    Agreed...

    And I refuse to rank the albums simply because I love them all for different reasons...
    Is it so wrong to think that love can keep us safe?

    Just for no reason at all, I decided to compare each album to various sex acts:

    Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness (anal sex-giving)
    Siamese Dream (vaginal sex)
    Zeitgeist (blowjob)
    Gish (hand job)
    Adore (jerk off)
    Pisces Iscariot (abstinence)
    Machina (anal sex-taking it)

    I'll just ditto your list.

    FYI - if your list ain't got Siamese Dream at the top, you are a moron...or deaf.

    adore's much underrated. every track's a winner and it's consistent as a whole too. i think it might even top mellon collie for me.

    1. mellon collie (by far)
    2. siamese dream
    3. zigiest (i like it, united states is great, and there are a few other good songs here as well, the drumming is some of the best you will hear, especially when you realise he did it to tape without a click track... just wish billy had got his new band to sing and play some of the other instruments...)
    4. Gish
    5. adore

    thats all i have atm but mellon collie is a gem.
