ah bugger. yes you are soo above popular culture with your new order listening and method acting.

just because something isn't your cup of tea does not necessarily make it wrong. although i actually don't like Bon Jovi, I won't call their fans idiots, which is basically what you are doing here.

USA Best Selling Albums of All Time

OK, Ron. I may have been too harsh on Bon Jovi fans. He can sing, but he sure can't act. Take U-571, for instance. Anyway, here's the link for the American version of the best-selling albums. I wonder how both countries compare.

Oh Wow I have like 60 of that top 100 in The USA-YIKES
