Dearest John,

In response to your communication of Monday, April the Second, 2007 regarding world wide atrocities and such:

World-wide wtfs.

Stg pepper at 1 and pet sounds at NINE?

Eek nevermind at 10. SANTANA? Iono man…. Nevermind does not beat Abbey Road, EVER.

SHANIA TWAIN??????????????????????????????????????????????????

???????????????????????

!!!!
??????????????????

w.t.f. mates. Shania twain beats the wall. In what circle of hell?

There are only the typical classics mixed in with the new trendy groups… Nothing interesting here. No surprises. This is pretty much not real good. Dangit and I HAVE that jewel album. It is NOT that good. HYBRID THEORY?!??!????

This is ruining my day.

Any world where ANY creed album beats out the clash “London Calling” is not worth living in.

THE SOUNDTRACK TO TITANIC????????????????????????????????

Yeah… that SURELY BEATS OK COMPUTER.. number 111. The best album of the 1990s.

Definitive. The adjective form of the verb to define. IN WHAT WAY DID THE SOUNDTRACK TO TOP GUN DEFINE ROCK AND ROLL? TELL ME THAT!!!!

Yeah. And John Lennon’s Imagine IS just a piece of crap… whatever. Oooh but dave Brubeck! A hidden gem! Aside from that, this list is abysmal. John…. AVRIL LAVIGNE. May god have mercy on the rock and roll hall of fame.

Oh dear lord. This list is finally over. Wow. Wowowowowoowwoww….. I have SERIOUS misgivings about the integrity of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame now. I’m going to go eat a bowl of lucky charms, watch an entire evening’s worth of the CW, and cry myself to sleep now. Thanks, John.
