran Duran too) We ladies have to stick together with our cutey boy groups. So when I admit to having every CD the Backstreet Boys have ever released anywhere in the world.....

hhahahahaa--JUST KIDDING!!!

Hey, anyone ever heard of G Love and Special Sauce?

I was one of the biggest Duran Duran fans in the 80's. However, our band trip my sophmore year happened to be when they came in concert. I have always regretted that to an extent. I did get lots of t-shirts and pics from my friends who got to go.

Also, another group I forgot.

Shonen Knife.

Their song "Milk and Cereal" makes me happy no matter what kind of day I'm having. If you haven't heard it, you should hook yourself up. It's random and groovy and makes me smile.

What's so funny/embarrasing about any of that?

I don't have that many albums...but off the top of my head:

AC/DC: Back in Black and Razor's Edge
Guns n' Roses: Use Your Illusion II
Weird Al Yankovic: Bad Hair Day

My brother and sister have a lot more albums. In fact, Kat probably has every Led Zeppelin album ever released.

I have all the albums too. I still like the first album the best, and 'A Mad Russian's Christmas' is still my favourite...although there are a couple from the Beethoven that are rather gorgeous/kickass too. How awesome are they live?

Very. The guitarist from Megadeth (brain freeze, can't remember name)and his wife were performing (she plays keyboard), and there were three people from Savatage, plus an older rocker who I can't recall. They did all of the first album plus some stuff from "Beethoven's Last Night," including having three guitarists doing the main lick from "Flight of the Bumblebee" at the same time. Best concert I've ever been to, made Mannheim Steamroller look bad.

DUDE!!! I can't believe I forgot to mention The Bloodhound Gang's "One Fierce Beer Coaster". That record reached legendary status in my high school years.
