The Lion King was the best selling album that year.

So it wins.

Music fans have spoken. Vitalogy is the 95th best album of 1994.

I can still sing 90% of it by heart. I get a little lost in the little conversation breakdown.

I often recite the dialogue before "Can You Feel The Love Tonight."

I mean, I love it as much as anything, and it's a top 20 album for me but it isn't on the same level as say OK Computer, Revolver or Daydream Nation (or, for that matter Pet Sounds, which has never been a favorite of mine but is frequently cited as one of the greatest albums ever made).
That is correct. It is a better album than those records, and as such is not on their level.
Quoted for posterity. :lol:

Quoting something in the same thread it just appeared, about 20 posts after its debut appearance, definitely help preserve it.

I also always fuck up quid pro quo, for some reason, on this song. I sound like Austin Powers or something.

But man is it euphoric when you get to belting out YOU WON'T GET A SNIFF WITHOUT ME

This thread has taught me that according to Pearl Jam fans, pretty much ever "great" album ever made was made by white dudes with guitars.
