    And listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
    Send me off forever but I ask you please
    Don't fence me in

    Remember you can only vote in Thread 1 or Thread 2, not both.

    It is not necessary to post as to why you voted the way you did, but it would be interesting to the rest of us.

    With this poll I had to leave off the last 4 albums to maintain our limit of 20.
    You may still vote for any of those albums. You will just have to vote in the form of a post rather than clicking on your favorite. Your vote will still be recorded.

    Those 4 albums are:

    Earthling
    Hours...
    Heathen
    Reality

    Also I did not include the Tin Machine albums and they are not eligible.

    I did vote for Aladin Sane I might have changed that had I noticed one could vote for Heathen ( certainly his best since Ziggy)

    I'm confused, as there are no votes for Alladin Sane.
    But I did record your vote for Heathen.
