REM - Monster

mfpole · « **Reply #1 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 16:24 »

Thriller, duh.

De_El · « **Reply #2 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 16:30 »

That'd probably be Nevermind - Nirvana

I find it more interesting than the penis-measuring contest in the "rarest album" thread.

Seriously.

If you actually have an answer other than this you've fucked up completely somewhere.

Jackie Blue · « **Reply #5 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 17:08 »

Man, I bought Thriller on cassette when it came out! It was actually the first album I bought in my life.

The second was the Ghostbusters soundtrack.

Oh fuck, now I'm turning THIS thread into a penis-measuring contest.

Katherine · « **Reply #6 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 17:14 »

I own REM ~ Monster as well but I have to wonder if my Fall Out Boy CDs are ... more least rare? I have no idea what I am trying to say here other than admitting that I like Fall Out Boy.

Jackie Blue · « **Reply #7 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 17:22 »

I think that more copies of Monster were printed than of any Fall Out Boy CD.

My main point/sort-of joke though was in reference to the fact that Monster is the number one "most sold to used CD stores" CD of all time.

Katherine · « **Reply #8 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 17:38 »

I think I actually bought Monster used...

Jackie Blue · « **Reply #9 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 17:45 »

So many people have sold their copies of Monster that, if you look it up on Amazon, you get this:

645 used & new available from $0.01.

That's right. It's a CD so hard to get rid of that they're willing to sell it for postage and handling costs.

Tom · « **Reply #10 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 18:33 »

Wolfmother - Wolfmother

qiZzer · « **Reply #11 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 18:37 »

Mine would either be
Nirvana-Nirvana
Bob Dylan's Greatest hits
or
The killers- Hot Fuss

Tom · « **Reply #12 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 18:40 »

I forgot that i also own Sam's Town - The Killers and X&Y- Coldplay.

The Viz · « **Reply #13 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 18:44 »

I'd say Rush's 2112 probably...I only actually own like 20-30-ish CDs, most of the more common ones I just borrowed from my Dad or friends.

KvP · « **Reply #14 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 19:20 »

Probably The Joshua Tree.

Joseph · « **Reply #15 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 19:35 »

I own 200 copies of Thriller.

Can the other thread die now?

E. Spaceman · « **Reply #16 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 19:48 »

My brother owns a copy of The Eagles' Greatest Hits, I think that is the only thing that has sold more than Thriller?

Thriller is totally badass though.

Ernest · « **Reply #17 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 21:24 »

Incubus- A Crow Left of the Murder

eeegh

Wayfaring Stranger · « **Reply #18 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 22:04 »

Maybe Weezer's blue album? Or...probably any Beatles album.

Tom · « **Reply #19 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 22:06 »

In terms of Beatles i have Please Please Me and Help.

Apparently it's two million copies ahead of Thriller in America.

Another reason to disband the United States. The great experiment is over, folks. It clearly failed.

Tom · « **Reply #21 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 22:12 »

I blame blatant/latent racism the people who brought over 2 million copies of The Eagle's Greatest hits collectively are bigots.

EDIT: My mum owns a copy of Thriller on vinyl.

TheFuriousWombat · « **Reply #22 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 22:17 »

I'm in the Beatles boat. I'm going to have to go with my copy of "Abbey Road" I guess. Although any of them would work. "Blood on the Tracks" is also up there.

Caspian · « **Reply #23 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 22:24 »

This would easily be Metallica's Black Album.

I do not own a copy of Thriller and neither does anyone I know

E. Spaceman · « **Reply #24 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 22:48 »

Everybody that you know has a shit taste.

C Patrick Carolan · « **Reply #25 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 22:55 »

Probably Pink Floyd's The Wall or some such. Or some Stones record... I have Beggars Banquet and Exile on LP.

I'd love to wallpaper an entire bathroom with covers from the Thriller LP... that'd be so rad.

Johnny C · « **Reply #26 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 23:08 »

i refuse to let michael jackson watch me poo

Tom · « **Reply #27 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 23:10 »

That'd freak a lot of people at my old primary school.

C Patrick Carolan · « **Reply #28 on:** 03 Dec 2007, 23:14 »

Maybe just one, directly across from the toilet? C'mon... it'd be a conversation stimulator!

Hell, put one inside the medicine cabinet. You'd always know which of your guests was poking around in there when they went in to use the can.

I actually own Thriller on vinyl.

hardcore.

I find it hard to believe that the beatles haven't sold more

el_loco_avs · « **Reply #31 on:** 04 Dec 2007, 02:45 »

Thriller: over 100million copies sold worldwide apparantly.

Bad : over 40 million

Jagged Little Pill, Sergeant Peppers, Brothers In Arms, LedZep IV, Dangerous, The Wall : over 30 million.

I'm gonna stop here.

Fugazi - Repeater is actually the only album I own.

valley_parade · « **Reply #33 on:** 04 Dec 2007, 05:40 »

Dookie.

camelpimp · « **Reply #34 on:** 04 Dec 2007, 05:59 »

I don't technically, legally own Thriller. Does it still count?

KharBevNor · « **Reply #35 on:** 04 Dec 2007, 07:30 »

Why are all you guys such tools?

Looking at lists, probably the least rare thing I own is Dark Side of the Moon on vinyl.

Beastmouth · « **Reply #36 on:** 04 Dec 2007, 08:08 »

I'm pretty sure I have Thriller somewhere, or maybe I just have the 45 collection. If it's something else, I guess either Bad or, hmmm, The Beatles?

I think I read somewhere that it's the one album all record stores seem to have like 10 used copies of because nobody liked it when it came out. I got mine used for something like $2 because they had so many...

Dookie.

And International Superhits.

Weezer's Blue Album.

License to Ill, maybe?

There's also that "1" album that they put out with all of the Beatle's number one hits on it. The red one? Yeah.

Ballard · « **Reply #39 on:** 04 Dec 2007, 09:09 »

The Beatles 1 (got it when I was like 10 for no apparent reason)

ABBA Gold

Led Zeppelin IV

Marneus90 · « **Reply #40 on:** 04 Dec 2007, 09:26 »

The album I own that is not rare in any way shape or form...
You guys will kill me for this, but Linkin Park's Hybrid Theory. Or possibly one of the Muse albums which aren't technically mine but I still have them in my CD collection.

25+million worldwide. I have a copy someone burned for me.

Thriller. It keeps the party going strong. Nothing like a room full of people chanting "Mama-se, mama-sa, ma-ma-koo-sa"

Jackie Blue · « **Reply #45 on:** 04 Dec 2007, 12:03 »

Jagged Little Pill has sold as many copies as Sgt. Pepper's?

Holy mother of God, what hapenned, did Alanis give away free blowjobs with every copy?

mostlyharmful · « **Reply #46 on:** 04 Dec 2007, 12:19 »

Dark Side of the Moon for sure.

Probably Thriller, but it's not on the shelf. So I lost it.

Lummer · « **Reply #47 on:** 04 Dec 2007, 12:25 »

Justin Timberlake's "Futuresex/Lovesound", i guess.a
