Top 10 Best Albums of 2005

No reason to even argue, this is definitely the best album of the year. If I had to explain why, I'd write a 10,000-word essay.

This album is so awesome. Everything Madonna does is different, and she's always innovating. This shouldn't be any different. It's a full non-stop album like a DJ set on a dance floor. Plus, it's a beautiful album.

Confessions on a Dance Floor (Madonna) and My December (Kelly Clarkson) were the perfect albums of 2005.

Who needs a DJ when you can just play this album? Once you play it in your own house or room, you can't stop dancing. Sadly, this is her last good album.

Beast and the Harlot, Bat Country, Seize the Day, Sidewinder, and Strength of the World - five of A7X's best songs in my opinion. Syn's best album. Masterpiece!

Bat Country, Beast and the Harlot, Seize the Day - definitely the best album of the year in any genre! Madonna and Lindsay Lohan?! For real?

Beast and the Harlot, Burn It Down, Sidewinder, Betrayed, and M.I.A. make this such a classic album.

I think this is Shakira's most serious and creative album to date. I love every single song here.

Amazing album. So much meaning in the songs - well-written yet extremely subliminal. I just love it.

This is one of the most underrated albums ever.

All the songs on Demon Days are amazing!

How is this even up for debate? This album was ranked the best album of 2005 by critics everywhere. Anyone who has listened to it will tell you that.

A million times better than anything on the list before it. A true masterpiece.

I don't know why X&Y is so far down on this list. It has many great songs and is underrated.

Best album ever. It should be in the top ten.

Best album of 2005 for sure! It was the bestselling album and won a Grammy! How can you not love it?

You may hate me, but I love this album. Lindsay caught my eye with her debut album Speak (2004), but she really surprised me with this one.

Following the phenomenal success of Covers Vol. 1, the Songbird has once again proved that she can make another platinum album.

"Everything she touches turns platinum."

Definitely much better than most of these.

An album with most of his greatest songs plus new tracks.

I'm actually kind of confused. Everybody has heard Ten Thousand Fists, Stricken, and Land of Confusion, and it's not even on here? City of Evil isn't a bad album, but most people can't even name a single A7X song, while Disturbed has eight No. 1 singles.

What a great album! 2005 was also the year YouTube was released.

Their debut. Not their best album, but it's the best album (next to A Beautiful Lie by 30 Seconds to Mars) of 2005. Paramore is an awesome band. They rock!

Remember the Name is the best song on this album.

Believe Me and Remember the Name are amazing.
